Myers-Briggs Personality Type Test:

My name is Camille, and I am an INFJ:

Introvert-- 44%
Intuitive--25%
Feeling--50%
Judging--56%

Wow! What an interesting test. Never once have I felt like a personality test was so spot on. Initially, I was a bit confused by the terminology of the four catergories, but once I read up on them, I understood how my introvertedness, intuition, sense of feeling and sense of judging are all vital components of my psyche. For example, I tend to be in my element in smaller groups of people where deeper levels of conversation are reached. Also, I respond much better to situations when I have had the chance to engage my emotions and my recollection of previous experiences. All of these "Camille quirks" are accurately depicted in my test results, and, believe it or not, suggest a profession that I have already decided upon! In the past few years, I have really become excited by the field of Psychology. According to the Myers-Briggs test, Counseling (a branch of Psychological study/practice) is a match for my personality type. Yay! One quote in the description of an INFJ personality analysis that particularly sparked my interest was that INFJ's "value their integrity a great deal, but they have mysterious, intricately woven personalities which sometimes even puzzle themselves." If there is a better way to describe me, I'd sure like to see how.
