You “know”.... because you don’t want to go to sleep since reality has become better than anyt

About Me

My main aspiration in life, is to enjoy it. Too many people go through the motions of life without experiencing or understanding it. For me, life should be taken one day at a time. I have goals and things I want to, and strive to achieve.... but you can't predict what will cross your path today or tomorrow... and if things don't go the way you wanted them to.....it's okay, cause in the end, we're all the same. I believe that every moment, every breath, every encounter, every person...everything shold be cherished and repsected. I don't believe in hate and try very hard to forgive. I believe in honesty, loyalty, compassion, truth and making sure the people in my life know that I'm always thinking of them....my favorite past time is giving gifts. I'm a fairly serious person. I'm definitely not quiet or shy. Most people would describe me as having a strong "A" type personality....but I do know when to bite my tongue lol... I love meeting new and diverse people.... you'd be amazed at what you can learn form others that you might not have otherwise encountered on your own. I work hard make sure that I enjoy the fruits of my labor... I don't party much, but have a great time when I do...(it's all about the tequilla baby!) I've recently developed a chop stick fetish... if (when at home), I can eat with chop sticks.... I will. I love spicy foods, the Simpsons, Carnivale and sarcasm. I make it a point to try something new or different each day...and one thing a week that scares me.BEGINMYSPACETOOLBOXBACKUP VERSION 1.0;;000000; http://www.villagegallery.com/big025/FlamencoDancerIII.jpg; Center Center; fixed; no-repeat; 990000; ; bold; ; ; ; ; cccccc; ; bold; underline; ; ; ; 990000; ; bold; ; ; ; ; cccccc; ; bold; ; ; ; ; ; ; Center Center; scroll; no-repeat; ff0000; Ridge;

Very Well-Rounded
You have:
62% SCIENTIFIC INTUITION and
62% EMOTIONAL INTUITION
The graph on the right represents your place in Intuition 2-Space . As you can see, you scored above average on emotional intuition and above average on scientific intuition. (Weirdly, your emotional and scientific intuitions are equally strong.)
Your Emotional Intuition score is a measure of how well you understand people, especially their unspoken needs and sympathies. A high score score usually indicates social grace and persuasiveness. A low score usually means you're good at Quake.
Your Scientific Intuition score tells you how in tune you are with the world around you; how well you understand your physical and intellectual environment. People with high scores here are apt to succeed in business and, of course, the sciences.
