In order to de-stress

eumeliaWell, I have my first University test. Ever. This morning.
It went fairly well, nothing like previous tests I acquired for practice suggested it would be, which in a way was better. This test was Intro to Ethics (interesting, obviously, but also a bit boring because went from Plato to Kant and didn't get to JS Mill or Nietzsche, because of the strike) and instead of giving us a question which was: "here is principle what does philosopher A say about it and what does philosopher B say about it? Compare.
That's easy.
We got questions about Subjectivism and Relativism and about Reason between Plato and Kant. So we actually had to think, which is something I do indeed love to do.
Hopefully my thoughts made sense on the paper.
I certainly took my time, two and a half hours and I left with only fifteen minutes to spare.
This is, by the way, my first exam since I matriculated five years ago (the Psychometric doesn't count, and in any event I also did it three years ago).
You are driven by a higher purpose than most people. You have a deeply-rooted desire to facilitate peacefulness in the world. Whether through subtle interactions with love ones, or through getting involved in social causes, it is important to you to influence the world.
You are driven by a desire to encourage others to think about the positive side of things instead of focusing on the negative. The reason your unconscious is consumed by this might stem from an innate fear of war and turmoil. Thus, to avoid that uncomfortable place for you, your unconscious seeks out the peace in your environment.
Usually, the thing that underlies this unconscious drive is a deep respect for humankind. You care about the future of the world, even beyond your own involvement in it. As a result, your personal integrity acts as a surrogate for your deeper drive toward peace and guides you in daily life towards decisions that are respectful toward yourself and others.
Ummm, it's fairly me. Yeah, I'd say it's me. Pretentiousness and all ;P
