I realized the other day that one of my big reasons for blogging, is because I struggle to express myself verbally. I either can’t find the right words at the right time to convey my feelings, or someone interrupts me. I know I do it too, as do most people, but I’m sure I’m one of the more “interruptable” people. Whenever I’m in a conversation with more than three people I hardly ever get to finish my sentence, let alone story! You can probably say that its my fault because I just leave it after I’ve been interrupted more than twice, but I hate having to fight for a turn to speak.
Its for this very reason that I prefer spending time with fewer people in a conversation. I don’t mind big social events, but I’m not the type of person who thrives huge social events. I’d much rather have a quiet evening at home with fewer friends, and actually finish whatever it is I’m saying, than spending a night with a huge group of friends, trying to finish one sentence, and at the end still not doing so.
I know it may sound vain that I feel so strongly about finishing my own sentence or story, and yes, I do know that its important to listen as well. But I think I do listen, its just also nice to contribute to a conversation, and having people WANT to listen to you

Dizzydee,
I think I’m just like you. I prefer to be in a small rather than huge crowd. But then, I need someone to talk first to get me started. haha!
And I always have the same problem like you. Don’t know how to express my thoughts verbally, thus, end up writing a post for few hours. hehe.
How are you by the way? Long time didn’t catch up.
