Personality-tests

Interested in learning more abut yourself and improve?
This cite was awesome and gave me something to think about:
The tests are based on the theories by different psychologers such as Carl G Jung , Maslow and Freud + +

A picture of me ;)

Personalitytests

WOW! This cite was a lot of fun!
Some even based on Jungian and Freudian psychology

Similarminds.com


One of my results:
Personality traits:
More verbal than non verbal, does not like to go long without speaking to anyone, loves night life activities and crowds, trusting, self expressive, not the best listener, action oriented, if they had to live their life over again they would not change much, dresses to stand out, seductive, very sexual, does not fear getting involved with others, female extroverts like tight fitting clothing, have more desire than fear, enjoys leadership, brutally honest, more random than controlled, impulsive, optimistic, motivated, exhibitionist tendencies.
More visual and intuitive, better at summarizing multiple points, picking up on what's not said, visualizing things, and making things up, can lack attention to detail, directness and organization.

(Not all of it very flattering, ha ha)

This one was very good:

Orgasm day

International Orgasm day - Aug 08


Happy Orgasm day everybody!
Go have fun!

Traveling and courage

I read this blog today that I really liked.
It was funny because it`s nice to see that somebody has the same attitudes and priorities as myself, when it comes to traveling.
I saw a comment in the first post, which made me laugh a little.
It said something about how impressing it was that he was living like that.
I find that funny because to me that sort of life has never been "impressing", it has been necessary.
to me it`s more impressing when some people live in the same country for 20 years and keep the same job (which they maybe not even like). Maybe not impressive in a good way, but I am really stunned about this way of living.
I once tried to have a "normal" job. Worked in a shop for toys (Thought it could be a little more fun, since I could be around kids etc...) It was a pain, I lasted in the job for 4 days, then I resigned.
My point is, to not travel and to not do exactly what my should leeds me to do, just kills me. I wouldn't survive.
So like when I went to the Caribbean for 8 months and lived there, and people found it impressive and thought I had a lot of courage, I just thought. "Would need a lot more strength and courage to stay in this cold (both socially and weathervise) country"
So, now I am soon off again. Just havent made up my mind 100%
I am thinking about Barcelona, but am a little uncertain, because it doesn't feel 100% right.
Maybe I should just pack up a little stuff and live a gypsylife just going where my heart leads me for a year?
or at least until my money runs out.

Secret present

Hmmm; I am in a lovely mood today.
I feel like a kid before Christmas - having secret presents hidden and waiting for me somewhere around the house.
Sometimes the feeling of having a present is better than actually opening it.
Or if you are waiting for a letter, the feeling when you see it in your mailbox, of taking it out and having it in your hands. The very seconds BEFORE you see its content and are opening it...
those seconds have a own deep sweetness.'

This day is like that to me.
I wonder if there actually is something in store for me now?
:)

A shower in complete darkness

Today I took a shower in the darkness, because the light was gone from the entire first floor.
I couldt see a thing, and it was weird feeling water pooring down on, me when I had no sense of direction of where it was coming from, just my hands to see with.
It was a little "scary", so of course I liked it
highly recommended to all of you out there, who wants to add a new touch to your daily routines in the bathroom

Stars

- Young and Old




Explanation: Galactic or open star clusters are relatively young swarms of bright stars born together near the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy. Separated by about a degree on the sky, two nice examples are M46 (upper left) 5,400 light-years in the distance and M47 (lower right) only 1,600 light-years away toward the nautical constellation Puppis. Around 300 million years young M46 contains a few hundred stars in a region about 30 light-years across. Aged 80 million years, M47 is a smaller but looser cluster of about 50 stars spanning 10 light-years. But this portrait of stellar youth also contains an ancient interloper. The small, colorful patch of glowing gas in M46 is actually the planetary nebula NGC 2438 - the final phase in the life of a sun-like star billions of years old. NGC 2438 is estimated to be only 3,000 light-years distant and likely represents a foreground object, only by chance appearing along our line of sight to youthful M46.


THE STARS


Now it is over. Now I awake.
And it is calm and easy to go,
when there is nothing left to expect
and nothing to suffer any more.

Red gold yesterday, dry leaf today.
Tomorrow nothing will be there.
But stars burn silently all around
tonight in the sky as before.

