emotional intelligence

I took [this] emotional intelligence test today.

I got a 78. SEVENTY. EIGHT. D:

It's not surprising, but STILL. SEVENTY EIGHT? THAT'S THE BOTTOM 8% OF THE POPULATION. ~depressing~

My little sister got 141. Apparently this means the test is ~accurate, because she took a professional EQ test a while back and got the same score. This is the same sister who asked someone if she could call her 'Rachel' instead of her real name (Emily), because she thought Emily was hard to remember. LIFE IS SO UNFAIR.

Same here! Like, I can figure out (most) social cues, but when it comes to reacting to them? Um. Though sometimes I realize that I shouldn't have reacted a certain way after the fact, but at least I realize stuff eventually? It totally counts. :D? :D? :D?

I did ask her, but idk, I think her score is pretty accurate. She's always been the ~social butterfly~ of the family, and has the ability to take a really awkward situation and turn it around, it's amazing (IT'S A SUPERPOWAHHH). And she's very ~in touch~ with her emotions and the emotions of people around her, too.
