maybe should talk about myself today..this shall be the compensation i told u peeps about in the previous posts..
after spacing out in front of my laptop for about 15mins,i decided not to write about myself.mostly because i don't even know myself..
so i ended up taking a personality test.hhaha.indesiciveness.one of my not so good traits..
the result
3 points for sanguine
3 points for choleric
15 points for phlegmatic
and 19 points for melancholy.
so i guess i'm a phlegmatic-melancholic person..

(I'll keep the "weakness" list short because the Melancholy may tend to dwell on the negatives.)
Of all the personality types, the Melancholy probably struggles the most with a low self image because they have set such high standards for themselves and others.
Words count with a Melancholy. Every word that comes their way will be replayed in their mind and analyzed for meaning. Their feelings are easily hurt. They have to work hard to keep from falling into a spirit of offense. It helps the Melancholy to stop and ask "did they mean to hurt my feelings?" or "could I be reading too much into what they said?" It also helps to simply echo back comments that are potentially hurtful and make sure that you haven't interpreted them wrong.
Those who have Melancholy people close to them should drop generalizations from their vocabulary. Words like "always" and "never" will not be appreciated. If at all possible, drop the volume of your voice and keep your tone friendly. If you are in a bad mood, take care that you do not drip your negativity on them, they will take it personal and be wondering all day what they did wrong.
A Melancholy can become easily isolated. It's a good thing to keep in touch and give them a lot of positive feedback and personal affirmation.
Melancholies think all the time. When they get quiet, watch out... Don't be afraid to ask them if everything is alright. Depending on where they are on the road to spiritual maturity, they may not tell you what is really wrong, but be persistent. If you get the feeling that they have been offended by something that you said, just say so. "Did I hurt you when I said..."
Phlegmatic and Sanguine people do not usually have too many problems getting along with the Melancholy. But the Choleric can be a bit rough on them, so they will have to try to tone it down and develop their sensitivity.
after reading this article i feel that i really am a melancholy.
i agree on the part that says that when they give you compliments,they mean it..coz i do that all the time.
if i think that you have done well,i'll compliment u.if not,i'll just smile at what u did.i don't like complimenting peeps when i don't mean it.it'll be indirectly lowering their standards.not a good thing to do~
i am appreciative to beauty too.i love art and music.*imagine a world without them,i won't be able to live* i'm also quite idealistic.i have my own views and theories about how the world should go round and i want everyone to stick to my plan.that's why i get irritated and offended easily by what others do that is not according to my 'perfect world plan'.
and for the weaknesses,i do tend to slip into depression..sometimes i kinda have plans to ask my parents to take me to a psychologist.i need some counseling.hha.
getting caught up easily on details is also one of my weaknesses.what others see as just a small matter can look so humongous in my eyes.for example,i hate to see peeps who have messy handwritings.although it won't really affect me,i still don't like it and will tell the person to change his handwriting..
for the 'word counts' part,i also agree alot.because i tend to remember everything peeps say.so please be careful when talking to me.i hold grudges a lot.hha.when u say something that other peeps won't think of it as something serious,i think of it seriously and continuously.again and again and again and again..just like 2PM's song.
my friends suffer a lot because of this personality of mine.hha.sorry guys,can't change what i am.
so i ended up telling things about myself after all.so this is part of my compensation to u peeps then.hha
and no Korean Corner today.*some of u must be saying,'thank God.'hha*
ttfn. ♥♥♥
