so last night allen and i were watching the oprah show about hurricane katrina. i really do think that george bush doesn't care about black people. or any people, really, that aren't himself. i also watched the daily show this morning when jon stewart RAILED on the president, and it was pretty funny, but it made me even more mad.

allen and i both really wanted to go down there to help out. but he can't get off work. however, they are housing people at the tinley park mental health center. http://www.sspads.org/HurricaneKatrinaEffort.html anyone want to volunteer with me on sundays?

last time i did this i got it right! i've aged 8 years in only 2!



You Are 27 Years Old



27





Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

call me if you have questions!

List your current six favorite songs, then pick six other people that have to do the same.

1. Bottle Rocket - The Go! Team (I WISH I could break dance when I listen to this song.)

2. Ambulance - TV on the Radio (Soo so pretty, and a capella!)

3. Hate It or Love It - The Game and 50 Cent (I also like the version with Mary J. Blige instead of The Game because it's easier, somehow, to sing along "go ahead envy me / i'm the soul hip hop queen / and I ain't goin' nowhere / but you already know me" than "go ahead envy me / i'm rap's mvp / and i ain't goin' nowhere / so you should get to know me.")

4. I Know the Pattern - The Thermals (I dunno why, this song really moves me!)

5. I dunno what this song is called - The Legends (They sound like The Thermals, but on a lower frequency.)

6. Q-Feel - Dancin' in Heaven (Orbital Be-Bop) (BEST. SONG. EVER. Download it NOW.)


Now, six people who need to do this shit:

hippie? wtf? [04 May 2005|12:40pm]
Hippie
You are 14% Rational, 57% Extroverted, 42% Brutal, and 0% Arrogant.
You are the Hippie! Characterized by a strong sense of extroversion, irrationality, gentleness, and humility, you no doubt frolic through fields preaching peace and love to all! You are probably either very spiritual or needlessly paranoid about "the man", like most hippies, as a result of your focus on intuition and feelings over cold, brutal logic. You are also very, very social. And like any hippie, who would have no qualms about hitchiking across the country just to meet some interesting people, you too love to interact with others, even complete strangers. Because we know most any hippie is peace-loving and humble, it stands to reason that you, as well, are terribly gentle and humble, almost to the point of revulsion. Your carefree attitude of peace and harmony is probably very, very sickening to realists or cynics or anyone who isn't a hippie, to tell the truth. In short, your personality is defective because you are overly emotional, extroverted, gentle, and humble--thus making you an annoying hippie. And you listen to psychadelic rock and smoke a whole lot of pot. Okay, maybe not, but I wouldn't be surprised if you did.


To put it less negatively:

1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.

2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.

3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.

Compatibility:

Your exact opposite is the Sociopath.

Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Hand-Raiser, the Televangelist and the Robot.

*

*

If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.

The other personality types:

The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.





My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 60% on Extroversion

You scored higher than 48% on Brutality

so.

laura found out that she got into teach for america. i get a generic message that says thanks for applying, still. i'm pretty sure that means i didn't get in. but i am kind of happy about that. because even though it would be financially advantageous to have gotten in, i was really kind of not wanting to do it. but i didn't want to choose to do it out of financial necessity. and teach for america just made the decision for me. although moving would have been expensive. at least i have a job for this coming year. i don't have to worry about losing my awesomely cheap apartment. instead of doing homework at my job, i could begin researching graduate/law/culinary schools like a madwoman. i could even try to apply for teach for america again, but the thing is, i heard that it's not for people who actually want to be teachers, and i actually kind of want to be a teacher. oh yeah! i could travel. this won't be so bad at all . . . it will give me more time to try and figure out what i am going to do with my life. and more time to try and get out of debt. i think it will be juuust fine.
