Christine, you're suited to make a time saving iconic statement! There may be more than one way to solve a problem, but we're guessing that a practical thinking person like you will be determined to do it in the most effective way possible. After all, the simplest things may often the best, but they're usually overlooked. It can take some impressive abstract thinking to see the correlation between two seemingly unrelated situations. We can also see you being happiest if your masterpiece improves people's lives as we're detecting a strong desire in you to help others. Just think how much of people's time was saved by the invention of the vacuum cleaner, but just when everyone was satisfied James Dyson took it one step further. Your masterpiece might make you rich, it might make people happy, but even if it just frees up some time for you, it will mean that you have extra opportunity to dream up your next big idea!

You should get out more Christine, you have a mediocre body image! You definitely don't view your body as a temple. It fact, it looks like you're prone to pick yourself apart. Fortunately, you don't take those "lose 10 pounds in 10 minutes" diets to heart, and you are able to keep some of the ultra-slim media hype in perspective! However, it sounds like your body confidence is suffering a little bit. It's extremely difficult to avoid the super-slim ideal and it is inevitable that some of it seeps in. You haven't, however, completely fallen victim to the body trap. Sometimes you let yourself have your cake and eat it too -- but most of the time you opt out for fear of lumps and dimples. You might be a little too hard on yourself. Do you sometimes feel as if you're looking in a fairground mirror? Do you absolutely dread bikini season? If so, you might have a bit of a warped body image. It's natural for a woman to be self-critical sometimes, and it's not vain to want to look your best. As long as you keep the criticisms in perspective. So, what's the lesson here? Go easy on yourself. View your body as a work of art -- put it on a pedestal and admire it!

Smile please Christine, you're a superstar babe! Born to be a star! May we have your autograph please? Charismatic, naturally talented and driven – you have all the qualities of a Super Star. These qualities include a strong work ethic and having the right support. Others are drawn to you by your charm, focus and appeal. You aim for a level of excellence in everything you do and your efforts will not go unnoticed or unrewarded. The world is your oyster. Just make sure that when you make it big, you stay true to yourself and kind to others. Don't turn into an insensitive, demanding Diva when away from the public gaze. Remember how lucky you are and how many people helped you nurture, exploit and capitalise on your natural star quality to make it to the front pages of those glossy celebrity magazines – and the day you stop enjoying it, quit while you're ahead!

Christine, you have a Fearful Avoidant relationship attachment style. You tend to have mixed feelings about relationships. A part of you may want to have a close, loving relationship, but another part of you may be somewhat uncomfortable with commitment. It's also likely that you are afraid others will let you down or abandon you. Although you tend to be open to relationships, you may not easily reveal the true you, and potential partners are likely to be intrigued about discovering the person you are deep down. Attachment style begins in infancy with the interactions we have with our parents or primary caregivers. Through these early relationships we begin to understand the dynamics and patterns of close relationships and we carry this perspective into our adult relationships. 31% of those who have taken our test share this style of attachment. When you choose a romantic partner you tend to gravitate towards those who have what psychologists call a dismissing avoidant attachment style. These are people who tend to be very independent and self-reliant. People with this attachment style can be attractive because they pose an intriguing challenge. Your answers on our test show that when it comes to relationships you have grown beyond your earliest attachment issues. While you may not have every issue resolved, you're making substantial progress at establishing healthy relationship patterns.

Christine, you find love in a Secret Crush You love the crush. It's that simple. Butterflies in the stomach, blushing when they walk in the room, coming up with plausible excuses to talk to them — it's the whole fantasy that appeals to you. Maybe you like having a secret and admiring someone from afar, or perhaps you're just shy when it comes to matters of the heart. But underneath all the cloak and dagger stuff, we wouldn't be surprised if there's a passion for all things mushy and gushy. Maybe that's part of your secret too. In or out of a relationship, you like the idea of the ideal. That's what can make it so hard to take the first step to make a crush something more — you don't want to burst that bubble. But how do you know what will happen if you don't try? Maybe some secrets aren't supposed to stay that way.

