ISFJ

Hey guys! So the other day, one of my favorite bloggers, Cait at the Notebook Sisters, blogged about her Meyer-Briggs personality type and fictional characters who have the same type as herself. Not too long ago, my family all took the personality quiz and it’s almost scary how accurate it is! I always find it interesting – and, hey, what can I say? I’m human. I like learning about/talking about/other people talking about myself. I also like finding kindred spirits like myself in people: fictional people, especially.

So I thought it would be interesting to look up fictional characters who have the same personality as me, just like Cait did – and boy, did I relate! (To some of them…!) I’m an ISFJ, and evidently, so are these fictional characters.

ISFJs are loyal, orderly and sensitive. They can be very shy around people they don’t know, but are the sort of person who will always remember your birthday, and are never accidentally offensive.

#1: Marlin from Finding Nemo. 
Whaaaat? Pffft. No way. um, actually, yes way. I can totally see myself being a Marlin. And I even have my Dory and Nemo. (Not naming anyone, but… Sydney. Anna. Olivia.) They keep me on my toes, okay??

#2: Elinor Dashwood from Sense & Sensibility. 
Yep, yep. Mmmm-hmm. have sense, thank you very much – just like Elinor. Plus, I take good care of my lil’ sis, if I do say so myself… when I’m not teasing her.

Don’t deny it, El! We all tease our siblings at some point.

#3: Meg March from Little Women.
Another older sister! OLDER SISTERS UNITE! While I rather sometimes wish I were as daring as next-to-oldest sister, Jo from Little Women, I can definitely relate with Meg. She’s caring and devoted to her family, and, hey, she has smarts and patience – enough to teach the snobby King children all for the sake of her family.

#4: Cinderella from Disney’s Version.
Hmm… I can’t say I anticipated this one. Tell me, why would I put up with those awful stepsisters and that dreadful stepmother, waiting for my prince?! I’d have moved out and made enough bang-bang to own my own bookstore – I’d be so rich princes would come after me. No way. Nuh-uh.

No. Way.

#5: Slinky Dog from Toy Story. 
Ahhh, Slinky Dog. I like him alright. He’s loyal to Woody, likes to play checkers (and if you notice, in the Toy Story movies, he picks the red checkers! JUST LIKE ME!), and sometimes, he needs to be stretched. HA! Hahaha. See what I did there?

#6: Winnie the Pooh from… Winnie the Pooh!
Deep in the hundred acre woods… where Christopher Robin plays… I really love Winnie the Pooh. I didn’t expect Pooh to be on the list, either, but not in a bad way. I’m proud to be a Winnie the Emily! He’s kind and friendly to everyone he meets, and he’s always optimistic. He also looovveeess his honey, and I loooovveee my chocolate.

Those are the characters I recognized in most of the lists I found via Google! (Disney cartoon characters and characters from some of my favorite classic novels were the only ones I really recognized! See a pattern, anyone?) To take the quiz yourself, go here.  What personality type are you?

Emily
