I'm stuck between a couple of types, and I would love you help in typing. Thanks!
Everyone I know has a strong, but differing opinion of my personality. I've been typed a few different ways in the past. I'm not going to say which ones I've been typed as because I don't want to put anything in your heads. I figure a blank slate will lead to more accurate typing.
1. During your youth (7'ish to 18), What did you focus on the most? What activities did you like and why? What aspect of life was lax in attention?
Until I was 9 I was most focused on my friends. I didn’t care about school work at all. I did care about fashion, I was the kind of girl who climbed a tree in a dress because I wanted to look good and have adventures. From 9 to 18 I started focusing on my school work. I developed a love of learning, and my friends came second. I didn’t date in high school, I thought there were more important things, and I didn’t want to loose sight of my goals by being distracted with a guy.
2. You're in you senior year of high school (or whatever equivalent) and you are looking back over the last couple of years. What was your favorite aspect of the schooling experience and why? Favorite subject and why?
I loved learning new things. I went to a Waldorf school, so we had al kinds of cool classes, like sacred geometry, black smithing, quantum physics, biochemistry, weaving, the flowering of English, Faust, Percival, pottery, stone carving, etc. I liked learning about all the different topics, it was the breadth of knowledge that made me happiest, not an individual class.
3. A couple of friends call and invite you out to a restaurant. While there, you all are pleasantly conversing and one of your friends makes a comment that irked you. What are you're thoughts and how do you respond?
It would probably bother me for a while, and I would have a hard time seeing them she same after. If it was a comment about me I would have a hard tie trusting them fully. If it was an opinion they expressed that they had kept hidden form me previously, I would loos respect for them. But if it was just an off the cuff remark they said to fit in with the group, it wouldn’t bother me much at all.
4. Your schooling is done and it's time to strike out into the world!! What sort of career do you want to go into and why?
When I graduated high school I had three idea of my career: astrophysics, archaeology, of film. I took a trip to Greece and decided archaeology was a bad fit since I go tired of ruins after the third or forth set. I choose no to become an astrophysicist because I found the people were too introverted for me liking. I ended up choosing film acting because actors feel emotions for people. The general population isn’t comfortable with a depth of emotion, so a film or TV show allows that to feel the emotion with out having to actually experience it.
5. A friend is getting married and they put you in charge of the cake. You narrowed it down to two places to make an order. The first is a bakery with whom you got a good relationship with. The other is a well-known cake maker to whom everyone goes to (your friend hints to it as well). Which one do you choose and why?
The one my friend hint at. It’s not my wedding so my relationship with the cake maker doesn’t matter.
6. You get into an argument with a friend/family member/co-worker. They criticize one of your personality traits. What would most likely be the focus of their critique?
My sister regularly tells me I’m judgmental, which I find hilarious since she is the most judgmental person I’ve ever met. I don’t have a problem expressing my feelings, I never lie, and I will honestly answer any question someone asks me, which seems to rub people the wrong way. I will never pretend I agree with something just because it’s politically correct, or might hurt someone’s feelings.
7. It's New Years! You and your friends are out and about after a party. Being drunk, one of your friends suggests to do something....'questionable' (Nothing serious. I.e, drugs, escort, etc.). What are your thoughts and how do you respond?
I would tell them I wasn’t interested and go home. I have no interest in stopping them, but not want to be part of it myself.
8. A new art gallery opens up and your friend wants to go to the grand opening. Both of you analyze all the paintings and sculptures. What about these works warrants the most attention from you? Why?
I don’t like modern art, so I would be most interested in something in a more classical style. If it reminded my of a historical artist I would be most interested.
9. You have been saving up and decide to buy a new car. At the dealership, you peruse the lots. What are the criteria and factors that influence your choice? Which one would initially be your main focus?
I think some cars look mean, and some look nice. It’s the style of headlights etc. I only like the nice looking ones. Second would be gas mileage, I like not having to fill my tank very often. I also like a car I am familiar with the inside of so I stick with the company I grew up with.
10. Yep, you now have a kid (sex of your choosing)! Years pass and they are now
15 years old. You notice their personality traits are the complete opposite of how you were when at their age. Describe how they are. Describe the possible conflicts that would arise between both of you due to differing temperaments.
They are mostly interested in dating, they don’t care about their school work, they drink, stay out late. I honestly don’t think there would be a huge conflict. I wished I was less afraid of messing up when I was that age. While I would certainly do my best to keep them safe, and stop any dangerous behavior (drinking), so long as they are happy, and safe, I don’t need to agree with their views.