(Granted, I think this test is designed for men but hey I thought it was interesting!) Hark - the oracle speaks! A bolt of lightning falls from the sky! SHAZAAM! As the smoke clears, the hidden deity in you emerges and is revealed to be: VULCAN, God of Fire. In a world full of philanderers, you are a cherished god. Though you might not be incredibly suave, your irresistible good nature makes you every woman's sweetheart. While all the other guys are stuck in their adolescent ways, you've got a maturity that all women ultimately desire. You present the perfect package to the ladies, with your combination of ingenuity and charm. They call it "marriage material." But let's not forget your erotic side. Between the sheets, you are unmatched. Your passion is like a volcano waiting to erupt. In your hands, a woman is simply a pleasure machine and you are the mechanic. Be careful not to make her overheat when you begin to work your magic! One night with you, and they'll know why you're called a true sex god.

Looks like you don't possess-to-impress! You probably follow the trends and have nice things, but you don't abide by the "he who dies with the most toys wins" philosophy. You don't focus on living in luxury. Of course you do indulge yourself every once in a while. You probably pick and choose where you're going to spend your money and your energy. You might want the top-of-the-line sound system, or maybe you purchase all the breakthrough miracle skin-care products. There's nothing wrong with that! You've probably got your motivations in the right place. You don't buy brands just to show off the label or drive a convertible to insinuate that you're rolling in cash. It's easy to get caught up in our "check me out" society, but you've avoided that path. Whether you have extravagant tastes or not, your spending style is motivated by your values. So, pat yourself on the back. You're a rare and admirable breed!

Christine, your Intelligence makes you a real beauty There's nothing more beautiful than a good head on your shoulders. Witty and wise, you're never short on interesting conversation or an informed opinion. You like to stay on top of what's going on around you. From world events to local hot spots, you don't wanna miss a beat. But all those smarts don't mean your nose is in a book all day. You're a friendly soul who knows how to have a good time and whoop it up. From grabbing a casual dinner with friends to checking out a hip, new art exhibit, you're not afraid to have a little fun. What could be smarter than that?

Christine, your most positive energy is flowing from your Seventh Chakra This chakra is located at the crown of your head and represents the seat of the soul. The seventh chakra is associated with your connection to your spiritual self and to the divine. In your case, this chakra appears to be clear and unblocked so that positive energy can flow from it freely. Radiating positive energy from your seventh chakra indicates that you've cultivated higher wisdom concerning the important life lessons associated with this energy center. You're apt to feel a greater bond with the spiritual world. You're probably also more able to live in the moment than most other people are. The seventh chakra is the chakra of highest spiritual evolution. Whether they're allowing positive energy to flow or preventing it from doing so, all seven of your body's chakras contribute to how you are feeling on a day-to-day basis. When they're balanced, you feel energized and at the top of your game. When they're unbalanced, you may feel tired or 'off'. While we have focused on identifying the one chakra that allows your positive energy to flow most freely, we have also discovered the ways your other six chakras are handling the passage of energy.

I'm sitting here avoiding my math homework. I'll get to it eventually. I'm listening to a song that the man I admire more than anything wrote. We were sitting around talking one afternoon, about literature (what else?), and he mentioned that he writes songs and gave me the website he's on so I've been sitting here listening to his work. It's amazing. Usually I'm not a big fan of the style but this stuff is really good. Makes me wish my stinkin computer at home would cooperate. Just thought I'd get that down on paper. *Sigh*

Christine, you're a Passionate Partner Love or lust? You probably don't ask that question too much — they're both important to a passionate soul like you. This doesn't mean that you play the field. You just love getting swept up in your emotions, and you want to keep desire alive in your long-term relationships. You don't mind taking the initiative in the relationship department, and you expect the same level of enthusiasm and attentiveness from your partner. Whether you prefer amorous walks on the beach or impulsive kisses on the street, you feel energized when you're in love. Weak in the knees? You know it!

