But I've got a great... personality

I just took an online self-esteem test and I was shocked at the results. After answering forty questions, here's what I got:

You seem to be struggling to make the most of the REAL YOU

According to our scientific analysis you are currently tapping into 34% of your self-esteem potential.

The REAL ME? That's funny, I thought I was already the real me. It's almost as if they're implying that I'm the evil clone who couldn't live up to the full potential of the original. It's so science-fictiony. But I thought about it more, and the results definitely struck a chord. As a young gay asian/hispanic catholic male who comes from a military family, I still find it hard to have a lot of self-esteem. Perhaps the media is to blame with all of its adverts that feature young and skinny boys with pouty faces. Maybe it's because I never bought into all the fads like the flipped-up collar, the faux-hawk, or the huge goggle sunglasses that all the gay boys wear. Still, 34% seems pretty low... considering how far I've come since high school.

In my defense, I do my best to tread the fine line between humility and conceit. The world is full of posers and heartless phonies, and I just think that it's more attractive to have substance. But 34 percent? I'm just bothered by that. I'm so bothered that I just realized that this post is going absolutely nowhere.
