internaliser

My female owner is having one of those days when she feels that she has no frens in Brisbane. She felt really stressed over her school work and almost didn’t want to go for dinner with her church friends. She only went (reluctantly) because someone was going. But grouch was written all over her face.

Dinner went ok and she cheered up somewhat.

Going home, she was taken aback to see that her housemates are having a house party with four guests (but that’s ok). What shocked her was that the male housemate and the other guys were smoking.

Does anyone realise how much she hates smoking? Esp in her house (mental note for female owner: another reason to move out). The lingering smell just sets her off.

And what made her night worse was that they persuaded her to hang around and socialise with their friends. My female owner hates being thrown into such social settings. In addition, she already had plans on how she wanted to conquer the night with her work. Being a good sport, she spent an hour with them, playing table games (and not drinking with them, I’m proud of her!), until the neighbour called out to them to get them to keep quiet coz of the late hour. Saved by the neighbour!

All this while, she really wanted to call someone or even leave the house to meet someone to talk. Alas, there was no one. No wonder my female owner is an internaliser, she doesn't open up to people when she is upset.
