It was later that I heard that a 767 had gone missing. It was from then that thing made turn toward the ominace. Current Mood: contemplative | | Sunday, August 28th, 2011 | | 11:04 pm |

Your result for The Classic Leading Man Test... Humphrey BogartYou scored 38% Tough, 10% Roguish, 33% Friendly, and 19% Charming! 
You're the original man of honor, rough and tough but willing to stick your neck out when you need to, despite what you might say to the contrary. You're a complex character full of spit and vinegar, but with a soft heart and a tender streak that you try to hide. There's usually a complicated dame in the picture, someone who sees the real you behind all the tough talk and can dish it out as well as you can. You're not easy to get next to, but when you find the right partner, you're caring and loyal to a fault. A big fault. But you take it on the chin and move on, nursing your pain inside and maintaining your armor...until the next dame walks in. Or possibly the same dame, and of all the gin joints in all the world, it had to be yours. Co-stars include Ingrid Bergman and Lauren Bacall, hot chicks with problems. Find out what kind of classic dame you'd make by taking the Classic Dames Test.

Your result for What kind of angel are you?... The ArchangelMessenger of the Divine

Take The Commonly Confused Words Test at OkCupid ======================================== ======================================== ============== Your result for The Four Elements Test... Earth PersonalityStability, Compassion, and Practicality 
With the element of Earth as your dominant nature, you belong to the most common elemental family. You are a calm and thoughtful person, characterized by your consistency, loyalty, and concern for others. You are dependable, punctual, and can remain stable even during the worst of conflicts. Throughout the day, you would rather set goals or practice routines (whether it’s your morning ritual or your consistency when dating different people). Other traits of the Earth element include practicality, objectivity, and a cool confidence. Professions such as accountants, security officers, emergency medical technicians, nurses, planners, and even homemakers exemplify what it means to have the Earth Personality, though you are not limited to these fields. You will bring order and careful consideration to whichever profession you choose. Earth Personalities are the ultimate team player, and derive pleasure from the fulfillment of their obligations or taking care of those they love. Though they enjoy group activities, they cherish their one-on-one connections. Whether they know it or not, making others feel comfortable can bring much happiness to an Earth Personality, and commitment in a relationship is ideal. Being a logical element, they tend towards tradition and convention because these provide security for themselves and loved ones. Earth elements should be careful, however, not to become too consumed in their concern for others, as they may find themselves giving too much without caring for themselves. Also, they might miss out on wonderful, new opportunities due to the fact that an extreme commitment to tradition can lead to close-mindedness. Consider doing something solely for your immediate enjoyment once in a while. Be spontaneous! Do something that might make you look like a fool and then shrug it off as a thing of the past. Also, try thinking of a hobby you used to enjoy just for the pleasure of it. Remember: not everything has to be a means to an end. Explore a little. Most importantly, be good to yourself, Earth Personality. After all, you’ll be better at taking care of others, if you can care for yourself. All in all, you are an asset to the planet as the Earth Personality. Continue to be the friendly, faithful, and strong person that you are. The planet needs your stability to keep the other wild elements in balance. What similarities do the other elements share with the Earth Personality? Based on the ranking of the other three elements, the following information might give you a clearer idea of which areas of the Earth Personality are more prominent (for example: if Wind was your second-highest element, then the qualities that Earth and Wind share might be more prominent in your personality). Wind's Relation to Earth ~ you are 32% Wind - low emotional energy level - calm and easy-going - learns well from experience Fire's Relation to Earth ~ you are 43% Fire - practical / logical - organized - prefers facts and evidence Water's Relation to Earth ~ you are 47% Water - people-oriented and intuitive - enjoys one-on-one company and listens well - considerate / sensitive towards others' feelings What are some of the differences between the Earth Personality and the other elements? If you felt as though some of the information about the Earth Personality wasn't exactly like yourself, then here is some information about the other elements' energy levels, thinking patterns, and relationship styles that might appear in your personality. Wind's Differences from Earth ~ you are 32% Wind - Wind enjoys casual or open relationships - Wind is unconventional and experimental - Wind enjoys spontaneity, drama, and breaking the rules Water's Differences from Earth ~ you are 47% Water - Water is excitable, emotional, and loves fantasy or romance - Water will make decisions based on intuition - Water is abstract and prefers theories and ideas over facts and figures Fire's Differences from Earth ~ you are 43% Fire - Fire is energetic and excitable - Fire is more dominant / aggressive in relationships - Fire prefers to talk than to listen, and is less in-tune with others' feelings And just if you're curious about the other elements, here are brief summaries: Wind Personality - Playfulness, Spontaneity, and Excitement Wind is an easy-going, low-emotional energy element with an openness to new ideas and abstract manner when solving problems. They enjoy free and casual relationships, and appreciate spontaneity, excitement, and variety. Fire Personality - Energy, Strength, and Success Fire is an excitable, high-energy element with an appreciation for concrete facts and logic when solving problems. They strive for success and to gain respect, and connect well with others on a level of thought.
