i read it! i read it! lol, just thought i should let you know... im a bit of both i spose...sometimes i thrive off other people, but other times i just want to be alone...depends really...meh, ill just be whatever, im not fussy... Spiffy! But Ginny P, I have tons of energy and I talk a lot, but all the tests I've taken put me as an introvert. One actually had the percentages of how much you were, and I was an introvert by something like 22%, which is pretty solid, but I have a lot of extrover qualities, as well.

You guys might not believe it, but I'm actually pretty shy. Except if I'm someplace where I'm comfortable, or if I'm with at least one or two people I know really well, than I'm not shy at all. If I don't know anyone and I'm at a new place though, I'm really quiet, and, yeah.

I'm really really not shy. I could probably use a lot more "shyness" though, I probably scare people lol.
The only time I get shy is when people compliment me a lot. I hate that, because for some reason it makes me feel even more self-conscious. One of my most embarrassing moments was when my teacher read one of my stories out loud to the class, and she adored it and kept going on and on about how great it was, and everyone was like, OMG, that was so good! How do you write like that?? And I was really really mortified, I could have died. I have no idea why I do that, does that mean I'm messed up or something?
Anyways, my entire family is extrovert, really. My mum and I are the worst, we always like to be in the middle of everything. You should see us together...one time we were at McDonald's, and she ordered all our food with this ridiculous hick accent, completely with a straight face. I almost DIED laughing. Then when we were leaving, she went to throw a milkshake out the window into the trash can, and she missed and it smacked the statue thingy of Ronald McDonald and splattered ALL OVER him and the restaurant. We were in shock, then we just started laughing hysterically until we noticed a cop nearby, so my mum hit the gas and we floored out of the parking lot, so she wouldn't get a ticket. Then another time we went to ask this lady for directions, and she was collecting for some political party and gave us one of those little American flags. I stuck it in my mum's hair, and dared her to go in a store and announce to everyone that "There's only 17 more days until the Fourth of July!" and she DID it! Yesterday she, Collin and I were at McDonald's in the drivethru, and when we got to the window she had Josh Groban's "You Raise Me Up" blaring, and she was singing it really really loudly in this faux-operaish voice. The girl at the window was laughing so hard her boss came over to yell at her. Then Collin decided to follow me through the store pointing at me and announcing at the top of his voice that I was his sister. I tell ya, we really are a bunch of eccentrics, my dad is the most serious one and even he walks around the house singing all the time (he has a dreadful voice) and making up songs about skunks. My older brother is just weird, but my sister is annoyingly normal. She's a banker and she's always serious; she hated HP and LOTR! Anyways, now you all have an idea of the sort of family I come out of, lol.

^ ah! i love walking around in public and yelling random stuff! (lol, i can so imaging these 2 people walking through mcdonalds, one of them wearing round glasses and pointing at a girl saying'Shes my sister, yep, thats her, my sister...' ROFL! I'm so weird : Per example; yesterday i was in the city with my friend in the main mall, a big open one, and their was a hippie sitting there playing his banjo, busking. I said 'Oh, cool, a hippie with a poncho!' (it was in a god way, a compliment; hippies are cool!) and my friend goes 'Don't be so loud, Alison' and i just yelled 'WHAT?! BE LOUD?! IS THIS BEING LOUD?! I THOUGHT I WAS WHISPERING!' she nearly died of embarassment; was hitting me and everything, telling me to shut up, so i yelled some more 'I DONT SEE WHY YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YELLING! WHATS SO WRONG WITH IT?!' by this time everyone was looking at us, so she pulled me down a side alley and we ran away laughing... we're so silly...and then we came to a French Connection store, and walked in, but i grabbed my friend in the doorway and said loudly 'Why're we in here? We don't have any money, and we'll never be able to afford this expensive crap anyway.' It was like in a movie, when everyone stops and looks at you, and the music pauses, lol. My friend just rolled her eyes and pulled me away, everyone thought we were mental, bagging their beautiful beautique (sp?) hehe, i like being stupid. all my friends and i are eccentrics...one time we went into the mall (the open aired one) took a picnic rug and sat in the middle playing cards. 'Twas quite fun.

