How would your friends and family describe you?

My family and friends would describe me a someone who likes to laugh and make jokes. But mostly to laugh at almost any of their jokes. I also think that, to their eyes, I seem a little strange sometimes. As a matter of fact, I tend to speak out loud the stupid ideas that come in my mind without thinking.
There can be a whole period of time during which I don't give any news. They are probably irritated about that behaviour and they would say that I am sometimes a bit 'depressing' (frustrating ?). Although I generally avoid planning activities myself, I am always up to meet them whenever they ask me. In think -- and I hope -- that they find me nice.

Corrections

My family and friends would describe me as someone who likes to laugh and make jokes.

But mostly tI'm someone who laughs at almost any/all of their jokes.

This sentence would be considered a sentence fragment, which means that it doesn't contain both a subject and a verb. By adding a subject, it could make the sentence correct. You could also connect it to your previous sentence. I gave an example, but if you have any questions, please let me know :)

I also think that, toin their eyes, I seem a little strange sometimes.

In American English, "in their eyes" is a way of expressing or reporting someone's opinion. We have another expression "up to (someone's) eyes," which would mean that that person is extremely busy with something (up to my eyes in work) or that they have a lot of problems to deal with (up to her eyes in debt). However, perhaps there are differences in usage from country to country.

Both depressing and frustrating could work here! Depressing means that you cause other people to feel depressed (sad unhappy) , and frustrating means that you cause others to feel frustrated (a little angry, discouraged, annoyed).

Well done! Most of the corrections I made were very small, but if you have any questions, please let me know. Fantastic job!
