Won't stop, don't stop.
MODERN TIMING.
What have you learned about yourself today, Alex?
I like visual stimulation.
•I love to look at different things that make me think of odd scenarios and deconstruct social norms.
I don't like to be alone.
•I hate the thought of being alone, not relationship wise, but without people around me. That's why I like living in the city. So much stimulation from the widest variety of people ever. I don't like being alone in my apartment, either. Sometimes I'm more productive while I'm out working at a public place, other times I can't stop paying attention to the people around me.
I like change.
•I hate to keep things the same way. My mood changes and my needs change all the time, so I like my environment to reflect those needs and moods. My apartment for example: I rearrange something, be it the arrangement of my desks in my "office" to the whole entire living arrangement! I love to experience the nuances of a change of scenery right in my very own home.
I like to think about why people behave the way they do.
•Why does she get upset when someone asks her to do something that anyone else would do for them? Does she expect that they can do it themselves, and why should she have to? Why does she think she shouldn't? Can't she just be nice and think ahead of what other people want? Do I do that? Do I get frustrated when someone expects me to do something for them that they can clearly do themselves? is it my responsibility to do it for them? If it isn't, should I anyway? Will it make me feel better? Wil it make THEM feel better? Will they care? Will I care? DO i care? Should I just be nice? Maybe I should do it ahead of time tomorrow so they won't have to ask me to do it. Hrmmm. Should I try to anticipate the needs of others so they can be pleased at someone else's foresight and anticipatin their needs? Or do they just expect it and not care because they think everyone should pander to their needs. (think think think)
I like watching people.
•I enjoy seeing what others do and how they react to stimuli. Am I behaving in a way which is expdcted and appropriate in this neighborhood? Should I continue to act that way and just "be myself?" or is being myself, for Alex, adapting to other situations and fitting in? Is that my M.O.? to fit in?
I like being seen.
•I like the idea that someone may see me and want to meet me. or jus tlook at me. Eye catching. Back to building those elaborate stories, making up a little one minute fantasy in my head about the how's and why's of someone else which I'll never know the truth about.
I like making up stories about people in my head.
•one minute fantasies about someone that will never be known by me.
I like making mind maps and diagramming things.
•I am visual / kinesthetic. I like to do, but I also like to draw pictures that illustrate the ins and outs of what I need to accomplish. I follow that linear drawing to follow steps.
I can't write fast at all.
•I like to be detailed and thorough in what I write so I have to write out each word, and sometimes I can't tell what I Wrote because I'm trying to write too fast and it looks like scratch!
I had the most amazing discussion with an artist today, gave me a lot of insight into my thesis and my art, directions to explore and ideas to mull over. Wonderfullllllll. I seriously hope to be able to get together with him soon to continue discussing my thesis and product.
HAVING. A. FABULOUS. DAY!
