PARTIES ARE A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME AND I HATE THEM.
I'd rather be doing something worthwhile with my day. |

| For Myers-Briggs my typical score for "Introvert" is 85-100% As for being into my own thoughts, well I use "I", "me" or "my" just a smidge too often and almost always direct the conversation towards one of my special interests. |

A Special Education teacher might be a good choice. How about language? An entry-level editing position might be the r... |

| Even if you do love her. Love you first. Exactly. It's like I said on page 1, for the first time in my life I am actually comfortable with myself, even though I may be outside societal norms.
