------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After taking the personality test and reading the description of my personality type, I have concluded that it is pretty true to form. This was not the first time that I have a taken a test of this nature, and every time I have ever taken it, I always come up with the same type. As far as my learning and writing styles are concerned, there were a few things that I felt didn’t really describe me, but for the most part, it fit me very well.

Having been very shy and introverted all my life, I have a strong tendency toward wanting to blend into the background. I don’t really enjoy being called on to speak in class and rarely offer my opinion without having first thought my idea out thoroughly. In my writing I am constantly reading and rereading what I have written to edit mistakes and find better, clearer ways of saying something. My best writing is done when I have time to think my ideas out completely. However, my tendency toward procrastination and having a lack of motivation to get things started usually forces me to turn in work that I am not altogether proud of. I like assignments that require multiple drafts before the final paper is due. I don’t particularly follow directions well, and I don’t like it when there is a very specific formula that I’m expected to follow, so I do much better when the directions are loose and interpretive. I focus mostly on ideas and possibilities and forget to back it up with facts. I have a very strong to tendency to write about how I feel or let my emotions guide my writing in some way. My imagination sometimes runs wild and it’s hard to stay grounded in reality. I think this is where my short attention span makes sense. While it is supposed to be an extroverted quality, this is one of my greatest downfalls. It’s hard for me to stay focused on one idea and I tend to go off on tangents or write about very broad topics to include all of my side topics. There are times, though, when I feel very passionate about a subject and my feelings are so specific and strong that I become hyper focused on one very specific topic or detail. I’m a bit of a perfectionist in many ways, but very disorganized, so it’s hard for me to express my ideas as perfectly as I would like. There are many things in life that I just get without understanding why, and I’m really bad at explaining them to other people because it’s hard for me to understand why they don’t get it also. My explanation tends to be very vague even when my understanding is very deep, and a lot of time people take this to mean that I don’t really know what I’m talking about.
