Story telling

I was reading a friend's blog, and she said:

"有沒有試過遇過些朋友, 喜歡"知少少扮代表"? 或者聽東西聽一半便自以為了解事件的全部? 自己很多時都討厭那些自以為是的人, 認為甚麼也知道, 憑著那少少線索, 就推斷整個過程."

instantly, I know I am this kind of person. Not the "知少少扮代表" part (this part I am not intended to), but "聽東西聽一半便自以為了解事件的全部". I tend to create the whole story behind to link up every single piece of things seem to be relating to the story, and after the process I would belief "that's how it happened". So to me I always have a complete picture, but no idea which parts were the fact and which parts were created by myself. My story sometimes evolve when there are new clues come up, but most of the time stick to the original plot unless the new one is more charitable. Unfortunately my brain cannot leave unlicked pieces floating around, so it always create some intermediate linkage. That's part of the reason I say I cannot tell thoughts and reality apart.

Apparently, instead of "this girl thinks too much", this behaviour would become another story in other people's eyes.

It is interesting to see that myself actually identify these phenomenon, but have no control on them. Like I study other people, I am studying myself all the time as well.
