tests

Because I am a geek, and because I am bored at work because the stupid database still isn't working and we can't do any updating, I've been taking bunches of those online quizzes at places like Emode.

So, here's my flavor:

Mmm ... mocha! Strong and rich � but not too sweet � you're the flavor of late nights and early mornings. A coffeehouse regular, you've cornered the market on deep thoughts and probably have a little more than your fair share of brains. In fact, those who know you may even consider you an intellectual, a label that suits you just fine. Deep and thoughtful, you love the academic life � or at least the structured pursuit of knowledge. And, since hitting the books often means all-nighters, what better flavor than mocha to keep you company? Chocolaty and intense, you're a truly tasty treat.

Now the description is mostly accurate, but the odd thing is I don't like mocha. Although I suppose if I am mocha, it's more important for other people to like it.

My This one was actually fairly accurate:

Existing situation: Active, but feels that insufficient progress or reward is being made for the effort exerted,

Stress source: The tenacity and strength of will necessary to contend with existing difficulties has become weakened. Feels overtaxed, worn out, and getting nowhere, but continues to stand her ground. She feels this adverse situation as an actual tangible pressure which is intolerable to her and from which she wants to escape, but she feels unable to make the necessary decision.

Restrained characteristics: Circumstances force her to compromise and to forgo some pleasures for the time being.

Desired objective: Over-imaginative and given to fantasy or day-dreaming. Longs for interesting and exciting things to happen and wants to be admired for her charm.

Problems: The tensions induced by trying to cope with conditions which are really beyond her capabilities, or reserves of strength, have led to considerable anxiety and a sense of personal (but unadmitted) inadequacy. She reacts by seeking outside confirmation of her ability and value in order to bolster her self-esteem. Inclined to blame others so that she may shift the blame from herself. Anxiously searching for solutions and prone to compulsive inhibitions and compulsive desires.

I may comment more on this later. Too much to think about at the moment.

And finally, at the Spark, this is my personality test results. Again pretty accurate, although I don't think I'm likely to cheat on Blue.

(Dominant Introvert Abstract Thinker )

Like just 4% of the population you are an EXPERIMENTER (DIAT). Although you're slightly shy (admit it!), you love control. When a problem comes in your way, you stomp on it swiftly and decisively. You are bothered easily by failure in others and failure in yourself. You don't like people that you don't think are intelligent. Rather than arguing with them, however, you would just as soon ignore them altogether.

In relationships, you have a strong heart. And because you're introverted, people take you as someone they can trust. But the fact is that in addition to solving problems, you like to create them. So there's a decent chance that you'll cheat on a loved one. If you do, you'll likely get away with it.

That's really enough self-analysation for one day. It's lunch time, and since I never got my muffin, I think I'll go splurge on french fries. That is, if I don't BURN TO A CRISP the moment I walk out the door
