Do me and Amanda sound elegant? You should read about her bedsocks! Or did you say elephant? What makes you think Fours are elegant? They are known for wearing scarves and berets, but that's hardly elegant. As for being bookish, you couldn't get much more bookish than me. I have hundreds on every conceivable subject and tons of fiction too. My room is wall to wall bookcases. Till I got this computer, I rarely had my nose out of a book. And if I go out anywhere, I have to take at least three books with me. Most of the people on this board seem to have a strong Five wing, and I do intellectually - like I want to know EVERYTHING and my Five friend Jonathan is the same and couldn't stand it when I pointed out that he never would. I'll be trying to get to sleep at night and suddenly get the urge to learn Sanskrit or read through the night just because I think it would be more aesthetic or something to read a particular novel in one go. I'll even explore mathematical stuff, and that's my worst subject. Fours are always searching and exploring. But elegant? We redefine elegance!
