This is a game where you choose your two favorite animals in order of preference.
The secret premise (to be revealed after the choices are made):
The second one is the way people see you and the first is how you see yourself.
What, am I supposed to tell you my favorite animals? And which ones? I like so many!!! The small ones? Bunnies and Dogs The riding ones? Horses and Zebra My favorite wild animals??? Tigers and Bears
I've done this before, with lots of other stuff about colors and water and whatnot...
I don't get it. Colors? Water???
Is there a punchline?
This is a fun and funny test that is supposed to help you see your own pysche in a new and enlightened way
just pick two of your favotire animals
<actually I thought there was a list to choose from...Algis..you might want to cut down the animal kingdom a bit a you know>
But now that I know one is supposed to be the way I see myself, and one is supposed to be how others see me.... well, yikes. Do I like a bear and a tiger? Or a tiger and a bear????
lol
oops!
Your not supposed to FIX the outcome
I didn't mean too, but geez!
LOL
So, now that you know how to "fix" it -- what are yours???
And what color do you like water? Blue, I'd say.
nah, not colored water! a question about water, another question about color. i went to a hippie college, though, so i don't remember how it went exactly...
I think the animals were
Tiger, Bear, Pig and a couple others
The colors..jeesh I think they're they basics
Ill be a Blue Bear thanks
Actually..since there are no boundaries set up here..
Ill be a Periwinkle Panda..and if anyone can tell me pyschologically what that means..I probably dont want to know
A hippie college? Reed??
Well, quinn, you look like a tan-colored bear, to me.
I suppose most people see me as a bear, but I think I'm a tiger!
UC Santa Cruz, the bastard love child of Berkeley, Evergreen, and Santa Barbara. Got into Reed, but they wouldn't give me any money.
Santa Cruz -- Oh my!
My sis (one of 'em) went to Reed. Hippie, but intense.
I think I'm confused. My favorite animals aren't necessarily the ones I'd like to be. Just ones I admire from afar. Which do we pick? Our favorites or what we'd like to be?
Favorite color: kelly green.
Lioness or jaguar, orange.
what comes around goes around
This is a fascinating game--and a load of us were boggled at it's accuracy several years ago--but I don't know if it can be done in a thread.
It's a psychological, personality test.
If anyone wants to take a stab at it, I'll try.
Please, no one give the rationale behind the questions for a few pages.
-----------------
1) Of all the animals, which would you like to be?
2) What characteristics of the animal you chose led you prefer that animal--at least three characteristics.
3) What body of water in the world-- or type of natural source of water--do you like most? Give three characteristics of that body of water that causes you to prefer it.
4) Imagine yourself in the most beautiful room. It was all white, peaceful, serene... But there was no door. Give one sentence describing how you would feel.
Which animal? Hmmmmmm - today - a cat. (Female)
Because they maintain the attributes of wildness within civilization.
Because they honour themselves, choose whom they love, and love without surrendering their souls.
Because they are very sensual, and their sex life looks good! And they are wonderful mothers.
Because they are beautiful, and know it.
Because they know how to relax totally and concentrate utterly and "be" fully in the present.
They play all their lives.
They are totally fierce when they need to be.
They accept suffering and death with grace.
(I could think of other reasons, but that is enough!)
Water.
The sea - because it is beautiful; because it has unknown depths and mysteries; because it is full of, and gives life; because it is always changing and yet has rhythms and patterns.
The room.
I think I would be fascinated and enjoy the purity and beauty of the room, at first - I love pure white, and its subtle radiance and changeableness, but, when I discovered there was no door, I would feel anxious and disturbed, and possibly frightened, and begin hunting for ways out, through windows or access hatches, or thin walls! Or yelling!
