U all can call me Sherlyn(Lyn) and I'm from Singapore.. :) I'm a girl who gets involved in exploring foreign cultures and I can speak a bit of basic Korean and Spanish, still in the process of learning Korean and Spanish.. xD Actually, I have different personalities sometimes, upbeat and cheerful, moody, sentimental and feeling lost in some situations, can be very friendly, caring, encouraging, understanding, helpful, patient and inspiring in every way towards people who know me and new friends.. But it usually depends.. I have had some bad emotional experiences which left me kinda hurt before.. I don't really place my trust in everyone nowadays, only those who are really reliable and faithful.. I'm a bit cynical at times due to some unpleasant things and I have changed much more than before in order to protect myself more.. I find overseas people even more interesting and encouraging in the ways they keep on inspiring me always, which is the coolest thing I have ever experienced.. Yeah, but I still adore my local friends as well because you guys are still close to my heart in rhytmn and beat.. ^^ I absolutely love inspiring music, especially punk pop, electronic, techno and trance music!! I have lose faith in long distance relationships after my 2 long distance relationships have already ended.. :(
