Most people often ask if you're an introvert or extrovert, and there are some who know me as the introvert, but at work, most people think I'm an extrovert. It's only after reading this article that I realise that I'm actually right in the middle.
I read this a while back and wanted to blog on this but just didn't find the time. It was only because of a few recent events that got me to the blog and clicking on the article again. After what has been happening recently, the article just helps figure out the reason why I probably feel like just hiding in a cave.
Point #9 sums up what has probably been getting me down:"People that are involved in a lot of drama are completely out of your interest range. You don’t enjoy talking negatively about others and you’d rather avoid people who do."
Lately, there just has been too much drama and badmouthing from certain people. It all feels as though there is also some motive behind all this drama and negativity - to sway certain decisions, to try to gain opportunities for themselves.
Point #1 and #4 adds to why I have been bored:"You can hold a conversation for the most part, but small talk doesn’t keep your brain engaged in the conversation.""small talk is not important to us. It makes us more uncomfortable, especially when the conversation goes nowhere"
The worst part of the drama is that it is unnecessary, not wanted and not understandable as well. My brain has gone to the point where it has decided to shut down whenever the drama starts and I think I just zone out while everything is playing out.
Point #3 then explains exactly why I feel like hiding in a cave:"If you spend too much time around people you are dying to get back to the comfort of your own home."
Basically, I need my "me" time. That when I have a day to myself, I should get to decide how I want to spend it. So for the next few weeks, there will be a lot of rejections and I honestly would not care what or how people feel, as in the end, I have to save my own sanity first.
Now to get a my old sim card activated.
