Does This Explain Me?

I've never been keen on believing web quiz results, but maybe this one answers my questions of before?

You Are 50% Extrovert, 50% Introvert
You're a bit outgoing, a bit reserved
Like most people, you enjoy being social
But you also value the time you have alone
You have struck a good balance!

Introvert vs. Extrovert

I've long since had the struggle within myself about being extroverted or introverted.  While I was at school I was the quiet, boring and not really featured girl.  I guess I had my moments of loudness amongst my friends, but I was never a public speaker type person.  I hardly ever landed in the spotlight, and the only time when I did, I was dancing, and usually in a group, so this was different.  I wasn’t exposing ME as such, as dancing doesn't expose me as a person.

I don't know if I like being exposed as a person.  Sometimes I think I do, I like discussing what I believe, what I like, and I love blogging.  Randomly discussing topics which interest me.  But there are areas of me which I would rather not discuss.  LOL.  No offense intended, but with certain things I become extremely private.  You may find it strange that its not with things such as sex or the usual.  Instead its more the kind of things about me which I do not like.  My weak points.  I don't think anyone likes these to be exposed, but I think I might be a bit abnormal.

Now to get back to being extro / introverted...  Sometimes I feel like I need to be the loud mouth spotlight type person which I can only truly be in my imagination, and with my husband.  But when I end up in a group of strangers I am the most uncomfortable person I have ever seen.  I get nervous.  My palms go sweaty.  I go very quiet, and when I do say something I usually stutter or mix up my words.

Its for this reason why I love blogging.  I can't stutter if I get nervous, and though I'm quite comfortable now, I still struggle to find the right words at times.  Here I can "backspace" and correct myself before (or after) posting.

Still I'm struggling to know who I am really suppose to be.  Are we ever "Supposed" to be anything, or is it just what we make of it, and what we make of ourselves?

Ugh, I don't like being philosophical, but I guess we all get moods like this....Don’t we?

Names & Indimidation....

Gosh, when I visit other blogs I always wonder how on earth people become, or just ARE, so very creative. With the naming of their blogs, the themes, their content. Sometimes I feel that I lack so much. LOL.

Every time I've started a new blog, it took me forever to think of a name, and even once I chose it, it still sounded dumb. Still sounds dumb now. Which makes me think about something else.... Naming children. I wonder if you ever regret naming your kids whatever you name them. I know that sounds a bit mixed up, but I'm sure you get it. Anyway, I don't have a CLUE what I would name my kids one day. But its still a while before we start with that, so I'll just wait till then...

Damn I moan a lot, dont I? I heard yesterday that aparantly people are scared of me... WTF? I'm rather harmless considering that I don't have much muscle, and I don't keep any weapons with me ... Permanently in any case... But aparantly people are scared of me, in the way that they won't just drop in for coffee and a quick chat as they think that they might upset me... Now I'm wondering what I did to give them this impression.

Yes, I do have my own way of doing things, and most of the time I'm pretty adament about it, but I'm not so bad that people should be scared of me, or am I? Does being a perfectionist make me THAT intimidating?
Mmm... I need to work on that, and improve a bit. Maybe invite some friends over for a social, and then they might relax a bit. Damn, I never want to scare people... rofl, except maybe kids, if I was a school teacher... Tongue out

What impression do you get from me. I know the web isn't a very accurate portrayal of one's personality, and perhaps you might be too scared of me to be honest - lol. But for what its worth, give it a shot?
