Learn yourself!

So Kaya started it...although she blames Min, and I didn't go back to find out who Min blames...

Learn Myself a quick 120 personality test that I have mixed feelings about. I don't agree with the you tend to lack energy and have difficult initiating activities. If that were true, my calendar wouldn't be packed and Beloved and I wouldn't feel like celebrating every time we had an "unplanned" day together. I also didn't particularly like the People generally perceive you as distant and reserved, and you do not usually reach out to others. I expect the test is correct, but I try so hard to make people feel loved and special when with me. At the same time, I am shy about reaching out because I can...and DO...overextend myself. I hate that. I hate not being able to fix everything, or at least help.

The rest of it? *sigh* Startlingly accurate, I think. I wouldn't readily admit I like routines, but when I don't get to make Beloved tea before he leaves for the day, I definitely notice the break. I can despair when I don't have a plan for a day with Boy. And, surprise, surprise, the service complex came out loud and clear.

Did I learn much about myself? I don't know. But sometimes having it put in black and white (as well as red, blue, green, yellow, and purple) is helpful.
