I have to admit... I'm a dreamer... I'll probably never get bored because I'm prone to let my thoughts fly and wander and make leaps into parallel/disjointed directions. I guess that's why architecture/design is such a good fit for me because it provides a natural outlet for my imagination.
Sometimes it can get frustrating, particularly when you consider the large gap/disconnect I get between my brain and my hands... I'm probably better off talking about it than drawing up the idea. But in my mind it clicks... and you can't blame the person you're talking to if he/she doesn't have the parallel processing to figure it out without the extremely detailed perspective/drawing.
Intuition and imagination are my 2 best friends/allies... I dream up of different places, people, conversations, friends long gone, traffic patterns, football plays, melodies/harmonies... I'd imagine how a song would look if we were to translate it into a series of photos... Flight, speed, depth, etc. I'd think up of characters/plot to write for a book/story... I'd try to figure out patterns in events, people's motives, expressions... I'd think of business plans... what concepts will work in the market...
Maybe that's why people find me aloof/stand-offish or just plain weird/eccentric... Yes I do live in my own intuition/internal world. But is it too much of a stretch for your imagination to think/feel that a dreamer like me can also be a warm emotional person as well?
