I definitely get energy from being with people and feeding off their creativity - theatre. And, I need quiet time to process and work at my own speed while doing some of my writing or music making. Music is like that, too.

My test came out just about even in all catagories...and the counselor in charge accused me of not answering correctly because "no one scores that." Years later I retook the test and my scores were the same...and the professor said that a small percentage of people actually do score evenly. I is for interesting :)<br /><br />Happy A-Z April!Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06295499795085860012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-5801107796885615972012-04-10T13:01:10.300+10:002012-04-10T13:01:10.300+10:00I am an introvert and proud of it. lolI am an introvert and proud of it. lolPatricia JLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17582005500429122486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-37154710314937190172012-04-10T12:22:54.176+10:002012-04-10T12:22:54.176+10:00Hi Charmaine,

It all made sense when I discovered Myers-Briggs, and their definition of introvert/extravert. I quickly get exhausted in company and need my "alone time" otherwise I feel like my brain's frying.

So while those of us in this time zone are still on "H," she's on "I" already. No rules broken. Everything's fine. :)<br /><br />I'm an introvert, and I think you're correct to question the accepted understanding of what an introvert is. There was a recent article written somewhere that says introverts can be quite comfortable giving presentations and doing things not normally associated with introvertism. I think you hit upon the real core of what defines an introvert: where we draw our energy. We don't need to be around people, and can feel uncomfortable in crowds. We tend to look inward, and value our "alone" time, gaining strength from time spent in solitary activity. I think this is certainly one reason why writers tend to be introverts. Writing is a solitary experience.<br /><br />Great post, Charmaine! And well done for getting past week one of the challenge! :)Colin Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292997431935215499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2774506789160968096.post-68834491751650879592012-04-10T03:37:41.389+10:002012-04-10T03:37:41.389+10:00I'm an introvert and proud of it!
