Harry Potter Personality Quiz by Pirate Monkeys Inc.
Might as well face it... I yam what I yam. An Enneagram 9, INFJ. I kind of like the idea of being Dumbledoresque, though I am keenly aware of his shortcomings, particularly in holding those cards too close to the chest and not doing enough delegation. I think the grand weakness of an INFJ is perfectionism, which causes self doubt and procrastination.
Well, Of Course

You are pure belle or gentleman! You know your Jones Soda, Nehi and RC colas, your Moon Pies and sweet potato pie; you'd absolutely die without air conditioners in the summer, and you've seen Steel Magnolias and Fried Green Tomatoes (or read the book!). Your grandmother lives in an antebellum home and has a cook who makes the best fried chicken and asparagus casserole and summer squash and everything else in the world. And you know the taste of honeysuckle and the feel of grass between your toes. You are blessed. |
