------------------------------
I would prefer to spend time with friends as far as possible. In this essay I will elaborate on my viewpoint.
Mankind is social creature and one must learn to live among society and not aloof. By staying alone one becomes introvert and none seems to care for him or her. When one is with friends, he or she can interact with them and vice versa. We learn many things by interacting with friends. Friends occupy positions of extreme importance in our lives. Often it can seem as if they are more important than our parents even! Friends can have great influence over many of us. Our choice of music, movies, clothes, boyfriends or girlfriends, classes, jobs, and so on. In some cases, it doesn’t stop here; it also covers the personal standards of behavior, school or university performance or business performances, morals and values. This makes it especially important for us to make good friendship choices.
Introversion is "the state of or tendency toward being wholly or predominantly concerned with and interested in one's own mental life". Introverts tend to be quiet, low-key, deliberate, and relatively non-engaged in social situations. They take pleasure in solitary activities such as reading, writing, and drawing, watching movies, listening to music, inventing, and designing. An introverted person is likely to enjoy time spent alone and find less reward in time spent with large groups of people. They prefer to concentrate on a single activity at a time and like to observe situations before they participate.
In conclusion there are no rights or wrong for being introvert or extrovert, it is solely a matter of choice of an individual. However I enjoy being in company of my friends most of the time.
