I stood up and threw my arms up into the motion of an air guitar, my wife is begging me to sit back down, and I pointed at the guy who may be Keanu Reeves, and said, “Most Excellent.”

He stood up and did it back at me. Then we both had a moment and pointed at each other. I sent him another of whatever it was he was drinking. It was a cucumber sake martini. That was the end of it.

Or so I thought.

He left before we finished our meal. By the time we were done, dessert came that we didn’t order. We thought, “oh, must be compliments of the chef.” Then the bill never came. When we asked for it, our waitress said Keanu Reeves took care of it.

IT WAS REALLY HIM. And he left a note. It said, “thanks for the refresh. Keanu.”

When I finally saw him again years later, because of work. I brought it up. Then he air guitar and said, “most excellent. I remember. At Nobu’s. Thanks for the drink.” We chatted a bit and I got an autograph for my mum because she’s a huge Keanu fan. Then that was that.

Then Keanu walks up. Calmly charms the guy. Slips the usher behind the bar cash to cover the bottle, without the guy even noticing, and walks him back in to his seat like it’s a normal thing he does every day. He didn’t know the guy, didn’t know any of us, but effortlessly deescalated the situation and quite probably saved some jobs that night. 

So good.

The world has proven too often that it has no idea how to nurture the minds of genius women . 

The wear and exhaustion of staring your deepest fears in the eyes day in day out ,wrestling with the demons inside you, are easily overlooked because strong women make it look easy.

Ti: ¿but why?

Just a collection of a few personality tests! Most of them are more psychological or geared toward assisting in self-improvement or pointing out aptitude, but I sprinkled a few fun ones at the end just for kicks.

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

Arguably the most well-known and commonly used system of typing personality, MBTI is based on the way the human mind processes and reacts to other people and the world around them. I highly recommend that you look into cognitive functions afterwards to verify your type, as online testing can often be incorrect.

Enneagram System

If you’ve ever seen those weird number combinations floating around tumblr (7w8, 6w5), you’ve encountered it before. There are nine main types, although you will end up having a “wing”, which is your second, complementary type.

Four Temperaments

This one’s probably the oldest, first coming into common use in the 5th century to type people based on–get this–people’s body fluids. Since then, we obviously know that people’s personalities are not based on biological makeup, but the typology itself still can be useful.

Big Five Project

As the one agreed upon my most of psychological academia, this test is the one you should take if you’re going for scientific accuracy. It holds that there are only five completely distinct personality traits in people, which can be mixed on different levels to make every other personality trait.

Multiple Intelligences

Mainly used for self-help or aptitude, Multiple Intelligences tests the area where you’re smart, whether it be socially, linguistically or spatially, to name a few.

Holland Codes

For all of you students wondering what to do for university, this one might be helpful for you! It tests your interests and aptitude in six different career areas and will give you a three-letter code of your top scoring areas.

Moral Alignment

Sure, it’s from Dungeons and Dragons, but it’s actually pretty interesting. There are two sets of alignments, the first being lawful, neutral, and chaotic, and the next being good, neutral, and evil. You’ll end up getting a combination of one from each set (e.g. chaotic good, neutral evil).

Love Languages

This one’s not as well-known, but worth taking nevertheless. It tests the way you show love or affection (platonic, romantic or otherwise) to people around you.

Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale

Just what it says on the tin. Basically, how self-confident are you?

Hogwarts Houses

If you’re a Harry Potter fan, chances are you’ve already taken this test: it sorts you into one of four Hogwarts houses. The most accurate test is at Pottermore, but I know some people are loathe to make an account just for a test, so the link above is satisfactory enough.
