I Refuse to Be What Everyone Wants Me to Be

I'm Me. Next... People it seems to me often like to pidgeonhole everyone they know neatly into categories but unfortunately for them I'm a bit random really so they never really 'know' me to the point where you can read me like a book.
It doesn't help that I take great exception to any attempt to get me to do something that I haven't bought into emotionally, because I really fail to see why you want to control me in that way. Like I can decide to do my own stuff in my own unique way that makes sense to me and hey! it's only my gig anyway! My family are pretty bad for that stuff. Also I'm full of contradictions like wanting to plan everything to the last detail but at the same time have spontaneous happenings occur when everyone else saying "what about this, this and this"? It's really no wonder I love the Haruhi anime as I can see her traits in me.
I've also had issues with disability and racial stereotypes being passed my way -'you're X so you must be like Y' "You're white so you can't enjoy that" and all I can say is... (visualize two finger salute)!
Just be yourself and have fun.

OH! I know what you mean... I hate stereotypes like that. I get it all the time. And you're so right, my friend, there's something seriously WRONG when a person wants to control and change you to suit their idea on how you should be. I always say that what works best for one person, or is their truth, that's for the individual. It's not an idea that fits all. And one person's "truth" may be another person's "lie". So, always be yourself and ignore the critics. You're right, it is your gig after all. ;-)
