Personal Profile System

My roommate made me take a personality test after I told her I was accused of having no feelings. Twice. This week.

Oh man, this company has my number.

Overuses
impatience; "win-lose" competition

Under pressure
becomes critical and fault-finding; resists participating with a team; may overstep boundaries

Fears
others will take advantage of them; slowness, especially in task activities; being a pushover

Would increase effectiveness through
explanation of their reasoning and consideration of other views and ideas about goals and solutions to problems; genuine concern for others; patience and humility

Result-Oriented people display self-confidence, which some may interpret as arrogance. Result-Oriented people tend to avoid constraining factors, such as direct controls, time-consuming details, and routine work. Because they are forceful and direct, they may have difficulties with others. Result-Oriented people are quick thinkers, and they are impatient and critical toward those who are not. They evaluate others on their ability to get results. In their uncompromising drive for results, they may appear blunt and uncaring.

I'm sorry everyone.

I'll let you in on my little secret...

I can't explain myself. I love it.

I was going to write a post about the little known facts about me but this is all I came up with. Like I said, I love it. Don't ask any questions.

Things to do on Your Birthday

1. Convince a waiter that you're under 12 so you can order from the child's menu.

2. If your family doesn't quite come through for you on the caramel brownies and ice cream you requested, scrounge for leftover cake and send your roommate to the store.

3. Star in a Snuggie fashion show.

4. Pick a fight with a unicorn. Hint: wear protective eyewear or the unicorn might win.

Freak unicorn accident

Have you ever been assaulted by a unicorn on your birthday?
