I have a serious case of resting bitch face and am generally just not a particularly emotive person. When I was a kid, I got tired of people asking me why I was mad all the time or accusing me of not caring about things, so I started trying to emulate the facial expressions of my favorite anime characters (mostly from Pokemon) and basically tried to throw the same amount of exaggeration into all my reactions to things.
