routine life

Apparently my personality type is a Engaged Idealist:

Engaged Idealists are extroverted and helpful. Others find them to be very congenial and inspiring - especially as they are always willing to see the best in the other person. Their humour, their energy and their optimism attract other people. Engaged Idealists are very good at communicating and are good at convincing and firing on others. That is why it is a matter of course that they often take over the leading role in groups. This personality type often produces very charismatic persons.

Engaged Idealists have an unusually strong ability to empathise. They are tolerant and generous towards others; they sometimes tend to idealise their friends. They always try to suit everybody and want their relationships to be harmonious and satisfactory. To achieve this, they are prepared to invest a great deal and to put their requirements last. As Engaged Idealists are very considerate, there is the danger of them sacrificing and overexerting themselves for others. In their job, they therefore have to be very careful not to develop a burnout syndrome.

Engaged Idealists are reliable, well organised and love structuring complicated situations. They have difficulty accepting criticism; they quickly feel hurt and misunderstood. Their perfectionism also influences their love life - they look for the perfect relationship for life. Once they have made their decision, they are faithful, well-balanced and loving partners. However, should they get involved with the wrong person, it can happen that they allow themselves to be exploited for a long time before they end the relationship.

I think that describes me pretty well. I love little personality quizzes.

So my life has been good :) I've actually been productive on my thesis this week :) And I went climbing to the pub on Wednesday and worked. Work has actually been great this week. Denise and Sharon are now both full time for the summer and Dave has been on holiday this week, and it has been super quiet. So the three of us just sit and talk and drink tea. Also with the girls now working, it isn't just me in the office for 4 days, and until I go home I'm back to my 25 hours a week, so I can get my thesis done.

I moved into my bigger room downstairs today :) Had to majorly clean it before I could move anything down here, but it is nice and I'm definitely spoiled with a double bed for the summer. Now the little room upstairs is where I will be writing my thesis because during the summer the library closes at 4.45, so pretty much most of my time won't be in the library. Oh well. Kara moved into her house, so now she is like 1 minute away. YAY! Also, Brenda, the other girl in my house is super nice. So I am looking forward to a good summer living here. The only annoying thing right now is a TON of stuff was left in the house, like food, video games and such and I don't know if the guys are coming to get it or what? I just want to clean the kitchen and sitting room properly, but don't know what to do with it all. GAH!

So I still don't know how I feel about the democratic primary news from this week. While I am a Hillary supporter, I think the primary mess had been going on for too long, every week at work Dave and I would discuss it. So even though I think she is the stronger Democratic candidate, the party was completely split and she did the right thing by stopping. I don't know if her as the VP would be a good idea. I like Obama, I just don't know about him as President. I don't think he knows enough and is ready, but he did do a great job of getting people out to vote. I just don't know. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next few weeks.
