if I am like that, if that’s my attitude to others and if this is how I interact with others. The result
came out and said that I am a Protagonist. Well, I don’t know because you know my personality
depends on who I am with, who I am dealing with. Maybe to others I am kind but to someone I
am bad, to others I am fun but to someone I am annoying. That’s why I really don’t trust or
believe to that result. But I am happy that it turns out to be a good one. It’s also funny because
some of question there or situations are very accurate, it’s fun also because it that situation is

questionnaire, maybe there are things that similar but you can’t just depend on that and believe
that that is really who you are.

their day won’t end without arguing. There are times they are

Displacement times that when my dad is angry or frustrated to my mom, he will
just hurt me or my sister instead of my mom or sometimes if he’s
mad, he will begin scolding me and that’s traumatic, I grew up
