What the hell am I going to do with the rest of my life?
Hey everyone! Long time no see! Sorry I haven't had a SOLID update in awhile. It's not that I have been {that} busy, I just haven't been inspired lately. But I was sitting here bored and I opened up blogger. Then I was like...I need to update, but I didn't know what to do. Then I thought I would update you on what's going on in my life, and it spawned a few thoughts. So here goes!***So first off, Steve and I have a kick ass radio show now! Everyone listen from 10am-12noon every Sunday to the Musical Fusion Show on WQRI 88.3!!! We have a lot of fun doing it and would appreciate the support!!***
Ok so I'm officially not going to have a summer! YAY! Heh, actually I'm pretty damn excited over it, because for the first time in my life I have a REAL job! No more Walgreens bullshit for me! I can finally close that chapter of my life for good and say goodbye to everything (and everyone) Walgreens!
I don't know everything about the job yet, but a close family friend got me an intern ship with the Government! It's 40 hours a week, $11.00 an hour, and its a desk job. Yea you might think it's boring, but I can't wait. I actually love desk jobs! If I get bored, SO WHAT!? I'm getting paid to sit at a desk! Anyways, its sounds like a great job so far (from what I can know right now) it's actually one of those jobs that I can't tell people what I am doing!!! How kick ass is that!
So that's awesome and it will possible give me an idea of what I may want/not want to do with my life. Having said that, here is where my post is going now!
I also took the "Do What You Are" personality test at the RWU career center site. And here are the results:
(Please not the items in BOLD. I feel that these items are extremely important in describing me.)
Understanding you, Gregory
People like you are usually easygoing, friendly, and happy-go-lucky. You are curious and outgoing so you meet new friends wherever you go. Active, talkative, and uninhibited, you have fun at whatever you are doing and seem to bring energy and life to any situation. Naturally down-to-earth and unpretentious, people love your sincere and generous nature. You have a lot of friends, and love to laugh, and you rarely like to sit still for very long. You may also enjoy animals, being outdoors, and playing sports or other kinds of games. You are very observant and like to surround yourself with objects of beauty. And you love surprises!
You are also sensitive, affectionate, loyal, and devoted to your friends and family. Rarely do you see anything but the most positive qualities in other people, so you may be disappointed when people aren't as nice as you think they are. You have a big heart and feel things deeply, even if you don't always show it. Responsive and spontaneous, you don't like a lot of rules restricting your freedom. But you are sometimes disorganized and find yourself running behind on projects. You are easily tempted by any opportunity to do something fun so you may unintentionally let other people down, though you are quick to apologize as well as forgive. But while you are flexible and casual about many things, when it comes to your personal values, you may hold your ground with surprising strength.
Note: Based on our assessment, your personality type is "ESFP."
Your Strengths and Blindspots
Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. The key to finding the best path for all people is by using their natural strengths and becoming aware of their natural blindspots.
Your strengths may include:
* Easily establishing rapport with people and selling yourself
* Having energy and enthusiasm for things you enjoy or are interested in
* Asking good questions and getting lots of information
* Demonstrating your adaptability and ability to get along with all types of people
* Being responsive to questions by providing enough relevant details
Your blindspots may include:
* Not adequately preparing for all of your responsibilities
* Not considering new possibilities that haven't come up before
* Not following through on important details
* Not conveying a serious enough interest in what you are involved with
* Being too impulsive and not thoughtful enough when making decisions
As I was reading this I realized that they summed me up almost perfectly. I wish I had this summary awhile back when I was trying to describe to everyone who the real Greg Walsh is.
Those bold points are insane! I believe that is a fairly accurate portrayal of the person I am, or try to be. I mean come on!!??
You have a big heart and feel things deeply, even if you don't always show it.
