Awkwardly Introverted

So, as an introvert, the world honestly feels like it’s constantly on fast-forward, with way too much noise and way too many people trying to talk to me all at once. Like, can we just slow down for a second? 🤯 This quote—"Introverts just need their world quieter and less crowded"—hit me right in the feels because, yeah, same. It perfectly sums up what it means to recharge and function like a normal human without feeling like my social battery is permanently dead. 🔋💤 Being an introvert isn’t about hating people (seriously, I don’t hate people... most of the time 🙃). It’s more about trying to find some sort of balance so I don’t completely short-circuit. Crowds and chaos? Not my thing. At all. They’re energy vampires 🧛🏾‍♀️, and before I know it, I’m desperate for some alone time to just think and exist without anyone trying to interact with me. Quiet spaces are like magic ✨—they let me breathe, focus, and maybe even find a little creativity without all the noise of the ou...

  Hey there, fellow humans of the internet! It’s me, the awkward, introverted, slightly chaotic queen 👸🏾 behind  Awkwardly Introverted ! 🫣✨ Let’s be real—I’m rusty as hell with, well,  everything . But you know what? That’s okay because this little corner of the internet is my happy place. I’m not here for followers, clout, or world domination (yet); I just want to give you something to read and (hopefully) enjoy. Introverts, unite! But, you know, from a safe distance... preferably behind a screen. 😂 If we’re being honest, I’m severely awkward and introverted in real life. Like, I’ll think of the wittiest, most brilliant things in my head but can never quite get them out vocally. It’s like my brain and my mouth aren’t on speaking terms (ironic, huh?). But here? On this blog? I am QUEEN. 👸🏾 Hear me roar—or awkwardly whisper because roaring is a little too much. So whether you’re introverted, extroverted, or somewhere in between, welcome to my blog,  Awkwardly In...

In today's world, we're always "on." From the constant notifications on our phones to the endless stream of tasks on our to-do lists, it can feel like we're running on empty more often than not. But the truth is, sometimes the best way to recharge isn't by doing more—it's by doing less. It’s about unplugging from the unnecessary things that drain us. I came across this beautiful image of a battery filled with a serene beach scene 🌊. It instantly made me reflect on how important it is to disconnect from the things that weigh us down. We often think that staying connected all the time is the way to stay productive, but in reality, it can lead to burnout faster than we realize. Imagine your energy as a battery, just like the one in the image. If it's constantly powering things that don't serve you—whether it's stress, toxic environments, or even an overwhelming schedule—it’ll deplete faster than you can recharge. But when you unplug from those ...

Update: Finally, the idiots next door decided it was time to go to bed. Rejoice! But seriously, have some common decency and turn down your music if you’re not ready to sleep. No one cares about your music but you. Absolutely no one. On a different note, I’ve found that blogging is really therapeutic for me. I’m not great at voicing my thoughts, emotions, and feelings out loud. My brain never stops—constantly filled with loud thoughts and endless chatter. Writing helps me get these thoughts out and find some happiness and relief. Being introverted, I tend to live in my books and in my head, often replaying past conversations and thinking of things I could’ve said differently. 🤷🏾‍♀️ This blog might be random and all over the place, but it’s my space to lay down my thoughts and ramblings. I’m trying my best to come out of my shell, even at OMG 😱 36 years of age. It’s hard, but I’ve realized people suck ass. They’re horrible—maybe I’m just not lucky enough to find the good ones. Except...
