Ladies and gents, this morning's colorgenics results (with added commentary):

You are a very sensitive person and you try hard (perhaps a little too hard) to make favorable impressions and to be recognized by your peers. But you have that inherent need to feel appreciated and admired and you are easily hurt if all of your endeavors go by unappreciated or not acknowledged. Stop trying so hard.

(Eh, I'm about as sensitive as... erm... Well, normally I am. Just... not at the moment...?)

You are full of stress at this time. It would seem that you are having more than your fair share of trials and tribulations and you are looking for a way out. You are not quite sure which way to go but the advice is - 'Stop trying so hard'.

(Hmm... entire weekend minus a two hour party break doing homework? Yep.)

Conditions are rather confusing at this time. You would like to involved with a particular person or a particular situation but you are holding back. You find it difficult to make a decision.

(And no, it is not Steven again. Or that Justin guy that I have yet to meet ::coughKarencough::)

The tension that you are experiencing at this time is perhaps due to physical and/or mental frustration. It would appear that you are not appreciated and as a consequence, the situation is most disagreeable. You seek personal recognition and the appreciation of others to compensate for the lack of like minded people with whom to ally yourself. You would like to surrender and merge with others but your inherent self-restraint makes it difficult for you to open up. This disturbs you as you regard such instincts as weaknesses to be overcome. You want to be liked, admired and appreciated for yourself.

(Yeesh, this is making me seem like quite the narcissist. And I'm really not as bad as they make me appear... ::looks side to side::)

You need to be respected as an exceptional individual. This is the only way that you can hope to achieve the status that you wish to achieve. You set yourself very high standards - and come what may - you abide by them.

(::nods:: But I'm still not quite the masochist that smart-Em is. History AP and the supplementary cram course?! Oh, and Bio AP as well.)

The stress that you are experiencing at this time is due to the present situation - a situation of your own making. But trying to ignore it, hoping that it will go away, will only aggravate it further. What you need to do is to slow down - to relax and re-think the situation and by going slow, you may be amazed to find that most of your problems will resolve themselves.

(One problem, I've been letting the situation fester for quite some time--damned bouts of minor depression--and so far nothing has done much to help. And slow down? Not bloody likely.)

In Conclusion: Whatever it is that's bothering me at the moment, I have to confront it first instead of letting stress take up most of my frontal lobes. Oh, and to stop trying so hard.

... Right-o. Dunno how I'll apply that to actual life situations, but always good to know.

... unless it's a genetic profile of all the things I'm most likely going to die from, in which case that might kill the last remaining decades of my life. -_-;;
