gold and blue... the colors of schizophrenia

i've probably taken every personality test known to mankind. i suppose that in itself is indicative of my personality.

so several months ago when my small group decided it would be fun to take a color personality test, i didn't hesitate. basically, the test categorizes personalities into color: orange, gold, blue and green. now part of my obsession with these type of tests comes from the fact that at some point in college, while reviewing my results from taking the myers briggs test, i discovered that i suffer from schizophrenia. the color test proved nothing less. i scored almost identically in two color categories.

judge for yourself:

gold personality:

things that frustrate golds: irresponsibility, lack of planning, lack of discipline, laziness, high risk taking, illegal behavior

things golds do to frustrate others: control freak, being bossy and controlling, being obsessive, being judgmental, planning for everything

blue personality:

things that frustrate blues: tying, violence, personal rejection, lack of communication, lack of close friends, sarcasm

things blues do to frustrate others: lack of planning, being passive, avoiding conflict, suppressing problems, being too generous, being overly sentimental

i should state that these weren't my strongest characteristics. drum roll, please... i am predominantly a...

green personality:

things that frustrate greens: routine, small-talk, plagiarism, illogical arguments, social functions, incompetence

things greens do to frustrate others: not being sociable, living in the future, being wordy, blowing up when criticized, not going with the flow, being too independent

wordy? really? hmmm. BLOWING UP WHEN CRITICIZED???????
