About me: Let's see...well probably the most important part is, I believe in the essential beauty and goodness of people, life, the world, etc. Helping people express it more clearly in whatever way I can is the "purpose" I feel strongly about and want to base my career(s) on. I am very, very blessed on many levels - with friendly support, meaningful experiences and education from fascinating, powerful and inspiring people. Currently, I am growing at and thoroughly enjoying the school of my dreams, where I'm studying psychology. as for my personality, this is the
most accurate description i've come across so far. http://www.personalitypage.com/INFP.html
You are creative with a great imagination, living in your own inner world.
Open minded and accepting, you strive for harmony in your important relationships.
It takes a long time for people to get to know you. You are hesitant to let people get close.
But once you care for someone, you do everything you can to help them grow and develop.
In love, you tend to have high (and often unrealistic) standards.
You are very sensitive. You tend to have intense feelings.
At work, you need to do something that expresses your personal values.
You would make an excellent writer, psychologist, or artist.
How you see yourself: Unselfish, empathetic, and spiritual
When other people don't get you, they see you as: Unrealistic, naive, and weak
Who I'd like to meet: open minded people and
(i know, the song is annoying. at least compared to the music she's really dancing to. best tribute compilation i could find, though).
Happy holidays to you too! Glad my horrible pun amused you, and thanks for keeping up with your replies. Always good to know that some members of my old youth group family are still out there. Hope you are doing well, good luck with finals!
The book has a nice message, but alot of the readers I've been meeting lately are treating it like some biblical propaganda that must be preached to every organism with functioning frontal lobes.
Glassblowing... I wish. No, just getting the general ed out of the way. Too bad your not in dancing anymore, I had a few people asking if you'd ever come back to perform again in the camp talent show, Your fans demand an encore!!! ENCORE I SAY!
Everything is good. Its a crazy week because my coworkers on vacation, so I haven't had time to go online either. Hit them with a stick till they say yes!
