Having fun at 3 a.m. :)

Tonight I recieved a link from a friend. I usually don't follow links recieved via e-mail, unless I know the person that sent it and that person says that it's interesting, fun, annoying, whatever.

It was a personality test, easy to take, because it consists in only 2 questions. The personality is guided by 2 axes (although I strongly believe that they are 3, that personality is 3D, not 2D).




My answers defined me as a number 7 type - the adventurer/the enthusiast. Reading it closely and objectively, I realized that it is pretty accurate. Still, some parts ar missing. But it's fun how you can be defined by the answer you give to just 2 questions...


"I am happy and open to new things"Adventurers are energetic, lively, and optimistic. They want to contribute to the world.

How to Get Along with Me
Give me companionship, affection, and freedom.
Engage with me in stimulating conversation and laughter.
Appreciate my grand visions and listen to my stories.
Don't try to change my style. Accept me the way I am.
Be responsible for youself. I dislike clingy or needy people.
Don't tell me what to do.

What I Like About Being a SEVEN
being optimistic and not letting life's troubles get me down
being spontaneous and free-spirited
being outspoken and outrageous. It's part of the fun.
being generous and trying to make the world a better place
having the guts to take risks and to try exciting adventures
having such varied interests and abilities

What's Hard About Being a SEVEN
not having enough time to do all the things I want
not completing things I start
not being able to profit from the benefits that come from specializing; not making a commitment to a career
having a tendency to be ungrounded; getting lost in plans or fantasies
feeling confined when I'm in a one-to-one relationship

SEVENs as Children Often
are action oriented and adventuresome
drum up excitement
prefer being with other children to being alone
finesse their way around adults
dream of the freedom they'll have when they grow up

SEVENs as Parents
are often enthusiastic and generous
want their children to be exposed to many adventures in life
may be too busy with their own activities to be attentive
