Just for fun: Surprisingly accurate

My sister sent me this link.

I was surprised at the accuracy. It is one of those things that tells you a little about you. Basically, you just look at the pictures and pick the one that best describes the sentance at the top. Then it gives you results related to your: mood, social, fun, and habits.

Here is the link
Http://DNA.imagini.net/friends

Hope you enjoy it.

Here's my results:

About me:
gender: Female
Location: US

Mood: dreamer
Fun: Escape artist
Habits: Junkie monkey
Social: Nostalgic

Mood:
You're an adventurous sould with a bit of a romantic outlook. You're always up for new experiences that will broaden your mind. And if there's a chance to get closer to nature, then you'll be sure to dive in. When it comes to art you appreciate precision and hard work. Nothing is more impressive than real craftsmanship. You like how music helps you unwind, and switch off. Music transports you far away from the everyday grind.

Fun:
You love physical activity -- you've got serious wanderlust. Keeping a clear head and healthy body makes you ready for whatever life throws at you. For kicks, nothing beats being out in the open. You are fascinated by the world around you and love to immerse yourself in nature. When it comes to holidays, you like to be immersed in a completely different world. It's a chance to explore activities that you don't have the time for.

Habits:
You appreciate the simplicity of nature and the beauty of the world around you. It's important to slow down and retreat from frenzy of life. Your choice of drink reflects extravagant but classic taste. You probably like to get dressed up, go out, and be seen in the glamorous haunts. (This part is not so accurate, I prefer peace and alone time but that could be related to the PTSD)

Social:
You're a bit of a nostalgic deep down. Nothing beats the good times that you and your friends have shared. You're always up for a trip down memory lane. When you think of freedom, you think of being in charge of your direction. You don't like to be tied down. It's important to be spontaneous and follow your heart.

ME:

Moods: Wild Cat

You can be both calm & peaceful, & you like to feel free to explore your environment. (One of two photos shared with husband...landscape of forest.)
You can be a little nostalgic & you love revisiting familiar places & memories.
When it comes to art, you're definitely unconventional but you appreciate precision and hard work. You are consistently impressed by the discipline and hard work of true artists whatever their field. (I chose the ballet photo)
As for music, you're a focused listener and always on the look out for something new.
You love the buzz you feel from watching a live performance there's no better escape
(I chose the big concert photo)

Fun: Thriller

Always the first to take the leap, you always look forward, & try not to have regrets.
You like to take the plunge-this positive attitude will give you a wealth of experience.
For kicks, you always opt for a chance to broaden your horizons.
You love the inspiration that exploring new cultures brings. (passport photo....if there were only one photo to pick, it would have been this one!)
When it comes to holidays, you like to be immersed in a completely different world. It's a chance to explore activities that you don't have the time for in day-to day life. (snorkeling photo...one of the only two photos hubs and I both picked!)
Exitement photo was riding on the elephant.

Habits: New Wave Puritan

You love being a little bit naughty. Nothing beats the up close and personal with the object of your affection! (making out photo)
Your choice of drink shows that you care about your health & make sure you're putting the right stuff in. (I chose water, but at first associated it with Italian Pellegrino sparkling mineral water!)
As for the home, you have an expressive personality.
You like your surroundings to be simple and comfortable-with a really romantic feel. (I chose the beige with canopy...but no ruffles or frillies for me!)

Social: Fun

You don't like to take things to seriously. For your friendship is all about sharing the latest bit of cheeky gossip-where's the harm in that? (photo..two people whispering into each other's ears...I wasn't thinking about gossip, I was thinking intimacy and sharing observations and thoughts)
When you think of freedom-you think of living for the here and now. You're open to new experiences and take any opportunity that crosses your path. (photo...going down the river and whitewater)

I think this is one of the most fun things I have seen here lately!

The open road and a full tank can take you pretty much anywhere. (open road photo)

I think anyone on bipolar town will see it here, but, if you want to, why not?

Writing all that down and copying it?
I'll give you the short version:
Moods -- sophisticat
Fun -- Thriller
Habbits -- Back to Basics
Social -- Thoughtful

Live,
What's ampersands?

Shalom!

Your wish is my command!
Quote:
Moods: Sophisticat:

You're romantic in outlook and love simplicity of nature. You can be a little nostalgic and love revisiting familiar places and memories. When it comes to art, you appreciate flair and precision, (photo, sushi). Highbrow and in the know, you've got an eye for fine detail. As for music, you're a focused listener with one ear in the past. (Photo - in the small room with guys jamming). You love the buzz you feel from watching a live performance - it's great to watch skillful muscians work their magic right up close.

Fun: Thriller:

You're insatiable. Your thirst for affection never drops. You've got a high sex drive and appitite for lurve... (HUH??? )For kicks, you'll always opt for the chance to broaden your horizens. (Photo on an elephant). You love the inspirations that exploring new cultures brings. When it comes to the holidays, you recon they should always be indulgent - a very special treat and a chance to recharge your batteries in luxorious surroundings, as well as spending quality time with family and friends. (Photo - wooden bed with sailboat photo on wall).

Habbits: Back to Basics:

You love the luxory of taking time for yourself. There's nothing quite as enjoyable as relaxing, unwinding and living a pampered life. And why not? You deserve it! (Photo, carribean waters and sand with mountains). Your choice of drink shows you care about your health and make sure you're putting the right stuff in. (Milk -- I love the stuff! ) As for the home, you like to feel cozy and comfortable. Your home is the oasis from the stresses of everyday life.


Social: Thoughtful:

For you, friendship is all about being there for one another. It's so precious to know that there are a few special people in the world that you can rely on. When you think of freedom - you think of knowledge. It's the most empowering feeling.
Well, a lot of it is on, but, some of it is so far off the block, I cannot fathom where it came from! And what the heck does "lurve" mean?
Shalom!

okay...no time to type everything so...

Mood: wild cat
Fun: thriller
habits: back to the basics
social: thoughtful

BUT -- i'm sorry to have to say that i don't think it turned out right for me. Some of it seemed like me, but most of it didn't. I tried to base my answers on the meanings of the images, but I think my being a photographer really messed up this quiz coming out right for me. darn.

I also took the "how my mind works" quiz and I was deemed "The Reformer". I feel like all the things fit me, but don't feel like listing them either. sorry.

fun quizzy thingy tho.
