Personality Quizzes

For the Multiple Intelligence Quiz, the three main intelligences I got were musical with a score of 4.43, spatial with a score of 3.86, and social with a score of 3.86. 

Image result for music Musical means that I like rhythm and the sound of language. I like poems, songs, and jingles. I enjoy humming or singing  along with music, and remember things well when they are associated with music or a rhythm. I feel that this is really accurate. I recently started reading poems, and I have always enjoyed listening to music. Whenever I am driving, I always listen to the radio and sing along to the songs.



Spatial means that I am a visual learner and learn things better visually. It also means that I enjoy drawing and other visual arts, and that I enhance my learning through pictures, graphs and diagrams. Again, this is very accurate because I have always enjoyed drawing. When I was younger, I would constantly be drawing my favourite characters from t.v. shows. I also agree with the part about being a visual learner. I always learn better or understand something if there is a picture to explain things. Especially when I had Biology 12, the diagrams and pictures really helped me to understand the things we were learning. Even in chemistry, whenever we did labs that involved observing chemical reactions, I connected our observations to what we were learning in class.


Social means that I like to develop ideas and learn from other people. It also means that I like to talk and have good social skills. This personality is not as accurate, unlike the other two. I do enjoy developing my ideas, and enjoy learning from others, however, I can't say that I like to talk a lot. I'd rather listen to other people talk. I do enjoy talking with my friends, and I have good social skills when I am with them or when I am with someone familiar, but when I am meeting someone for the first time, I tend to lean more towards the shy side, and become more introverted. I also don't do too well in group discussions, which gives off the impressions that I am always quiet. Despite this, Being more social is something that I am working on and hope to improve.

Who I Am

Getting To Know You


Who I Was:

It was a lot easier than I thought
Image result for don't ever doubt yourself       When my dad first mentioned to me that I should learn more about the Punjabi language, I was extremely confused. I kept thinking that if I already spoke Punjabi fluently, then what more did I need to learn? My dad then pulled out a pamphlet from his jacket, and when I looked at it my heart dropped. On the pamphlet there were pictures of kids reading books written in Punjabi, and others were writing characters that looked unfamiliar. I immediately looked at my dad and told him that I couldn't do it, that it was simply impossible for an eleven year old kid like me. My dad laughed at how dramatic I was being and told me that just because I am eleven years old, doesn't mean that I am not capable of learning how to read and write in Punjabi. He went on explaining how the Punjabi alphabet only has 35 consonants and nine vowels but I didn't want to listen to him.


















Who I Am: 
Image result for meeting someone        The person I am today is a little different from                   
 who I was when I was a little kid. I am still more on
the introverted side, and am still a bit shy around new
people, however I feel that I have improved a lot more
 in the past few years. A huge difference is that I am
more willing to initiate a conversation with someone I
have just met for the first time. I like to take it upon myself
 and say hi and ask how the person is, This way, I can present
 myself as I really am and not have to feel reserved. It also helps to boost my self-confidence.

Being attentive and reliable is how I would describe my personality. I like to pay attention to how people react to certain situations, as it gives me an idea of who they are. I feel that I am someone others can trust and go to for help if they need it. There are many things that I like to do ranging from watching sci-fi, and action movies, to going on camping trips. I love going to amusements parks because being on a 306 feet tall roller coaster, while screaming until my throat is sore, is thrilling and scary at the same time. The amount of love I have for roller coasters is the same amount of dislike I have for bugs that can fly. Whether the bug is a small mosquito or a butterfly, I will immediately be on my guard.

During my free time, I always enjoy reading. Reading is something I have always enjoyed doing because whenever I read a book I get completely sucked in and am not able to put the book down. Whenever this happens, I completely put aside everything else and just focus on the book, which leaves my homework feeling neglected. Even when I step aside and take a break, I count down the minutes to when I can curl up in bed and continue reading. With reading, I am able to expand my imagination, and always try to think of different ways a scene can be portrayed. A weird habit of mine is that whenever I am reading, I catch myself saying the same line but in different tones. For some reason this always happens during the climax of the book, and I think it is because I always wonder if a situation were to turn out differently if we were to say something in a different way then what we originally had.




Who I Will Be:
Image result for be yourself quotes       I always have a mixture of excitement and uneasiness when I think about the future. The uneasiness is from not knowing what may happen, and the excitement is from thinking about all of the things I want to achieve. I hope I don't change too much from the person I am today. Even though I don't think I am the greatest person, there are aspects of myself that I am proud of. I really want to try harder and push myself to go out of my comfort zone because I am one of those people who look for familiarity and flinch away from the unknown. I can't say exactly what kind of person I want to be, but I know that I want to bring joy to others and be someone who others can look up to.

Furthermore, I hope to have a degree in business and would like to be working as an accountant. To achieve this, I should start off by improving my way of studying. I have good studying habits, and study regularly but I tend to get distracted (blame my phone),and thus side track for a long period of time. Another thing that I feel like I should change is my tendency to give up easily. If there is something that I can't figure out, I either give up completely, or start to avoid doing that task, and put it off as much as I can.



Image result for sky divingAdditionally, I would like the chance to go skydiving. I have always dreamed about jumping off a plane and gliding through the sky with the help of a parachute  (I actually had a dream about this once, except I had no parachute...), and I've always wanted to try an activity that takes a lot of courage to do. I think the reason I want to go skydiving is because I have never been afraid of heights. I think that it would be a great experience because it is something that is completely different from my ordinary life.

chicken out the moment I'm about to jump out
