got me

I took a Personality Test and I must say this one's 98% accurate. It is surprising that it had assessed my personality pretty well before I even knew it. This is sooo me, at least a part of me is.
You don't usually get angry too easily but some things can annoy you, however you are sensitive about what others think of you. Your concern about rejection and ridicule cause you to feel shy and uncomfortable around others. You are easily embarrassed and often feel ashamed. Your fears that others will criticize or make fun of you are exaggerated and unrealistic, but your awkwardness and discomfort may make these fears a self-fulfilling prophecy. People generally perceive you as distant and reserved, and you do not usually reach out to others. You tend not to express your emotions openly and are sometimes not even aware of your own feelings. There are times when you believe that a certain amount of deception in social relationships is necessary, however you are mostly candid, frank and sincere. People find it moderately easy to relate to you, however you generally see others as selfish, devious, and sometimes potentially dangerous. You take your time when making decisions and will deliberate on all the possible consequences and alternatives.

Ace Ricafort: actually, according to psychology's Barnum effect, in every "tests" (personality, hula, etc.) that we take, we tend to connect it to ourselves thus making us believe that it is true. Sa psych class namin, binigyan kami ng individual results of personality test, isecret daw namin from each other, tapos sobrang convinced kami na exact yung description. Only to find out na magkakatulad pala yung binasa namin. :)
