I love this, it's not about getting the loudest or longest laughs, it's about using humour to connect with people and making your points memorable. Keeps things light, too.

"But I've learned we're not our personality assessments." THIS. This is actually what took 2 years and more of my teenage life to find out that I was not just what MBTI test told me who I was. I was not just an introverted melancholic depressed girl who loves overthinks stuff. I was not someone who couldn't go out there and being the first who initiated to talk first to stranger. I was not excluded from the society, I was excluded myself from them. I was not rejected. And I was not special, neither I was different. I am just a girl, who still finds out who she is, and willing to learn and explore more about her world. This is such a precious talk. I love it.