1) What aspect of your personality made you unsure of your type?
The farther I look into the types the less certain I am.
2) What do you yearn for in life? Why?
Respect. Growing up people respected my for my skills, when I became an actress, everyone lost respect for me. For some reason none of my accomplishments matter at all, and the only thing anyone sees is a hot, dumb piece of meat. Even people who know my intellectual history no longer respect me simply because of the title “actressâ€. I have actually chosen to change career direction because I can’t stand how I’m treated.
3) Think about a time where you felt like you were at your finest. Tell us what made you feel that way.
When I am able to create something original, or figure out something no one else has. There’s something about being the first that I love. If it’s already been done I don’t see it as worth my time.
4) What makes you feel inferior?
Having my knowledge dismissed because of my looks. I study quantum physics for fun, I am working on a degree in history, I have one in acting, and eastern medicine. I gather knowledge on every subject I can, because I love it. But no one believes I know anything because I’m pretty.
5) What tends to weigh on your decisions? (Do you think about people, pro-cons, how you feel about it, etc.)
I know what makes me happy. My decisions are based on a combination of the most logical course of action and my gut feeling.
6) When working on a project what is normally your emphasis? Do you like to have control of the outcome?
Not necessarily. I think things are best when they are allowed to evolve. If I tried to control the outcome I might miss out of an even better outcome that could have evolved on it’s own.
7) Describe a time where you had a lot of fun. How is your memory of it?
I always have the most fun when I’m with a group of friends, and I don’t have to make any decisions. I have a group of friends from acting school, it never mattered what we did, we always had a great time. Once we ended up having a dance party at mid night in one of the rehearsal rooms at school, other times we just walked around the city. It was never about what we did, just so long as at least three of us were there.
8) When you want to learn something new, what feels more natural for you?
Different things are best learned in different ways, so it depends on what I want to learn
9) How organized do you think of yourself as?
I am moderately organized. I like some organization, but rigid plans don’t work for me. Being able to adapt is essential.
10) How do you judge new ideas? You try to understand the principles behind it to see if they make sense or do you look for information that supports it?
Definitely the principles.
11) You find harmony by making sure everyone is doing fine and belonging to a given group or by making sure that you follow what you believe and being yourself?
Being my self. I’ve tried the other way, and I end up depressed and angry. I hate being around people I have to hide any side of my self from, or watch what I say around.
12) Are you the kind that thinks before speaking or do you speak before thinking? Do you prefer one-on-one communication or group discussions?
I wish I though before speaking. I blurt things I wish I hadn’t all the time, and when I do think before speaking I either never get to say it, or it comes out wrong. I like group discussions, but it has to be the right group, but I can usually hold up a one on one conversation with anyone.
13) Do you jump into action right away or do you like to know where are you jumping before leaping? Does action speaks more than words?
Combination of the two. I always have fun when I jump into action, but naturally I like to observe before jumping in. I love words, but I’ve had enough people lie to me that I trust actions more than words.
14) It's Saturday. You're at home, and your favorite show is about to start. Your friends call you for a night out. What will you do?
I’d go out. So long as it’s not to a club or to get drunk. I hate clubs (too loud), and I’m not a fan of drunk people.
15) How do you act when you're stressed out?
I lash out at the people I care most about.
16) What makes you dislike the personalities of some people?
I can’t stand it when people don’t think for themselves. I easily read people, so it’s easy for me to see what they actually believe what they are saying vs. when they are just saying something because everyone else is.
17) Is there anything you really like talking about with other people?
Anything, I love hearing people opinions. I like see how people think, and why they act the way they do.
18) What kind of things do you pay the least attention to in your life?
How my actions affect others. I get caught up in things, and have to consciously think about how I will affect others.
19) How do your friends perceive you? What is wrong about their perception? ? What would your friends never say about your personality ?
They all see me as an extrovert, which shocked me the first time I hear it because I always thought I was an introvert because I spent so much time in my own head. I don’t think they are wrong, I think others often see things we can’t. They would never call me powerless. They nicknamed me queen, and joke about my being born to rule.
20) You got a whole day to do whatever you like. What kind of activities do you feel like doing?
Calling a friend up to come over and drink tea while we bake some kind of pastry and talk. And later watch a favorite movie.
