Your first name of Barendina has given you an eagerness for knowledge and an intense desire to do something worthwhile in life. This name makes you extremely sensitive to thought impressions and, at times, you could struggle with feelings of despondency and morbidity. You could be exceptionally brilliant in any subject that holds your interest. You cannot tolerate boredom and monotony. Although you appear aloof to others, a loner with few close friends, there are times when you would give anything to be spontaneous and natural, rather than guarded and reserved. During such challenging moments, you tend to be temperamental and reactionary, perhaps showing your disapproval through blunt expression or a chilly silence that can hurt others even worse than words. You long for freedom from restrictions and for outlets for your restless qualities, and cannot tolerate drudgery and monotony. You are easily hurt and offended. Loving the outdoors, you enjoy outside activities and the beauty of nature in its many facets. At times, you may be subject to insomnia through an inability to relax.
