About “N”

Hey! My name's N, and I'm one of those people determined to change the world.

Being unexpected comes naturally to me. It’s refined through restless nature, natural spontaneity, and a deep dedication to being different in a positive way. Professionally I’ve grown away from my geek roots, and am slowly emerging from my cubicle into the world of Marketing.

Things are better with fun, interesting people. Meeting new people is always a thrill. I’ve met everyone on my list, and will continue to do so (and will remove you, if we haven’t met in the time I set, in my head).

If you’d like to add me, please, send me a message! Otherwise, you can use the last name “ninja” as confirmation.

And now, the pictures.


You Are An ENTP
The Visionary
You are charming, outgoing, friendly. You make a good first impression.
You possess good negotiating skills and can convince anyone of anything.
Happy to be the center of attention, you love to tell stories and show off.
You're very clever, but not disciplined enough to do well in structured environments.
In love, you see everything as a grand adventure. You enjoy taking risks for love.
And if things don't work out, you're usually not too much worse for the wear!
You would make a great entrepreneur, marketing executive, or actor.
At work, you need a lot of freedom to pursue your own path and vision.
How you see yourself: Analytical, creative, and peaceful
When other people don't get you, they see you as: Detached, wishy-washy, and superficial What's Your Personality Type?

Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrat are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd.
- Edith Sitwell