Now I want to give myself away,
so I have not a fragment left.
Say, stars, will you receive
a soul of treasures bereft?

With you is freedom without flaw
in peace of far eternities.
He never heaven empty saw
who gave you his battle and dreams


~Karin Boye

Sweet silence

Silence is in my mind
I feel nearly emotionally and mentally exhausted
It`s nice to just be all still
and float

Grasshoppers

Some times when I feel like I have tasted so much of life that it nearly drowns me in impressions
I fall down and things seems just empty
Then I wonder if this is me seeing through the illusions of life
Or if I just have a deep emtyness inside that comes up when nothing else can seem to fill it
Maybe we all do?

But it`s also at these times
I can hear the sound of a grasshopper
and it goes directly into my heart

BLOOD

I took a bloodtest today
I hate it
Seriously, if I am going to get blood sucked out of me I would prefer it to be from a vampire

Direction and happyness

I am very envious at people who seem to have a strong direction.
I have always been so confused about all the alternatives and different point of views that I have trouble staying at one thing and not jump further to try the next one.
I guess I have whished to meet somebody that was more stable, but who neede a littel more jumping aroundness and excitement in their life so we could help eachother out, ha ha!
I guess I will have to do the work myself, damnit, ha ha ha!
It`s alwasys a littel sour with self realisation and work, because then you can never takee the easy way out.
:)
Goodnight to all of the world.
I whish I could ligt 1000000000 candles and let it shine on you all.
I whish I could spread happyness and smiles everywhere!
..and I also whish I could fly

More accurate politics test.

EXPLAINING GRAPH:
Top side of graph: Authoritarian, facism
Bottom: Libertarian, anarcism
Left side: Left , communism, collectivism
Right side: Neo-liberalism, libertarianism


MY SCORE:
Libertarian socialist / liberal leftist



The basic philosophy of libertarian socialism is summed up in the name: management of the common good (socialism) in a manner that maximizes individual liberty and minimizes concentration of power or authority (libertarianism). Libertarian socialism denies the legitimacy of private property, since private property, in the form of capital, leads to the exploitation of others with less economic means and thus infringes on the exploited class's individual freedoms.

Other views I belive in which also are important in the context of Libertarian socialism:
Preference Utilitarianism /
Egaliteriansim

Deeper connections

Although I am an agnostic I have always been very drawn to different kinds of panteism and paganism. I feel that the life veiw, that sees the world as something highly connected together, appeals to me very much.
The belif that we are all like a big web, sown together with connecting strings - where every part is as important as the other and where all should be treated with equal respect.
I have been a vegetarian almost half of my life because of this belief, and I have always felt that it is important to see "the divine" in all of us - all of the world and nature. Even the darker and smaller sides of it all.

I am in a poetry-reading mood today and I found several of my favourites.
This is a a beautifull norwegian poem about the connection in love, life and universe, written by one of my favourite poets - Stein Mehren.

I hold your head

I hold your head
in my hands, as you hold
my heart in your affection
as everything holds and is
held by something other than itself
As the sea lifts a stone
to its strands, as the tree
holds the ripe fruit of autumn, as
the world is lifted through worlds and space
So are we both held by something and lifted
to where mystery holds mystery in its hand



JEG HOLDER DITT HODE

Jeg holder ditt hode
i mine hender, som du holder
mitt hjerte i din ømhet
slik allting holder og blir
holdt av noe annet enn seg selv
Slik havet løfter en sten
til sine strender, slik treet
holder høstens modne frukter, slik
kloden løftes gjennom kloders rom
Slik holdes vi begge av noe og løftes
dit gåte holder gåte i sin hånd.




The Pinwheel Galaxy
Credit: W. Keel (U. Alabama in Tuscaloosa), KPNO, 4-m Mayall Telescope

Explanation: Why do many galaxies appear as spirals? A striking example is M101, shown above, whose relatively close distance of about 22 million light years allow it to be studied in some detail. Recent evidence indicates that a close gravitational interaction with a neighboring galaxy created waves of high mass and condensed gas which continue to circle the galaxy. These waves compress existing gas and cause star formation. One result is that M101, also called the Pinwheel Galaxy, has several extremely bright star-forming regions (called HII regions) spread across its spiral arms. M101 is so large that its immense gravity distorts smaller nearby galaxies.
