Donna exaggerates about everything that has a physical nature. Although she may not intend to deceive or mislead, she blows things way out of proportion because that is the way she views them. She will be a good story teller. This exaggeration relates to all areas of her material world.

Donna allows many people into her life because she is accepting and trusting. She is sometimes called gullible by her friends. That only really means that she trusts too many people. Donna has a vivid imagination.  Donna has a healthy imagination and displays a fair amount of trust. She lets new people into her circle of friends. She uses her imagination to understand new ideas, things, and people.   

Donna has a temper. She uses this as a defense mechanism when she doesn't understand how to handle a situation. Temper is a hostile trait used to protect the ego. Temper can be a negative personality trait in the eyes of those around her.   

Donna is a practical person whose goals are planned, practical, and down to earth.  This is typical of people with normal healthy self-esteem. She needs to visualize the end of a project before she starts.  she finds joy in anticipation and planning.  Notice that I said she plans everything she is going to do, that doesn't necessarily mean things go as planned.  Donna basically feels good about herself.  She has a positive self-esteem which contributes to her success.  She feels she has the ability to achieve anything she sets her mind to.  However, she sets her goals using practicality-- not too "out of reach."  She has enough self-confidence to leave a bad situation, yet, she will not take great risks, as they relate to her goals.  A good esteem is one key to a happy life.  Although there is room for improvement in the confidence catagery, her self-perception is better than average. 

In reference to Donna's mental abilities, she has a very investigating and creating mind. She investigates projects rapidly because she is curious about many things. She gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but she soon must slow down and look at all the angles. She probably gets too many things going at once. When Donna slows down, then she becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, she must slow down to do it. She then decides what projects she has time to finish. Thus she finishes at a slower pace than when she started the project. She has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. Her mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. She can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Donna can then switch into her low gear. When she is in the slower mode, she can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. She is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip. 

Diplomacy is one of Donna's best attributes. She has the ability to say what others want to hear. She can have tact with others. She has the ability to state things in such a way as to not offend someone else. Donna can disagree without being disagreeable.  Donna will be candid and direct when expressing her opinion. She will tell them what she thinks if they ask for it, whether they like it or not. So, if they don't really want her opinion, don't ask for it!    [Damn straight.]

Donna is moderately outgoing. Her emotions are stirred by sympathy and heart rendering stories. In fact, she can be kind, friendly, affectionate and considerate of others. She has the ability to put herself into the other person's shoes. Donna will be somewhat moody, with lows and highs. Sometimes she will be happy, the next day she might be sad. She has the unique ability to get along equally well with what psychology calls introverts and extroverts. This is because she is in between. Psychology calls Donna an ambivert. She understands the needs of both types. Although they get along, she will not tolerate anyone that is too "far out." She doesn't sway too far one way or the other. When convincing her to buy a product or an idea, a heart rendering story could mean a great deal to her. She puts herself in the same situation as the person in the story, yet she will not buy anything that seems overly impractical or illogical.

Donna is an expressive person. She outwardly shows her emotions. She may even show traces of tears when hearing a sad story. Donna is a "middle-of-the-roader," politically as well as logically. She weighs both sides of an issue, sits on the fence, and then will decide when she finally has to. She basically doesn't relate to any far out ideas and usually won't go to the extreme on any issue.  [Ahahahahahaha!  Whatever.  :P]

People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially.  According to the data input, Donna doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others.  Read more about her emotional expressiveness in the section on emotions and slant.  Donna has a desire for attention. People around Donna will notice this need. She may fulfill this need by a variety of ways depending on her own character. 



Oh, you know you want to go take it.

Oh, nearly forgot:  Congrats to queenkatiett for getting the job with CML!  All are agreed that we have never heard of a person being hired off the street into the CML machine, so those hours you spent studying up paid off!  Yay!

And many thanks to deirdre_riordan for the "Republicans for Voldemort" bumpersticker!  What would you like in return (postage?  paypal?) for that?  I'm already receiving comments.  :)

Ooh, and two Snarry recs!  rushlight75 has posted a sequel to Through a Shattered Mirror called Walking the Mirror's Edge.  And mousewrites has put up Chapter I and Chapter II of Corvus Fallere, Book II.  Looks like it'll be another late night for me.  :>



The cranky people and rich snobs I can handle.  It comes with the territory.  But I really hate it when people are hurt on library property.  We have to fill out a long accident/injury report form, and I always feel like a total ass having to ask all these questions of people.  You know, to cover the library's ass if they sue us.  *kicks litigious society* 

This poor lady fell down today.  She's obviously on chemotherapy and has cancer, and she tripped on the sidewalk.  Too weak to catch herself, she went face-first into the cold concrete.  Two younger women saw her on the sidewalk, bleeding (she couldn't get to her feet) and brought her in, called her husband.  She'd bashed her forehead, nose, lip, chin and broken a tooth.  :(  Though she was in a lot of pain, she was a trooper and her husband got there in record time.  Gah, I never know what to do, since I'm so limited in what I'm allowed to do.  I hate feeling helpless when people are hurting.  Boo.

I had no idea that my getting that job was so much of an accomplishment. How do people usually become a part of the library system?

[quidditchgrrl.livejournal.com]

Typically they know someone who works there or are family of an employee. It's actually pretty hard to even get an interview if you already work in the system (we've had tons of people apply for CML jobs - people who actually know and use the system already - who can't even get an interview). Though with all the upcoming changes and job upheavals, newcomers are no doubt going to be welcomed into the fold. Which is a very good thing.

How's it going so far?

I love it!

I'd confess my love for it in my journal every day if I had the time.

I love being the first one into the library every morning, when it's all dark inside and the only sound is the computers humming. And I love the crazy people who threaten the CSAs when they refuse to remove their fines. And I especially love that mullet.
