This is a little bit about me: Joe Sabatino. Well the first, and most obvious, thing about me is that I have no clear concept of time and responsibility. I already missed the deadline for this blog. I am very absent minded and go about life thinking about too many things at once. It seems the harder I try at specific things, the more things I leave out. The things in my life I think I am good at and deserve my full attention tend to fall in that opposite direction. I make jokes at things I don’t understand and I hate confrontation. I do, however, take responsibility for my actions and am not ashamed to admit when I am wrong (which I am proud of). I over exaggerate sometimes, maybe because I like to make things more interesting and appealing. I find myself bored a lot so I have to keep myself busy by moving or playing with objects that aren’t mine. I doodle in class, and that takes about a bulk of my notebooks… besides this class, of course. I have a few fears, such as crowds and going to the bathroom in public. Although, I am in the theater so I am very personable, I think. I am not afraid to be in front of people or approach people. I love my family and I am very close to them all.
I was never really good at talking about myself. In fact I find it one of the hardest things to do. When I asked one of my good friends, Colleen Kelly, to describe me in one sentence she said, “Joe Sabatino is a charismatic, funny guy with a good heart and cares more for people than he lets on, except for his family, which is his backbone.” Now, besides the family thing I would have NEVER been able to identify those other things about me. I will say that I am very reserved with my feelings. I let people know I care about them, but in my own way. I don’t wear my emotions or my thoughts out on my sleeve, and I know there is a time and a place for everything. I will let people know when I am uncomfortable, or I don’t like them. The one thing I hate is when people patronize.
This is officially one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to write. It’s not that I don’t like talking about myself; it’s just that I find it hard to find things to talk about. I think I’m pretty boring when it comes to things like “who I am”. I could talk to you for a few hours strait about my opinions on different subject, my agenda for the day, recipes but I am at a loss of words when it comes to writing about “me”.
