MBTI
Saturday, February 9
Hello hello hihi (:
For some random reason, the MBTI personality profile seems to be popping up in my recent conversations from time to time. I guess it does give quite some insight into the way people think, the things that guide their actions, and what would irk them quite considerably (cue Kevin and Justin undoing my bedsheets in Taiwan to my cries of horror). It did make me go back into reading up on all these again, since, you know, I'm too painfully bored in the office...
So after changing from an INFP to an ESFJ after a mere 2 year period in IB (I know, what the heck right? Hahaha!), I decided to see how a year in Necessary Service my personality. And the result?

Heh yea, so as you can see from the graphs, I didn't change much, except that the 'E' just barely tipped over to be an 'I' now. And they're both pretty much still 50/50! This E/I split of mine gets kinda annoying though... Like, I can have the exact same people, the exact same time of day, the exact same... ah you get what I mean! lots of controlled variables (WOW how long has it been since I used a scientific term??? That felt SO good!), wanting to meet on 2 independent instance. And yet, I can be wildly enthusiastic about one, while being less than excited about the other, all purely depending on whether the 'E' or 'I' chooses to display itself at that point of time. Meh, makes me unpredictable, and I'm not
too fond of unpredictability. But ah well, what to do, what to do?
I guess it's good that I didn't change much (: I mean, the IB years were ones of self-discovery and royal
bildungsroman-ish nonesuch (
Huck Finn reference, woot! I can actually remember stuff from it!), so it was only natural for things to change accordingly as I found my identity. Whereas now in Necessary Service, it's more about roughening the edges and all (from boys to men, as the political slogan goes). So, yay! And just because I haven't changed much personality-wise doesn't mean that I didn't gain anything out of my experience thus far. Anyways, the slight (minor) shift from 'E' to 'I' is probably a byproduct of having to make new friends so often over the last year, such that I yearned more for my personal time.
Lalala, I also don't know why I'm analysing all this publicly? I mean after a while they're pretty 'duh' kinda analyses right, heh. And you aren't particularly interested in this either right? I'm guessing you're just skimming skimming skimming text by now. HA, caught you! Or if you weren't, then I'm terribly sorry for wrongly accusing you ): and good to know that you've been reading to earnestly (:
P.S. My inner grammar senses kept screaming when sentences looked frightfully off with the 'I's (for Introverted) floating around. THERE! THERE IT GOES AGAIN!
P.P.S. If you read this whole post not knowing what MBTI is, go Google it. Seriously.
