16 Personalties, and I am an ENFP

Like anyone on Social Media (Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest etc.) I have seen these tests for the Briggs Myers' 16 Personalities test, it has been connected to seeing what Harry Potter character you are most like or what famous person you share qualities with and so on. I am usually skeptical of these kinds of tests on Facebook that lead you to a Buzz-feed quiz and it is not extremely scientific. BUT, I liked the idea of the test so I found this test and I took it. I followed the instructions to a 'T" and answered each question honestly even if it didn't paint me in the greatest of lights.

I got  "ENFP" with my variant being turbulent and my role as diplomat. As I read the description of this, every time I read a new line I was like "OMG THAT IS TOTALLY ME!!"
Hello Erin


  • Curious- I am curious to the point where sometimes I can come off as nosey. It has caused a degree of contempt in some of my past relationships.
  • Observant- One of my favorite things to do with my mom was to observe people on the boardwalk in Sea Isle City or Atlantic City, we of course called it people watching, but I would observe people make up stories about them in my head, and just watch every day interactions.
  • Energetic/Enthusiastic- I am totally enthusiastic especially with new ideas and new people in my life. I have the tendency to forget about older friends and or projects when new people and things come into view.
  • Excellent Communicators- Well I mean, I do write, and I communicate very well to those around me. I have a way of drawing people in with my words. I may sound conceited, but I know my strengths.
  • How To Relax/Carefree- It is a common theme in my blog and Facebook page that I truly think that life is too short to be so serious. It's not always about the money in the bank but the memories that we take from life. 
  • Friendly- I am often told that I am one of the nicest people, and how friendly and open I am. I am not one of those people with "resting bitch face". I am a genuine people person, but not a fake one, I really care about everyone I meet regardless if they are a feature player in my life story or a supporting act. I care, I love everyone.
  • Intuitive- Absolutely, a lot of times even after I have met someone once I feel like I know them on a different level.
  • Seeks Harmony With Everyone- I loathe confrontation, I want harmony in life in both my personal life and all around me. I do not do well in chaos.
  • Needs Acceptance From Everyone- I have heard over and over again in my life that not everyone is going to like me, and though I know this it still makes me sad that I can not please everyone.
  • Sometimes You NEED to Unplug- True, sometimes all the social media aspects of life can really get to me, or if I have had a long run of being with people I need some time just for me to unplug and collect my thoughts.
  • Hate Having Structure and Being Told What to Do- No truer words have ever been spoken. You tell me to do something one way, I am going to do it the complete opposite way and still have the same outcome.
  • Highly Emotional- WELL I once had the nickname Emotional Erin...so I guess it is safe to say yeah that is me.
  • Over think/Stress Easily- I don't sit up till 3am over thinking for nothing.
Famous ENFP's
  • Robin Williams
  • Sandra Bullock
  • Walt Disney
  • Mark Twain 
  • Oscar Wilde
  • Arianna Huffington
  • Ariel (yup the mermaid)
  • Ron Weasley 
  • Penelope Garcia (who I often get told I look like, from Criminal Minds)
  • Mercutio (From Romeo and Juliet A PLAGUE ON BOTH YOUR HOUSES!!)
I must say that this personality test totally opened my eyes to things I never even consciously noticed about myself. I suggest everyone to honestly take the test and see where they rank in the scheme of things. I am honored to be an "ENFP" it seems to have shown a new light to me, and I enjoy learning new things.
