After taking a test, i realised that my personality is that of a Sanguine Melancholy. According to them, a Sanguine is ' The Extrovert The Talker The Optimist' while a Melancholy is ' The Introvert The Thinker The Pessimist '. The results show that i'm 50% Sanguine and 25% Melancholy! Haha.. i think that's kind of cool. Below are the weaknesses of a Sanguine & a Melancholy and the strengths of a Sanguine.
