The Optimist Speaks Up

This post will be headed by the optimistic, motivated part of myself and I will leave her be. Whatever comes out of this post may be disclaimed by the pessimist side of me in due time. I will still be liable to whatever I say here and it can be used against me in the future.

"You can try," I whisper to myself as I browse through the website of the NMAT, the National Medical Admission Test, that is the sole ticket to entering Philippine medical schools in the country.

Again, the bouts of sudden inspiration sprang up momentarily and I enjoy the moment by basking in the wonderful possibilities of seeing myself as a great person with a lot to offer in the world.

I stop for a moment. "What if I fail the test?" Well, as far as my Google research knows, I could retake the test, but I could also continue with my plan to get that master's degree in Marine Science.

Whichever comes first, I don't think there's any harm in trying. It would be nice to take the risk and cherish the adrenaline rush while I still have it.

They say studying medicine is a calling. She's ringing the phone again and she's waiting for me to answer.

INTP or INTJ?

Image
Took online tests for my personality type (The Myers-Briggs ones) The first I took is also the same one I took last year. I still got the same result; INTJ. (Mastermind)  (my older sister agrees with this) I took another test (Jung; which is more complicated-looking cause it's those accuracy tests rated from 1-5, the first one I took only had those yes/no questions) my result was INTP (Architect), but before that I sort of guessed the other questions since I can't register the words "introspective" and "spontaneous" and some other words in my mind. So I went back and took the test again then I got INTJ and  INTP. (50:50) I read the descriptions for both of them, I could be any. I'm confused. Anyway, it's only them to choose from. Though I'm still not sure which one is really me.  I read some differences between them in some sites... and I couldn't make up my mind. At some times I could be INTP, some times I could be INTJ.  [EDIT:] I tried ano

One close look at an INTJ

Hi. Let's get to the point. I've been to so many sites about the 16 personality types by Myerrs-Briggs and Jung and I don't know who else to put. I'm going to focus on the INTJ and some compatibilities with ENFP, INFP and ISFP people. (Based on how I get along with them, anyway. Don't know about you.) So, here are some INTJ stuff (that even INTP's, INFJ's, ISFP's, INFP's might have): Want to be the best as much as possible, even though it almost looks impossible Would enjoy being alone in a silent place than being with a lot of people in a noisy place. (Introvert characteristics) You would unleash your wit whenever you feel like it. You don't like showing people your work unless you're close friends with them and you think that they  will think greatly of your work. You're close with the smartest person you know but you only go to him/her when you want to ask something you don't under

Probably some of you've seen Himaruya's India character by now. I really wanted India to appear as a girl, maybe because of the name, or because I'd want gender equality or something. So, I decided to make a Fem!India myself. Click for full view~ The clothes may be incorrect, please excuse that. India OC (c) Me