Capricorn & Pisces The profound Pisces sensitivity gravitates toward a solid Capricorn mooring, a reassuring and respectable person. But the total absence of materialism characteristic of the Pisces irritates the Capricorn, who knows what things are worth after having earned them through hard work. Discussion is difficult, due to the Capricorn's rock-hard realism. The Pisces floats in a spiritual, emotional, poetic medium. However, often the latter's pliancy makes it possible for him or her to submit to Capricorn's direction. Capricorn Practical Capricorn, the tenth sign of the zodiac, represents discipline, ambition, and rationality, making you the most determined and persistent sign of the zodiac. Since you have such an unshakable faith in your own power, you have an extreme capacity for hard work and endurance. Saturn, the planet of challenges and restrictions, is the ruler of Capricorn. Saturn is sometimes associated with bad luck; however, without the obstacles of Saturn we would never grow and evolve any further, which makes this planet the one that makes us tough, because it teaches us to develop patience and staying power. Capricorn is the third earth sign, which means you know that you can't live on inspiration alone, and therefore, you have become a down-to-earth realist, and are willing to take care of the daily chores. For that reason, stability and consistency are very important to you. You, Capricorn, rule the tenth house of the horoscope, a sector associated with career, social standing, and personal aspirations. Furthermore, this house describes your ambitions and goals in life, as well as your public image and your reputation in your social circles. Capricorn is a cardinal sign, meaning that you don't wait for others to take action - you charge right in making full use of your qualities of pragmatism, efficiency, and diligence. You have many strengths, dear Capricorn, because with diligence and patience you work to reach the high goals you have set for yourself. Your calm, diplomatic, and pragmatic approach is admirable. On top of that, once you commit to something, you feel responsible and accountable for what you do, which makes you such a trustworthy and loyal person. However, you also have weaknesses. Sometimes, you can get very pessimistic and skeptical. You don't always have the flexibility to make a quick change in plans if something doesn't work. You are also known for being calculating and despotic at times, as well as cold and indifferent.

I heard from Pat tonight. Well sorta. I got home from seeing Batman Begins with my sisters (freaking awesome movie) after having dinner at IHOP with the "family". No we didn't go to the one I work at (thank God). Anyway, I was going to check my mail and thought I'd be hopeful and look at the caller ID. Pat called around 8 so I called him back. He was just returning a call I'd made last night or so questioning something about my paycheck. It was no biggie that I didn't end up asking him but I'd left a message just so he'd know that was the reason I was calling ya know? He's tired and been busy...he had a five hour heart to heart with Catherine last night (his ex girlfriend) and my heart sank when he told me...I miss him. Alot. I actually said "can I be honest?" "Yea" "I really miss talking to you." "That's sweet." So I said call me whenever...I'm trying so hard to be brave and not call and beg. It just drives me crazy that he likes me so much and won't let himself enjoy our time together. I suppose a big part of it is because I've had so many regrets in not telling people how I feel or not enjoying the time that I have with someone. In an instant that time is gone. If you care about someone and you click and like hanging out, he'd said he liked just lying on the couch watching tv and I loved that, what's the harm in enjoying what you have?

