Find your inner Dewey Decimal class number
Spacefem.com writes: “This quiz will convert your name to a class listed in the Dewey Decimal Classification system. That’s right. There’s no reason you can’t be classified, albeit randomly, just like a library book. Libraries are freaking awesome and we all need to read more, so there. Somewhere between 000 (Generalities) and 999 (Extraterrestrial worlds), you have a place.”... [emphasis my own]
Of the possible results you can get when plugging in your choice of name, number, and birthdates, I found these to be a bit ... well apropos. If you've been reading the blog lately, you'll get why. (Again, underlined emphasis my own.)
First Result:
638 Insect culture
Class: 600 Technology
Contains: Health, agriculture, management, public relations, buildings.
What it says about you: You are creative and inspired to make the world a better place. You can work hard on something when it catches your interest. Your friends have unique interests in common with you.
Second Result:
185 Aristotelian philosophy
Class: 100 Philosophy & Psychology
Contains: Books on metaphysics, logic, ethics and philosophy.
What it says about you: You're a careful thinker, but your life can be complicated and hard for others to understand at times. You try to explain things and strive to express yourself.
Third Result:
013 [Unassigned]
Class: 000 Computer Science, Information & General Works
Contains: Encyclopedias, magazines, journals and books with quotations.
What it says about you: You are very informative and up to date. You're working on living in the here and now, not the past. You go through a lot of changes. When you make a decision you can be very sure of yourself, maybe even stubborn, but your friends appreciate your honesty and resolve.
Can someone smarter than me explain to me how it is that my given name and birthdate fated me to be what I am?
