A little bit Austen

I love Jane Austen. I do. I once spent a summer reading nothing but her works. And, yes, it's super girly and, yes, she didn't ever marry so she's not really much of a role model in that sense... but still. Who else could write something that would make me watch a 6 hour movie?



And now we can all take a quiz to see which Austen heroine we are.

I am Emma Woodhouse!

Who are you?

I am Elizabeth Bennet. Here's what the Quiz site has to say about it -- so just remember it's THEM, not me, remarking on how tremendously attractive I am! (and how picky.) :)

You are Elizabeth Bennet of Pride & Prejudice! You are intelligent, witty, and tremendously attractive. You have a good head on your shoulders, and oftentimes find yourself the lone beacon of reason in a sea of ridiculousness. You take great pleasure in many things. You are proficient in nearly all of them, though you will never own it. Lest you seem too perfect, you have a tendency toward prejudgement that serves you very ill indeed

OOOH, totally forgot to post mine:

You are Emma Woodhouse of Emma! You like being the queen of your social circle (small and provincial as it may be), and feel it's your duty to help those less influential than you. You often meddle in the affairs of others, though you do it with a pure heart. You are often deluded in your flights of fancy, but your good intentions and creative spirit make you someone anyone could like.

I'm also Elizabeth Bennet. Hooray!

I can completely see you as Emma -- too cute!

This is what I got: You are Marianne Dashwood of Sense & Sensibility! You are impulsive, romantic, impatient, and perhaps a bit too brutally honest. You enjoy romantic poetry (only in lyric form) and novels, and play the pianoforte beautifully (okay, that's not true). To boot, your singing voice is captivating. You feel deeply, and love passionately.

Elinor Dashwood, Sense and Sensibility. " You are Elinor Dashwood of Sense & Sensibility! You are practical, circumspect, and discreet. Though you are tremendously sensible and allow your head to rule, you have a deep, emotional side that few people often see."
Hm. I think I must have changed a lot in the past few years.
