I was not only bored but also demotivated to attend a "political rendezvous." As I was once more caught up in a mental tug-of-war - to go or not to go - I ended up taking a bunch of random quizzes from the website www.blogthings.com instead. Nothing serious. Just wanted to kill some time. When I took my eighth quiz though, I couldn't help but pause and think some things over. The last quiz purported to reveal my names' "hidden meaning." The alleged purpose was shady enough to provoke cynicism at first. In my mind's eye, I thought: "Like you'd really find out." But after I got the results, there was this urge to stare at space for a long, long time. Surprise. They did find out a bit. Or did I just succumb to self-conceit for a moment there? ^^
80-85% of the test's contents is not a joke. I felt like a looking glass suddenly sprouted a pair of hands and forced me to stare at my own reflection. The rest of the 15-20% may be either-or for me but I do admit to such propensities. Go ahead. Read and judge for yourself. Here goes...

You Are Original and Innovative |
 You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily. You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind. A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable. You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong. You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know. You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do. You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are incredibly wise and perceptive. You have a lot of life experience. You are a natural peacemaker, and you are especially good at helping others get along. But keeping the peace in your own life is not easy. You see things very differently, and it's hard to get you to budge. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life. You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone. Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs. You are full of energy. You are spirited and boisterous. You are bold and daring. You are willing to do some pretty outrageous things. Your high energy sometimes gets you in trouble. You can have a pretty bad temper at times. |
Nota Bene: I am not so sure that I am "very likely to go with the flow" or that I "easily get along with others" but rest assured I am "many things at different points in [my] life." Being many things, however, is not a guarantee that I can always adapt. Confidence is not always my best friend too. But who knows. There is no fixed "me" in a given point of time or in a given situation. Be also forewarned that I am no respecter of structures and systems except for a few. :D
