You Are Jaws |
![]() You're scared of what you can't see right in front of you. Your imagination tends to get the better of you. And for you, something like the deep, dark ocean is obviously pretty terrifying. Who knows what's lurking right next to you? The idea of trying to get away from something that's after you really gets your heart pumping. Being chased horrifies you. You're also quite scared of big, hungry animals with no sense of right or wrong. You know a shark will stop at nothing to make you its lunch. |

Your Home Is Not Haunted |
![]() There's nothing particularly creepy about your home. Anything you notice is probably quite normal. You probably already knew that your home isn't haunted. In fact, you may not even believe in homes being haunted. Your home is welcoming, warm, and comfortable. Even on the coldest and deadest of nights, you feel safe. Your home is the perfect place to watch a terrifying horror movie. No matter how scared you get, you'll sleep soundly afterwards. |

You Are a Carnival Mask |
![]() You are flirtatious, charming, and seductive. You are both mysterious and alluring. You know how to dance the steps, no matter what the dance is. You always know what the next move should be. You are good at drawing people in but not letting them get too close. You know how to be wanted. You prefer to be understated than over the top. You never want to be seen as trying too hard. |
You Should Carve a Classic Pumpkin Face |
![]() You are calm, collected, and together. You are good at following rules and instructions. You tend to celebrate Halloween in the same way every year. You have a routine down that you like. You look forward to your favorite decorations, candy, and costumes. You might even carve the same pumpkin face each year. You love the Halloween classics like little kids in costumes, spooky movies, and candy corn. Why mess with a good thing? |

You Should Dress Up As a Bunny |
![]() You are bouncy, cute, and a bit hard to catch. You are usually very caught up in doing your own thing. You attract a lot of attention, and to be honest, a lot of it is unwanted. You're a true introvert, and you prefer to be left alone. While you may want to fade into the background, there's no chance of that happening any time soon. Everything you do is charming and adorable. You move quickly through life. You are always changing, learning, and evolving. And you're not about to let anyone slow you down! |

Book Review: Bright-sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America by Barbara Ehrenreich
Book: Bright-sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America by Barbara Ehrenreich
About: Ehrenreich takes on the seemingly ubiquitous positive psychology, "always be happy and optimistic" mindset that has taken off in recent years. Covering religion, politics, business, health and The Secret, she presents a nicely rounded counterpoint to all smiles all the time, advocating not a negative viewpoint but a realistic "see things as they are" outlook..
Pros: She makes some great points and asks interesting questions, such as why does the U.S. call its nationalism patriotism? In-text cites. Well written
Cons: Lots of names and authors mentioned, I had to flip back in the book a few times to remind myself who was who.

Your City is Sydney |
![]() You are straightforward, honest, and real. You believe it's important to be yourself, even if you shock people. You are worldly and well traveled. You have seen a lot in your life, and it's hard to rattle your cage. You tend to embrace a laid back, "anything goes" attitude. You wouldn't ever think to judge someone. You believe that it's important to seize the day and live like there's no tomorrow. You can get along with anyone who agrees. |
