What’s The Point?

July 26, 2008 Liz 3 comments

I awoken at 9:30 this morning. Had coffee. Read the newspaper. Took a shower and by 11:30 a.m. I was sitting at the kitchen table with Tom and in between I got Brian some lunch. At around 3:00 p.m. I took myself from the table, ate some junk and then watched a little TV until 4:00 and then took a nap. Tom awoken me at 8:00 p.m. I watched a full hour of COPS, and here I am doing a meme.

Saturday Six

1. What’s the last card game you played, and with whom did you play?  Whist.  I played with my sister, bil and Tom 13 months ago.

4. Which chess piece are you?

The Rook’s Hawk

Congrats! Only 12-16% of the population score this!

The Rook’s Hawk is like a judge. They have a great sense of right and wrong especially in their area of interest or responsibility. They are devoted to duty. They are punctual. People who set their clocks on others are typically measuring their time with the Hawk. It is common to perceive that the Hawk is cold or aloof. They frequently protect their emotions via practicality.

They work systematically to get the job done. When a new procedure is proven, they can be depended upon to carry it out. The Rook’s Hawk is deeply frustrated by the inconsistencies of others, especially when it comes to commitments. They will keep their feelings to themselves – but when asked expect truth over tact. They are quite able to make the tough call and carry it out. You will find the Rook’s Hawk at home in government, schools, military or any other organization which maintains strict hierarchy. They are the traditionalist and are perfect for balancing out the idealists of other types.

The Rook’s Hawk thrives on organization. They keep their lives and environments well-regulated. They bring painstaking attention to detail in their work and will not rest until satisfied with a job well done. They are obviously hard workers. They will sort through ideas and find the most practical ones, again revealing how common sense prevails in this type. This ‘Pawn’ is the cornerstone of an ethical working society. They are centered on dealing with the present and most practical affair. They observe life and promote consistency in society. They value loyalty and others are best to acquaint themselves with this type if they wish to gain a fruitful insight to what makes the world tick.

5. Of the games you listed in the first three answers, did you win any of the matches?  Yes, my sister and I won a couple of hands of whist.

6. If you could only play one single game for the rest of your life, which game would you play and why would you choose it?  I don’t like to play games, but if I had to choose one I think it would be whist.  It reminds me of family and friends back home.  My father taught my sister and me how to play whist when we were kids.
