Chinese Zodiac Bleme!

[dvandom]

I've decided to try starting an LJ meme, inspired by the upcoming Chinese New Year.

1. Go to Wikipedia's page on the Chinese Zodiac.
2. Find your zodiac animal. Paste in the positive and negative attributes, boldfacing the ones you think apply to you.
3. Pick a random zodiac animal (what, you don't have a 12-sided die?), and repeat.
4. Post all of this to your LJ.


Born 1970: Metal Dog
Positive: Loyal, modest, dependable, just, patient, honest, well-meaning, caring.
Negative: Nervous, quick-temper, judgmental, gullible, self-righteous, pessimistic, petty, accusing (I'll note that I manage to keep both under control these days.)



Random: Fire Horse
Positive: Lovable, enthusiastic, independent, optimistic, strong, adaptable, generous, sociable
Negative: Anxious, fickle, defiant, tactless, selfish, gullible, inconsistent, quick-tempered

Looks like some crossover, there.

See, I am a Wood Rabbit, but I think Metal or Earth describe me better.

I hit a snag. My first two random animals, rabbit (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_%28zodiac%29) and snake (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_%28zodiac%29) didn't those traits listed conveniently in the table. Here's what I finally ended up with (http://1boringperson.livejournal.com/11758.html).

Pig has the same problem, and that's my real animal...
