I get pretty excited about everything or at least interested. Life's to awesome to be apathetic about it!
Same here. Or at least if I feel like something is draining me mentally, I'll go in search of something that's new and different, you know, make an active search for stimulation.
I could always find something of note in most anything, except for this ONE class I had to take - it was a humanities class, subject: the history of technology. I thought that sounded a bit broad but very interesting, and since I was required to take it, I didn't think it would be a bad thing.
I was so wrong.
The woman they hired to teach it was awful, the subject matter was so stupid and watered down that for the first time in school, I felt like I was losing IQ points. Most of us felt that way about the class - my buddies from the garage fell asleep (most likely as a defensive measure to protect their brains - though one of them drawled in confusion, "WTH is this?!") The only reason I made it through that class without setting a fire just for some action was my eNTP punk friend who kept winking/nodding at me across the room, raising his hand and running the teacher in circles with silly questions.
I owe him my cognitive function.
Yeah, I feel the same way most of the time. It's like a "tell me something I don't know" type of thing.
I love to learn new things! My mom brought home some crazy books from the college library. They're clearing out old books (1920s- 80s), and some of the titles were strange but interesting, like "The Social Scene of Small Urban Spaces". Also, some dusty old thing called "The Age of Invention". And a very very bad historical novel (Mom got it because it looked terrible, and apparently Mom and I share a love for really bad unreadable literature. ahah!)
Quiet, you!
