Backgound
1. What is your personality type?
ENFP with a strong T side in questioning particularly and a few midzones. the enfp descriptions about my childhood, ideals etc. fit me much better though, so i'm confident that i'm an ENFP.

Questions
6. What career are you in or looking to be in? What are you doing right now to help you achieve this career goal? 3rd year philosophy major. i'm gonna go down the acadmic track and just do philosophy
7. What is your friendships like with both genders? How many good friends do you have and why are you friends with these people?
most my friends (the really close ones) are male. i get along fine with the chicks but part of me is always thinking about a possible relationship and that gets messy. i like to get along with everyone and i make a conscious effort to try and do that. close friends? I have like around 5 close friends in NZ and 3 in HK. we're talking about the really close friends here of course.
8. What paranoias do you have? that life can end at any second, both for me or anyone around me. i make it blatantly clear that i care for the people i care about, because life's just too short for them to not know for certain.
9. What are your vices?
procrastination definitely. waste way too much time when i should be doing work. the other thing would be anger i guess. i'm not an angry person in general and as i said before, i try to be friends with everyone. things build up though and when i eventually meet someone who is just a complete jackass, i explode. i'm also really picky with everything, though i learn to be content. lazy perfectionist i guess.
10. What are your fears? death, regret, being alone, dieing without feeling i've made put my stamp on the world in some sort of einstein/shakespeare-esque way.
11. What is your relationship like with your parents? siblings (if you had any)?
my dad's an INTP and we get along famously. we both share a very strong intuitive side and we love each other. my mother's an ISFJ and she often drives me nuts. we try and accommodate each other but we look at things too differently. she follows some traditions just for the sake of following them, and i can't stand that if i don't see the logic behind it. i would want to talk about it, but she says that it would just depress her. that gets me real mad. she's also a J, and i'm a P, so she hates my messiness and i hate her obsession with everything being spotless. my sister i think is a IXTP. she used to be very S but she and i a quite close and she's just as nutso as i am now

12. How are you with expressing emotion in public? no problems at all.
13. How do you think people saw you in high school? How do you think people see you now?
in the early stages of high school, people saw me as a geek as well as someone who may have tried too hard to fit in. at the same time though, people who know me well know that i have to be creative. there's a conflict there. eventually i addressed this by telling myself that being yourself is more important. during my last say, 2 years, people saw me as sociable and smart, though the geek is still somewhat there

And finally....
14. What do you see as the point to your life and life in general?
two things really that sum me up.
1. i want to be happy. there's no reason to be otherwise. your job, money, social status etc. don't mean shit if you're not happy about it. so, i live my life trying not to conform for the sake of conforming and try to find joy wherever i go. i always have a smile on my face.

.
2. i want immortality in the sense that i can feel like i've done some meaningful work and that people will remember me after my time is over. i'm a philosopher, so by meaningful work i mean create a great theory comparable to the likes of marz, rawls, plato etc. it's a dream, i know, but ENFP's can dream.
