I'm an INGRID


Take this fun quiz and find out if your a
Jackie or a Marilyn? Or Someone else (click here)?

I'm an Ingrid.  Here is the description:

Ingrids have sensitive feelings and are warm and perceptive.  (That's Me)

How to get along with me:
  • Give me plenty of compliments.  
  • Be supportive and help me to learn to love and value myself.
  • Respect me for my special gifts of intuition and vision.
  • Don't tell me I'm too sensitive or that I'm overreacting! (though I probably am!)
What I like about being an Ingrid:
  • my ability to find meaning in life and to experience feeling at a deep level.
  • my ability to establish warm connectins with people
  • admiring what is noble, truthful and beautiful in life
  • my creativity, intuition, and sense of humor
  • being unique and being seen as unique by others
  • having aesthetic sensibilities
  • being able to easily pick up the feelings of people around me (thought this was always true until recently)
What's hard about being an Ingrid:
  • experiencing dark moods of emptiness and despair
  • feelings of self-hatred and shame; believing I don't deserve to be loved
  • feeling guilty when I disappoint people
  • feeling hurt or attacked when someone misunderstands me
  • expecting too much from myself and life (my husband would agree)
  • fearing being abandoned
  • obsessing over resentments
  • longing for what I don't have

Ingrids as parents:

  • help their children become who they really are
  • support their childrens creativity and originality
  • are sometimes overly critical or overly protective

Well, pretty much me.  This quiz seems to hit the mark.  Try it out yourself!

Twilight


Okay, I've been sucked in.  After reading all four books in seven days (did not feed or talk to family during that time) I couldn't wait to see the movie.  I must say I enjoyed reading the books more.  I don't think my husband minded too much... Because I didn't bug him for seven whole days.  Such a fun obsession.

Sushi



California Rolls and Wild Salmon Sushi.  YUM.
