What do people envy?

A 'blogthing' quiz... rather strange to think that someone might envy compassion, but anyway. For what it's worth:

People Envy Your Compassion

You have a kind heart and an unusual empathy for all living creatures. You tend to absorb others' happiness and pain.
People envy your compassion, and more importantly, the connections it helps you build. And compassionate as you are, you feel for them.

Interesting personality test

This was an interesting one, with several questions, needing not yes/no answers but sliding scales or grids. Pretty accurate, too. Holding the mouse over the different coloured squares shows - supposedly - which traits I have most strongly, and which the least. Thanks to the Biscotti Brain blog for the link to this:

How Irish?

I guess St Patrick's Day must be coming up. It's not something we celebrate in England, nor in Cyprus, but it's big in Ireland, and even more so in the USA. Oddly enough I do have some Irish blood in me. My great-grandmother was half Irish. That makes me 1/32 Irish, technically speaking. Which is nearer 3% than 5%, but still not a bad estimate from a silly quiz (although 5% IS 'a wee bit'):

You're 5% Irish

You're not Irish. Not even a wee bit.
Not even on St. Patrick's Day!

What colour green?

I found this on Merry's blog. A slightly strange quiz asking what shade of green we are... not bad results, though. I don't think of myself as at all hippie-like, but I suppose eating mostly natural home-cooked food and home educating does give me that kind of label.

You Are Grass Green

Down to earth and a bit of a hippie, you are very into nature and the outdoors.
You accept the world and people as they are. You don't try to change things.
You are also very comfortable with yourself, flaws and all.
Optimistic about the future, you feel like life is always getting better.
