How Do You Know If You Are Interesting?

Everytime I meet someone new, I quickly think of a list of the most interesting things to say I've done. That list is quite small. I mean, I've only done a handful of what I think are exciting escapades, like my vacations to Cuba and Mexico. Other things that I thought were interesting was snowboarding (everybody's snowboarded or ski'd at least once nowadays) and playing an instrument (a ukulele, currently still bad at it). But if I met someone who told me what I just told you now, i'd be like "Hey, that's awesome! Did you do any excursions on your trip? What songs do you know how go play?".

Maybe I am just sincerely interested in other peoples well, interest. When I have a really fond memory of something, I'll tell somebody it passionately as if i'm reliving that moment. I think that's why I get a positive response when I say it so therefore making me seem more interesting. To put it in reverse, I could say "Hey man what's up?", and get a cliche response, or I could say instead, "Hey! What's going on?! Have I met you before?!" Maybe that's a bit too much, but you get my point. 

I learned that sometimes it's how you tell a story or how you introduce yourself that makes you a more charismatic/engaging/bowl of delight (jello, like jello). If that fails, you can just keep talking and hopefully something you say ignites any kind of spark of interest in the unfortunate chap (or chapess, unfortunate chapess sounds right). Just take this advice or lack of advice, as a reminder to just be yourself. Yes, perfect ending.
