Take My Office Space Movie Test

I just realized this makes me feel like I am filling out one of those All About Me books that was required from my undergrad communication class.

SparkNotes Version:

I'm honest to a fault, I like to play devils advocate, I crave change and adventure, I like to be challenged, I like helping others, I wear my mind on my sleeve and occasionally my heart in the right situation, I'm well educated and I'm accustomed to doing things on my own. I'm always willing to take a chance on soemthing I beleive in, as I think it is better to try and fall flat on my face, than to wonder what if?

Getting my profile to 100% version (how do they decide XXX required characters anyway?):

I can be called a random traveller. I'm one of those people that can talk to anyone and often do. I can be a fierce friend and I don't mind defending my point of view. I love travelling because it always leads to some type of adventure. There is just something about staying at a hostel and meeting new people. I frequently travel alone, which provides a different perspective. I enjoy meeting new people but I am also equally happy staying in for the evening or going out to a basketball game and dinner alone.

I always try to rise to the occasion and love being challenged in life, making me a pretty competitive person. I don't have to be the best, but I at least have to try. I can be described someone who is spontaneous, outgoing yet not high strung. I know, weird but that’s me, a walking conundrum.

To make a living I'm concert photographer, HR manager and run a music zine, called From The Crowd.

I am not a big planner, although it seem like it to the outside world, until you really know me. If you're into personality tests I am an EnTP, DiSC says I am a Conductor (11). What does this mean? Well, that I love to play devils advocate, am quick on my feet, and think way outside the box among other things.

Don't ask me for the truth, if you don't want to hear it.

Life should be fun and full of surprises... I think we forget that too often.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

I enjoy what I do at my daily job, plus its great to be involved with music and photography. I'm also taking time to get into better shape and travel more. I suffered a really bad knee injury running a little over a year ago, so I am taking it slow.

I started a zine focusing on music, which has actually taken up a ton of my time, but has opened many opportunities for me. If you're a music writer, I might have opportunities for you!

I'm working on getting into better shape from an injury, so that is exciting. I've started walking, a lot, I'm a little too nervous to start running yet, but I am sure I will get there. I'm getting much faster on my Tempe Town Lake walks, and am up to 18 miles a week. I decided about a week ago, I was going to do the P.F. Chang Rock n Roll Half Marathon in January. I have time to train for the Marathon, but I'm really nervous about hurting my knee again, so maybe next year.

I'm really good at Propose an edit

Thinking outside the box... if you have a problem, I'll come up with a solution, it might not be the best one, but it will work.. just trust me.

Once upon a time I was a golfer and almost played in college until I decided I didn't wnat to do it for the next 4 years, although I still have a "textbook swing".

I'm also good at being a "Jill" of many things. I learn this very quickly, so I can learn most things I have interest in. Telling jokes badly.... and tpying to fsat and having lots of typos.

I've also recently become addicted to Rock Band and Guitar Hero for Wii, although I'm not really that good at it.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit

I guess I would say a backpack, a journal, a camera, a pen, ideas and a full mp3 player.

There is just something about looking back at pictures and old journals that can really show how you have changed as a person. I also believe it is possible to connect with a song, in such a strong way, that hearing it can completely transport you to an important time or connect you to a feeling.

It amazes me to look back two or four years ago and see where my thoughts were. Often, they seem to be in the same place as they are now, but other times, its just funny to see how you felt in a moment.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

I guess everything... My mind is always going.. and if you let me I will go off on a tangent all the time, but I understand it is an entertaining experience.

Lately, I've been spending a lot of time thinking about not letting opportunities pass me by, or doing the things I've always wanted to. I just can't see myself sitting behind a desk for the rest of my life. I want to experience life and have everyday have an element of surprise or discovery. I'm not saying I want to climb K2 one day and then go shark diving the next, its just I want to appreciate the small things, while not being afriad to take the next big step.

So, to help this part of my life along, I set a goal to start checking things off the "list", you know the "I'd love to do this... if only". A few things I've taken off my list this year include:

Showing a portfolio to Rolling Stone, Spending the 4th of July in Washington DC, Working my first paid photography gig, and keeping in better contact with my family.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Out and about... I can be found either at: Walking with Friends at Tempe Town Lake, at The Marquee Theatre or The Clubhouse catching or taking photos at a show, a Suns Game, the movies, First Friday or at home working on my website/zine or watching a movie at home.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

Test Question:

Be honest. Have you ever been chased by the police?

Answer: Yes and its a really good story!

I really likes this test result, and yes, this is an evil ploy to make my profile more complete:

The Modernist
You scored 100Artist, 75 Philosopher, 68 Scientist!

You represent all that is hypermodern in thinking and existing in today's society. You live a very active and agile mental life, combining it with sporadic activities that involve intense personal expression (art, blogging, etc.) As opposed to the other types, your thinking style is a combination of: methodical, artistic and introspective. This means you are at different points in time capable of: valuing something, imagining it spatially, and enjoying its value exponentially. You are likely highly literate, but you are a jack of all trades in that no particular field captures your fancy entirely. You may find yourself involved in a range of activities; make sure you are comfortable with your own identity and that you do not neglect any of the major aspects of thought. There could potentially be a propensity for skiddishness or flightiness. Furthermore, you are very easy going as a friend and partner ... easily absorbing the personalities around you, but not committing to any side in particular. Quote from a Modernist: "People often think I'm flip flopping on my opinions, when in reality, I'm just seeing many sides to something." Examples of Modernists: Tony Blair, Leonardo Da Vinci, Aristotle
