We spent the morning taking personality tests–the main one being the 16 personalities test that we focused on most. It was very interesting how each of us (except Jerry and Christian) had a different personality result but with some overlap. We each examined how our differences in problemsolving and analytical thinking would help strenghten us in the escape room for later, and how to best help each other succeed. I was the “turbulant mediator” personality, and it was especially interesting how half of our group was in the “diplomat” category (there are four categories with four personalities in each), but each a different one of the four personalities. Then, we went on to the escape room, which I definitely didn’t expect to be an actual tower. We took last minute pictures before going in and being locked in a speakeasy-themed room with an hour to escape. It was through our communication and different talents we each brought to the group (and a few hints from the man working there) that we were able to succeed with over 26 minutes left! The experience was great not only for the fun and collaborative bonding but the thoughtfulness and understanding I now know about my friends and some of their personality that will help me best upport them further on.
