about me
After taking a test on Myspace, I found that my Dominant Intelligence is Interpersonal Intelligence
"You shine in your ability to relate to and understand others. Good at seeing others' points of view, you get how people think and feel. You have an uncanny ability to sense true feelings, intentions, and motivations. A natural born leader, you are great at teaching and mediating conflict.
You would make a good counselor, salesperson, politician, or business person."
