Take A Closer Look Episode 2

Hello, today will be a shorter entry, more of a recommendation.  I'm sure that tons of people have taken personality tests on Face Book, getting answers ranging from a devote psychopath to the gentle caring friend.  It's all very innacurate, but I'm here to tell you about a real personality test.  Go to google and type in personality test, and the first result will be a personality test by Briggs Myers.  I've done this, and at the end of the test, they give you a result.  A 4 letter word, the first 3 letters being INT, and the last letter is the determining factor.  INTJ is the most common result, 50% of people end up with this result.  When I took this test, my results were INTP, which only 1% of everyone in the world whohas this personality type.  You guys can go look INTP up to found out what I'm like.  I shouldn't be the one to tell you.

Welcome To My Blog!

Hello everyone, Welcome to my blog!

My name is Justin, and this blog is going to consist of taking random topics, anywhere from; how music affects our culture, to why we think and why we feel, and giving everyone a more detailed look at it.

First off, I am a 15 year old high school student, who has already self published a book I have written.  It was a long time ago I did this, and sadly I stopped making copies a long while ago, but I still have the craving to write, and this will be my outlet, and a place for you to learn something interesting.

Since I have a lot of free time on my hands, this blog will be updated 2-3 times a week, so if you like this first addition, stay tuned, there's much more to come, now, onto the topic.

Have you ever noticed that when people interact, our bodies do more talking that the words we say?  Body language is a very crucial and important part of human communication, after all, it's in our roots!  It can display some of the most subtle emotions, and at the same time, deliver the most intricate messages and sings.  When it comes to flirting, body language plays the most important role.  I'm sure everyone is familiar with the common flirtation signs: prolonged smiles, constantly brushing your hair back, the constant batting of the eyes and the increase of redness in the cheeks, all these very small actions indicate the biggest things.  A person who is very fluent and very understanding in body language is usually a very charismatic person, someone who knows how to talk to others well.  Being able to see body language and decode it is probably the most important part of business.  If you want people to like you, you have to give off a good vibe!  Sadly, with the internet being so mainstream now, people are alarmingly losing sense of body language, because they are doing what you're doing now, reading text!  You can of course tell when I'm being sarcastic, or being humorous, but it's because of the wording that you can see it.  From personal experience, people seem to be becoming mentally attached to the words; LOL, ROFL, LMAO and so on, and when the are in a social setting, it seems like there is a pause when the inflection in someones voice is hinting what they just said was a joke, because the person that is listening is usually waiting for the other person to say LOL, but they quickly come to their senses and laugh, but it's very easy to catch these people who have become too dependent on textual indicators, rather than inflection of the voice, or movements of the body.

Body language is the most amazing, and detailed form of communication, don't let that slip away!
