ISTJ

nope.. its not some typo title..

so my ex colleague decided to meet us for buffet dinner at shangri-la.. apparently she had some discount thing.. hence, today, my first visit to shangri-la.... and boy is it luxurious! haha..

anyway.. we got to the topic of personality type, and we talked about how some of the colleagues just had a mbti test. having done that long ago, i already know my type even though i didnt take the test at work.. ISTJ "introversion, sensing, thinking, judgment"

ISTJs are faithful, logical, organized, sensible, and earnest traditionalists who enjoy keeping their lives and environments well-regulated. Typically reserved and serious individuals, they earn success through their thoroughness and extraordinary dependability. They are capable of shutting out distractions in order to take a practical, logical approach to their endeavors, and are able to make the tough decisions that other types avoid. Realistic and responsible, ISTJs are often seen as worker bees striving steadily toward their goals. They take special joy in maintaining institutions and are often highly religious. Despite their dependability and good intentions, however, ISTJs can experience difficulty in understanding and responding to the emotional needs of others.
Although they often focus on their internal world, ISTJs prefer dealing with the present and the factual. They are detail-oriented and weigh various options when making decisions, although they generally stick to the conventional. ISTJs are well-prepared for eventualities and have a good understanding of most situations. They believe in practical objectives, and they value traditions and loyalty.

seriously, even though wikipedia stuff cannot be totally trusted and relied on, this totally describes me..
  • it makes sense why im the only one in my department arranging our rubbish
  • it makes sense why some people think i appear to be heartless and emotion-less
  • it makes sense why i dare to speak up if i see something that's not right, even though people might not like it
  • it makes sense why i cannot understand why there are so many emo people who feels the need to be emo and letting ppl know it
  • it makes sense why i am task and detail oriented (and not emotion oriented)
the only sad thing is i failed to fit one trait totally.. and looking at how things are.. im gonna hate myself for a long long time for that.
