^ Zone of stimulation. That's interesting.. And stop the madness for constant group work! Haha. I guess introverts have higher chances of "succeeding" because we're the leader type. Finally, a good reason to be an introvert.

Sarap kaya mag-isa. Ayoko ng bisita sa bahay. seryoso. Parang naiinvade yung personal space ko. Tsaka mas keri ko mag mall mag-isa..walang gugulo sayo kung ano mang titignan mo o bibilhin mo. Pag may kasama kasing friend nagmamadali o kaya hindi naman niya trip ginagawa mo.

tsaka madalas tahimik lang ako. Mas trip ko pang kabonding yung alaga kong pusa. Everytime binibigyan kami ng 15-20 minutes break sa class..lalabas yung mga friends ko ng campus para kumain or mag yosi. Ako magpapaiwan lang talaga..kahit anong pilit andami kong dahilan. haha

Introvert here. I like the quiet eh  Naiirita ako pag sobra dami ng nakapalibot sa akin kasi ang ingay,lalo pag sabay sabay nagsasalita. I do socialize, but very minimal.

^^ same tayo,px17! Apir! mas maganda manood ng movie alone, at mag mall alone kasi you can go about it at you own pace.Malas lang pag napaupo ka sa tabi ng mga maiingay na magbabarkada

Nasabihan ako ni hubby, I should go out more daw, make more friends,but I'm the kind who believes making friends happens by destiny,mas nate-treasure ko pa friends ko na hindi from school/work/field/social circles ko .Masaya na ako with just him and the kids, occasional get-together with relatives.I don't view my being an introvert as a shortcoming. Pinaka productive time ko pag I work alone on creative things like planning parties, learning music, baking...ayoko ng distractions of chatter!

[px17]

@bluegintonic same na same tayo sis. If ever aalis ako gusto ko with bf lang or family. pag tapos nga ng class ko Deretso uwi ako sa bahay.

Lalo na kapag birthday ko..ayaw ko nagpapa party. Pero yung mga hs at college friends ko ang kukulit lagi akong sinusurprise sa bahay. Alam mo naman palayasin ko diba. Kaya pag magbibirthday ako nireremind ko na silang aalis kami ng family walang pupunta. hahaha

^ Bagay sayo ah. Nagkakarpintero ka pa naman. Hehe.

Ask ko lang sa mga fellow introverts, what's your profession if you don't mind me asking? You can be as general as you want. I'm just interested to know where the introverts are lurking in the "real" world.

[explorer]

Currently, I lead an IT department. Also into freelance software development and hardware design.

Can you believe I'm a nurse? as in, sa ER? Wahahaha! as in sa work I have to be super duper social. Okay lang, hindi naman pama-mlastik siguro yun kasi part ng job. When I was still single and living alone, parang major sigh of relief pagkauwi ko sa aking tahimik na flat.Masaya na ako with just my cat for company. Right now I'm a stay at home mom, and it's just me and the baby most times and even now I need time alone (as in walang baby, walang hubby) which I crave desperately!

Hindi naman siguro ako bipolar or may split personalities but I'm known as life of the party pag panahon ng party but aminadong introvert at heart. Katwiran ko minsanan lang naman mga ganung events (as in sa work place bihira naman talaga makapag-party eh).

[jtansanco]

^ Baka naman you're an extrovert to start with? Until you got the calling that you're meant to be an introvert? Hahaha joke. But wow, ER nurse... The blood and all.. Nung bago ka ba or if may bagong nurse dyan sa ER, nasusuka ba kayo pagfirst-time niyo makakita ng internal organs? May friend din akong nurse and pinakita niya sa akin picture ng tinanggal nilang eyeball.. Nightmares... Hahaha

[vainwriter]

my job is as introvet as one can get i do design and sales online. from inquiry to delivery everything is online. pag may deliveries si hubby or staff ang pumupunta. we do have a small resto pero mostly si hubby and partners and naghahandle ng external affairs. i do the paperwork lang   sure i have worked in offices, even in the media, but the longest i stayed is a year. i even resigned from one job because my new position will require me to do field work with diff schools which i did not like at all

i know alot of introverts na may social jobs. some of them were colleagues in the media before. ganun talaga siguro if you want a certain job or if you have no choice then you just do what you got to do.

[jtansanco]

^ Perfect job for you. Everything's online! Haha. Can I ask what type of products you're selling? Is this an online shop or you have a retail outlet pero ikaw naghahandle ng online sales?

[vainwriter]

crafts mostly for events it has crossed my mind to put up a real store, pero nung nasubukan ko sa resto hindi ko yata kaya. nakakaubos ng energy tumao sa store and socialize with customers. i feel im more at ease pag email or text transactions hehe

[jtansanco]

I see. Yeah, ang hirap pag-retail. You have to manage the store. If you let the staff manage, you have to trust them the money naman so mahirap din. Nagstart na ba yung taxation for online sales? Grabe na talaga government e.. Lahat na gusto i-tax.

No naman, wala naman akong kinatakutan...hahahahaha! even as a student nothing was so yucky for me.bakal yata sikmura ko eh hahahaha kasi may mga kasamahan ako ayaw magbalot ng recently deceased and ako madalas magbalot hahahahaha! No choice na minsan you have to be very friendly and sociable. Hindi ko rin siguro carry mag sales sa physical store, I won't be a very convincing sales person hehe,at least as a nurse lalapit lang sila sa amin pag may sakit sila and half of the time in pain na kaya no need na to be so sociable

[vainwriter]

^^they havent started tracking down yata but im not worried bevause ive been legal all along. may clients din kasi who ask for receipt so we registered na lang to make way for bigger orders. hahha ot na

^sabagay if you're a nurse standard naman  yung gagawin so the level of socializing is still professional unlike if you're in an office o store

[bluegintonic]

^kaya nga hindi siguro ako uubra as an office worker.ER ako kasi like ko yung ma-action na buhay (hindi naman lahat sing-drama ng ER na tv series, may boring moments din ). Ayoko rin sa ibang department. Masarap feeling ng after ng maingay,ma-action uuwi ako sa tahimik na bahay

Saya naman work mo, bagay sa persona mo,online lahat ...yan din gusto ko I-try pag medyo lumaki laki na si baby para hindi ko na need siguro bumalik sa pagiging nurse.Mahirap maging full time mom tas may maliit, wala pa naman kami maid...

[vainwriter]

^hehe matagal kong pinagisipan yun, kung panu ko makakawork nang hindi masyadong may interaction, and yung maalagaan ko din yung son ko. binubully pa ko ng husband ko kasi lalo daw akong mabuburo nun, wala na social life tapos sa bahay pa work. eh nagclick yung naisip ko kaya ngayon tinutulungan pa nya ko hehe. pero advantage na extrov sya kasi naoffset nya mga limitations ko. but i tell you if you enjoy your career as a nurse ituloy mo lang sis. napakahirap magsolo. wala pang benefits :-/
