Your Score: Big Bird


You scored 83% Organization, 45% abstract, and 77% extroverted!



This test measured 3 variables.

First, this test measured how organized you are. Some muppets like Cookie Monster make big messes, while others like Bert are quite anal about things being clean.

Second, this test measured if you prefer a concrete or an abstract viewpoint. For the purposes of this test, concrete people are considered to gravitate more to mathematical and logical approaches, whereas abstract people are more the dreamers and artistic type.

Third, this test measured if you are more of an introvert or an extrovert. By definition, an introvert concentrates more on herself and an extrovert focuses more on others. In this test an introvert was somebody that either tends to spend more time alone or thinks more about herself.

You are very organized, both concrete and abstract, and more extroverted.

Here is why are you Big Bird.

You are both very organized. You almost always know where your belongings are and you prefer things neat. You may even enjoy cleaning and find it therapeutic. Big Bird is never sloppy and always under control... pretty good for a 6 year old bird living without a family.

You both are sometimes concrete and sometimes abstract thinkers. Big Bird can be quite dreamy at times and has no problem using his imagination. At the same time he is also practical and can be methodical in his search for answers to questions. You have a good balance in your life. You know when to be logical at times, but you also aren't afraid to explore your dreams and desires... within limits of course.

You are both extroverts. Big Bird gets along with everyone. He makes friends easily and always has a positive attitude. You definitely enjoy the company of others, and you don't have problems meeting new people... in fact you probably look forward to it. You are willing to take charge when necessary or work as part of a team.


The other possible characters are
Oscar the Grouch
Bert
Snuffleupagus
Ernie
Elmo
Kermit the Frog
Grover
Cookie Monster
Guy Smiley
The Count

If you enjoyed this test, I would love the feedback! Also if you want to tell me your favorite Sesame Street character, I can total them up and post them here. Perhaps your choice will win!

I took Jimmy Kiel and Co. to Madison for a regatta on Saturday and I sat out in the sun from 7am until 6pm. I put sunscreen on three times. I am still burned to a crisp. My forehead, nose, lip and chin actually blistered. And then they popped and I had goo running down my face. It was so sexy. Now I'm all scabby and my arms and cheeks are still really, really burned. Not fun. Everyone looks at me like I'm a leper (but I look like one, so I'm not surprised).

I also got a haircut last week. Took 5-6 inches off. It's still growing on me - I feel a lot less fun or sexy with this cut - it's more preppy and frumpy than cute and sexy. But I wanted a change and now I got it. It is cute when I put it up in a pony tail. But now I know I want to grow it out again, and it'll look cute as it grows out.

I am going to Lawrence fore reading period and Frear's birthday. Hoping that it'll be a fun time.

I got an email from Marquette a couple days ago - they've upped my admission offer to full assistantship, meaning that for the first two years guarenteed, I won't have to pay a cent. And most likely the third year as well, or only half or 1/4 of my tuition. All I have to do is work 20 hours a week for the department doing teaching assistant stuff, or research assistant stuff. I'm excited. I've got a roommate already, Mel Ufkin, and we're working on apartments as we speak.
So I've officially been sick for over a month, so am seeing an ENT guy today to see what he can do. My allergist is a sexist patronizer, and so I've basically written him off as someone who can help me. I'm thinking about switching, but given that I don't regularly have to see him, it might not be worth it. We'll see. I had a CT done of my sinuses last week, and there are three "mucus-retaining cysts" in my sinuses. Don't know if those are causing problems or not, but I'm betting that the building I work in and this crappy weather hasn't been helping. I'm on my third round of medication, and this one seems to be working better than the other two - my skin is going nuts, but at least my head is starting to drain a little and my ears don't feel like they're going to explode all the time.
It's April and it's snowing in Chicago . . . I love the midwest.
Back to work . . . can't procrastinate forever.

04:00 pm - bored again
You Are Low Maintenance

Otherwise known as "too good to be true"
You're one laid back chica - and men love that!
Just remember that no good guy likes a dormat.
So if you find your self going along to get along...
Stop yourself and put up a little bit of a fight.


Men See You As Playful

Men want a challenge and you are the perfect playmate
You know how to push men's buttons and attract a wide range of guys
You enjoy living and loving - it's one of your most attractive qualities
Men are often consumed with desire for you, and you love that!

Ok, so I'm thinking of doing something with someone that I said I'd never do that thing with again . . . I don't know if I should just give up on it and allow myself to go into it knowing that I'm going to get kicked on my ass again, or try really hard not to even though I really want to? I should just treat him like a piece of chocolate - if I think I've deserved it (or even if I really don't) I'll still have it, and maybe or maybe not regret it later when it goes straight to my thighs).
