Hippie Happie I was bored, and we had a lecture on positive psychology. Positive psychology is not saying that depression is a social construct, but an absence of illness is just not enough anymore. People need to be pushed from just 'surviving' to 'flourishing'. Everyone should visit this site . You'd need to sign in to be able to do the tests/quizzes, but its all just so that the researchers can collect results and demographics from around the world. They probably wont send you newsletters... I think. Anyhow, 240 questions later, here are my strengths! (and no weaknesses cos, like, there is not such thing as weaknesses in positive psychology) Your Top Strength |
Humor and playfulness |
Your Second Strength |

Your Third Strength |

Your Fourth Strength |
Gratitude |
Your Fifth Strength |

Something Amazing.
On Saturday, I ordered New York Fries in an Italian restaurant. They gave me a plate of potatoes in their original form, round with the brown skin still on and all, with a side of sweet chilli and mayo. the toppings look right, but everyone at my table were just as confused as me about the potatoes. But, when I took a bite out of one of it, zomg, it was exactly like eating fries! the outside was crispy and salty (they dribbled salt all over the crispy skin), and the inside is the same potato as in fries of course. So, with the toppings, if felt exactly like i was eating fries!! Until i looked down again at my plate of course. BUT. WAH. highlight of my night, cos everything tasted like crap.
