About Me
Hi, my name is [insert your name here]. I’m from [insert your hometown here]. I am [adjective 1], [adjective 2], and [adjective 3]. For more information, my friends know me best/just look at my testimonials/add me and you will know more!
Social networking is such a boom. These websites give you a space to blurb or boast about yourself. Some of my friends have a “template” for this “About Me” section. Saves the effort, said one of my friend. Hmm. Reasonable. Not in my case though. In every of these websites, I would have different “About Me” blurbs. Let’s check them out…
Friendster
I was a quiet and reserved kind of person. However I like public speaking. I love talking in front of many people and they’re looking at me. There’s a certain challenge and satisfaction to make them keep looking at me. As seen in my interests part, my lifelong passion include music and writing. It keeps me happy. I’ve been listening to music and writing since I was young. Also, I love to keep in touch with new things, especially technology. It’s fun. Period. After 17 years in Jakarta, Indonesia, I decided (with so much struggle) to move to Singapore. Much smaller, but I didn’t regret it. I’m pretty much very present online. Just ask me about other social networking sites I’ve joined and websites I’ve built. I’ll be happy.Ha ha. visit http://www.mygreyworld.com
People say I’m friendly. Yet I don’t think so. I might be fiercer than you thought. Me still tries to keep up with people’s expectation. “Be yourself” is such a bullshit.
Hi5
Me? Hmmm… I’m juz a simple person, not an outstanding type. U might have met me without knowing that I even exist there…
Myspace
I’m quiet. I’m loud. I’m reserved. I’m open. I’m here. I’m there. I’m this. I’m that. I’m pretty much everything you can think of. Mix everything and you will get a mess. Like me. Nah. Kidding. I’m a fun person for you to befriend. Trust me
…….. But would you trust strangers?
Orkut
You might have come pass me without noticing.. Ya that’s me stupid!

Gue? Hmmmmmm……… Apa ya? Gua sendiri ga tau… He… Hm… Mungkin gua itu.. orang yang selalu pengen ngliat org laen seneng, meskipun kadang2 gua jd ga seneng gara2 itu. Terus… Gua suka musik (banget!), suka maennya juga. And then… (Kata banyak orang) gua orang yang suka ga jelas. Bisa bgini, bs bgitu juga. Jadinya ya susah mendeskripsikan diri gua… Udah ah, pusing kan? Gua juga pusing mo nulis apa lagi… Hehehe… (no I don’t want to translate this coz it would humiliate myself :p)
Live Connector(I bet you don’t know what it is)
Well.. Apa ya? gw cw 16 taon, kls 3 ipa sma, demen banget baca buku, demen main internet ama kompie, chubby, long-haired, jayus…
Yang jelas, you can tell anything to me. I can be a good friend and a shoulder to cry on.. Soalnya gw ga mau ngliat org lain sedih.. I will make everyone smile..
Gw suka nulis, dan sekarang lagi suka blogging. Yang mau liat silakan di http://sylvdoanxsmz.blogs.friendster.com… Tolong dikasih komen yak…
And last but not least, I am loved by GOD.. I know it and I can feel it… (And no, still no translation for parts you don’t understand :p)

Multiply
I was turned down, but got up and stay strong…
(some websites might not be listed. Gah. I joined too many websites)
Out of these numerous websites, the most updated one is my Friendster. Well, because it was the first decent “About Me” I’ve set up and I constantly update my interests, favourite books, favourite movies and all that. For other websites, I always copy-paste from my friendster.
I guess what I write on the “About Me” section depends on my mood. Haha. Some of them are really gloomy (oh emo me!). Some of them are quite normal. Some of them seem quite happy. Haha.
Trivial, I know. I’m really really bored. I know I should check out my project, but I dunno…. Something is really filling me up.
Signing off.
(btw, yeah, I don’t put links to my social networking site page. I don’t want any strangers adding me up. I’ve had enough of them. And yea, I haven’t updated my age in blogspot’s profile. I don’t use it anymore though)

my fav would be your myspace’s “about me”. i like to do it the way you did it there. say A say B say C say D etc… then say its a joke and finish it off with an invitingly mysterious question mark =DDD
btw, did you receive my fs message?? i gave you my cellphone… anyway, im back home, since this morning. we should really meet up the next time im goin there (don think its goin to be anytime soon tho -__- )
have a fabulous week, babe
