Am I immature?

It is the thirteenth week of our intensive English course. The theme of this week is personality and values which interest us much.

Today we have done many trials to figure out our personalities according to Mr. Mehdi’s instruction. One trial was to interact with one partner about mutual personalities. When speaking of my characteristics, one word Tingting gave is carefree, which gave me a great shock. Now I still can recall her explanation clearly. “Because you are so young that you look as if you had nothing to worry about. Moreover, you are always cheerful……” After listening, I had no words to say. Does young mean carefree and immature?

Later on, Mehdi said that I was easy to read, because all my feelings were reflected on my face. No words to say for the second time. What he indicated is apparent that I was not mature enough to learn to hide my true feelings.

Tonight I previewed tomorrow’s lesson. There was an article about the connection between colors and personality. I chose violet as my favorite color before reading. According to the passage, “The person who prefers violet wants to find a mystical, magical relationship. Both mentally and physically immature, you are stuck in a dream world of wishful thinking and fantasy. Often violet is chosen by adolescents who still see the world through fairytale eyes.” Totally no word to say! However, ignoring those words such as “immature”, “adolescents”, I marveled at its accurate description. Indeed, I desire mystical encounter just like what is depicted in novels. Maybe many of you know that I am fond of TVXQ, but you may not know that I often fancy coming across them and imagine how to impress them……

Anyway, I am growing happily, and I am old enough to consider something from the vision of an adult. Please don’t put the bonnet “immature” on my head.

  3. Do you think 'carefree' is a bad world? Because my friends always ask me why i am always carefree. Being carefree makes your life much easier,isn't it? I don't want to grow up, I like my life at this moment. I don't wish to rush into adults' world.

  4. In my opinion, carefree is a kind of attitude towards life. What's more, if being mature means hiding true feelings then everyone's life will be ruined!

  5. Repeatedly, a mature lady should not care about whether others think she mature or not. She might probably reflect on why people say so and how to change their opinion.
    On the other hand, I think immature is a kind of virtue that not everyone can maintain. Glad that you still keep it. Do wish you can stay mature for longer and longer.
