TPBM
I do. In fact, the one ebook I have I have not read.[TY for remembering my type for me. Lol! ]
TPBM still listens to actual radio broadcasts not over the Internet.
Occasionally during the drive back home. I used to listen regularly when I was in undergrad. My college had a community radio station. I don't think the college I go to now has one.[Guy, funnily enough, when I've taken the MBTI, I've got both INFJ and INTJ interchangeably. Although I got INFJ a lot more than INTJ.]
TPBM wishes he/she had superpowers.
Nope. Quick shopping, fixed shoe, fixed computer, made breakfast, yoga -- ongoing.TPBM has been thinking of decluttering before fall.
Nah, I'm good. It's almost time for lunch, but I'd be ok with having to wait a little longer.TPBM has a suggestion of historical figures I could write my English paper on?
Indeed I do! I've been playing for years.TPBM wishes that they had longer fingers so that they could play a greater variety of piano music.
I don't know how to play the piano. I wish I did. But as of now, I like my fingers the way they are. [Angie, I'd have suggested Machiavelli. Too late now.]
TPBM loves writing on whiteboards.
[Thanks Deepak!]I know how to read music, but I really wish I was better at playing by ear.
TPBM knows others who can listen to a song and then play it on an instrument.
I did.[And may I suggest to Angie Marcus Aurelius?]
TPBM was surprised to learn that the movie Gladiator incorporated real historical stuff and people in its script.
[Thank you Guy!]I've never seen Gladiator, so I can't say.
TPBM feels accomplished when they reach an essay's word count EXACTLY.
I do, but I won't...stupid self-control always getting in the way of my fun.TPBM feels sad when they see how bad people treat each other in everyday life.
It is sad. People are becoming more and more selfish and mean these days.TPBM often wonders what it would be like to audition for American Idol.
No, as my talents do not lend themselves to public displays. I do wonder at the people who manage to find the courage to overcome their fear and put themselves out there.TPBM has binged on 'best-of' talent shows on YouTube.
Apart from TV shows and other funny videos, I have binged. I binge watch videos on YouTube basically.[Alex, no problem :). Also, chalkboards are the best. I agree. I said whiteboards because I have one in my lab. I doodle on that a lot.]
TPBM binges on chocolate to de-stress.
Yeah. All my friends find it weird and I even experienced the classic situation. I was with a few friends and a lot of their friends in a nightclub and the only thing I wanted to do that time was to go back to the dorm and write. TPBM likes listening to movie and game background music (OSTs).
Nope. But my work restarted today.TPBM spent time writing poetry instead of what they had planned to do.
Wish I did but I've been hitting some sort of writer's road-block lately.TPBM wants to share their homemade foods to whomever comes to their house!
Yes and no. I'm doing field work with Steve and so he's driving. TPBM is enjoying a slow but productive sunny afternoon.
I've got nothing planned, it's raining.TPBM actually likes rain because it's more reason to stay in and read.
We don't really wash the family car very often. They don't get very dirty here on Phoenix. TPBM is currently very sick.
Nope, but I have a sore knee with ice on it right now.TPBM will use books for things other than reading sometimes.
Yeah. But still working on homework. So the work is not done yet. Sigh.TPBM is going to pull an all-nighter.
I remember it like it was yesterday. Oh wait. It was.TPBM is grateful for days when they can go to sleep before 11 or 12 at night.
Yeah. More so today. All-nighter is successful and I'm running on coffee now.TPBM knows someone who is crazy about caring for animals.
Not really. Although that may depend on what it is one is currently situated in.TPBM enjoys, in moderation, baroque music.
Yes. I apparently do. I have a collection of classical music and I didn't know that what I listened to mostly were baroque. [Guy, that friend of yours sounds awesome!]
TPBM finds it slightly irritating when his/her friends don't follow their recommendations.
(Especially when it's a show that is really awesome.)
Yes, because who else will I have to share my interests with?TPBM also finds it frustrating when a friend tries something TPBM loves, but it's nearly as obsessed about it.
Not really. I am fully open to the differences that make the world wonderful and endlessly delightful and engaging.TPBM enjoys authentic chai tea, as opposed to that which comes in a teabag.
Yes, I really do. TPBM enjoys ice vanilla cream with half chocolate sauce and half raspberry coulis.
Yes, but mostly because I don't seem to have enough of it right now. TPBM would like to stop having to use eyeglasses.
Not really. As a city dweller there are many places that walking without shoes would be unwise.TPBM had a very late supper tonight.
Lol! Is that feet just after a shower or feet after a week long hike in the woods? And no I haven't as most cheese smells not at all like feet.TPBM bought cheese today to go with a pasta dish.
Yes, as I like to ingest goat's milk and cheese, and would like the opportunity to make my own!TPBM did something or tried something s/he had never done before today.
Normal day in school for me. Though I'm going to mess around with my phone camera so I'll know how to use it for a class project tomorrow. TPBM reads reviews on GR to get ideas for what to read.
No, but I *rarely* read reviews to find nooks to read. I just wait for them to call my name when I'm in a bookstore, library or yard sale. TPBM prefers earrings that do not dangle.
