Personality.

Well, I figured out why I keep getting "Melancholic" as my result on personality tests. It is not, in fact, that I'm too phlegmatic to take a stupid test, it it because I have both and outward and inward personality. Inside of the chocolate truffle that is me, I am flavored Phlegmatic-sanguine, but I have a Melancholic outer shell. I always thought I was Phlegmatic-Melancholic, but it turns out, I am not. The Sanguine part of me is very influenced by certain other people. For example, say there is a person who I don't really like but I think they're okay. Well, someone mentions how annoying they are, and then I start noticing it, and I start thinking they're annoying. And then it gets to the point where everything they say is annoying. But I am mostly Phlegmatic. I'm not as affected by things as most people, and I barely ever get mad. But there are certain things that make me mad so easily. Actually, pretty much only one thing. Annoyingly Hyperactive people. There is a big difference between people who are hyper, and people who are hyper AND annoying. That's why I have so much trouble with Peter. He can't help it, he's got ADHD, but it annoys me to the death. So...yes. Even Phlegmatics have their personality clashes. Another part of my personality is that, though I might be sort of unaffected by most things, there are some things that I have stronger opinions on. That is me in a nutshell. Or..chocolate truffle shell. And now I feel like going to Legacy.

Uh oh... does this mean that you think I'm annoying?? But since I say that, don't start noticing the annoying things I do... :)

no, it's not you. There are only about 3 people who suddenly have gotten very annoying with me. I won't mention their names, though. And only one of them is near our age.

.....40%..raspberry....?

Mary said...

And do you actually want one? Cuz I could get you one for Christmas.

Frannie said...

But what percent chocolate are YOU? I only like the dark stuff....

Also, I think a negative opinion of someone is a common result of negative conversation about them, not necessarily a personality thing. Not like it's your fault because you didn't start it, but that's why it's good to try to divert or ignore those conversations all together - annoying people are much more tolerable if you keep it to yourself! (at least in my experience...)
