Stole this quiz from my cousin.  The results were, um, interesting.  How accurate they are is up to you. 


Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

Sorry it's been so long since my last entry.  My life has been um, interesting since then.  It's been an interesting time.   I have caught up with a few very old friends and it's been really nice.  Everyone seems to be moving in a very postive direction in their lives.  In some ways, I feel very much older than my 24 years.  I'm not where most of my peers are and it's not really a snobby thing, it's just a realistic thing and it makes me feel left out because my responsibilities sometimes loom a lot higher than others.  In a lot of ways, from time to time, I would love to go running and screaming from everything that I have done and take a long vacation in.............. I don't know Las Vegas.  Random, I know, but I haven't been there since everything became legal for me.  By the time I even thought about it, I was pregnant and well, I've been a bit busy since.  So, for everyone else out there:  HI!!! I do miss talking to everyone a lot.  It's probably my fault, but I hope everyone is happy, healthy and safe.  Drop a line!

Okay, so it's been an interesting um, summer.  For those that I haven't talked to, I found myself back at Macy's.  It was enlightening to say the least.  I honestly had no idea how much women spend to stay young and how much they complain if they don't get the free gift and then free samples on top of that.  Or if the counter is not offering a free gift, they really don't want to buy what they actually need until they get something free with it. 

As for school, I'm teaching first period this year.  That would be 7:20am.  As I'm sure most people know that I am not a morning person by any stretch of the imagination, and yet, I've been called too perky in the morning already.  I really can't help the perkiness.  If I'm not, I can't put on my happy teaching face to try and reach disgruntled teens who resent having English first thing in the morning.  It's really not my fault that in my English 2, I have 10 Eleventh graders and 3 seniors in my 31 person class.  My freshmen are okay.  I have a few kids who haven't reached 14 yet and it really shows.  Oh well.  It's been interesting.  Only 177 more days of school left.  Yes, we have started counting.  :)
