I always believed that introverted people are very passionate. Others often tag them as hopeless romantics, geeks, sometimes stupid, because they seem to make impractical decisions that go against norms and mainstream thinking.
I am interested in many things- mostly, artistic. I love writing poems, especially when i feel down and frustrated. I dance (and I'm sure I could have been a good dancer if only I wasn't too scared to get into a freakin' dance class). I tried doing animation but it's a long shot and i had to focus on my studies so I stopped. Right now though, there's one particular interest that I want to pursue and it has something to do with my social phobia and depression.
I never thought before that I'd want to become a psychologist. When I started college, I didn't really know what I wanted in life, so I took business management. Why not, that's what everybody else does. Besides, that's the most practical degree program. You can apply anywhere after you graduate. The world is run by business, people say. But there was one time in my life that made me realize what I really wanted to do.
Something terrible (my own "sociophobic" definition of terrible) happened at school one day and I was so upset. I felt empty and alone. It was like sinking in a mud pit without anybody to pull you out. It's horrifying to find yourself in that situation. The fear and pain is overwhelming that any struggle seems futile. But right then, I realized that it's not likely that I'm the only person going through that hell. I took some comfort in that thought. But it also gave some me sense of responsibility. The responsibility to be that person who pulls them out of the pit. So after I've earned enough money, i'll get a master's degree or a double degree in psychology. And nothing can stop me (unless of course i die before it happens).
