Inkblot test

Today I discovered the Tickle Ink blot test. Now, most of the tests on the tickle site are your usual run of the mill test, but this ink blot test is actually very good. Here's its description...

Welcome to Tickle's Original Inkblot Test, the most thorough and scientific inkblot test available on the Web. Traditionally a closely guarded test administered only by trained psychologists and based on the original Rorschach test, this is the first and only inkblot test of its kind.Tickle's Inkblot test is free, it's private, and it's developed by PhDs.

In the course of this test, you will be asked a number of questions about 11 different inkblots. To truly capture your unconscious thoughts, it's important that you take a good look at each inkblot before reading the questions about it. There are no right or wrong answers on this test, so always give the response that most closely matches your feelings or observations about each inkblot.

It takes about 15 minutes to do the test. You need to really do it well and give it time to get the best results. You can take the test yourself by clicking here. (Don't forget to share your results if they are good ones!) Here's what mine said about me...

You have a deep desire to use ideas to change the world around you. This drive influences you far more than you may realise on a conscious level. You love to brainstorm and imagine new possibilities. The world is a fuller, richer place because you can contribute new ideas to any experience. Your natural curiosity inspires those around you and encourages them to come up with ideas they wouldn't have discovered without your help. Your psyche is very rich; the more you learn about it, the more you will understand who you really are...


I think it was pretty spot on in what it said. I do have a desire to change the world, my desires to adopt a poor child, or open an orphanage in a third world country are my own ways to change somebody's world. The same with writing to people on death row I guess. When I don't like my kids education I change their world by keeping them at home. I brainstorm and think about new possibilities a lot, which is why Im always doing some new project or other - home schooling, postcards from around the world collecting, writing prisoners, growing vegetables etc. My natural curiosity keeps me reading about new things, and I want to learn so much which I just don't have time for. I don't know if it inspires and encourages the people around me or not. People often tell me they'd like to do the same stuff that I do, but they never seem to actually do it. I guess the more Im learning about my psyche, the more I do like it and Im slowly realising I like myself.
