I won't lie... I'm in the bad habit of dressing trendy and making funny jokes and being good at cooking for a crowd or doing artwork seemingly effortlessly- and then telling everyone "oh I just picked this out of the closet in the dark and threw it on" "oh I just thought that up" "oh I just experiment with food sometimes" "I was only doodling" and really it took me sometimes a few days to come up with it.... haha
So I guess you could say I carry myself like someone with talent and personality that came naturally (even though it didnt always)?

The outfit and hair in my pic was my dbay look so I could go eat at the fancy restaurant behind me... I took off work at 12 that day and went up to the city and got all that done before the dinner so it seemed like I did a mini makeover on the fly... but I arranged for the day off and the appointments and the outfit like weeks before it.
Trying to seem like I have it together effortlessly, takes alot of effort

I want to respond to the second question now

How does this affect my life... it does, in major ways. I had to learn to seclude myself from others, I had to learn to fall madly in-love with people, and I had to learn to detach myself just as quickly. I had to learn to ignore people, I had to learn to entrap others... my life has become so many wild tangents that I'm so far from where I thought I'd be (ever).

I learned to govern, to rule, and to humble myself to others. To discern people of interest from ordinary people and people whom have no sense of justice, to narrowly put a scope on some aspects.

It has, indeed, affected my life; but, I wouldn't have it any other way

I have always had fairly low self esteem but was taught to pay attention to posture and always smile. I believe that "carrying myself" as though I were confident has given me more confidence.

On another note, I was always warned not to show off my female anatomy and to act/look/dress provocatively. I think this caused me to be subconsciously aware of hip movement when I walk. I never noticed until my now-fiance told me that I waddle. I have no reason to waddle, I just try not to move my hips. I'm still working on this, but a lifetime of waddling is difficult to overcome.
