My Personality Type


I recently took the Meyrs-Briggs personality type test, from it I learned that i am an ISTJ. The I stands for introvert, introverts tend to be quiet people and like to keep to themselves. They also prefer to know just a few people very well rather than a lot of people. S stands for sensing, these people play more attention to what is currently going on more than the past or future, they also remember more detailed things, important things. T stands for thinking. When making decisions ISTJ's think and come up with the resolution rather than using how they feel to determine the outcome. Lastly is the J, it stands for judgement, people who are judgmental are people who like to schedule their decisions in order, and are driven by time frames and lists. Many people are ISTJ's such as Queen Elizabeth II and Matt Damon.

 This description describes me close to exact. I am a very introvert person, it takes me time to warm up to people and open up to them. It is fairly hard to meet new people because I am quiet. People who don't know me that well always say that I am quiet and awkward while the people who know me well say I'm funny, dorky, and blonde. The part that doesn't so describe me is the part where I like to be alone. I do like to do my own thing at school but when I am home I get bored very easily when I am by myself, I like to go out and do things. This experience made me think a lot about who I am, like I never knew that I was that much of an introvert but I guess I am. 


My personality type plays more of a big part on a team/group for school projects rather than in my family. I'm not the type of person that likes to work in groups because there is always some people who don't do work while the other person does it all, I'm usually the person that does it all. My family is actually the ones who told me that I was quiet and its hard for me to open up. They accept me for who I am and help me with my first impression because they say I come off a rude sometimes. I was caught off guard by it at first then after taking it in I knew I had to fix it. When my personality type fits in with things I do I know how to do it and I get it done easily. Now when things don't fit well with who I am I get stuck a lot and I usually ask for help. Recently I meet my baby brothers baby sitter and she mentioned to my stepmom wether I liked her or not and she explained to her how I am. It made me feel awkward and rude. When people meet me at first I get Scared because I
am a shy person and not good at fitting in, it is what gets in my way a lot with making new friends and meeting new people.
