I went to class on Friday... for FUN??

Feb 20, 2006 09:52

Yeah, well. My English teacher advised that during our five-day weekend we go sit in one of the lecture halls at a UC or CSU and see how college classes really are. I took her advice and tagged along to my sister's organic chemistry and government classes. I had no idea what was going on during ochem, seeing as I've never even taken regular chemistry (yeah, shut up) but I recognized about half the concepts that were discussed in government. I guess that helped keep my attention.

Then on Saturday my sister and I ventured into mid town Sacramento. We checked out a few boutiques and eclectic clothing stores. I must admit, they have some cute clothes... but I wouldn't pay $29 for a sheer-like printed shirt that I could easily replicate myself.

Speaking of clothes, though, I bought myself some black leggings over the weekend. The leggings thing has been in style in Japan for the past couple of years, but now America's getting into it. I figure I should abuse the trend as much as I can before everyone else starts dressing similarly. Also, I found out that I have a strange liking for lace camis.

...Good lord, I'm talking like a regular teenage girl. It's a bit scary.

Okay, back to geekiness. And what better than a few

the Asserter
Test finished! you chose AY - your Enneagram type is EIGHT.

"I must be strong"

Asserters are direct, self-reliant, self-confident, and protective.

How to Get Along with Me

  • Stand up for yourself... and me.

  • Be confident, strong, and direct.

  • Don't gossip about me or betray my trust.

  • Be vulnerable and share your feelings. See and acknowledge my tender,
    vulnerable side.

  • Give me space to be alone.

  • Acknowledge the contributions I make, but don't flatter me.

  • I often speak in an assertive way. Don't automatically assume it's
    a personal attack.

  • When I scream, curse, and stomp around, try to remember that's just
    the way I am.


What I Like About Being a Eight

  • being independent and self-reliant

  • being able to take charge and meet challenges head on

  • being courageous, straightforward, and honest

  • getting all the enjoyment I can out of life

  • supporting, empowering, and protecting those close to me

  • upholding just causes


What's Hard About Being a Eight

  • overwhelming people with my bluntness; scaring them away when I don't
    intend to

  • being restless and impatient with others' incompetence

  • sticking my neck out for people and receiving no appreciation for it

  • never forgetting injuries or injustices

  • putting too much pressure on myself

  • getting high blood pressure when people don't obey the rules or when
    things don't go right


Eights as Children Often

  • are independent; have an inner strength and a fighting spirit

  • are sometimes loners

  • seize control so they won't be controlled

  • fugure out others' weaknesses

  • attack verbally or physically when provoked

  • take charge in the family because they perceive themselves as the strongest,
    or grow up in difficult or abusive surroundings


Eights as Parents

  • are often loyal, caring, involved, and devoted

  • are sometimes overprotective

  • can be demanding, controlling, and rigid
