Yep, I already knew that.
As seen on Sarah's and Audrey's blogs. I particularly enjoyed the titles of these friends' posts, respectively, "because sometimes you just have to do a silly personality test: I have a Phlegmatic personality" and "i took this quiz on the internet, so it has to be true."
My wholly unsurprising results:
You Have a Melancholic Temperament |
 Introspective and reflective, you think about everything and anything. You are a soft-hearted daydreamer. You long for your ideal life. You love silence and solitude. Everyday life is usually too chaotic for you. Given enough time alone, it's easy for you to find inner peace. You tend to be spiritual, having found your own meaning of life. Wise and patient, you can help people through difficult times. At your worst, you brood and sulk. Your negative thoughts can trap you. You are reserved and withdrawn. This makes it hard to connect to others. You tend to over think small things, making decisions difficult. |

Apparently I'm also a melancholic. Who knew?

You know I just re-took this test this week and tested out as a Melancholic Choleric.... I think something strange is happening with me. Then just retaking it, I tested out Choleric again!!! What is happening is 1 of three options: 1. It is a grad school thing 2. It is a freak of nature thing, or 3. it is another thing I can not think of right now.
Ideas anyone?

PS. Beths, that woman kind of looks like you?

Lou - I wondered if anyone would notice. I actually posed for that drawing a few months ago. It's exciting to see your likeness in print.

Beths, I think it was the hair that made me wonder if she was you. Is this a new part time after school job?

Somehow, five questions does not seem like enough to determine my temperament.
I'm choleric (evidently).

so kate is moving away for a few months and it's really sad.

Loubella, no sanguine in there at all? What has happened? I would agree with Anne that having just five questions is silly, silly, silly.
