The personality which most describes me is the Party Personality. I major attribute is being able to interact with people. I think that bringing a group of people together and making them happy is more important alot of times and will have much more influence on them than making sure a group gets done the task that they set out to do. I have a strong urge to make everyone feel welcome. Try to make everyone feel a part of the group. My freedom to do what I want is important to me. I at times begin feeling trapped if I do not have that freedom. And in the social realm I like being the one that everyone looks to.

So which type of personality are you guys.
