After a night of feeling ill and trying to distract myself, I came across this interesting website CLICK HERE. For those of you who know me well, you would know that I love my personality quizzes so I thought I'd give it a try (my answers are in purple).
Make sure to try it out yourself before reading my answers :)
I want you to imagine a desert, stretching out as far as your eyes can see. In this desert is a cube.
Your first task is to describe the cube. What does it look like? How large is it? What is it made of? Where exactly is it?
The cube is small, small enough to fit into one hand that can be carried around in your pocket. It is a 4 by 4 made of glass that is transparent however there is something cloudy on the inside, and is covering up a small glow of blue in the center. It is placed in the middle of the desert with nothing surrounding it.
As you look at the desert and your cube, you notice there is also a ladder. Your second task (there are just five) is to describe the ladder. What is it made of? How big is it? Where is it, in relation to the cube?
The ladder is medium sized, however it is broken in half and some of the steps are missing that cannot allow one to climb onto it. The are also splinters sticking out from it making it very dangerous to hold onto it, let alone trust it to be able to hold your body weight. It is laid on the ground, buried beneath the sand with its head poking out just enough for you to spot it when close enough, however could also be stepped on if not careful. One half is never to be found.
Now imagine that in the scene there is a horse. (Yes, horse. I didn’t say this desert made sense). Your third task: describe the horse. Most importantly: where is the horse, and what is it doing? Where, if anywhere, is it going?
There is a horse, just a normal average brown horse drinking water from a small lake.
We’re nearly there now. In the scene before you are flowers. Your penultimate task: describe the flowers. How many are there? What do they look like? Where are they, in relation to the horse, cube, ladder and sand?
There are a bunch of colourful followers at a nearby lake, beside the moist rock. The flowers consist of yellows, reds, whites and pinks. They are very beautiful in comparison to the ladder (broken and splintered), the cube (fragile and cloudy covering up a glow of blue) and the sand (deep and hard to walk around in).
Final question. In the desert there is a storm. Describe the storm. What type of storm is it? Is it near, or far? What direction is it headed? Does it affect the horse, flowers, cube or ladder?
There is a large storm coming straight ahead, the clouds are forming and in minutes the storm hits the desert. It affects the horse (making it run away frantically in different directions confused and crying out in fear), the cube is being rained on making the sand moist and covering over it, the ladder is unmoved and the flowers are swayed against it frantically, some even being ripped in pieces with no cloves yet.

Answers:
The cube is yourself.
The size is ostensibly your ego: a large cube means you’re pretty sure of yourself, a small cube less so.
The vertical placement of the cube is how grounded you are. Resting on the sand? You’re probably pretty down to earth. Floating in the sky? Your head is in the clouds.
The cube’s material conveys how open you are: transparent cubes belong to transparent people, opaque cubes are more protective of their minds. Glowing? You’re likely a positive person, who aims to raise the spirits of others. Made of granite? You’re likely protective and resilient.
The trick here is that when asked to describe a blank, abstract entity – a cube – your imagination will tend to project its own identity onto it. This trick is as old as time, but it’s about to get more interesting.
The ladder represents your friends.
Are your friends leaning on the cube? Your friends depend on you, and are close. Is the ladder frail, or robust? Tall or short? Does it lead inside the cube? Or is it cast to one side, lying unloved on the sand? By now you should be able to draw your own conclusions.
The horse represents your dream partner.
The type of horse reveals a lot about what you yearn for in a partner. Some people see a steady brown workhorse, others a shining pegasus or unicorn. Make of these people what you will.
Is your horse nuzzling your cube affectionately, or taking a bite out of it? Is it far from your cube, or walking away? This can represent a current partner, or an aspirational one, but the results are often a mix of touching and hilarious.
The flowers represent children.
The number of flowers relates to how many you imagine having. Some people see just a single, withered daisy; others a resplendent garden covering the cube and desert beneath. (Guys: watch out for those).
The colour and vitality of the flowers can speak to their health and presumed prosperity. The placement – particularly in relation to the cube – can reveal interesting relations; I met one woman whose horse was eating their flowers.
Finally, the storm represents threat.
This speaks to the current state of the person, and how they perceive risk in their life. Some may see a distant storm, on the lip of the horizon, fading from sight. Others may view themselves in the midst of a thunderous apocalypse, hailstones the size of tennis balls pelting their fragile cube and horse. Chances are those people have some immediate trauma in their life.
