Not that this is terribly interesting, but I needed a break from grading papers! We did personality tests in class...and mine came out as an INFJ. Originally that had me pegged as an extavert vs. introvert, but after discussing with the parents, we decided that I was an introvert that had learned to become rather extraverted in order to survive moving a lot!

Here a few websites that describe my personality. You can go through and try to guess yours...which is fascinating. In order to get the "official" results you have to take an MBTI test which is only done through a certified tester... which my professor happens to be! For those of you who always thought I was a little strange....Congrats! You were right as my personality type is the rarest.

It's been a lot of fun to learn about the different personality types. It has also been fun to get to know grad students and even their significant others. We hung out after the last class (me with my diet coke) and I had the joy of my life questioning to my hearts content Mike, the prof's hubby about his three degrees, Russia, and the political world at large! It has been so fun hanged out with people who have such diverse experiences!
