This was rather a good personality test, as those things go! You may want to try the Color Self-Analysis Test (http://www.colorgenics.com/)as well! Here are my results:
You work hard ...seeking success. You are self-sufficient and in spite of
all the trials and tribulations that have beset you in the past - you carry
on regardless... You are one to be admired because you pursue your
objectives single-mindedly and with initiative. You know that you can "do
it" and what is more - you will .. without necessarily being dependent upon
the goodwill of others..
Being a somewhat gentle, emotional and sensitive person, you are, at this
time experiencing a considerable amount of tension. What you really need is
someone who can be close to you and to listen to what you have to say...
The way things are at this time it is necessary to "go slow". All the
pleasures that you have anticipated should be left in abeyance until some
future date...But all is not lost...You are able to derive and achieve
considerable gratification to someone quite close to you...
Recent disappointment has led you to become truly introverted. You are
becoming suspicious of everybody and consequently you now feel that you are
unable to trust anybody..Unfortunately it would appear that you are curbing
your natural enthusiasm and imaginative nature ... perhaps this is because
you are fearful that you may become over enthused and find that you could
possibly be carried away by wishful thinking... You are keeping your
distance to see whether attitudes towards you are sincere - but this
watchfulness could easily develop into suspicion and distrust.
You are being very dogmatic... Insisting that there is to be absolutely no
equivocation whatsoever about your achievements and accomplishments.
Hmmmmm! Do I need a shrink?! :D :D :D

"You were likely a small farm animal in a previous life.
And why orange? Don't you just hate orange?"
I could've done without that analysis..... :rolleyes:

I did it, too.....
"You are a very sensitive person"
"You are a dreamer .. and you seek perfection in any relationship that you may establish. Some of your ideas and standards are over the top... so it may be a good idea to review your perception of life and accept people for what they are - not for what you would like them to be."
"You wish to be left in peace... no more conflict and no more differences of opinion ... In fact you just don't want to be involved in any arguments of any shape or form ... All you want is for "them" to get on with it - and to leave you alone.."
Hmmmmmmm........ :rolleyes:
Should I find a deserted island and go live there by myself?? :p :p
Kind regards,

Amazes me how some of those tests are pretty darn accurate. Not completly but close.
You are striving for a life full of activity and experience, and perhaps what is even more, an environment where you would be able to forge a close bond with a person who can offer full emotional fulfilment.
You are looking for something different. Your imagination has been working overtime and you are seeking adventure .. and you'd like to share that adventure ... the new experience with someone like yourself..Imaginative, Enthusiastic and Sensitive.
The way things are, you feel that you are stuck in a rut, there is not much you can do about it. You feel frustrated and inhibited...But if you can find a way to let yourself go, you may find that things aren't quite so bad as perhaps you thought they were. One consolation is that... since you are an extremely emotional individual, with the right person, you may be able to release some of that frustration and tension with some mutual tender loving care.
You are being unduly influenced by the situation that is all around you. You know that life can be wonderful and you are anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to live it to the full. You therefore resent any restriction or limitations that are being imposed on you and you insist on going it alone.
You don't like authority and you rebel against all forms of limitation. You are your own person and you intend to stay that way .. and to get on in the world simply by your hard work and determination.

Wow, this kind of blew my mind. The first paragraph, pegged me like a nail.
At this particular time,- you are feeling that you are/or were unjustly and undeservedly treated and/or betrayed in your hopes and dreams.....You feel that everything is against you...But look on the bright side...for you are, whether you believe it or not, a survivor....
Most people are conditioned by their environment and you are no exception .. You are an extremely emotional person - so much so that "the wrong word" can lead you to tears . You feel other peoples pain.You feel the need of sympathetic relationships and a pleasant work environment in order to develop and grow. You are an impulsive, loving individual with a great deal of inherent feeling.
You have a high opinion of yourself......It is perhaps because of this self-centredness, that you become exasperated when you feel that your needs are misinterpreted by those around you. When this happens.. and it does quite often...you feel that there is no-one that can understand the way you feel, and it is because of this egocentric self that you are quick to take offence.
You are trying to prove yourself .. not only to yourself.. but also to everyone around you...There is much that you would like to say and do .. but the situation warrants self-restraint .. and that is the last thing that you have on your mind..It would seem that you have an unsatisfied need to ally yourself with others whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different - to stand out from the crowd. This is subjecting you to considerable stress but you tend to stick to your attitudes despite lack of appreciation. Of course, you are finding the situation uncomfortable and would like nothing better but to break away from it. But you don't like the idea of compromise. Your main problem is that you are unable to resolve the situation because you continually postpone making the necessary decisions ... You feel that if you make the wrong choice this would lead to such opposition that you would not be able to command the esteem of others. It is essential that those around you are prepared to comply with your wishes and respect your opinions. Only when this compliance is established, will you feel at ease and secure.
It is strange that the anxiety that you are experiencing at this time is of your own makings simply because of your desire to be respected by your fellow man and with those whom you work with. You are not satisfied. The normal congenial "you" is becoming quite introverted. This is becoming increasingly more obvious because you seem to shy away from participating in everyday activities ... You are refusing to allow yourself to become involved, or to participate with others and it is the reluctance to communicate that is the inherent cause of your problems.

