What's Your Bloginality

A little bit of fluff for the day.....

I borrowed this from Bits And Pieces
My Bloginality is ISTJ!!!

As an ISTJ, you are Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, and Judging.
This makes your primary focus on Introverted Sensing with Extroverted Thinking.
This is defined as a SJ personality, which is part of Carl Jung's Guardian (Security Seeking) type, and more specifically the Inspectors or Duty Fulfiller.
As a weblogger, you may well have a dependable form of posting. You may be more likely to be judgemental toward others who aren't as dependable. You may get taken advantage of in group situations because you are known as not being able to say no. Because of your respect for facts and information, you may need multiple blogs to keep all of the information sorted in your head.


I mostly agree with my summary except the part about being taken advantage of in group situations - I for sure know how to say, "No" - although I do have a heart for the overloaded....

Go take the quiz and let me know what you come up with! Bloginality If you want to read a little bit more about ISTJ's, scroll down a bit....

ISTJs are often called inspectors. They have a keen sense of right and wrong, especially in their area of interest and/or responsibility. They are noted for devotion to duty. Punctuality is a watchword of the ISTJ. The secretary, clerk, or business(wo)man by whom others set their clocks is likely to be an ISTJ.
As do other Introverted Thinkers, ISTJs often give the initial impression of being aloof and perhaps somewhat cold. Effusive expression of emotional warmth is not something that ISTJs do without considerable energy loss.
ISTJs are most at home with "just the facts, Ma'am." They seem to perform at highest efficiency when employing a step-by-step approach. Once a new procedure has proven itself (i.e., has been shown "to work,") the ISTJ can be depended upon to carry it through, even at the expense of their own health.
ISTJs are easily frustrated by the inconsistencies of others, especially when the second parties don't keep their commitments. But they usually keep their feelings to themselves unless they are asked. And when asked, they don't mince words. Truth wins out over tact. The grim determination of the ISTJ vindicates itself in officiation of sports events, judiciary functions, or any other situation which requires making tough calls and sticking to them.
His SJ orientation draws the ISTJ into the service of established institutions. Home, social clubs, government, schools, the military, churches -- these are the bastions of the SJ. "We've always done it this way" is often reason enough for many ISTJs. Threats to time-honored traditions or established organizations (e.g., a "run" on the bank) are the undoing of SJs, and are to be fought at all costs.

haha: esfj is me, i guess... but i really wanted to answer more questions so i could be more accurate... until I got my profile. Pretty much nails me:
As a weblogger, your spirit of making others feel good will make people reciprocate and you will feel loved. Because you have a detail oriented spirit, you will be more likely to post frequently. You appreciate validation - especially when someone agrees with you on something you say. Because of your sensitivity, you must be careful not to be hurt when other webloggers are having controversies - you want everyone to be happy.

doens't sound like me at all! hahah

I'm an ISFJ. This is defined as a SJ personality, which is part of Carl Jung's Guardian (Security Seeking) type, and more specifically the Protectors or Nurturer. In blogging, your journal will always be immaculate and have a touch of style.

Do you think that is why I have my hubby proof my posts? I wish he could follow me around while I leave comments on other blogs. :o) I am such a BAD "proofer"!!

Personality results were pretty accurate. Thanks for the test!

Thank you for your sweet comment on my blog. (2 or more) scholarships is definitely the solution to the problem ;-)
