Dislikes: Loud noises, crowds, insults towards me, idiots, bees, needles, talking on the phone to people I don't know, people thinking they know me in-and-out when they don't, public speaking/long strands of speech in general (I stumble over words), germs, aches, rudeness, being incorrect or inaccurate, losing.
THE PERSONALITY PART
Strong points: Outwardly calm, good actor/can hide feelings well, skilled at light-hearted teasing amongst peers, can be friendly/kind but doesn't look like it at first glance, intelligent, good listener yet can be opinionated when need be, witty, very analytical, has a good balance of selflessness and self-centeredness, honest, surprisingly can be very expressive/animated when in the right mood, pretty good self-control, extremely loyal and protective of those close to me.
Weak points: Inwardly emotional/mood-swingish, varying self-esteem, jumps to conclusions, pessimistic and finds faults in others easily, worries a lot, somewhat quiet yet can be very talkative when the subject is right, extremely blunt, takes a long time to get to know me and earn my trust, sometimes awkward in personal/emotional situations and with people I don't know, distant, has been called "mean" multiple times, caring yet doesn't always show it, finds it hard to be enthusiastic, can be the dorkiest person, sometimes jokes around/teases at the wrong time, can be odd/a bit strange/silly if you catch me in the right mood, prideful, forgetful on things that I don't really care about, gets stuck in my mind a lot, sometimes oblivious to other sarcastic remarks besides my own.
What do other people see you/describe you as?: I always wonder if people think of me as boring. Of course they never say I am as it would be rude to say that to someone's face, so I just keep on wondering...
Strangely enough, I've been told I'm timid by some and aggressive by others. I'd say I'm more in the middle, though...I try to avoid conflicts, but when someone challenges me, I'll hold my beliefs.
People tend to view me as extremely quiet and somewhat shy when they first see me and think I'm a loner, but in the end if they get to know me long enough I open up and I'm shown to be more "reserved" with witty and fun moments, and I can even be talkative on occasion if something comes up that truly interests me. I'm extremely attached to my hobbies and interests and get obsessed easily.
People are impressed with my genuinity. They like that I can say the blunt and honest truth, no matter how much it may frighten them sometimes (I've been told it's scared people, funnily enough).
I've also been told I'm funny as all hell. Who knew?
My mom says, "You're inquisitive, witty, fun, logical, funny, and a bit obsessive."
EITHER OR
Add "why?" if at all possible.
Mature or Immature?: I'd say mature in serious situations and overall. As for laid-back situations, at times I choose to be more playful, but at others I give off a serious air.
Leader or Follower?: Although I'm able to lead, most of the time I'd rather not take up the position, since it's a lot of responsibility and I'm a bit lazy. It's actually best for me to just go my own way and do my own thing.
Outgoing or Shy?: I woudn't ever describe myself as "outgoing", but I wouldn't say I'm very "shy", either. Maybe when you first meet me, but overall I'd say I'm more "reserved" with playful moments.
Confident or Modest?: My confidence varies. Sometimes its horribly low and I don't have any motivation at all, but at other times I'm alright. But I'm confident in things I know I'm good at, like RPG video games, fighting video games, DDR, and sprinting. I guess I try to appear modest when I'm first meeting someone, though, as it's only polite.
Safe or Risky?: Definitely safe. I'm not fond of risks at all. I worry too much as I'm not a fan of change, and it just stresses me out.
Optimistic or Pessimistic?: I'm mostly a pessimistic realist, but I can have bits of optimism here and there on occasion, although I don't like the feeling of being optimistic because it makes me feel fake.
Realist or Idealist?: Realistic. Definitely.
Low, medium, or high energy level?: More on the low side, maybe medium. Rarely high...but I tend to attract high-energy people, which is funny. We balance each other out.
Listener or Speaker?: Definitely a listener, but I'll speak up if something goes against what I think is right, or if something doesn't make sense. I'm very inquisitive and curious.
Serious or Playful?: A bit of both, although I probably appear serious to most people, and try my best to take important matters seriously.
Impulsive or Cautious?: Cautious for the most part. I'm not a fan of making decisions on the fly.
IN STAR TREK
So the Enterprise has been invaded by an outside force and is being threatened unless the captain surrenders the ship. (What else is new?) What would your reaction be in this situation? Would you panic? I wouldn't panic but I'd certainly be a bit shaken up and maybe even a bit irritable under the stress, although I'd do my best to hide it. I'd try to keep a cool head, and would have the safety of the crew and the ship as my highest priority. I'd ask questions to the newcomers and try to figure out some sort of weakness they may have, then talk with some of my fellow crewmates while the invaders weren't looking and try to figure out a well-crafted plan to get them off the ship. I'd certainly need their help, as I'm not too terribly creative.
So now they've got you captured and are threatening you. It's either spill the beans about the secrets of the Enterprise or be killed on the spot. How long does it take for you to reach your breaking point? (Do you have one?) As cheesy as it sounds, I'd never betray my comrades. Ever. I'd be silent until the end.
And if you were on a ship of some sort, what kind of position (captain, medical officer, security guard, etc.) would you be comfortable with? I'd never be a captain. I wouldn't be able to handle having to make decisions quickly, and I'm not very creative, so getting out of binds wouldn't be easy. I'd be okay with being captain part-time (as a first officer or whatnot), but not full-time. I'd also be a horrible counselor, as I would be highly analytical and not very emotionally attached to my patients, and wouldn't be able to handle the extra emotional stress on top of my own. I'd probably be fine with any other position though (even though needles bother me, I'd get used to them as a medical officer eventually), as long as I'm not wearing a red shirt on away missions. I'd rather not die, thank you.
Anything else?: I'm an ISTJ-ISTP hybrid according to Myers-Briggs. If you'd like to take that into account, by all means do.
