WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE (MACARON) COLOUR?

When I was in my senior years of high school there was a ski trip the school had organised. Full of excitement, as this was my first trip to the snow, I was shocked & overwhelmed on arrival as all students were assembled into an enormous hall.

Shocked, as not only there were other students from other schools at that trip but also because there were boys! (yes, I attended an all girls high school..LOL..) & overwhelmed, as there were at least a hundred or more students assembled.

Reminiscing it was like a scene from Harry Potter where the students were being “sorted” into the four houses, but the “hat” had already decided, & separated from my friends, my name was called & I was asked to join Group A. And when all students were “sorted”, it was revealed we were to participate in the scheduled activities with our assigned group for the rest of the trip.

So how did the “hat” “sort” the students?

The Answer: The student’s handwriting on the ski trip consent form.

It was announced our handwriting had been expertly analysed & based on the analysis we were grouped with other students who have the same personality traits. The male teacher then had a little chuckle as he warned of those lazy students who’s parent had completed their form, that technically it would have been the parent getting along well with the members of their group(I guess it was the schools scientific attempt of ensuring students lived peacefully with each other for the next couple of days).

And that was my first experience of a personality test. But did you know besides handwriting, your favourite colour can also give an insight into your personality?

So what does your favourite colour say about you?


Macarons - a spectrum of colour!

* ORANGE - is the color of fun & warmth. You are fun, outgoing & enjoy life to the fullest.

*  YELLOW - is the color of creativity & learning. You’re  charming, confident, imaginative & happy go lucky. You love new opportunities & experiences.

* PINK - is the color of beauty, hope & love. You are charming, compassionate & giving. You love to have fun & be playful.

* WHITE - is the blending of all the colors. It represents strength & purity. You are neat, organised & shy. You value tradition & need to have strong stability in your life.

* BROWN - is the color of nature & wholesomeness. You are dependable & friendly. You are a great trusting friend & a pleasant person to be around with.

  1. Are you serious?! That's so weird... Why would anyone do that? I'm very sceptical of personality tests

  2. Hi Phuoc,

    Hahaha...looking back it does seem somewhat invasive especially having been tested unaware until after the fact.

    Whether or not it achieved their objective remains a mystery but it's one of those life experiences I'll always remember!
