Mantras

  • Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you.
    -- Jean-Paul Sartre
  • I'm Nobody! Who are you?
    Are you—Nobody—Too?
    Then there's a pair of us!
    Don't tell! they'd advertise—you know!

    How dreary—to be—Somebody!
    How public—like a Frog—
    To tell one's name—the livelong June—
    To an admiring Bog!
    --Emily Dickinson

    Follow up to the Myers-Briggs (edited)

    This was going around with the Myers-Briggs test I took a little while ago, but I was too lazy to do it then. My multiple intelligences are:

    For some reason it's left off Bodily/Kinesthetic, which is 15% (and SO not a surprise!). And after ten years in grad school and umpteen years to teaching, isn't it a shock to see how highly I scored on Verbal/Linguistic? :-P

    ETA: since it seems to be Day O' Memes, here's another one, that I post just because it amused the heck out of me.

    Your Score: Older Futhark

    You scored

    Language of the Norse, Older Futhark! Thirty symbols, all told. And no hardier, more warrior-like tongue has ever graced the longships of the Viki or left the Celts and Saxons in such quivering fear. There's only one drawback, that being you died 800 years ago.

    This is going to sound crazy but I just got why people like the Myers Briggs test so much. All day long I kept thinking about how I am an introvert. I'm an introvert! That explains so much! (I'm very outgoing which is why the fact I am an introvert is so revelatory.)

    Hee. Yes, I have the same thing - people are always surprised when I say I'm an introvert, because I'm outgoing and chatty (to a fault, often!), but man, being around people exhausts me!
