TALENTS/SKILLS
What are some of your talents/skills? I can draw pretty well. I went to Art school for 4 years, but I found out that the field of art is undesirable unless you sell your soul to Satan, so now I just do it as a hobby. I have a knack for very abstract thought processes, so I'm studying Literature now, and plan to do so in foreign languages. I hope to one day translate literature into English from French and Spanish, and teach literature to college students. I don't know if you would consider this a skill, though. LOL. I also write fiction and poetry.
What is your current occupation? (if still in school, just say so) I'm a permanent student. I'm always looking to learn things other people might consider strange and wasteful, but it's important to me.
QUALITIES
(Please simply place an "X" beside any statements that pertain to you. BE HONEST!)
You can sing.
You are crafty.
You are good at making people laugh. X (If I know you very well, I'll act like a dork around you. I'm usually reserved though).
You are wise. X (Apparently I'm very good at offering advise. Good thing I'm going to be a consultant for our computer labs at school next week).
You are street-smart. X I can be very street smart once I figure a place out. Dump me in a big city, and I find places easily. Landmarks are my thing.
You are graceful/elegant.
You are a good leader. X I'm usually very reluctant to lead, but once forced to I do a pretty good job.
You don't fall under pressure. X I know what's good for me.
You are determined. X
You are elusive. X
You stand behind your beliefs no matter WHAT the consequence. X Reasonably so. Unless there is substantial evidence that I'm wrong, I won't budge.
You can be obsessive. X Very much so
You aren't conventional. X
You are easily misled.
You tend to usually get what you want. X
You are scatter-brained. X I can be.
You are a dominant individual. X
You have trouble with descion-making. X Sometimes I worry too much about the consequences.
When you want something, you let NOTHING stand in your way. X
You are blunt and brash. X Some people find me very rude, but I say I just should have been born French. XD
You often feel unappreciated. X
You are considered "cold-hearted" at times. X Not by anyone I really know, though. I'm sweet once you get to know me, but I can be quite the ice queen to people I don't know from atom.
You are conniving. X I can be if we're competing. I have a strong sense of competition.
You tend to over-eat. X I love food, but it doesn't love me. LOL.
Others find you intimidating. X People say that I always look mean or upset and that I'm usually really detached from things that are going on. Sometimes when I'm thinking deeply, I forget where I am and almost get hit by cars or I'll get lost, or have meandered somewhere I wouldn't have gone if I was paying attention to where I was going. I think it's amusing that someone who stands at 4'11" can intimidate people who are 6 feet tall. :P
You are often attracted to the "dark side" of things. X I love to read dark, pessimistic literature more than anything else, and I find so much beauty in things people don't usually find to be so.
You'd betray your family/friends if it meant getting something you wanted. My family maybe, but not my friends; they're my true family.
You'd do anything for love.(I don't believe love exists, or if it does, I don't think it's right for me.)

You love the outdoors. (Not really.)
You are physically strong.
You believe in magic/the unknown. (Depends).