Well, it's happened again. Yet another man thinking I'm crazy for being so passionate and falling in love so quickly. Cupid doesn't know how to tell time! What is so wrong with falling for someone quickly? When did the world stop believing in love at first sight? Pat officially called me crazy in an email today. I sent him last night's entry and he responded paragraph by paragraph. He thinks I'm crazy. When the hell am I going to meet someone who is okay with falling in love quickly? We clicked! What is the big damn deal? I'm so lost and confused. It's not fair. I've always been a passionate person and what's wrong with automatically liking someone? I know alot about him and have no problems with him...other than him freaking out. I woke up this morning thinking wow I feel like I'm over him but then I read the email and couldn't eat...I cried for a bit, black tears (no run mascara my ass) and just kinda went lethargic for the rest of the day. I'm still feeling a bit out of it but...I've had some chocolate and that's calmed me down. I have to get to bed soon because I'm working IHOP tomorrow morning. Hopefully the manager won't have a cow about it. I was originally supposed to have tomorrow off at IHOP (I'm on at Pinnacle) but I asked the manager on duty on Monday to pencil me in but our regular manager got fired and I don't know who the new manager will be so who knows what will happen tomorrow. I'm kicking myself for not taking the time off and telling Gail I could work tomorrow morning. Oy. Well we'll see what happens. I haven't talked to Pat at all today. I haven't called or anything so we'll see where that goes. He's online right now but he may not actually be around. He certainly isn't making a point to talk to me. What he said really freaking hurt. I'll post his comments here before I go off to bed. "LET THE RECORD SHOW THAT I WAS INTERESTED IN THAT SIDE OF THE BUSINESS AND YES WE DID GO OUT AND YES WE ALMOST KISSED, AND YES I PULLED AWAY BECAUSE I DID NOT THINK IT WAS A WISE PATH TO GO DOWN.." "THANK YOU FOR THE KIND WORDS, I DO HAVE MY DEGREE IN THEATRE, I AM A THEATRE GUY (AND STRAIGHT) AND YES WE DID HAVE SEX, GLAD YOU THOUGHT IT WAS AMAZING." Not sure why he decided to recap each paragraph but okay. "DUMPED IS SUCH A STRONG WORD- BUT I GUESS AS GOOD A WORD AS ANY.. I KNOW YOU DID THIS BECAUSE IT FELT RIGHT, I WILL TELL YOU IT DIDNT FEEL RIGHT TO ME, BUT I DIDNT EXACTLY KNOW HOW TO STOP IT ONCE WE HAD GOTTEN THAT FAR, I CAN NOT CONTROLL THE FACT THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE, AND FRANKLY I AM SICK AND TIRED OF BEING TOLD HOW SICK YOU ARE OF THIS HAPPENING, I CAN NOT CONTROL THAT.." At one point he told me that it felt right to him too. This was the first time I heard him tell me he didn't feel right about it. I mean there were a couple times he said he felt like he was using me but I told him he wasn't. And he wasn't. I never once felt used. And I wasn't "telling" him about it again, I was writing it in my diary. I didn't write that entry as a letter to him I wrote it for me. "YES YOU ARE CRAZY FOR FALLING SO QUICKLY, I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING ABOUT A TIME LIMIT- BUT GUESS WHAT THERE IS ONE, I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU MISS ME (OKAY MAYBE I DON'T).. YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND LOVE ME IF YOU WANT, I JUST CAN NOT GURANTEE THAT I FEEL THE SAME WAY." See what I mean? I told him I wasn't expecting him to feel the same way. I never did and