estp/entp

I took a personality test for work.... so of course I wanted Ben to take it too. It's the Jung - Myers-Briggs personality test, and it gives you a better understanding of how an individual comprehends information and basically views the world around them. Super interesting!! (for me at least...)

Ben's typology is ESTP. Extraverted, Sensing, Thinking, Percieving. Reading through his type, I found a few things that seem to be right on. For example:
  • spontaneous, and tend to act on their impulses
  • tend to have gut feelings with timing and luck
  • demand new challenges in work and play
  • ever optimistic that things will go their way
  • like to walk on the edge of danger, like to take risks
  • great entrapenuers
  • charming, with lots of stories and jokes to tell
My typology is ENTP. Extraverted, iNtuition, Thinking, Percieving. A few of the things mentioned in my typology seem pretty spot on too. Such as:
  • love to play devil's advocate simply for argument's sake
  • clever with problem solving, strategic, generate ideas quickly
  • optimistic, adaptable, spontaneous
  • very much in the here and now, tend to not plan ahead but just jump in and adapt in the moment
  • show little patience with people believed to be wrong or unintelligent
  • drive to understand the world around them
  • jump from one idea to the next as they become no longer interested in them

In conclusion....... both Ben and I are optimistic, adaptable, and spontaneous. WHICH IS GREAT!! I think that's probably why we have been together for so long-- we are constantly keeping each other on our toes, and basically entertaining the crap outta one another :) We should definitly work on some long term planning though, since neither of us seems to be very strong in that arena.

p.s. we are headed to fort myers, fl early friday morning!!! it's in the mid-70's and sunny there. and it has been snowing all freaking day here. i am rather excited. mostly because my birthday is thursday and sunny vaca starts friday.


ben's watching tv... and the tv just said "is today your day?" obviously, yes. yes it is. i highlighted my hair and i feel fine.


AND I got the cute bridesmaid possibility dress in the mail today. Of course I tried it on right away.... but it is pretty much a size too big for me so I can't really tell what it is going to look like. I need a bridesmaid, pronto. Pretty stinking cute though.

xoxo,
