    I was doing some research on Rorschach inblots and came across this neat personality test, it's a total of 56 pages long, it didn't take me long to do it, and it's fun too! The only down side, is you need to register at the end, takes 5 seconds, I think you can just put in a dummy email, and skip all the adds, I still thinkit's worth it, here's the link, and below is what it said about me:

    Christina, your subconscious mind is driven most by Peace

    You are driven by a higher purpose than most people. You have a deeply-rooted desire to facilitate peacefulness in the world. Whether through subtle interactions with love ones, or through getting involved in social causes, it is important to you to influence the world.

    You are driven by a desire to encourage others to think about the positive side of things instead of focusing on the negative. The reason your unconscious is consumed by this might stem from an innate fear of war and turmoil. Thus, to avoid that uncomfortable place for you, your unconscious seeks out the peace in your environment.

    Usually, the thing that underlies this unconscious drive is a deep respect for humankind. You care about the future of the world, even beyond your own involvement in it. As a result, your personal integrity acts as a surrogate for your deeper drive toward peace and guides you in daily life towards decisions that are respectful toward yourself and others.
    Though your unconscious mind is driven most strongly by Peace, there is much more to who you are at your core.

    My Test came out to:

    Joesph, your subconscious mind is driven most by Imagination

    This means you have a deep desire to use innovative ideas to enhance your life and influence the world around you. This drive influences you far more than you may realize on a conscious level.

    Your need to be innovative drives how you look at new opportunities and the kinds of experiences in life you choose to have. On an unconscious level, the reason you may be so driven by imagination is your fear of destruction, the opposite of creation. When you are unable to create due to restrictions imposed by your environment or even ones you unwittingly impose on yourself, do you feel trapped or confined? You may find these feelings of unease only get better when you find another outlet for your imagination.

    With such a strong creative orientation, you are willing to entertain a broad spectrum of ideas at any given time. The world is a fuller, richer place because you can contribute new ideas to any experience. Your natural curiosity inspires those around you and encourages them to come up with ideas they wouldn't have thought of without your help.

    Though your unconscious mind is driven most strongly by Imagination, there is much more to who you are at your core.

    Jack, your subconscious mind is driven most by Love

    Your instinct to love and be loved is rooted very deeply in your subconscious and affects most of the decisions you make in life — whether you are aware of it or not.

    You inspire people to experience their true feelings of love and act kindly towards others. You also value your personal relationships more than most people.

    Your unique capacity to love may be greater than those around you, which means you may have more to give in relationships than your friends or romantic partners do.

    Your psyche is very rich; the more you learn about it, the more you will understand who you really are.

    I decided to try this test again while i was in a certain mood..the first was when i was thinking about someone close to me and now this new one is well got me on a stump.

    Jack, your subconscious mind is driven most by Kindness

    This means you have a deep desire to be kind and fair to others. You may even be preoccupied with finding kindness in the world around you, far more than you realize on a conscious level.

    It is possible that the underlying reason you seek kindness in the world around you, is that you fear cruelty, the opposite of kindness. That could drive you to unconsciously project kindness wherever possible into your world. Regardless of its origin, your steadfast adherence to being kind to others is felt by people you are close to.

    You are probably more susceptible than others to being overwhelmed by emotions — both yours and others'. It is possible that your unusually empathic nature is a result of your natural sensitivity to others' pain, and your desire to help them avoid it. For this reason, things might affect you more than they affect your friends and family. To protect yourself from too much emotional intensity, you might want to keep an eye out so you can recognize it when it starts. That will allow you to slow things down until you feel grounded again.

    Overall, your strong orientation towards kindness gives you an optimistic nature, which translates into you seeing the best in the people around you. Because you're not one to be overly judgmental, others may seek out your company when they need a friend to talk to. People close to you likely know that you care deeply about the inner lives of others and can listen to what they have to say without imposing your views on them.

    Though your unconscious mind is driven most strongly by Kindness, there is much more to who you are at your core.

    Alberto, your subconscious mind is driven most by Curiosity

    You are full of questions about life, people, and your own potential. You spend more time than others imagining the possibilities for your life — and you're open to things others are too afraid to consider.

    You have an almost physical need to know and do more. It's only through new experiences that you feel a greater understanding of yourself and the world. You also have a rebellious streak that shows up when you feel unable to truly influence the world or circumstances around you. Your appetite for novel experiences also shows an openness others don't have, but wish they did.

    Your psyche is very rich; the more you learn about it, the more you will understand who you really are.

    lol people, you should only do the test once, they tell you too to look at the image for a while then answer the questions. Thinking about it for hours then doing it again, knowing what the images already look like I think defeats the purpose of a Rorschach test, even though one only made by PhDs.

    Atleast it isn't driven by lust I guess.

    heres what i got

    Vanessa, your subconscious mind is driven most by Reserve

    You approach the world with your guard intact because unconsciously, and perhaps consciously, you want to maintain an element of control in your relationships with people. You tend to hold your private experiences just out of reach of others. You're not one to immediately show all your cards, to let people into who you really are until you're ready.

    Unfortunately, that sometimes means you also hide things from yourself. You may find that your desire to remain guarded backfires, affecting your self-awareness. Why are you like this? It's possible that you act in this manner because of a deeply-rooted fear of being exposed, or of truly expressing yourself. To protect yourself from this fear, you act in the opposite manner — you are guarded.

    There is a certain respect that comes with resistance, an unconscious understanding that the human psyche is very vulnerable. We all feel we have a lot to hide, and you are not one to be intrusive or thoughtless about how you approach sensitive topics with others. Therefore you inspire a sense of safety in others when they are around you. Your psyche is very deep, very rich, and the more you can let yourself know (both the good and the bad), the more you will be able to appreciate who you really are.

    Though your unconscious mind is driven most strongly by Reserve, there is much more to who you are at your core.

    Gensai, your subconcious mind is driven by Love

    By having your unconscious mind driven most by Love, it appears that you're one who values your relationships. It's also likely that you expend more energy than most people do in seeking out and maintaining meaningful ties with others. Your ability to connect emotionally with other people is a gift you shouldn't take lightly as not everyone possesses it. Your heightened drive for love can make you a giving and caring individual, whether you're staying in close contact with your network of friends or taking time out for that special someone.

    People who have love as their unconscious drive tend to be nurturing types who are good at taking care of those around them. If this is true for you, then you probably find that you enjoy feeling needed and are happy when you can do things for the people you care about. Just remember that among all of your efforts, it's important to take time for yourself as well.

    As one with love as your unconscious drive, you may feel like a bit of a dreamer. If your head is sometimes filled with fantasies about great dates or even living happily ever after, it's not so surprising. And whether or not you're willing to admit it, you might also have a soft spot for the kind of romantic movies, books, and music that others find sappy. Remember that this softer side of your personality is an asset that can help you fully enjoy your life, even though during tough times it may not feel like it. By keeping a positive outlook and an active social schedule, you'll have a better chance of living the kind of love you dream about.


    im a hopeless romantic sap....wow...coulda told you that without the 56 page test.

    Umm . . . no.

    Ironically enough, I'm a horrible cynic. With absolutely no respect for most of humanity. The world's going to hell in a handbasket.

    That test kinda disturbed me. Did anyone else see really freaky crap in EVERY SINGLE BLOODY BLOT?! Argh, I'm going to be repressing images for years . . . Cool test in theory though, I suppose.
