The Me That is Really Me


This post is all about one thing: me. Seeing as I am the one who will be leading you all on this (mis)guided adventure, I deem it fit that my readers know who I am. But surprisingly, explaining who I am is not so simple.

As with everybody, we have these different variations of “me” that we portray depending on who we are with. People act differently based on different groups of people. One group of friends may see me as generally cool-headed (which can be true) while another group of friends may see me as silly and energetic (which can also be true). Certain factors influence how we act and BLAH BLAH BLAH. I don’t want to bore you (though I do find it fascinating that we put on these “masks” in order to connect with different parts of society). BUT without further ado, I present to you: ME!

My name is Zac. I pride myself in being a very artistic person. Whether it be acting, playing guitar, song writing, poetry writing, etc; I love it all. I’ve been acting for 9 years, playing guitar for 6, and as for the rest, who knows how long. I’m a bit of a geek. When I was younger I had my whole “OMG VIDEO GAMES” phase. I still hold on to a part of that past, but not so much. I go to Humber Lakeshore College located in Etobicoke, just southwest of Toronto, Ontario. There, I am taking a Creative Advertising degree. I LOVE analyzing media and advertising (both ads themselves and the brand ideas behind them). In fact, I only started this blog because of my Social Digital Media course. My favourite two movies are Pulp Fiction and Fight Club. My favourite books are Water for Elephants, Life of Pi, White Noise, The Outsider (also called "The Stranger" depending on the translation), Catcher in the Rye, Fight Club, and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. I’m a hopeless romantic (as the title of this blog suggests). I’ve always been one for human connection and whatnot. If a girl steals my heart, I wont be shy to write a sappy love song and try to woo her. I love life. I love everything about it. Even in times of pain (and trust me, those times come too often), I always try to find the simple joys in life. I love drizzling rain. I love taking long walks alone on a cool fall night. I love Batman. I love expressing myself. And I love love.

So that is me. Not the me you would necessarily see if you first met me. But the real, pure me. I hope you enjoyed learning about me. Feel free to comment if we have anything in common! It would be fun to connect with some people with common interests. SO ANYWAYS, thank you for reading! OVER AND OUT!
