Living As An INTP

-
As an INTP I experience a hard time when it's about making new friends. New friends, new environment, I am not used to it.
Maybe I am the least favourite, if I asked my closest friend about their most favourite friend rank.
INTPs tend to be underestimate or misunderstood. Maybe that's what I experience.
Maybe they just don't like my topics,
Because
I love talking about politics, my friends mostly don't.
I love talking about economics, my friends don't have any interest on that.
I love arguing about a theory, my friends mostly do not read what I read.

Or

Maybe they don't like the responses that I give
And I realize that I'm a little bit sarcastic sometimes, when they are talking nonsense without delivering facts.

Maybe they don't like my facial expression when I respond to them
Yes, it's true that sometimes I show "i don't like you" "dumb question" "lame" "what is that?" clearly on my face. I'm not proud of this.

Maybe they're scared to talk to me, afraid that they will say something that will pissed me off.
But believe me, I rarely get mad at someone, especially my friends.

They underestimate me. Maybe they think that INTPs are so big-headed and only think about themselves. But we don't, I don't. I just want to share what I learn and try to deliver my thoughts about anything.

Can I change my personality?
Or
Can I just step out from my comfort zone?

I love my self. But I'm in a dilemma whether I should remain and stay in love my self or turn to someone who meets people's expectations. But, maybe I'm not the one that is wrong and I'm just living in the false environment. The one that doesn't suitable is the environment, not me. So I should move to a place where I can find someone with the same thoughts as me.

Oh
There was once upon a time when I stepped out from my comfort zone, being fake.
I'm fake when I smile to someone even that person hurt me.
I'm fake when I pretend to like someone even I don't like their personalities.
I'm fake when I try so hard to fit to the society I don't really fit.
I'm fake when I act so nice to the person I don't like.

Above all, I don't want to be stubborn so I want to change to be a nicer person.

One person who listens to my stories and gives smart responses is enough. That's more than enough. But it's hard to find my perfect match. I may be boring or such a philosophy to the people around me since they don't understand me.

The dilemma of a 23 y o girl, with minimum wages, and a big dream.

-
Kemarin waktu main games, baca quote kurang lebih begini ‘if you quit, what are you going to live on? If you work, when are you going to live?’ Hehehe. Gatau sih cuma aku doang atau orang2 lain juga mengalami. I am currently 23 y.o working in a big company, which locates in a big city. Living a mundane life: wake up at 7, work from 8.30 am to 5.30 pm, sometimes until 9.00 pm, sleep at 01.00 am, and repeat. It’s sooo boring. I used to be a big dreamer. Want to take master degree, live overseas. Have an adventurous and joyous life. But here I am, trapped in a mundane days for about 8 months. What kind of life that I want? If I may choose, I want to wake up happily in the morning, calmly get my coffee and breakfast, do different things each day, travel a lot, read book at 9 pm while drinking green tea, and ready to sleep at 10 or maybe 12, without wondering my financial things. Hehehe. Who doesn’t want that kind of life? Rasanya pengen banget travelling somewhere, belajar banyak hal, meng...

Becoming Freelancer; Joining Upwork

Halo! Udah lama banget ya ga pernah nulis. Aku mau menepati janji pada diriku sendiri. Jadi, since the beginning of the year, aku mulai tertarik ingin jadi freelancer. Gara-gara pandemi nih, jadi terbiasa di rumah. Rasanya enak gitu, di rumah aja. Keluar kalo penting aja, cari makan atau entertainment. Awalnya, aku nemu postingan di FB Group Backpacker International. Isinya nyeritain pengalaman sebagai Digital Nomads. Asyik banget, mereka tetep bisa menghasilkan uang dari rumah sambi keliling dunia. Jujur, sebelum ini aku ga ngeh kalo ada niche pasar ini! Dari baca komentar dipostingan itu, ada yang bilang kalo platform pertama dia adalah Freelancer. Jadi aku coba deh register di freelancer. Tapi, belum sempet selesei registrasi aku nemu ulasan di blog mba Indri (https://www.indriariadna.com/) kalo Mba Indri lebih prefer platform Upwork. Setelah baca-baca beberapa postingan Mba Indri, aku memutuskan buat join Upwork. Tapi, hey! Ternyata join Upwork tidak segampang yang kukira HA-HA. Ud...
