    So, do you see the glass half-empty or half-full?

    Personally, it depends on the situation. If it's a time when I see no way out and I know there's no hope that things will improve, I become pessimistic. However, if I see a silver lining, even if it's small, I immediately try and show everyone that there's hope

    I find that I am an optimistic pessimist. In that, in order that I might be pleasantly surprised, I think negatively, but I dont' believe it in my heart.

    it's half full, but I think of that as half empty.

    I think the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

    To answer the actual question, though, I'm generally pessimistic.

    I'm an optimist because I fear no amount of hardship, and I put myself under a great deal of pressure because I can and always have been able to handle it, whatever it is.
    (SPOILER)Because I'm the most rockingest creature of success you chumps'll ever meet.

    On the other hand, I get really down about my problems and come off as very pessimistic because until I achieve my great successes, i have absolutely no reason to believe that my whole life won't fall apart like a one of those chess games that's held together by a series of pins. One small break in the position means... Well, I'm sure you've seen that collapse.

    Half-full after my change of attitude about a year and a half ago

    I'll third that. If you're filling the glass, it's half full; if you're drinking from the glass, then it'll be half empty.

    *drinks the water*

    How about "it's empty." Are you happy, yet?

    It depends on the situation, but I'm generally optimistic.

    I deny the existance of said water and aforementioned glass altogether.

    Pessimism to an unnecessary degree.

    Can never be exactly half full/empty, there's always some degree of error
