bugs and personality types
so this morning i woke up really out of it considering that I had been watching the biography chanel special on porn star Ron Jeremy until 1:00 in the morning. i got out of bed and almost stepped on a huge, green and red bug. i, being the vegetarian that I am, ran to get a tissue to carry the bug outside and realized halfway down the stairs that the bug was actually a christmas light that had fallen off my tree.
I also took a personality type test for my college apps today and was delighted to learn that my personality type (INTP) has...
-the lowest mean level of coping resources; ranked 16th out of 16 types on total resources.
- Most frequent among college students referred for drug and alcohol violations
- exhibit weakness in performing maintenance-type tasks, such as bill-paying and dressing appropriately
-difficulty giving the warmth and support that is sometimes necessary in intimate relationships
-may become isolated from society
- completely unaware of how to express their inner world to others in a meaningful way.
-unknowingly or uncaringly hurt people's feelings
-being overly independent, unconventional, and original and intimidating others
the full analysis is probably interesting only to me and my many asian lovers :| , so I shall tag it
People like you, Kristen, are great strategic thinkers, creative problem solvers, and architects of ideas. You are especially interested in mastering and perfecting theoretical or complex issues. Quiet, serious, and thoughtful, you are intellectual and complicated and may appear quite dispassionate and reserved. However, you can become excited and persuasive about your ideas once you are ready to share them. You are logical and analytical, with a strong need to make sense of the world and you have a natural ability to look at things from a global perspective.
Strongly independent, you are driven to increase your personal mastery of subjects and are drawn to people of power and expertise. You are open minded, intrigued with anything imaginative, enjoy learning new things, and taking calculated risks. You prefer to look beyond what is known or accepted at the present time and eagerly consider more creative yet reasonable approaches to problems or ways of perfecting systems.
Ruled mostly by logic, you can sometimes neglect to consider the more human side of issues. You can be critical and argumentative and may dismiss the feelings of others unless you understand them and can see that they make sense. You set such incredibly high standards for yourself and your projects that you can become discouraged when you donât reach or exceed them. You may tend to ignore the more practical aspects of your work, may fail to follow up, and let important details fall through the cracks.
You are a very private person, needing lots of space and plenty of quiet time alone to think things through or tinker with the subjects and projects that really interest you. You generally don't like to be crowded or pressured to participate in social activities that are too hectic or superficial and tend to have a very small cluster of close, trusted friends. Inventive and imaginative, you generally make quick and insightful connections and enjoy coming up with original solutions to problems. But you probably get bored quickly, dislike repetition, and may struggle to explain your ideas simply and clearly to other people.
You are also able to remain calm and cool in almost any situation. Because you are bothered by unfairness and inconsistency, and are rarely influenced by other people's opinions, you tend to speak your mind honestly, if sometimes a bit bluntly. Above all, you strive to meet or exceed your own high standards rather than worrying about trying to please others. You easily see both sides of issues so you may enjoy debating, and, you are great at finding the flaws in other people's arguments.
Note: Based on our assessment, your personality type is "INTP."
