ENTERTAINMENT and PERSONALITY TYPE: The Which Star Trek Species Would You Be? Test
The logical and loyal. Congrats, my favourite species!
Congrats, you're a Vulcan! You tend to be the more logical person. Whenever a difficult task comes up, you are the one with the answer. You analyse everything, and make sure you have the right answer before saying anything. You tend to be a more peaceful person, preferring not to act in violence. You are extremely loyal to your friends. However, many people tend to see you as emotionless. This is not true. You tend to hide your emotions from others, rather than let them show through. You are very good at giving advice and saving the humans when they make reckless mistakes.
Well-known Vulcans include: The icon of Trek, Spock; Sarek, father of Spock; Tuvok of Voyager; and T'Pol of Enterprise.
COMPARED TO OTHER TAKERS:
You scored 80% on Vulcan, higher than 97% of your peers.
You scored 7% on Ferengi, higher than 62% of your peers.
You scored 7% on Borg, higher than 21% of your peers.
You scored 7% on Romulan, higher than 16% of your peers.
You scored 0% on Cardassian, higher than 25% of your peers.
You scored 0% on Klingon, higher than 13% of your peers.

PERSONALITY TYPE: What Kind of Shoe Are You
Fun, unique, and vintage. You don't care a lot about what other people think. You do your own thing and are your own person. You have fun no matter what you're doing and enjoy being surrounded by friends. You still need your down time though!
Take the quiz
Labels: clothes, do own thing, down time, friends, fun, individuality, not care what others think, own person, PERSONALITY, PERSONALITY TYPE, shoes, unique
PERSONALITY TYPE: Which Shoe Fits You?
Your motto is, "Cute can be comfy." You're a girlish type who enjoys fashion, but you're so not willing to make your feet suffer for it. Pretty ballerina-style flats are more your style. They let you live your on-the-go life, without slowing you down. And they come in so many adorable colors! The things that make you happiest are simple pleasures, such as playing with puppies, talking on the phone to friends, and eating ice cream. Does that make you immature? No way - it just means you know what's really important to you. You will probably fall in love with a guy you are friends with first.

RealAge

What's making your RealAge younger or older...
We calculated your body mass index (BMI) to be 30.6.
BMI is a measure that represents the relationship between your weight and your height. It gives us a good start when estimating health risks, but it doesn't tell the whole story. What's missing is how much fat you have, relative to your overall weight, and where that fat is on your body. Read more.

PERSONALITY TRAIT: What's Your Price?
I'm worth $652 million! (13 dealbreakers.)
You're getting a bit expensive.
If we put you on the market, it looks like you'd be worth $652 million. Of the 42 different scenarios, you said you couldn't be bought on 13 of them.
For the record, every time you refused to do something for any amount of money, it added another $50 million to your score (hey, I had to assign it SOME sort of dollar value).
So, you've definitely got your limits. Some people will do anything for money, and while you'll go reasonably far, there are a definitely several lines that you'd never cross. That's the important thing, too - if money is the ONLY motivator in your life, then maintaining any real relationships or friendships becomes impossible. You understand that, and while you appreciate that having the extra cash could be a lot of fun, you're not the sort of person to sell out everyone and everything.
In the grand scheme of things, most people look a bit cheap next to you.

PERSONALITY: Are You a Plausible Character?
Your result for The Are You a Plausible Character? Test...
You scored 42 on Implausibility, higher than 43% of your peers
A Childhood Friend
You're a pretty neat person- but still very real. You are a person of few extremes, but you have your moments of glory. When you're at your best, people can be wowed by you- but you're not always at your best. And that's OK. You're only human.
A novel with you as a character would sell quite well. It might not make the New York Times' bestseller list, but then again, it might. Who knows? Most people would certainly buy a book with you as a character in it. Well, they might wait for it be available in paperback- but they'd buy it eventually.