Oh, that all sounds so fun! Too bad I end up being the one telling my friends to shut up when they're being loud in public places. I don't mind when we're at school, or someone's house or something, but when you're walking around downtown alongside people in business suits...

lol, me and my friend, we always say hi to ppl when theyre driving. oh, i have a story about that!
we were saying hi to random ppl, me and my friend, and we said hi to this one guy and he stopped and turned around and pulled up into her driveway so we ran inside and hid in the closet bc we thought he was going to have a gun or something. he kept ringing the doorbell and we didnt answer (only her sister was home) so then he called her house. Her sister answered the phone and it was actually the guy coming to fix her stairs. ;D

^Lol, that's hilarious! This one time, this guy was coming to paint our front door, when I was home alone, and my parents forgot to tell me, so the guy just pulls into our driveway, takes our front door off its hinges, and stays there for a few hours painting it with his radio blaring and all that. I was upstairs in my room, like right now (I think I was actually on here at the time...), and my window faces the driveway, so I was able to see him and stuff. Anyhoozles, so for awhile I just stayed up here, trying to be really quiet, and then I called my mom at work (being really quiet, cuz I didn't want him to know I was here for some reason), and she said to just stay in my room if I wanted. And then I was getting really hungry and stuff, so while he was on his cell phone, I crept downstairs and made myself a sandwich, and then ran back up. And after awhile, he left. Then, a few minutes later, he calls to leave a message about the door, and I pick up.... So then he's like, "Hi, I was just painting your door...but I guess you knew that..." and I was like "yeah..." Hehe, I've grown up a bit since last year.

LoL...a week ago me and a couple of my friends were going to this pool, and it was overflowing with stupid clones of teenagers that were like four years older then us....so we just started skipping down the side walk with our arms linked singing "were off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of oz, because, because, because, of all the wonderful things he does!!" REALLY loudly... Everyone was staring at us...lol.

Argh, today my mum and my brothers and I went to Pizza Hut, and we were telling Jem about what my mum did at McDonald's, and they decided to re-enact it. My mum got a taste of her own medicine, but I was embarrassed too. Everyone just STARED at us. My mum made them leave the restaurant, it was terrible.
ROFL, and HPMad, I will NEVER go shopping with you...but OMG, I should do that next time my mum and I go shopping on Fifth Avenue...

Omg, you guys are crazy... I'm a total introvert, I'm really shy around everyone, especially people I don't know. But I don't even talk a lot around my family and friends. Once my brother started yelling at me because I was so quiet at dinner (he's an extrovert.... I think he was just trying to get me to yell back at him, lol). All my friends are extroverts, they do tons of crazy stuff like you guys... I'm always like, "OMG WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" LoL, what would they do without me...?

Well, I'm in the middle... I talk a lot and I'm the center of attention in front of my friends... but, around other people I dunno... I prefer for them to do the talking and I be a good listener ;D ;D Funny situation... I was w/ my friends at school and we were talking about a party we were gonna do and warning me not to attract the police... again... *sigh* and people behind me were easedropping and they were all saying... "NO WAY... DAVID WOULDN'T EVER ATTRACT ANY POLICE... HE'S WAY TOO QUIET!!!!" And my friends all started laughing, "Heee, David's forced parties to end early because of police 3 times in a row, now" (fyi, all 3 for being intoxicated in public and disturbing the peace... the last 1, also, for something else... but that's a lil' embarassing and we won't go there) You know, I could never understand people who are afraid of other people. I mean in social situations and whatnot...what are they so afraid of?? I personally am shy around people that I don't know b/c I'm ***afraid*** if I talk like I'm a friend around some1 that turns out to be a jerk, people might associate me w/ the jerk...
