I took a 'Global Personality Test,' as it's called, which I discovered via StumbleUpon, and I'd like to share my personal analysis of my results:
"Stability results were medium which suggests you are moderately relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic." I'd have to say that's ultimately true; I don't really have any objection to this part of the results, or reinterpretations. This is pretty true to life.
"Orderliness results were low which suggests you are overly flexible, improvised, and fun seeking at the expense too often of reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment."
Whether most or all of those are pros or cons, I'll let you decide; but I'd also have to agree with this. I'd like to start working on my work ethic, but as this test has proven, I need more work ethic if I'm to do so.
"Extraversion results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity." Once again, yet another ultimately true-to-life interpretation. I have noticed, usually after the fact, that I may have scared off potential friends by being just a tad over-talkative with them; but how can I help it? I've got so much to say, and only so many people to say it too. And yes, I can be quite outgoing, usually providing it's something that really interests me such as history or political science.
As for my internally based identity? Yea, that's definitely vulnerable to major upheaval providing the right social conditions are presented.
My trait snapshots are: "messy, disorganized, not rule conscious, rebellious, rash, weird, ambivalent about chaos, likes bizarre things, anti-authority, not good at saving money, not a perfectionist, leaves many things unfinished, low self control, strange, desires more attention, romantic daydreamer, abstract, impractical, unproductive, leisurely, likes the unknown."
Once again, quite true to life; and once again, maybe I should start abit of an internal revolution.

The world is meaningless,
there is no God or gods, there are no morals, the universe is not moving inexorably towards any higher purpose.
All meaning is man-made, so make your own, and make it well.
Do not treat life as a way to pass the time until you die.
Do not try to "find yourself", you must make yourself.
Choose what you want to find meaningful and live, create, love, hate, cry, destroy, fight and die for it.
Do not let your life and your values and your actions slip easily into any mold, other that that which you create for yourself, and say with conviction, "This is who I make myself".
Do not give in to hope.
Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which you imbue it.
Whatever you do, do it for its own sake.
When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!".
Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.
The world may be empty of meaning, but it is a blank canvas on which to paint meanings of your own.
Live deliberately. You are free.
