Obsession with Blood.

FYI, I'm not a vampire ; ]

Cultural differences are amazing. If you ask any Japanese people, you will more likely get the answer of what blood type they are. Almost all Japanese are aware of their blood type! "Beginning in approximately 1930, the Japanese embraced the idea of matching personality traits with one's blood type. This phenomenon is as popular in Japan as the idea of matching horoscope with personality is in the States."

Seriously, I don't think I've ever met a single Japanese person who doesn't know his/her blood type. If you check out Japanese actors/actress/singers' profiles.. they list what blood type they are. Everyone knows it. Everyone also "believes" his/her actions and behaviors are due to their blood type traits. I sometime think we are brainwashed about how each blood type is "supposed to" act. Consciously people know the blood type traits.. and without thinking about it.. we act like them?! I'm sure if we didn't know the general idea of each blood type, we wouldn't act like what is written. It's just my 2 cents.

Anyway! Back to my obsession :3

I was even crazier about blood type back in 2000-2003ish. I happened to have SO MANY type AB friends and they started talking about: "If there is one AB person, they tend to gather unintentionally!" It was true though. I started asking around all the Japanese people at my school.. 2/3 out of 30ish Japanese people were AB. They seemed to know a lot about their own traits. It fascinated me so much and I wanted to know more, especially about AB. One of my best friends is type AB. She told me she's a typical one.. I don't exactly know what a typical AB is. She said an AB person is very two-faced in a good [?] way. They are extreme, love or hate. The majority of her friends were either AB or O. She said without knowing... she became friends with people who all happened to be type AB. Maybe they say they are two-faced.. because of their extremes?! I really don't know. I forgot.. which one.. Either A or B, AB can't get along with at all.

Can you guess which is my blood type?

Just in case if you are curious about the general ideas of each blood type:

Type O: [ O is most compatible with O, and AB ]
Type O's are outgoing, and very social. They are initiators, although they don't always finish what they start. Creative and popular, they love to be the center of attention and appear very self confident.

Type A: [ A is most compatible with A and AB ]
While outwardly calm, they have such high standards (perfectionists) that they tend to be balls of nerves on the inside. Type A's are the most artistic of the blood groups. They can be shy, are conscientious, trustworthy, and sensitive.

Type B: [ B is most compatible with B and AB ]
Goal oriented and strong minded, type B's will start a task and continue it until completed, and completed well. Type B's are the individualists of the blood group categories and find their own way in life.

Type AB: [ AB is most compatible with AB, B, A and O <- IMO, not 100 percent true :P ] Type AB's are the split personalities of the blood groups. They can be both outgoing and shy, confident and timid. While responsible, too much responsibility will cause a problem. They are trustworthy and like to help others.

Your Inner Blood Type is AB!

Your personality is hard to define - you're very unconventional. And even if your personality could be defined, it would be completely different next week! Outgoing and shy, sensitive and thoughtless, you tend to have a very split personality. This makes you unpredictable. You can be a total angel - and a total devil. You are most compatible with: everyone! Famous Type AB's: Jackie Chan and Marilyn Monroe
