I don't know much about Extrovert or Introvert but I did see it around the Internet. I never really bothered to look into what they mean.

I am a Introvert. I am a shy person, have been all my life. When I was in school, I was quiet. I didn't like to work in groups. I was also/still am that person who would ignore calls. If I meet new people, I don't what to say, I wouldn't know how to start a conversation or keep the conversation going. It just makes me awkward and uncomfortable. The only time I'm loud is when I'm at home with my family. If I don't like something I will say something. Just because I'm quiet, doesn't mean I got nothing to say.
I am that person who would rather read a book then go to a club. I like to go out to places like the museum, zoo, park, mall, movie theater. I don't know if this is Introvert or just mean but sometimes people get on my nerves and I think they are stupid. Some people do stupid things and that is what I mostly see in this world. I get annoyed quickly but I do have a sense of humor. I would rather work with animals then people.
I think the only time I am an Extrovert is when I'm with my mother or brother but after awhile I like to get away from them too.

You should definitely read Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking. It talks a lot about being an introvert, and how being an extrovert ISN'T better, which is something most people think.
ReplyDeleteIt's a really good read and it boosted my confidence about being an introvert :)
thank you, i'll pick it up next month.
DeleteI think I am an in-betweener, best of the both worlds I guess!

*nods* I have no problem speaking up and calling someone out if they mess with me, but for the most part I keep to myself!
