am i really that bad!?!@#$%^&*
i took a quiz from a cosmo online mag and ges wat the result is!!!!
You got 16 out of 30!
DEVILISH DIVA. You're so mischievous, you make Madonna look like Goldilocks. "You're an impulsive person who goes after what she wants at that moment and pushes boundaries without thinking there are any restrictions," says Linda Geurkink, Ph.D., a psychologist in Washington, D.C. It doesn't mean that you're terrible and have no conscience; you may have an unrelenting desire for attention and feel the only way to set yourself apart is by going wild and breaking the rules. Or you could be making up for a strict childhood. "You get a high from asserting your freedom and proving that the rules everyone else lives by don't matter to you, but it only lasts a short time," says Geurkink. And while playing hooky from work or ditching your sister's mutt may make you feel like you've gotten away with something, it's bound to backfire and have a snowball effect. Says Paul Gedo, Ph.D., a U.S.-based psychologist: "When the fun wears off, you feel worse because you've hurt other people or your own reputation, so you do another naughty thing to avoid feeling the pain or guilt of what you've done. It's a vicious circle."
To keep from getting caught in the debauchery cycle, step back from the scenario. "If you're contemplating doing something a little wicked, pretend it's a friend who wants to do it instead," says Gedo. "What advice would you give? Taking a more objective viewpoint will help you see that the thrill you get from doing it may not outweigh the consequences."
i guess im dat bad!!
