Mr. Picassohead Self Portait

Ok guys, I did ,my self portrait...I sent the link to my own email, in hopes that I would be able to post the link on here. However, I have not received the link in my email yet. So, I am going to wait and see if I get it.
What an interesting project...there definitely were not enough options! But, all in all, I enjoyed the assignment, and I would share this with others.

Temperament: The Idealist

I found myself debating back and forth between 2 different temperaments that I really felt I belonged in. Ultimately, I decided that I am more of an idealist than I am a guardian
While I have never taken a personality test, I am well aware that I am a nurturer and that I am very domestic. But, there is a stronger part of me that focuses on "the way that things should be" and finding ways to make that happen. I am a huge traditionalist in all realms of life. Isn't it funny that teachers are considered idealists?
I also feel that I am very enthusiastic, and I am usually the one that tries to lift others spirits. In most of my relationships, I am the friend that gets the phone call from others seeking advice or reassurance. Nurturing parents also fall under the idealist category, so this was my decision maker because the biggest part of me that I felt was the guardian was the parent in me.
After taking the personality test, my results were: Guardian. So, I was not far off...I just happened to lean more toward my second option.
