    I am an Engineer.

    To the Pessimist, glass is half empty
    To the Optimist, the glass is half full
    To the Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

    Optimistic, but Realist! I am not someone to look through rose colored glasses at a crappy situation...I am real about it, but always optimistic it will get better.

    I'm a natural pessimist who has been forced into the optimist role over the pas 6 or so years. Totally sucks. :p

    I am a realist, take everything as it comes and move on. Years of being an optimist in my situation turns you into a realist.

    I used to be the most optimistic person in the world, cheerful and happy all the frigging time, then **** happened got depression... so I've been a pessimist with a side of a dreamer for quite a few months, now I am trying to recover my old self but am leaning more to the realist side as I don't want to feel depressed again if my expectation fly too high and get crushed.

    Optimist & idealist. There's a reason for everything that happens & something good will come out of it, no matter how much pain is endured.

    It depends on my mood and the situation. But generally I'm a pessimitic realist.

    Majority of the time I'm an Optimist, always happy go lucky. When it comes to alcohol though, I'm a pessimistic, glass half full (read empty) kinda gal eg.: "oh ffs.. it was full the last time I looked, WHO drank it???"

    I'm annoyingly optimistic, my husband however; is perpetually pessimistic. So where I see a problem that could easily be worked out. He sees the end of days.
  • Optimist. Went pessimist for a while, but it felt unnatural and not as fun. Back to optimism, but not with my head in the clouds this round.

    A realist, I see a situation as it is and I plan from that, not from what would be convenient to believe.
