In The Hobbit, Bilbo is pleased with being "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all!" Most people wouldn't like that, wanting to see the world and have a big adventure. However, I don't like big adventures, prefering to hang out around my house with a few friends. I'm fine with being "quite a little fellow in a wide world", I could live my life like that and be happy. I wouldn't be happy living exactly like him, wearing the same cloths and never meeting a wife (or husband, in my case), but basically, doing the same thing every day, not changing my routine, is how I live already, even during the summer, and I'm happy just like I am.
Spending every day without friends is quite alright, as I like being alone most of the time. I don't want big adventures, and I'm fine with the friends I have. I like my life simple, and I am satisfied with that. I don't get bored easily because I am entertained easily.
After looking through some of the posts, I realized most people would disagree with me, and I know most of my friends would, too. But I'm different, I like being holed up in my room with only a computer to keep me company. I'm happy with my like the way it is now, and I don't plan on changing the way it is any time soon. I'm in good health and I am happy, so why should I change?
