    *huff* *huff*

    Anyway, I always stuff myself with things to do. If I do get bored, I go and do something else.
    That's funny, I thought my post would be met with anger and hatred. Glad to see an offensive post of mine wasn't, for a change. I'm talking about my posts on the internet in general, here.

    Uh oh, now my post's at the top of a page. Maybe it will be. o___o

    Honey, you just quoted yourself

    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    I approve of quoting oneself.

    Boredom isn't something that I particularly fear. If boredom comes over me, I can always retreat to the world of my imagination. That is one area of my life that I have control, and ideas for stories spawn there. I always manage to find something to do when I have a chunk of freetime. I'm content with reading a book, going to a coffee shop, and find quiet environments pleasant. It's more of a sense of annoyance than fear if anything.

    With the opposite extreme of too much excitement, that can be a mixed bag. I do like doing things that I consider fun, but loud noisy environments, or too much of a risk factor makes me a bit nervous. With boredom, you have more control than with the opposite extreme.

    Particularly when having to talk about subjects that I don't find so interesting, or partaking in activities that don't interest me to be polite.

    boredom is a lack of stimuls
    should be more often met at extraverts. introverts have more developed "inner world"

    people get the most positive impressions from superid
    then ego functions interests and where they have more means to organise an activity
    without this they may feel a boredom
