AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Two words: HIGH SCHOOL! I actually am quite enjoying high school, but It sucks timeout your life until you nothing left but a raisin of a teenager. It's got my brain scrambled, but I'm skating by. I apologize for not writing in a large chunk of time. Every activity these days requires a lot of commitment. For those who haven't seen me awhile, I'm doing good. I'm still doing law stuff, acting, hip-hop, and lacrosse. Are you guys liking high school? I'm sad that I rarely get to see some of my old friends, I don't get to see a lot of friends because my classes are weird (not enough freshman).





My random topic o' the day: The refrigerator test (from http://www.personalityquiz.net)
You will be asked four questions and you must rely on your common sense to answer them correctly. According to Andersen consulting worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all of the questions wrong. But many pre-school children got several correct answers. Andersen consulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four year old.

Q1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?




Correct Answer
Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe and close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way.

Q2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?




Wrong Answer:
Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant and close the refrigerator. Correct Answer:
Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. This tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your actions.

Q3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend, except one. Which animal does not attend?




Correct Answer:
The elephant, since it is still in the refrigerator. This tests your memory. Even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your abilities.

Q4. There is a river you must cross, but it is inhabited by crocodiles. How do you manage it?




Correct Answer:
You swim across. All of the crocodiles are attending the meeting!
This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.





TEST#2:
What shape do you most indentify with? Which one do you like best?
Squares feel most comfortable with a stable environment and clear directions on what to do. They are conservative and like things that are regular and orderly. If given a task they will work on it until it is finished, even if it is repetitious, cumbersome and lonely.
Rectangles like structure and regularity. But they will better establish it with organization, meetings, committees and so forth. This will have to be done the proper way, taking all rules and regulations into consideration. If given a task they will start organizing it to be sure it can be done the most systematic way.
Triangles are goal oriented. They enjoy planning something out and then doing it. They get motivated by the accomplishment. They will tend to look at long-term issues, but might forget the details. When given a task they will set a goal and work on a plan for it.
Circles are social and communicative. No hard edges. They handle things by talking about them and smoothing things out with everybody. Communication is the first priority, and making sure there is harmony. When given a task they will talk about it.
Squiggles are off-the-wall and creative. They feel best doing new things and get bored with regularity. When given a task they will come up with bright ideas about it.

The square, rectangle and triangle are all convergent. They are working towards something specific and finite, and they do it in a logical and systematic way. But they might be lacking in personal creativity.
The circle and squiggle are divergent. They are creative, extroverted, and intuitive. They will reach out around them into new areas and to other people. But they aren't particularly systematic or dependable.
This categorization is very useful for evaluating people for job positions or for finding out how well people will work together. If you really need something specific done, the square is most likely to do it exactly as specified. Squares will work great in the accounting department. If things need to be organized amongst a group of people, then the rectangle is most likely to make that happen. A triangle might be a good executive, setting goals and making sure they are met. The circle will be good at public relations. If anything new is needed a squiggle is the person for the job. Advertising, problem solving etc.





P.S. School friends- help the spirit! Remember- Wednesday is tie-dye day; Thursday is Hogwarts House colors; and Friday is school spirit day and homecoming! And congrats to those who had it in them to go crazy for 80's day!
