Okay let's see..something good something good...I guess my creativity that spreads across all aspects of my being. From my sense of humour to my art to how I can think outside the norm or being able to see things from seemingly infinite angles. Because of this I rarely feel bored.
I do however become overstimulated quite often because of this same thing. Constant ideas and opinions flying at me. So much information to take in all the time!
Like mentioned in another post how they can experience music in a way not everyone can. I also feel and truly experience music to a point of overwhelm and I never know when it'll be a good or bad reaction because I have a really hard time realizing I am overstimulated until I crash.
You know that's really true. There's always ideas and stuff floating in my head, and it's hard to grab one and focus on it because I like them all.
Most heard phrase: I didn't think of that. How? It was the first thing I thought of.
