hmmm...
Vivacious. Gregarious. Dangerous. Slightly gay. Not to be trusted, you are of House Tyrell.
You are of a more submissive personality, though this is not to say that you are unambitious. On the contrary, you know that the spotlight brings more than glory. Unwilling to be saddled with the accusations and petty treacheries of court life, you are content to let someone else hold the reigns of the empire. You’re in the thick of it, though; no one makes a move that you haven’t anticipated. Those headstrong types are so easy to control.
You are also extroverted, which means that no matter how subtly you move your hand, everyone knows that you’re a player--a major one. Your sociability makes you a boon to the smallfolk, though in truth they love a façade. Your god-given talents will often excuse you from criticism, but jealousy will follow you like a dog wherever you go.
You are definitely untrustworthy. Behind you beaming smiles and polite laughter lurks the most dangerous kind of enemy: a charismatic one. You’re opportunistic, and all the more treacherous for your subtlety. An efficient political machine, you are always evaluating yourself as well as your surroundings. There’s no room for error in your household or yourself, and you’ll cut off the hand that offends you.
Representative characters include: Margery Tyrell, Loras Tyrell, and Olenna Redwyne.
Similar Houses: Baratheon, Frey, Tully
Opposite House: Lannister
Seat: Highgarden
When playing the game of thrones, you play it with style.

natural decorations
Last night I was wandering in the backyard, just looking around. There were lightning bugs in all the bushes by the creek, randomly flashing their messages. I had just finished watching Close Encounters and I was thinking about communication. Ever since I was a little girl I looked for the lightning bugs because it meant my birthday was near. We hadn't seen any this year until the huge storm on Tuesday (hail, wind, destruction) and I guess the rain made them come out. I think they always make decorations for my birthday.

....but purple is NOT my color....
Your Brain is Purple
Of all the brain types, yours is the most idealistic.
You tend to think wild, amazing thoughts. Your dreams and fantasies are intense.
Your thoughts are creative, inventive, and without boundaries.
You tend to spend a lot of time thinking of fictional people and places - or a very different life for yourself.

mortality
Work is sometimes humbling. 16 year old with an incurable brain tumor....still a sweet kid. Would I be so compassionate to others in that state?
Current Mood:  sympathetic

The trees are beginning to turn....
I love Fall. The smells, the textures of leaves and acorns under my shoes, the feel of the air. Time to start shopping for Christmas....!!
