DISAPPOINTED.

Anyone who knows me is aware that I like eyeshadow. I particularly like MAC eyeshadow.

Anyone who knows me is aware that I like to shop on EBay.

So, finding MAC eyeshadow on EBay (selling at less than half the retail price, at that!), was really a highpoint of my money-spending life. Needless to say, I bought it.

Then I waited for it to come; it was being shipped to me all the way from Thailand. And I waited. And I waited.

Eventually the happy day arrived, as did my package.

As you may be able to guess, all was not well once I opened the box. Three of the eye shadows are completely different than what was posted on EBay, one is a mystery color, and the rest are just adequate. I am going through EBay's dispute resolution to get things fixed, but I am also going through severe disappointment. This doesn't mean, however, that I will quit shopping EBay. Sorry, honey. Now you are suffering from disappointment, too.

Then...this morning I took the personality test posted on my sister Lindsay's blog. Again, severe disappointment. I found out that I don't have a personality, or at least not the one I wanted.

The Giver

You strive to maintain harmony in relationships, and usually succeed.
Articulate and enthusiastic, you are good at making personal connections.
Sometimes you idealize relationships too much - and end up being let down.
You find the most energy and comfort in social situations ... where you shine.

In love, you are very protective and supporting.
However, you do need to "feel special" - and it's quite easy for you to get jealous.

At work, you are a natural leader. You can help people discover their greatest potential.
You would make a good writer, human resources director, or psychologist.

How you see yourself: Trusting, idealistic, and expressive

When other people don't get you, they see you as: Bossy, inappropriate, and loud.

Nope. No way. Not me.

Actually, I thought the questions the test asked were rather interesting. I had a hard time choosing how to answer some of them. Apparently I answered some of the questions WRONG, because I don't think the results are very representative of me. Either that, or I am just too complex a person for this test. Lindsay's results, however, seemed dead on (not that you're not a complex person, too, Lin). Maybe I'm just disappointed because this test proved, once again, that I'm really not like my sister in all the ways I wish I were. Or, maybe I really don't have a personality, after all?

Nah. I'm too good at wearing eyeshadow to think that's true!
