just did something fun..its like 80% accurate. I was surprised. Haha. Go do!

you chose BZ - your Enneagram type is FIVE.
"I need to understand the world"

Observers have a need for knowledge and are introverted, curious, analytical, and insightful.

How to Get Along with Me
Be independent, not clingy.
Speak in a straightforward and brief manner.
I need time alone to process my feelings and thoughts.
Remember that If I seem aloof, distant, or arrogant, it may be that I am feeling uncomfortable.
Make me feel welcome, but not too intensely, or I might doubt your sincerity.
If I become irritated when I have to repeat things, it may be because it was such an effort to get my thoughts out in the first place.
don't come on like a bulldozer.
Help me to avoid my pet peeves: big parties, other people's loud music, overdone emotions, and intrusions on my privacy.

What I Like About Being a Five
standing back and viewing life objectively
coming to a thorough understanding; perceiving causes and effects
my sense of integrity: doing what I think is right and not being influenced by social pressure
not being caught up in material possessions and status (no leh, i'm a shopaholic)
being calm in a crisis

What's Hard About Being a Five
being slow to put my knowledge and insights out in the world
feeling bad when I act defensive or like a know-it-all
being pressured to be with people when I don't want to be
watching others with better social skills, but less intelligence or technical skill, do better professionally

Fives as Children Often
spend a lot of time alone reading, making collections, and so on
have a few special friends rather than many
are very bright and curious and do well in school (erm, are u sure?=D)
have independent minds and often question their parents and teachers
watch events from a detached point of view, gathering information
assume a poker face in order not to look afraid
are sensitive; avoid interpersonal conflict
feel intruded upon and controlled and/or ignored and neglected

Fives as Parents
are often kind, perceptive, and devoted
are sometimes authoritarian and demanding
may expect more intellectual achievement than is developmentally appropriate
may be intolerant of their children expressing strong emotions

just wanna rant abt some trival thing tt happened earlier on the bus, i was on my way home on 147..when this lady with curly long hair sat next to me with her friend. My god, heaven knows when did she brush her teeth! I was jolted out of my comfortable snooze when she started to open her mouth and talk to her friend! Faint. Not once that i smelled tt waft of rancid air okay. I was wishing that she would just keep quiet, but no=( . Its made it way up my nose for 6 times before i decided to lift my butt and scoot to the upper deck instead. Horrors.
