Solitary

  • You are a private person, not very comfortable in a big group, and view excessive socializing as a waste of time.
  • You not prefer hanging out with others to spending time alone; you do not tend to feel at home in a crowded room, club, stadium, or auditorium.

Passionate

  • You are in touch with your emotions, and sometimes you react before you think. The good news: you don't tamp down your feelings. The bad news: you sometimes say or do things that you later wish you could take back.
  • You do not live your life on an even keel; you do not go for long periods without experiencing some mood swings.

Introspective

  • You like your own company; you're a very interesting person. Tracking your own mental processes, knowing what you're thinking and why you do what you do, is important to you. Often, what's going on in your mind is more compelling than what's going on outside. For the most part, those with a high score on the "introspective" trait enjoy reading, taking long walks, learning new things, and other solitary activities.
  • You are not someone who is constantly looking to be among a group of friends; you never feel bored when you are by yourself.

Aesthetic

  • You appreciate art, beauty, and design; you know that they are not superficial but absolutely crucial to living the good life. You have good taste, and you're proud of it. Those with a high score on the "aesthetic" trait are often employed in literary or artistic professions, enjoy domestic activities — doing things around the house — and are enthusiastic about the arts, reading, and travel.
  • You don't think it's pretentious to be moved by art and beauty. You're not one of those who believe it doesn't matter what something looks like as long as it does its job.

Original

  • You are constantly coming up with new ideas. For you, the world as it exists is just a jumping-off place; what's going on inside your mind is often more interesting than what's going on outside.
  • You don't feel that the road to success is to be a realist and stick to the program; you never stop yourself from coming up with new ideas or telling the world what you're thinking about.

Scrupulous

  • You are an honest, fair person. You don't lie or cheat to get ahead. You treat others with respect and hope for the same in return.
  • You do not feel that you are above the rules that everyone else follows; you are definitely not willing to do whatever it takes to get ahead.

Stressed Out

  • You often feel that there's too much on your plate, that you don't have the strength to deal with the bad hand you've been dealt, or that you're going to lose it if you have to deal with one more problem.
  • You don't always bounce back quickly from adversity; sometimes when you get bad news it can hang over you for a long time.

Unsettled

  • You may be comfortable on your home turf, but you have a tendency to be self-conscious in an unfamiliar environment. While you're usually at ease with your friends, you can be a little skittish around strangers.
  • You usually don't feel at home in unfamiliar settings or with new people. When you get rattled, you don't necessarily recover instantly.

Rash

  • You get excited easily, allow yourself to react without censoring your feelings, and sometimes blurt out the first thing that comes to mind.
  • You generally don't consider what you're about to say before you open your mouth to speak.

Emotional

  • You let it all hang out, and those around you always know what you're going through.
  • You are not isolated from your emotions; no one would call you "cold-blooded," or even "cool as a cucumber."
