A week back, as requested by Reni, I'd given my handwriting up for analysis.

Why ? Well, what can I say ? I'm an open book. People just have to see me to be able to know what I'm thinking in real life. For example, just ask any of the college girls in the shopping malls who take one look at me and guess "You sex depraved pervert !!"... I mean, wow !! Talk about accuracy. ( I wonder if my biting my lower lip and drooping my eyelids gives them a clue )

Anyway, Reni's done analysing me and I have to say she's got most of it right, I feel.

"You're not an extremist in any way. In general, when making a decision you weigh the odds and logically decide without going too far to the extreme or succumbing to far reaching ideas. At an emotional level you very well know how to empathize with other people and you've got a weakness for emotional laden stories (That's one of the reasons why you write such great fiction.) Your handwriting portrays you as a kind and affectionate person who is basically an ambivert - you know and like to deal with both introverts and extroverts but not with people of the extreme sort of both ends of the spectrum. You know how to entertain and keep company people of both types. You can be quite moody with your occassional highs and lows. You're quite an expressive person. You've got the ability to socialise and interact with others. You expect people to respect you and treat you with dignity. You're quite frank and candid when expressing your opinions. 

When it comes to your mental abilites, you've got an investigative as well as creative mind. Your creative mind comes to play when you've got the time and leisure to think on a particular topic. You might rush into a project but you might have to slow down a bit to actually get those ideas ticking and working. It's when you have the time to ponder you are able to remember things longer and arrange them in your memory bins in a more logical manner. However, when you are in the investigative mode you are able to think faster and maintain an alert mindset. You're a down-to-earth person and extremely practical. You need to know what your goal is before you start a project. Although you have everything planned and sorted out, everything won't go as planned. However, you survive odds because you seem to have a good self-esteem (not too high or low). You're a good story teller because in a lot many instances you can exaggerate a situation and its occurrences. Creativity is your talent. You allow a lot of people into your life because you are accepting and trusting (sometimes you make the mistake of trusting people too much - your friends may label you as a naive person because of this.) There was this one page in how you wrote your 'y's which made me feel you're real frustrated about something." 







Sounds just about right to me.
I'd like to think I'm not an extremist. ( except if you put your hand in my plate of food.. that's blasphemy and your hands give up their rights to be anything more than cocktail wienies.)
I am indeed a sucker for emotional stories. I'd let a robber go anyday if he told me he had to pay for his blind three legged dog's tail transplant. Heck, I'd donate the neighbourhood cat's legs too.. what can I say ? I'm swell.
I am an ambivert - I was an introvert, love made me an extrovert, life made me a sambar of both.
Expressive, socialising, frank and candid - tick.
Expect people to respect you - well, I am God's best man, ain't I ? ( The red guy with the horns .. that's not God ?? Oh man, have I been batting for the wrong team !! )
Investigative - yes, thanks to Google
Creative - well, gee shucks.. ooookay.
Rushing into projects & everything doesn't go according to plan ... Hmm. That is BY FAR the most accurate point about me, Reni. You wouldn't believe the stuff I've done without thinking it over properly... and some of the consequences.
Practical... Hmm. Honestly, not really. I'm an Aquarian. I dream big. I'm already thinking what / who to do once I'm done with Kim Kardashian.
Trusting people - ya, that's true as well. Keep telling myself I'll grow up and get rid of this feature.. so far, I've only grown wider.

Overall, pretty good assessment.
Of course, I tricked her by not sending the picture with the stripper girl drawings so she couldn't identify that aspect of my personality. Smarrrrt Boyyy !
Thanks Reni.

Let me know what you think.

  1. I think these are the most Basic human characteristics i.e. weighing the odds and deciding logically, affectionate person (i mean every person is affectionate in his/her own manner), striking the balance between Introvert & Extrovert, quite moody ..etc which every Human possess.

    Overall, nice to know you more :P

  3. the interesting thing about this analysis is that it could be about anyone and it would still be true...

    This is called cold reading.. its a hell of a technique, you should check it out... I am not saying it is not true about you, I am saying the same is true about 80% of the world's population :p

  4. Somethings you can identify from hand writing. . Like my mom always say am immature and not determined at all looking at my hand writing. . Of course she has other reasons also. .
    But somethings are true for the majority and somethings are there which we all feel we have. . Anyway should agree with the emotions and creativity part!!

  5. hmmm, I was expecting a little of those skeptical comments - 80% of the population being the way I described ya? Woow, the world would've been a better place!

  6. I think what Satinder means is that, if you give the same analysis to many people, a majority of them would feel that it is just right about them. No offence to Reni, but I think a bit of it is true of every one. But the percentage of each quality would differ from person to person. (Hope I make sense!)

    But, I'm sure Reni knows best. :)

    Thanks for coming over to my site, Dr.Roshan.

  9. But Roshan doc, I am not impressed with this handwriting assessment. Because most people who read you can say this much about you. Who doesnt know you're creative and whose project goes as per project plan? :D :D Switch ittal fan karangum, varumanam kondu chilavu nadakkum type of prediction pole undu :D I could say more about you without the handwriting sample I tell you !
