insight game

My letter combination was ESFP.
When I read through the explanation of it, I really felt like it was me, pretty close. In the first sentence it says "likes to have a good time" and I feel like I'm always on the go and up for having fun and not being bored and I definitely can't stand to be around sad and mopey people. It also said I'm a people person, which is definitely me. I worked in a gas station at home for two and a half years and I created a lot of good bonds with the usual customers and I always felt like I was good about bribing people into buying little things they didn't need, but hey, a sale is a sale. It mentioned that this combination is really good at reading people and I find myself noticing things about people that other people don't notice because I feel like I am just good and pointing out odd things about people. The need to be around people is another thing they mentioned and I hate being alone, more than anything. I find it to be a scary feeling so I don't enjoy and try to not be. Overall the thing really described me well.

  1. Very insightful. I'd like to know more about that gas station experience. Maybe for your visual analysis you could look at some of the visuals in the gas station and how its design helps to entice people to come back and buy things there. In lots of hometown gas stations, the idea is to create sort of a community atmosphere that will bring people back. Just an idea.

  2. Another idea is to look at images related to your new major. How does the field of physical education try to instill the values of exercise and good health into people? For example, you could analyze the website of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education and Dance and evaluate how it uses visual elements to convey its values. The site is at http://www.aahperd.org/.
