Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it is because I want to know more about you.

1. When choosing between two evils, I choose the one I haven’t tried before 😉

2. One of my travel goals is to visit at least one new city every year.

3. One of these days I’m just gonna quit my job and bum around for a year and travel.

4. I’m spur of the moment, I don’t like planning, it’s easier to invite me for something tonight than to invite me for something next month.

5. When I’m disappointed, I go outside and walk until the world feels better again.

6. Sometimes I’m a walking contradiction, I probably have multiple personalities :).

7. I hate routine, I get antsy or go crazy when I’m doing the same thing over and over or when I’m always with the same people.

8. I’ve always wanted to be a writer and publish my work.

9. I cook when I’m sad, I like cooking better than eating.

10. When I like a song, I listen to it on repeat for at least a month until I start hating it and then I don’t listen to it anymore, I’m the same with gadgets.

11. I’m good at beginnings, I like starting things, then I usually abandon them in the middle.

12. I like winter and snow storms.

13. I don’t value things as much as I used to, I used to be more careful with stuff, I don’t like scratches or dents and dings, now I don’t really care anymore, imperfection just adds character.

14. I like the feeling of missing people, I would rather miss people than get tired of them and start taking them for granted.

15. My favorite colors are black and white and grey and blue and lilac.

16. I want to have a siberian husky.

17. It’s hard for me to sit still and grow roots, sometimes I just want to run away to a new place where noone knows my name, and start from scratch.

18. Three things I like in this world: travel, writing and mathematics, not in that order.

19. I like flying, and falling, I want to fly an airplane, or try skydiving one of these days.

20. I miss university. I like being in school, it’s so easy being a student, you just study and you get allowance, now you have to work for everything.

21. I have the classic peter pan syndrome, I don’t wanna grow up and be responsible.

22. When I go home to an empty house at night, I miss my family, I miss speaking in Tagalog, I miss my people, I miss my country.

23. There is no object that I value that much in this life that I’m gonna be really sad when I lose it.

24. I’m not afraid of death or dying, it’s the painful suffering before the end that sucks

25. I unintentionally drive people crazy just by being me.

Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test… Fairly Normal
48 % Nerd, 30% Geek, 17% Dork

For The Record:

A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.

You scored less than half in all three, earning you the title of: Fairly Normal.

This is not to say that you don’t have some Nerd, Geek or Dork inside of you–we all do, and you can see the percentages you have right above. This is just to say that none of those qualities stand out so much as to define you. Sure, you enjoy an episode of Star Trek now and again, and yeah, you kinda enjoyed a few classes back in the day. And, once in a while, you stumble while walking down the street even though there was nothing there to cause you to trip. But, for the most part, you look and act fairly typically, and aren’t much of an outcast.

I’d say there’s a fair chance someone asked you to take this test. In any event, fairly normal.

Congratulations!

If you enjoyed this test, I would love the feedback!
