Type A or Type B?

The other day when we were having our social paychology tutorial class, we had come across an interesting topic, aggression.

Our tutor mentioned that there were 2 types of people in this world in the psychology context, type A and type B. At this point, please look deep down and see if u are that type of person whose more prone to aggression.

Type A: impatient,excessively time conscious, insecure, highly competitive, workaholic, drive themselves of deadline, unhappy about the smallest delay.
Type B: patient, relaxed, secure, easy going.

Well, for those who know me well, it is obvious that i am type A, pure type A. As my tutor mentioned those characteristics one by one, i grew uneasy and gradually depressed. It sounds so bad like I possed all those negative vibes and theres nothing i can do about it. Then one of my classmates said, " Miss, won't those who are type A lonely?" my tutor kinda missed that part but she did hear this," Miss, but those who are type A are resposible and confident." i was glad that that classmate said so , i am glad that someone said that type A still have their positive side.

I was starting to hate myself. I have an arrogance and desire of being superior than everybody else or so said my mom who said that she had the same characteristics, and according to her she still has them but supressed. I tried to change, in exchange for friends.

Change, according to almost everbody, was for the better but for me its a burden and i'm tired about it. When my brother was borned, i changed to become a big sister. When i was left out by friends during primary, I changed to fit in. Secondary school, I changed to gain achievement and now in university i have to change again, to fit in again, to achieve again and for many more things to come...

I am tired of changing, for better, for worse...
