Intensity

I have come to realize that I am a rather intense person.

Everything I do, I do with passion and fervour. Current example: I am writing my masters thesis literature review. Maximum of 5,000 words. My notes alone are currently over 4,000 words, and I have 9 articles and 2 books left to review. <.<

My emotions are also all very intense, I'm just very good at moderating (read: hiding) them. Perhaps that is why people who know me well can see them. It's not dissimilar to putting ones hand over a flashlight. The light is still there, if someone knows where to look. I don't turn them off, I just don't shine them in people's faces either.

I have no idea what this realization today has to do with anything, but I felt the need to share.

Side note: synonym for intense = afire, or ablaze.

...I'm so calling 911 and telling them that OMG MY HOUSE IS INTENSE!!!

What are you writing your masters thesis on? And I personally feel that intensity is good for something like doing a masters. You'll be driven to finish, even when you are tired of it.

Shame and its impact on students desire or motivation to go to school. Specifically 11-14 year old's.

Thanks for the encouragement!