haven't been. I care about him and he said he still cares about me. I'm not asking him to love me back. He asked how I was feeling and since we decided on total honesty I told him. Maybe I shouldn't have. He doesn't understand that I miss him...that freaking hurts. "LOOK I TRIED TO GET OUT OF THERE, BUT GOT PULLED INTO A MEETING.. THE REASON WHY WE CAN'T DATE IS BECAUSE I WANT TO BE FREE, I WANT TO HAVE THE OPPURTUNITY TO HANG OUT WITH OTHERS, HAVE FUN, AND MOST IMPORNTANTLY NOT FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO ANSWER TO SOMEONE. I SPENT MY ENTIRE LIFE DOING THAT, I DONT WANT TO FOR A WHILE. .CALL IT THE REVOLUTIONARY IN ME..OKAY INTERESTING HOW YOU HAVE DONE AN ANALYSIS ON ME AND I AM CLOSER TO YOU THAN I WANT TO BE, THAT VERY WELL COULD BE AND OF COURSE IT IS SCARRING ME, FOR FUCK SAKE THE LAST THING I WANT.." I didn't know he was wanting to get out of there before I got there. I'm not sure I want to know if it was because he really didn't want to see me or because it would hurt to see me. I never stopped him from hanging out with other people, or dating other people, I never wanted him to tie himself to me. He NEVER had to answer to me, I'd never ask him to EVER. I was just writing what I thought he was feeling, the vibe I was getting. If I was wrong okay I was wrong. I just really hope the "last thing" he wants is to be with someone in general and he's not saying oh God I want nothing to do with you. "GLAD YOU LIKE MAX!! I AM NOT SURE AMAZING IS A WORD I WOULD USE, CATHERINE ABSOLUTLE.. YOU SHOULD NOT BE JEALOUS- THEY GOT SHIT ON TOO." I'm not sure if that "too" was supposed to be "you" or if I'm assuming too much...or it could be they've got shit on too as in they have problems like everyone else. *shrugs* "GLAD MY WORK INTERESTS YOU, AND I GUESS YOU SENT ME THIS ENTRY- AND YES I DO FALL ASLEEP A LOT I AM A TIRED KID, I WORK HARD.. " I never had a problem with that. "I ADMIT YOU ARE A GOOD MATCH FOR ME, EXCEPT THE RELATIONSHIP, WANTING TO SPEND ALL THIS TIME TOGETHER, AND NOT RESPECTING THE FACT THAT I NEED ROOM.. AND THE GUILT TRIPS- ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE NOT CATHOLIC, OR AT LEAST JEWISH?" He never told me. If he had told me he needed space I would've respected that. I asked him numerous times if he wanted me to go away and give him room and he always said no or I don't know. And I guess the guilt trips...well they're unfortunately part of my nature, a defense mechanism not to get left alone again. "THE LITTLE SNAPS ARE MORE THAN LIKELY A RESULT OF TIREDNESS, I GET BITCHY WHEN I AM TIRED (WHICH i AM AS I WRITE THIS) GLAD YOU LOOKED AT OUR COMPATABILITY" "YEA THAT SAYS IT" (about the horoscope compatibility) "WELL YOUR ASSUMPTION OF A DIFFERENCE IS PROBABLY CORRECT, THE SLOB FACTOR COULD HAVE BEEN A DEFENSE MECHANISIM, I MEAN ME TELLING YOU I AM AN ASSHOLE DIDNT SCARE MAYBE THAT WOULD.. OR IT COULD BE THAT I AM A SLOB WHO KNOWS. . AND I AM GLAD THAT YOUR GROWING, YOU ARE A LITTLE SHORT :) OKAY YOU MEAN AS A PERSON WHICH IS A GOOD THING" Well, his defense mechanisms didn't work, mine didn't either. I think that says something but hey I could be wrong. So, I spent the afternoon in a lethargic state, crying a little every once in a while. It was weird. But yeah still haven't talked to him...and the weird part is, I'm okay with it. I suppose that I've grown through this and know that he needs his space and I'll just hope that he calls. But I'm not going to sit next to the phone until he does. @----)(------

