God I loved that movie... the burning happy face on the side of the building... all the little fascist space monkeys running around going "Yes sir! Rule one of Project Mayhem is do not ask questions, sir!"... Jack realizing even the COPS were in on it... too funny!

Here's a simple personality quiz I've seen several times.

Supposedly Dr. Phil gave it to Oprah and she got a 38.

I've taken it three times, the most recent one being today.

I got: 41, then 39, then 43.

41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you
as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful &practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken.

Sometime between 5:30 and 5:40 pm

I was driving South on Highway 85 (San Jose), somewhere between the Saratoga exit and the 17 junction, wading through traffic, when I realized what I wanted to do with my life. What I wanted to study.

It came with a sweeping sense of satisfaction. All through school, since 1st grade, I've never had a clear thought on what I wanted to be. It was always at least four or five different things, sometimes as many as seven. No matter how many times or by whom I was asked, it was the same vague answer, all the way up to yesterday.

I want to study political science. I want to study sociology. I want to have a career in the political arena in some form-- be it a lobbyist, a consultant, a speech-writer. Any number of things. I want so badly to affect the world around me and to help change the things I think are wrong in the world, and to further the things that are worth keeping, worth defending.

And I'm good at it. I'm good at presenting my opinions, good at convincing people to see things my way, good at arguing a case that's worth arguing.

At one point I wanted to be a lawyer. I've had people tell me I'd be a great lawyer. At one point I wanted to be in the FBI. But I realized I want to do more expansive things than that-- to affect things in a bigger way. And I'm so passionate about politics. I want to be involved, in some way, in how my society is run, in how things change.

I'm still four years of schooling away from a career of any kind... I get that. But at least now-- now I know what I want. My problems in high school were from not caring about what I was learning-- not knowing what I wanted, and thus not feeling any deep down need to study for it.

But I want something now. I have ambition.

This is a Good Thing.
