That was an honest question. No pun intended, at all. I admit, I’m a guy who really cares what others think about me, and some recent events really got me thinking… who do people see "Peter Zhang" as?
For me, I always see myself to be a very optimistic, nice, nerdy and tech-savvy person. Not much of a talker, but I suppose I can listen. Really bad at athletic, knows piano… but definitely nowhere as good as some other peoples. But most of all, I’m a guy that really cares about friends.
When I first came to ICS, I thought this could be a chance to “re-brand” myself. Surprisingly it did work. All of a sudden, I’m known as the “piano player”, “Crocs fan” and “the one that lives in Shenzhen” (and possibly others that I don’t know of as well?). I really don’t mind being recognized that way, I mean, they do truly identify me after all.
But I want to be way more than just those. No, I don’t want to be just the dude who you call help from when you face a problem, be it math, tech or directions, but somebody that you can trust, somebody that you can share things to, somebody that you can truly befriend with.
Am I too selfish? Maybe. Am I missing something? Possibly. Am I being too arrogant in demanding something that I don’t deserve? …who knows?
