Check it out! The woman in the picture even LOOKS like a stereotypical librarian! (although a little more stylish) This “quick & dirty” test means just four either/or questions. It will get you pinned down to the best TYPE of career for you, and also can be informative as you change an answer and see how it affects the results.

Your Career Personality: Original, Devoted, and Service Oriented

Your Ideal Careers: Art director Book editor College professor Composer Film director Graphic designer Novelist Stage actor Psychiatrist Writer

This particular quiz is interesting because it breaks the overall picture down into different categories, like Social Issues, Ethics, etc., and gives you a different kind of glimpse into your own self and just how liberal or conservative you are in particular ways.

You Are Superman

Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. And pretty cute too. No wonder you’re the most popular superhero ever!

For me, it was back and forth between Spiderman and Superman, but I think that was mostly when I changed the need for a costume to be hiding my identity. Otherwise it was Superman. Although… Batman DOES have lots of cool toys!

Your Career Type: Social

You are helpful, friendly, and trustworthy. Your talents lie in teaching, nursing, giving information, and solving social problems. You would make an excellent: Counselor - Dental Hygienist - Librarian Nurse - Parole Officer - Personal Trainer Physical Therapist - Social Worker - Teacher The worst career options for your are realistic careers, like truck driver or farmer.

Note: My worst career options are “realistic careers.” What’s that mean? Are they saying that Nurses and Teachers and Librarians AREN’T realistic careers? I’m not sure I get that comment.

You Are Lightning Beautiful yet dangerous People will stop and watch you when you appear Even though you’re capable of random violence You are best known for: your power Your dominant state: performing What Type of Weather Are You?

You Are Rain You can be warm and sexy. Or cold and unwelcoming. Either way, you slowly bring out the beauty around you. You are best known for: your touch Your dominant state: changing What Type of Weather Are You?

I was back and forth between these two, so I figured why not put BOTH up?

Speaking of what American cities fit you, I found this MOST EXCELLENT website for looking at all your preferences and giving you a list of cities and small towns that best fit you.

It’s called Find Your Spot and it’s a nicely detailed survey (8 short pages) that assesses your preferences and matches them with cities and towns across America. “Compare the perfect hometowns and undiscovered havens that match your interests. Dig deeper with colorful reports, job listings, and more. It’s fun & easy!” Complete the survey and they’ll give you a list of the top 24 cities that they recommend as the perfect place for you. Survey questions cover weather, culture, education, outdoor activities, geography, crime, religion, housing costs, and other qualities.

It might sound a little hokey, but IT REALLY WORKS! I was surprised by how accurate their suggestions were matched to what I like in a city/town. Their results give you stats like weather, housing costs, population, and a short description. And right from their list you can follow links to more information about the city, job listings, realtors, and more. And if you create a profile (or allow cookies), you can save your results and revisit them later.

Here’s the list they provided me (updated from the original since they allow you to review your answers and make changes):

1. Carlisle, Pennsylvania
2. Cincinnati, Ohio
3. Olympia, Washington
4. Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
5. Seattle, Washington
6. Roanoke, Virginia
7. Tacoma, Washington
8. Altoona, Pennsylvania
9. Kent, Washington
10. Anchorage, Alaska
11. Ogden, Utah
12. Norfolk, Virginia
13. Spokane, Washington
14. Springfield, Missouri
15. Duluth, Minnesota
16. Bellingham, Washington
17. Indianapolis, Indiana
18. Grand Rapids, Michigan
19. Asheville, North Carolina
20. Albany, New York
21. Idaho Falls, Idaho

Try it out yourself! You’ll be impressed and maybe even inspired to consider relocating! http://www.findyourspot.com/

(Now if only they’d include Canada, or better, World Cities (or at least Europe).)

Sure, there’s probably a limited list of cities included as possibilities, but it’s interesting to see the results, which are based on what you like or require in a city.
