"We live from the inside out."

It's Okay To Be An Introvert
Lifehack

Being an introvert is not a bad thing. It does not mean were snobby or antisocial. In fact, it definitely has its perks. You embrace the small things in life and are most likely a genuine person. And no, being introverted does not mean someone is quiet, lazy, or stuck up. Us introverts are just laid-back individals who are mostly home-bodies. We still have fun.

You have more time to yourself. Having time to yourself can be a rare to get around to. However, you’re able to have some alone time to yourself at least almost every day.

You can do anything you want to do. Being an introvert, you’re mostly by yourself at times. Which means you can do anything you feel. There is no one to judge, control, or even bother you.

You don’t have to worry about going out or impressing anyone. The only person you need to impress is yourself since you’re home alone anyways.

You have a small group of friends that you dearly love. A small number of friends means more to you rather than an abundant who might not be reliable.

You’re not always out partying. Partying is not your thing anyways. You would much rather be snuggled in bed reading a book or cuddling with your pets.

Netflix is the greatest thing ever for us introverts. Enough said.

You value the little things in life. You’re able to notice what really matters in life.

You listen more than you talk. Anybody is able to come to you and know that you will listen to them vent about anything. And nowadays, most people talk about themselves rather than listen.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.
