The desire for attention. What did you do to gain it?
Although the approach is uniquely different for everyone, the one thing that everybody wants is attention.
For example:
1. I'm writing up this discussion at this point in time hoping in turn people will give me their attention for putting in a comment or a feed back. Does the stuff you're gonna be writing matter? Will I actually read every single one of them and devote my time into thanking you for your comments?
2. One of the main reason I dropped out of high school was because I have a desire to be different. In turn, I ended up spending most of my spare time at my local magic shop reading and learning so I could be a magician! Teachers would always catch me red handed with a deck of cards practicing in my desk drawer while everyone is eager taking notes. Eventually I become known to the whole school as Matrix the Magician as I would hop cafeteria tables and amaze my fellow schoolmates. I remember this one time when I pulled my physics teacher aside and levitated my self in front of him as an attempt to debunk his lesson in Newton's law of gravity. =P
Now that I have your attention though, why don't you just go ahead and share some of your attention seeking moments?

Very interesting idea. I don't really know what I've done to seek attention before. I guess in relation to this site...by posting my photoshop picture I received a lot of attention and I made a lot more friends here because of that. I'm not sure :)

Thanks for the post MacBaby! I have a confession, it actually was your pictures that captured my attention. =P

Nice, as for me, I'm into IT and voice overs. More into IT by the way. Why did I write the last sentence ? See back home (Africa) and here I guess, people say one person's hand can't hold two things on the same hand, he/she will have to drop one. Did I get your attention ? :)
About the voice over stuff, I am really into that, check out some of my videos (more of practices) sometimes (www.youtube.com/user/icemanizaki)

LOL! Woohoo! My first time being featured on a website, I'm so flattered! Unfortunately, greed is also a part of my nature...If only I could generate some dollars this way...Now now, don't you all go check my web site at once, my ego might be my way of self-destruction. =P

One time I wasn't getting my way, so I took my shirt off and locked myself into a bathroom. I was also 3 when this happened.

Not really. It got me spanked and I wasn't allowed to go back to dance lessons.

Note to self; next time when I decide to take my shirt off, I do it in a public place or else I'll get spanked! =P
