you chose BY - your Enneagram type is FOUR. "I am unique" Romantics have sensitive feelings and are warm and perceptive. How to Get Along with Me Give me plenty of compliments. They mean a lot to me. Be a supportive friend or partner. Help me to learn to love and value myself. Respect me for my special gifts of intuition and vision. Though I don't always want to be cheered up when I'm feeling melancholy, I sometimes like to have someone lighten me up a little. Don't tell me I'm too sensitive or that I'm overreacting! What I Like About Being a Four my ability to find meaning in life and to experience feeling at a deep level my ability to establish warm connections with people admiring what is noble, truthful, and beautiful in life my creativity, intuition, and sense of humor being unique and being seen as unique by others having aesthetic sensibilities being able to easily pick up the feelings of people around me What's Hard About Being a Four experiencing dark moods of emptiness and despair feelings of self-hatred and shame; believing I don't deserve to be loved feeling guilty when I disappoint people feeling hurt or attacked when someone misundertands me expecting too much from myself and life fearing being abandoned obsessing over resentments longing for what I don't have Fours as Children Often have active imaginations: play creatively alone or organize playmates in original game s are very sensitive feel that they don't fit in believe they are missing something that other people have attach themselves to idealized teachers, heroes, artists, etc. become antiauthoritarian or rebellious when criticized or not understood feel lonely or abandoned (perhaps as a result of a death or their parents' divorce) Fours as Parents help their children become who they really are support their children's creativity and originality are good at helping their children get in touch with their feelings are sometimes overly critical or overly protective are usually very good with children if not too self-absorbed Renee Baron & Elizabeth Wagele The Enneagram Made Easy Discover the 9 Types of People HarperSanFrancisco, 1994, 161 pages You are not completely happy with the result?!

In other news, I had a job interview on Thursday, which supposedly went well (though I am not so sure of that myself; I think I might have said too much, admitting to some of my highly unmarketable qualities...:/). Anyway... I should hear back from them (or rather from the agency) tomorrow. It's a temp-to-hire position, meaning I would have to be on my best behaviour for at least three months...;) And that includes ARRIVING TO WORK ON TIME. Which, in this case, is 8 a.m. How the hell am I gonna accomplish that, I seriously don't know - 9 a.m. was hard enough... *sigh* (not to mention the fact that I generally have a problem with arriving ANYWHERE on time, regardless of the hour - but that's a whole another, and maybe we shouldn't etc.etc.etc.)

Also, I went to see my parents yesterday, determined to finally tell them about the whole situation... and guess what? I didn't. The atmosphere simply wasn't right for that. My sister made this lovely Chinese dinner, and we all sat there drinking wine, laughing and telling jokes, my parents both so cheerful and happy to see us, and just... no. I did tell my sister earlier on the phone, and she agreed with me that it wasn't the time. And my clever brother-in-law suggested that I should tell them only AFTER I have found a new job. You know, just shrug and say: Mom, Dad, I switched jobs. And maybe that is the truly sensible solution...
