You Are An ENFP
The Inspirer
You love being around people, and you are deeply committed to your friends.
You are also unconventional, irreverent, and unimpressed by authority and rules.
Incredibly perceptive, you can usually sense if someone has hidden motives.
You use lots of colorful language and expressions. You're quite the storyteller!
In love, you are quite the charmer. And you are definitely willing to risk your heart.
You often don't follow through with your flirting or professed feelings. And you do break a lot of hearts.
At work, you are driven but not a workaholic. You just always seem to enjoy what you do.
You would make an excellent entrepreneur, politician, or journalist.
How you see yourself: compassionate, unselfish, and understanding
When other people don't get you, they see you as: gushy, emotional, and unfocused
What's Your Personality Type?
Exploring my passions, which change often. I love challenges, and perhaps I'm slightly masochistic in that way. I am increasingly interested in photography and photo editing. I take pictures of myself, what of it? Sometimes I share. I love to travel. I've been called a workaholic, but right now I'm unemployed and I wouldn't go back to work if I didn't need the money. I've been cured! Looking for a job that I can stand behind and enjoy has become a full-time job in itself. I'm suddenly into cooking...this from a girl who five years ago could only make mac & cheese. I love looking at things in a new light. Just when I think I know who I am, I find out maybe I didn't know. Thank God I have fantastic friends to help me realize that it doesn't matter. I like roadtrips, music keeps me breathing. I like mixing roadtrips and music and singing along to songs in the car. I write, but always doubt my abilities. I'm an imperfect perfectionist, and that is NOT easy. Coffee, tea, wine, pretty much anything you can drink and discuss. I will throw myself into something I believe in. I like quotes. Music, clearly. I'm just me.
People holding signs that help me see which way to go. People holding mirrors that help me see who I am. Friends that become family. Honest and heartfelt individuals. Anyone who can help my dreams become reality, and will be there with me all the way there and beyond. People who don't just tell me what I want to hear, but what I need to hear. People that make me laugh, that make me cry, that make me angry, the whole shabang. Someone to sit with me at midnight and listen to music, to dance in my underwear with, to take silly pictures with, to jump up and down with, and who will stand up for those who can't stand . . . And Joan Jett, Joni Mitchell, Chrissie Hynde, The Bangles (I don't want to talk about it lol), Maya Angelou (I did see her speak once), and Hillary Clinton (doesn't mean I'm voting for her). Preferably together. All in the same room at the same time. That could be interesting. LOL.
Music plays a huge part in my life. I love finding new music. I want to feel, I want to move. The one I always go back to, the one I've been listening to the longest, when I go to bed, when I'm driving, the one that's been there through so much even though she has no idea, is CharMar (Charlotte Martin). Since then, I've my top 3 (whom I know personally), and after those introductions I'll finally attempt to create a list. :-/
My friend Rebecca Harris is absolutely brilliant (she's Becky No! on myspace).
Porcelain is absolutely electric. I am totally addicted to them. Die hard Porcelain fans/friends/family have all dubbed ourselves the "Porcelain family." Join us. Click here to be directed to the Porcelain Street Team page . More show photos in my "This is My High" album.
Cindy Alexander a.k.a. pnut is a beautiful person, a fabulous musician, and you will love her. Visit her in my top friends AND check out her ReverbNation page for even more info and more songs.
If You'd like to be on a mailing list for any of these bands, let me know. I can make it happen. I promise you won't get spammed. The lists are EXTREMELY well-managed and the artists are totally respectful. :-)
"Tell me why do you move so fast where did you hide your past
Tell me what does your true worth cost?
How did you get so lost?
Baby I know its late outside
But dont let your daydreams die!"
Porcelain, "Desert Dressed in Lights"

Kissing Jessica Stein. Even reading the quotes on imbd is FANTASTIC!
No thanks. I'd rather be with friends or on the computer or listening to music. Don't get me wrong. I have a television. It's just not my favorite past-time.
My friend Moby's blog!
I'm a Literature major. *gasp* Don't worry. I can speak to non-reading people, too. I mean, hopefully you're at least LITERATE. I don't do much reading right now, but I do have some favorites: Written on the Body by Janette Winterson, Bastard Out of Carolina (mostly b/c I enjoyed studying it in school), Wicked, Jane Austen, Shakespeare, Kissing in Manhattan, Dangerous Angels, The Unholy Bible, all of the Ken Blanchard books on management, Pages for You (silly romance), Generation of Vipers, The Little Prince, Learning to Fly by Sam Keen, Life of Pi by Yan Martel, Feast of Love by Charles Baxter, The Man in my Basement by Walter Mosley, David Sedaris, The Four Agreements (thanks, Dad), self-help books ("personal enrichment books" sounds so much better. haha) . . . When I was younger I always read books about women in peril. I don't know. What can I say--I'm a savior. I used to write stories and poems, but lately I use email as a kind of journal. Sometimes, i don't even send the emails. Click here for Letterineversent.com My favorite reading material lately, though, has been emails from people I love. It's like a high--hearing what others are thinking about and learning how they process things and what's going through their heads.Um let's see . . . Don Delillo (sp?), You're Not from Around Here, Are You?, essays about relationships, literary theory, philosophy, and gender studies. Things that are original and raw. Works in progress. Poetry. Enda St. Vincent Milay.
My dad. Seriously. All of my friends--past, present, and future. People who stick up for what they believe in, whether that's something I agree with or not. People with opinions. People who are true to themselves. People who overcome illness or have loved ones who are suffering. Anyone who questions things. And of course pnut.
