On #introverts being misread as "unfriendly": "I'm not unfriendly... I just don't wanna talk to you right now. Which are two totally different things! Holler at me in 3 hours!" 😉👍🏾 ~@evelynfromtheinternets #teamintrovert . For real though, I'm okay in SOME settings but for the most part, this me. 😏 Even if I'm actively being social, this is me in my head! 😂 So, should you see me chillin in the cut at an event, I'm not being antisocial, unfriendly, nor do I think I'm "all that"... I just need a minute. Lol! 😘 . 📷: @joe_chea (at Stanton Social)

#TeamIntrovert: 5 Posts on Staying Sane as a “Quiet” Person

#TeamIntrovert: 5 Posts on Staying Sane as a “Quiet” Person

If you’ve been following me on social or keeping up with the blog, you’re aware that I’m proudly #teamintrovert. Being an introvert is an integral part of how I experience social aspects of my life. I’ve also written about how my introversion when affects my professional life. Socially, it’s still confusing to some people what we’re not just shy people who hate the company of others. Sometimes…

PSA:

You may have noticed a significant drop in my R6 fanarts lately, and here's why: my work in progress folder still has two doc's adventures already sketched and I have some more ideas but I feel like I'm having a R6 burnout. The community is very demanding, trying to link my other works to R6 or blatantly ignoring them to ask for more R6 content.

I have made so much fanarts those last 3 years, almost as much as Destiny when I've been playing Destiny for almost 6 years 🤯

I forced myself to draw more content to get those numbers rising, feeling like a failure when a non R6 fanart piece I worked hard on and was proud of got me a followers drop. (Big bummer)

So I tried to do more R6 even when I didn't want to, ending up in a burnout, and for what? Followers count don't play bills, likes don't change into euros and in the end I'm just pressuring myself for people who barely interact with me 🤷‍♀️

(people who share whatever I draw, Anno, Red Dead etc, who comment every time, I see you, and I love you. People on my discord as well, even those who silently like every tweet/pictures, I see you and I appreciate your silent support as well 💕 #TeamIntroverts).

So I decided to follow my heart instead of the numbers. As you may have noticed, my happy place during this pandemic is Red Dead 2 because I'm a huge fan of both games, rootin an' tootin', you know the drill (Rainbow, bring back Showdown pls, it's YEEHAW therapy)

I'm not saying I'll stop drawing R6, that's never going to happen. And I've been trying to gather a team to play those last few days, didn't work so far, but I remain confident.

Doc's Adventures will go on, I just need a break 💕

I don't think anyone's mental health is in the best place right now, so I think you'll understand.

A Night at the Park

(Picture by Paisley Park)

So I like to go to Minneapolis this time of year, every year. I was waiting around for an event whether it be for PRN Alumni or otherwise...and then saw Paisley Park announce a live music concert, an EP release party by a one Nooky Jones. I hadn’t heard of them before but upon seeing the promo for it, I booked as I love the sound (and didn’t REALLY need that much of a reason to get up here anyway).

So I got VIP for this as well as an Ultimate Experience tour while I was here to see what had changed since my last ones.

I won’t rehash the tour and will actually let Chuck Earling explain what goes down as it was the same experience. I will say there were a few new things since my last Ultimate tour like P’s driver’s license circa 1997 or so, the My Name is Prince vest (love the low budget way it was made lolol)...and handwritten Soft and Wet lyrics in a spiral notebook from yesteryear. Also shout out to Heidi the tour guide! I love having guides who did hang out at Paisley over the years to bring the personal touch and stories to the experience. 

If you didn’t catch my quick debrief while leaving Paisley, check here! TLDW : Asked about Celebration 2020. They said it’s definitely happening, but they weren’t sure when yet.

Okay so fast forward to the Nooky Jones event.

As a VIP ticket holder we were allowed into the NPG Music Club room before the event to meet the band members and have a drink.......

Yes. THAT kind of drink.

Y’all know how the purple bubble gets upset when such things are mentioned. For the record though, from folks who had private dinners at Paisley, wine was often served there by Prince, especially in the later years. It seemed to be more of a licence/liability thing as to why it wasn’t at parties than a hard no morality thing. Much easier to manage when you’re enjoying a glass or two with a few people you trust to act responsibly vs a few hundred!

Everyone that I saw was very respectful at this event. No one sloppy drunk. No drinks allowed near the couches or artifacts. Everyone did a great job adulting and respecting the space! 

After a while we were invited into the soundstage where they had P’s clothes set up timeline/runway style on one side of the room, his Bently, BMW Roadster, and Prowler in another section, a stage set up for The Gold Experience/Emancipation clothes in another section, and a Piano and Mic stage in another section (all of the artifacts were on elevated stages about 4/5 feet high and behind velvet ropes as well for their protection). There was also a DJ playing here with party lights sweeping the floor. It was a great vibe!

Some people danced, some talked, some sang along with the music, some checked out the displays around the room...and of course the merch store was open...a lot to do while waiting for the main act! (Again bonus points from me for #TeamIntrovert you can just keep to yourself and have your own experience if you want and feel entertained!) 

Nooky Jones took the stage without too much waiting around and they were fantastic! They did their own music as well as covers of other soul songs (and P too!)

Check out their EP Like Candy! It’s available everywhere!

Toward the end of their set they opened up the NPG Music Club again which I was grateful for. I went back in there to sit down in the quieter space. Super appreciate that that was an option! 

As the main show ended, folks who did that VIP package migrated back into the club room as did the DJ who spun a mix of Prince and other artists. Haha Lizzo, Bell Biv Devoe, Bobby Brown....maybe the running man happened? Maybe it didn’t. Overall it was a good test run as Paisley Park as a night time adult music venue! I remember standing at the back of a packed soundstage, looking around at everyone having a great time, looking at the silhouette of Prince in the moon hanging on the wall, looking at his symbol glowing in the corner, listening to real musicians playing real music with real instruments and I couldn’t help but tear up. My heart was so full to see the tradition Prince started of showcasing talent continuing on while he oversees from the spiritual realm.

I hope these events continue and that they will be as well supported as this one was! Sold out! It super helps when they announce things well in advance so that people can plan and budget to be there! Week of tix to Minneapolis are close to 1k each!

Only complaint : Real food please! Due to the lack of late night options in Chan since Perkins closed, it would be good for people to have food as an option for these events as well! Also, does it realllllly have to end at 11? Was just getting my second wind and it was time to go! Haha...

(Also if you guys bring back the concert screenings and announce those well in advance in a Concert/Party combo, that....would be amazing.)

"Life begins at the end of your comfort zone." ☛ Stepping out of your comfort zone is hardly easy, especially when you're #teamintrovert in a field that requires networking and, well... speaking to people! 😄 But had I never gotten over myself & continued to do what felt comfortable, I would've never been able to host TWO successful hair & beauty events working with some of the best stylists & brands in the industry or had any of the awesome opportunities I've had over the past few years! Ya gotta put yourself out there. Nothing's gonna just be handed to you. **Work hard. Be kind. Stay humble.** (at Prospect Park Audubon Center at the Boathouse)

[from-a-book-never-written]

"The thing about love that is returned, is that it's fearless. Some think this is great because you feel as though you can walk through fire without getting hurt. The reason it's not great is because most of the time requited love turns into unrequited love while your standing in the flames, and all of a sudden you start burning" -excerpt from a book I'll never write #4