Hmm...Some are pretty close!!! :)
You want to be regarded as an exiting and interesting personality able to persuade others to comply with your beliefs and ideas. You are charming and able to influence other people who come into your sphere of influence. You like mental stimulation and you are the sort of person who is prepared to "try anything once". Your confidence is so much so that others are often swept away by your enthusiasm.
Your situation is such that at this time it is essential that you resolve your inherent problems immediately. You are not listening nor taking heed from your many friends and advisers, all of which, believe it or not, "wish you well". Most of your colleagues feel that your attitude is out of context....an attitude of recklessness and desperation. It is imperative that some solution be found, but whatever you do - think before you act...
Your involvement seldom measure up to your high emotional expectations and your "needs" to be "loved" and "cared for", have in the past often led to extreme disappointment. But a change is in the wind...make a firm decision to start anew...Just"think" it...and it will happen..
You are trying to prove yourself .. not only to yourself.. but also to everyone around you...There is much that you would like to say and do .. but the situation warrants self-restraint .. and that is the last thing that you have on your mind..It would seem that you have an unsatisfied need to ally yourself with others whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different - to stand out from the crowd. This is subjecting you to considerable stress but you tend to stick to your attitudes despite lack of appreciation. Of course, you are finding the situation uncomfortable and would like nothing better but to break away from it. But you don't like the idea of compromise.

It is essential that those around you are prepared to comply with your wishes and respect your opinions. Only when this compliance is established, will you feel at ease and secure.
You are greatly impressed by individuality and have interest in people who have outstanding qualities. You try to imitate those people that you admire and their characteristics, hoping that you will be able to display similar qualities in your own personality.

Parts of it are sure bang-on, others I'm not so sure about!
You have always longed for tenderness, love and a sensitivity of feeling into which you would like to blend. You are a very gentle warm person and responsive to "All things bright and beautiful". This personifies a caring person... A person who "needs" and indeed "needs to be needed".
You are a true extrovert, frivolous and outgoing. You need to feel in control of any situation. If matters are not proceeding according to plan you tend to get extremely irritable and perhaps become difficult to live with. "Compromise" is the name of the game at this time...and it is the only way by means of which you can avoid being deprived of the love and affection you so rightly deserve...so soften up a little.. be flexible. You are trying to prove yourself .. not only to yourself.. but also to everyone around you...There is much that you would like to say and do .. but the situation warrants self-restraint .. and that is the last thing that you have on your mind..It would seem that you have an unsatisfied need to ally yourself with others whose standards are as high as your own.

You would like to be respected and valued for yourself and this can only be achieved from a close and harmonious relationship.

You are working extremely hard trying to improve your image in the eyes of others. You are looking for acknowledgement from your peers and those who come into your sphere of influence ... You want to be liked, not for what people think of you but for what you really are.
You are feeling under considerable pressure and you are being forced to make concessions. You are not particularly happy with this state of affairs but you feel that you have no alternative. If you were to force issues you would be left out or completely ignored by one and all ...
All of the stress and strains resulting from disappointment have led to agitation and anxiety. You have been going out of your way to make a good impression, but you have reservations as to the likelihood of succeeding.You feel that you have a right to accomplish all that you set your mind on - but you have become helpless and distressed when circumstances have gone against you. The idea of failure is most upsetting and this can even mean utter dejection. You see yourself as a scapegoat ... and you feel everyone in your sphere of influence has tried to take undue advantage of you. You are trying to convince yourself that your failure to achieve standing and recognition is not of your making ... but indeed of those around you ...
Since in the recent past all of your hopes and aspirations gave been denied you, you are now convinced that the future will hold nothing but anxiety... so therefore... "why bother?" You would love to get away from it all, to escape from the trials and tribulations of this mundane existence and fall into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, which will protect you from the lack of appreciation and give you the chance to start afresh.
OK the 1st half was pretty spot on but try it again using random color choices instead of preferences and it still came out "close".
Very interesting though and Audrey and I both obviously chose the blue one 1st :)
Thanks Harrie!

Here is mine... Very weird way to tell how someone is though...
You have always been on the move seeking affectionate, satisfying and harmonious relationships. Your ultimate goal has been the realisation of an intimate union in which there could be love, self-sacrifice and mutual trust. It has often been said that "True love is just around the corner"...and maybe... if you haven't found it as yet - you possibly soon will.
At this time you "need to be needed" and again you "need to need". You have had this feeling for some time now and you are looking for someone who could share a close bond in an atmosphere of shared intimacy. You have that belief that with the right person you could conquer the world.
In spite of all the opposition you are insisting that your goals are realistic...but circumstances are forcing you to compromise...You are not very happy with this situation...but there is little that you can do about it. You have very strict standards...and these you try to apply with everyone who enters your sphere of influence...
You are presently experiencing excessive stress as a result of self-restraint. You act and think differently from the common herd and you want to be liked and admired for yourself and to associate with people who feel and act as you do...Because of this need to be self-reliant and to break away from mediocrity, you are finding this situation most uncomfortable and you are experiencing considerable anxiety ... perhaps even more than you feel the capacity to cope with. You need to find a "soul mate". Someone whose standards are as high as your own. But where? Keep on searching... The situation is uncomfortable and you would like to break away from it, but you refuse to compromise with your opinions. You are unable to resolve the situation because you are continually postponing the making of necessary decisions. You are stubborn... but this is no deterrent to a happy life ...So why drop your standards ... Think positively ... everything will work out.. It has worked out successfully for you in the past ... and it will again in the future.
The tensions and stresses that you have experienced of late have been the result of trying to cope with conditions which are really beyond your capabilities. You feel completely inadequate to cope with the situation and you would like nothing better to escape from it all ... and to be able to relax in a problem and pressure free environment where you can do your thing.