So, I'm at my dad's house. I've been here since...a week or so after finals. I've been working as a server at IHOP and a server at the Pinnacle Dinner Theatre. I'm making pretty good money, I worked all day Monday at IHOP and walked with 94 bucks. Of course, it's all going into savings and onto my credit card for next semester. It's amazing how my sisters never seem to run out of things to fight about. Rebecca's actually started cursing and it's weirding me out because she's always been the good little church girl and hearing her lately is a real trip. Caitlyn seems to be able to hold her ground though. Makes me sick to listen to it though. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's because I'm just so freaking sick of people being mean to each other in general, I've been the victim of it for years so yeah. Getting back to the point of why I started this entry in the first place, since I haven't written in forever...I just got dumped. I've never been dumped before in my life. It's a weird feeling. Usually I either do the dumping or drive the guy to a mutual breakup. And the worst part is, he really likes me. Okay, I met this guy named Pat about...3 weeks ago and...well, he was standing to my manager, Gail, and I asked her a question and then later on that night, she told me that Pat said I was hot. Well the next afternoon, Ty, Anne, Bonnie and I all decided to go to Souper Salad for our lunch break and I asked Pat to come along since he was just standing around. That evening after my night shift (it was one of those rare days where I work a double at Pinnacle, usually I'm at IHOP in the mornings) he was telling me that his friends had changed their plans to go get food so I said that I'd probably be hungry by the time I was done doing resetting my tables and I'd love to join him. He actually helped me reset my tables and told Gail that it was because he wanted to learn that side of the business. She out and told him it was because I worked in that side of the business. (Pat is the marketing manager.) So after we finished, we sat in Denny's for two hours just talking. We talked about shows we'd done, his past girlfriends, we brushed over the fact that I'd had past relationships...then when he walked me out to my car we hugged and almost kissed but he pulled away. I was kinda bummed. (I found out later that he thought I wasn't interested!)(I had thought the same thing!) So we saw each other every day or night after that up until this last week...the night after Denny's, I went over to his apartment and we ended up having sex. It was amazing. He is so sweet and charming and caring and OMG one of those RARE guys who likes to talk about things. He's handsome and smart and a theatre guy! He's 26 and got his degree in theatre...*sigh* Well, he dumped me last night. I really thought we were clicking. I mean everything about it felt right, even the fact that we slept together after knowing each other all of like 48 hours. If it hadn't felt absolutely right I wouldn't have done it. He keeps saying it's the past hurt and work and him being busy and his not being fair to me. I'm sorry but I'm just so freaking sick of getting close to a guy and things falling apart. I'm even more sick of sleeping with them once and that being it. If being physical and intimate with a guy is going to be part of our relationship, and I have no problem with it being so, it has to be a constant thing. I mean granted we played and made out but that's different. We haven't even done that in over a week. I know I'm making it sound like we've known each other longer than that but...it feels like it. Maybe I'm crazy for falling so quickly but you know you can't control who you love, you can't choose where you will love or how fast it will happen. I hate it when people put a time limit on affections. Freaking society seems to put a time limit that standardizes when you can love someone. And I'm not even saying that I'm in love with the man but I was starting to. And now, he doesn't even want to date anymore. And he keeps giving me the "it's not you it's me" line and I believe him. Normally I don't but it's hard to explain to anyone who hasn't been around us ya know? But I believe him. I just really miss him. Seeing him at work tonight was almost unbearable. I promised him I wouldn't make work awkward. That was the whole reason we couldn't really make a big deal of us dating because we work in the same building ya know? But I saw him several times around this afternoon/evening and it just wrenched my heart everytime I saw him. He keeps saying he still cares about me and nothing will change that but I don't see why we can't just date over the summer ya know? Maybe he's gotten closer to me than he expected and just isn't as vocal about it as I am and it's just scaring him. He kept telling me how amazing he thinks I am and how incredible it is that he found me when he did. He dated Seana for nine years then didn't even have a typical breakup, it was more a cross over into Catherine. And these women must have been amazing for him to been with them for so long. I'm actually jealous of what they got to have with him. And not jealous in a stalker way, just envious of...like the line from Aida, "I shall not envy lovers but long for what they share." I really care about him and I can't seem to get through to him that I'm okay with just dating this summer. I don't need an actual relationship right now. I was happy just seeing him when he got a few minutes, just hanging out at his place watching Family Guy petting the dog. (He's got the cutest black lab/blue heeler/ Rotty mix named Max.) I was happier than I've been in a LONG time. I'm going to either send him this entry or just tell him when I actually get a chance to talk to him without him falling asleep or running to do something for work. He's such a workaholic. It's crazy that for the first time I'm feeling totally unselfish with a guy. I actually care about what he's doing with his life and his work and I love hearing about what he's doing and what he's done. Admittedly, I haven't always been that way with the guy I'm seeing. Alot of the time I just tune them out or change the subject. Course, I admit that's a bad thing. But it's different with Pat. I love hearing what he's up to and what he wants with his life. I love letting him talk about everything. I understand that his work comes first and I'd never do anything to stand in the way of that. I wish things could go back to the way they were. But I guess...he told his friends that if it weren't for the work thing and his past thing that we would be pretty much perfect for each other and that I have several of the qualities he wants in a woman. I've got this ache that's just missing him. We're both picking at each other with rude little snaps and it's driving me crazy. I know he cares about me more than he's willing to let himself admit but that's probably the Taurus in him talking. We both believe in the horoscope thing so I got bored and we decided to look up our compatibility: Taurus & Pisces They get along perfectly! The poetic, sensitive Fish seeks ways to make the Taurean happy, in exchange for the tenderness and security he needs. They enjoy going out together as well as the intimacy of their home. Their physical love is alchemical, spiritual, and intense. The Bull's practical side helps the Pisces to accomplish the projects bubbling up in his or her imagination; a quality which the stolid Taurus needs to lighten his sometimes monotonous life. The outlook for love is promising. Wild huh? We've read each other's profiles and agree with them pretty much completely. It's amazing how quickly we clicked and it just blows my mind...how happy I've been with him. He can be a total slob sometimes and I love him for it. He belches and can be just a typical guy in that respect and I'm okay with it. Normally that kind of stuff sends me for the hills faster than anything but I'm okay with it. I'm realizing more about myself and just wow ya know? I feel myself growing as a person. I'm going to go try to get some sleep but I'm going to go ahead and send this. Not like it will make a whole lot of difference but I didn't write it for him, I wrote it for me. @---)(-----

