I"ve been taking way too many quizzes!!
You are very intelligent and have high moral standards. You truly care about people and helping them. Your knack for solving problems and pleasing two warring sides makes you unique and a desirable friend to have, even if sometimes you have to tell people what they might not like hearing.
Yeah, this was Which Twilight Character are you. Carlisle, in case you were wondering. So, yeah, not that any of those characters come across as real, but when you are bored at work and have a tendency to get addicted to online quizzes . . .
I lead a sad life

I lead a sad life

What Type of Movie Would Your Life Be? | |
![]() | Your life would be an Action Flick. You live for the adventure and run on adrenaline. You are fearless and aren't one to let anything stop you from what you need to do. You most definitely are a thrill seeker, which sometimes gets you into trouble. However, you always find a way out of whatever predicament you find yourself in. |

The other choices were horror, comedy and drama. I definately prefer action
And I like . . .
What Kind of Guy Will You Fall For? | |
![]() | You would fall for the gentleman. Keep an eye out for your love at your next formal or field trip to the opera. Watch out for bad boys who walk on the inside of the curb and don't hold the door for you, and you'll end up with the guy who's suave, sophisticated, and classy through-and-through. |

![]() | You are part The Bride. When you get an idea in your head, you simply won't let it go! You constantly search for normalcy, love, and sometimes revenge--and your vicious stubbornness inspires you to fight to the death to get what you want. |

Is there a graduate level institute class?
Ok, so I have a small problem with pride, as relating to my intelligence level. I really try to learn and apply concepts I have learned. But when I go to institute, for some reason I expect to learn something I didn't know before. Is that wrong? They tell us we need to be attending some kind of institute class, but then all they offer are classes where I already know the material. Why should I go to a class when I know what the teacher is teaching. I could probably teach the class just as well.
Maybe I just feel that when the teacher writes "infinite atonement" on the board and then asks how the atonement covers people who were alive before He atoned for our sins, I feel like my intelligence has been insulted. I understand what "infinite" means. Thank you, I think I learned that fifteen years ago.
Ok, so I know that apparently I went to institute with the wrong mindset. I went expecting them to give me knowledge when I did nothing to prepare myself for the class spiritually so that I could be touched by the Spirit. But really, I learned everything we talked about in high school. This class should be building on previous knowledge, not just building the foundation still. Ok, I forget that some people joined the church late. I just wish we didn't have to always teach to the lowest common denominator!

Give me your cell phone
I subbed at a high school today. The never ending problem with high school is that everyone has a cell phone. I told the class that if I saw it, I would take it away. So of course someone has to challenge me. This one kid had his cell phone out. There were approximately two minutes left in class. I asked for it, he refused. (a reasonable request cannot be refused without repercussions on the student's part) I asked him several times and then asked for his name. He wouldn't give me that either. Sadly for him, he was in the corner computer, so he couldn't escape without getting past me. Sadly for me, he was twice my size and probably had almost a foot on me. Then he started threatening and swearing at me. I still wouldn't let him go. Then the bell rang. He left and the other students told me his name.
My question is this? What is he thinking? I guess he really does not realize that it doesn't end with me, I wrote a full report for his teacher and he will have to deal with the consequences. He really thinks it is that unfair that he cannot use his cell phone in class and of course he does not have to follow the rules because he is different. Honestly, I do not get that mentality. What happened to respect in schools? Because I'm telling you, its not there.
