Describe your personality, include your strengths and weaknesses: I'm a very compassionate person and I try to be as supportive as I can -- I'd do anything for my family and friends. They mean the world to me! I'm a bit withdrawn in the sense that it can be really hard for me to open up about my feelings and I tend to bottle them up inside. I also don't like confrontations, and if someone does something I disagree with I tend to just let it go. I think I'm pretty independent - at least for a student who doesn't have a full-time job (meaning I still rely on my parents for some things). It can be a bad thing because I don't often ask for help, even if I need it, but I don't like relying on others. They've usually let me down, so I don't do that anymore. I like to have fun and goof around, but I can also be serious. I am pretty idealistic and I like to dream a lot about what my life COULD be like, but I also think that I'm grounded and I know what the reality of my situation is. I could make my dreams come true, but it is going to take a lot of hard work and I know that, and I'm not afraid of that. Also, I just think that I'm a nice person. I'm a bit shy when it comes to meeting people for the first time (although I think I'm becoming much less so), but I'm very friendly and polite.
My Meyers-Briggs personality type is INFP (introverted, intuitive, feeling, perceiving) and my iPersonic type is the Dreamy Idealist. :)
Likes/Interests: Books, reading, writing, watching movies, movies in general, music, shopping, ballet flats, purses, pearls, lilies, stars, flowers, snow, rain, being with my friends and family, my dog, coffee, chocolate, ice cream, traveling, animals, things that are pink!
Dislikes/Pet Peeves: Ticks, deep water, gum chewing and other loud, obnoxious chewing sounds, beets, sounds people make when they sleep, taking naps, people who are arrogant jerks and people who put down others just because they are different, and when people complain about things but don't bother to do anything to fix it.
This or That
Leader or Follower: I don't really consider myself to be much of a leader, but I will step up if I need to. However, I also won't do something just because everyone else is.
Optimist or Pessimist: Optimist, but I do have my pessimistic tendencies.
Idealist or Realist: More idealistic, but I do have a firm sense of reality as well. I like dreaming about things that could happen, but I know that it'll take a lot of hard work before they finally do.
Lover or Fighter: Lover!
Quiet or Outspoken: More quiet, but I'm getting more outspoken. It also depends on the situation.
Making Your Own Destiny or Accepting Fate: Sometimes I tend to just take what comes to me, but I very much believe in making my own destiny!
Determined or Accepting: Both - I'm determined about my goals and dreams, but very accepting of other people and ideas.
Describe your clothing style: I would say it's cute and casual, and also feminine. I almost always wear jeans, and I pair them with a cute top (either a tank top, fitted t-shirt or sweater, dependin on the weather). I love ballet flats, but I wear sneakers in the winter and sandals when it's really hot out. I love accessorizing with pretty earrings, and I have a ring I got for my 16th birthday that I always wear. I love little embelishments like lace, beadwork, sequins or ruffles, but I also like to keep it simple. I also wear a lot of pink, blue, white/off-whites and black!
What are your goals in life?: I want to be successful in the nursing program, and graduate and get a good job. I want to help people in everything I do - even if it's little things like just listening to them talk... I want to be there. I want to travel the world, and I want to go to Disney World and the new Harry Potter theme park with my best friend! ♥
What are you passionate about?: I'm very passionate about helping people... so much that I fully intend on dedicating my life to it. I'm passionate about being the best friend and person I can be and giving all I can to others. I'm passionate about love, because I think I have a lot of love to give, but I also won't give my heart to just ANYBODY. I'm passionate about reading, reading a lot. I'm passionate about good coffee and baked goods, haha. I'm passionate about Disney! I could write a whole book on how much it means to me. I'm passionate about living life to the fullest, while taking time to smell the roses and appreciating the good things, about being strong through the bad times because things WILL get better, loving as much as you can and learning throughout your whole life.
What are your views on love?: I'm not the kind of person who needs to be in a relationship to make me happy, and I'd MUCH rather be single than with someone that I don't truly have feelings for. However, I'm not cynical in the least! I'm a bit of a hopeless romantic and I really do believe in true love - I just refuse to compromise myself to find it (and to me, that isn't what "true" love is anyway).
