Lahna Jensen

Lahna Jensen is the epitome of an introvert. A fun-loving girl, she lives with her mom, dad, and three sisters. They love to mess around together and all-in-all just have a lot of fun together. Same thing goes for her friends. 

 

Lahna Jensen loves video games, sci-fi, fantasy, reading, and drawing. Although many people who like things like that are very outgoing, Lahna is the complete opposite. Lahna stays to herself in school and is very quiet around everyone except her friends and family. She says it’s because it makes her uncomfortable to talk to people, especially when she doesn’t have the same interests as someone, which is most people for her. 

 

Some introverts wish they were extroverts, but not Lahna. She says that she couldn’t imagine being an extrovert. It would mean that she would probably have a lot of friends and people would be more open to talking to her. In her opinion this is a bad thing because she would never have time to sit down and quietly draw or read. It could also allow more drama into her life, which she tries to avoid. She’s fine with the few friends she has that love her. 

 

There is really only one thing that upsets her about being an introvert. “If I’m in class and I have a question then I’m too scared to ask and just end up confused,” she says. Of course with the good always comes a few bad things, but she knows that and loves being herself.
