Personality....

So I did this personality test thing online at http://www.signalpatterns.com/ and I have to admit, it's pretty accurate. I love doing things like this, because I like to see how well I really know myself as well as discovering new things about myself. So here are the results and these are only the top ten traits which relate to me:


Friendly
You would rather hang out with others than spend time alone, and you'd far rather be doing something with your friends than just sitting around. You're happy in a crowded room, club, stadium, or auditorium.
You're not a private person who is ill at ease in a group; you don't view excessive socializing as a waste of time.

Accessible
You're comfortable expressing yourself in words and actions, with no self-censorship. You believe that if someone doesn't like what they see it's not your problem, but theirs.
You don't see the need to keep your thoughts to yourself, or to have a zone of privacy that encompasses only yourself and a small circle of friends and relatives.
A high score on the "accessible" trait suggests that you have a lot of friends, socialize often, and enjoy rap/hip-hop music.

Innovative
You come up with a lot of ideas; if one doesn't work out, there's always another waiting in the wings. You often have interesting solutions to difficult problems. You're practically a one-person brainstorming session.
You are less interested changing the world than in dealing with things as they are. Unlike those who spend all their time trying to solve problems, you prefer to zero in on things that work and stick with them.

Creative
You are good at solving problems, coming up with original ideas, and seeing connections between things, connections that most other people miss.
You do not shun abstractions and concepts in favor of the concrete and tangible.
People with a high score on the "creative" trait often are employed in such fields as finance and scientific research, and enjoy avant garde and classical music as well as literary fiction and scholarly non-fiction.

Curious
You like to get to the bottom of things. You're not content knowing what someone did; you want to know why they did it.
You don't simply take things as they are and move on; you're not content skimming along on the surface; you don't feel you're wasting time by digging for the meaning of things.

Poised
You tend to feel at home wherever you find yourself, even in unfamiliar settings, with new people. It takes a lot to rattle you, and when rattled you recover quickly and gracefully.
You are usually not self-conscious or nervous when you're in an unfamiliar environment or with people you don't know.

Calm
You rarely become irritated, generally accept people as they are, take things as they come, and feel relaxed in most situations.
You do not let a minor annoyance escalate to a confrontation. You don't regularly snap at those around you or fly off the handle with little provocation.

Aesthetic
You appreciate art, beauty, and design; you know that they are not superficial but absolutely crucial to living the good life. You have good taste, and you're proud of it.
You don't think it's pretentious to be moved by art and beauty. You're not one of those who believe it doesn't matter what something looks like as long as it does its job.
Those with a high score on the "aesthetic" trait are often employed in literary or artistic professions, enjoy domestic activities — doing things around the house — and are enthusiastic about the arts, reading, and travel.

Intellectual
You are thoughtful, rational, and comfortable in the world of ideas. People find you interesting to talk to. You're the living embodiment of the saying "You learn something new every day."
You do not avoid abstract conversation, experimenting with new ideas, or studying new things. It bores you to stick to the straight and narrow of what you already know.
In general, those with a high score on the "intellectual" trait are employed in such fields as teaching and research, and are enthusiastic about reading, foreign films, and classical music.

Original
You are constantly coming up with new ideas. For you, the world as it exists is just a jumping-off place; what's going on inside your mind is often more interesting than what's going on outside.
You don't feel that the road to success is to be a realist and stick to the program; you never stop yourself from coming up with new ideas or telling the world what you're thinking about.

New Music "Slow Burn Treason"

One thing I love to do is discover new music. I use various sites and am pretty sucessful at finding new stuff. Awhile back I found this song "Slow Burn Treason" by Holly Miranda ft Kyp Malone. I have been obesessed with the song and listening to it nonstop. The other night I literally listened to it on repeat for like an hour ahha. It's just so captivating. I wish I knew what the lyrics were so I could sing along better, but since it's not really released yet, it's not really all over the internet. Supposedly, it will be released later this year. Aaaah I can't wait!!! So if you're interested, follow the link below.

Spiders!!

So lastnight I had this crazy dream and it ended with a spider, specifically a trantula on my body. I'm not gonna get into the whole dream, but I don't know why a spider would be in my dream, becuase I'm not really afraid of them or anything. I was intrigued and decided to look up the meaning of a spider in a dream, So I went to dreammoods.com and found this:



Spiders: To see a spider in your dream, indicates that you are feeling like an outsider in some situation. Or that you may want to keep your distance and stay away from an alluring and tempting situation. The spider is also symbolic of feminine power. Alternatively, a spider may refer to a powerful force protecting you against your self-destructive behavior. If you kill a spider, it symbolizes misfortune and general bad luck.


To see a spider spinning a web in your dream, signifies that you will be rewarded for your hard work. You will soon find yourself promoted in your job or recognized for your achievement in a difficult task. Spiders are a symbol of creativity due to the intricate webs they spin. On a negative note, spiders may indicate a feeling of being entangled or trapped in a sticky or clingy relationship.�It represents some ensnaring and controlling force. You may feel that someone or some situation is sucking the life right out of you. Alternatively, if a spider is spinning a web in your dream, then it could be a metaphor for the world wide web and global communication.
To see a spider climbing up a wall in your dream, denotes that your desires will be soon be realized.


To dream that you are bitten by a spider, represents a conflict with your mother or some dominant female figure in your life. The dream may be a metaphor for a devouring mother or the feminine power to possess and entrap. Perhaps you are feeling trapped by some relationship.

Web To see a web in your dream, represents your desire to control everything around you. Alternatively, it suggests that you are being held back from fully expressing yourself. You feel trapped and do not know what to do or where to go. The dream may also be symbolic of your social network of acquaintances and associates or it may represent the world wide web.

And in my dream I think I was bitten by a spider, and reading the part about biting doesn't really make sense, b/c there are no problems b/w my mom and I. However, it might relate to other relationships. So I'm not sure what to make of it, but it was definitely an interesting dream.

A Poem I Wrote For Class

Secrets linger on my mind,
The temptaion to share them is gone.
I'm stuck in this moment and nothing is going to change.
Maybe I should go to the emergency room,
Where I can almost die and figure out my life
Build up my faith again and believe that dreams do come true.
But time moves so quick, it's hard to express what I'm going through.
I wanna feel alive so you can be the sunshine in my night sky
and give me something to look forward to.
Just that thought makes me happy.
But my inspiration has run dry
And everyhting has become a little too personal.
So I've decided that sometimes it's better in the dark,
And that the truth is sometimes better left unsaid.

Turning in my Graphic Design Portfolio

So today was a big day for me. I had to turn in my graphic design portfolio for review and hopefully acceptance into the graphic design program at my school. Over the past year and a half I have worked so hard on all my art. Lastnight I spent 4 hours putting together my portfolio, basically just making sure everything looked presentable. Presentation is a HUGE part of the whole review. I mounted all my stuff on foam core board and then borrowed plstic sleeves from my friend and placed my art in them. All together I turned in 12 pieces, including stuff from drawing, 2d design, printmaking, Intro to GD, and I threw in some photography. I also had to include my transcript and an essay telling why I want to be a graphic designer. I am really nervous about the outcome and I hope to God that I make it. I hate the idea that I have to wait like 3 weeks to find out, but I guess that's how life goes.