What Kind of Potato Chip Are You? by Tickle.com Christine, you're a classic potato chip! You've got an elegant classic style and laidback attitude that tells the world you're not about to take yourself too seriously. Like your signature potato chip, you don't need a lot of embellishments to show off your great taste and personality. From friendship to work to play, you're a true blue who never lets people down. Your cool, confident ways make you a great source for good advice and good times. That's classic!

What's Your Romantic Pattern? from Tickle.com The Mentor and the Protégé is a romantic pattern that's about more than love for love's sake. In it, love grows out of deeper need to learn and understand other aspects of your life through the teachings of someone else. But, here's the recurring pattern you may see in your relationships: Love isn't the only thing you're after. You want power, success, attention, maybe even fame. You want to be recognized, doted on, and adored for your talents. And the object of your desire is the person best suited to provide you with these things — a boss, a mentor, a teacher, or a troubled genius. Similarly, the object of your affection can take the place of an absent parent or role model, providing security and nurturance. Whatever the reason, you're likely to feel a boost to your self-image when you're with this person. Just as this romantic pattern overpowers you, you might wish to be overpowered by someone stronger, wiser, and more accomplished than yourself. Your romantic pattern starts out innocently enough. Did you recently take a job working for an amazing boss? Has a teacher or mentor taken a special interest in your work? Maybe a long-time family friend stopped by for a visit, and revealed a fascinating side you've never seen before. The attention this person gives you is just what you're craving. From there, it's not a huge leap to falling in love. In "My Fair Lady" a bet to train a poor woman in the ways of high society blossoms into romance. An older gent tumbles head over heels for a much younger woman in "Gigi." When secretary Tess McGill (played by Melanie Griffith) finds out her boss has stolen her idea in the movie "Working Girl," she gets revenge not only by taking her boss's place but stealing her beau. Bridget Jones has an affair with her boss, and in "The Graduate" Benjamin Braddock is sleeping with the wife of his father's boss. Sometimes these affairs work out; sometimes they don't. But the familiarity of this classic pattern itself is what brings them to life. You undoubtedly have seen yourself in some of these entertainments.

How Passionate Are You? from Tickle.com FLAMING FUCHSIA Quick, turn on a fan because it's hot in here!

Chances are, you're the person people come to when they want to make things happen or when they need advice. And who can blame them? We'd guess you're known for your uncanny ability to pave the way for change and influence others to get with the program already. Your flaming passion probably stems from a drive to be the best — friend, girlfriend, daughter, whatever. So keep reaching! With your passionate ambition, you're destined to burn a path toward success. After all, what could possibly stand in your way?

Well it's been an interesting few days. I got to Littleton on Saturday and I'm stuck between really wanting to go home and being excited about my jobs. I'm living with my dad and his family for the summer and I've had interviews the past two days and I'm still not done lol. Monday I had an interview at Village Inn (little place like IHOP) and he wanted me to start training today but I had an interview at IHOP this morning that totally won me over. I start there on Saturday morning. So tomorrow I have interviews at the local dinner theatre and Forever 21. Let's see what else is going on? Oh I talked to Kris last night and I apologized to him for everything. Lindsey, my best friend, and I had a long talk yesterday afternoon about my "behavior" towards Kris and I realized why Kris had been so uncomfortable. I hadn't even realized most of it.
