If a season had to match your personality, which one would it be — and is that the same one you actually enjoy most?

A natural way to answer

I think my personality is most like spring — fairly optimistic and always itching for a fresh start. Interestingly, though, the season I enjoy most is winter, for the cosiness. So there's a slight disconnect between who I am and what I prefer.

Key phrases to use
