Is There a difference between Inteligence and Wisdom?

I really have to tell you this. Intelligence doesn't mean knowing stuff, 'cause your IQ is something that's decided the moment you're born. I only know this 'cause my shrink told me so, I'm not knowledge girl.
So I had to do this IQ test and I did well, it said I have extremely high intelligence, which is quite weird since I was an average student and stuff.
So learning is really not my schtick and God knows I'm not a teensy weensy wise at all. I only have a logical thinking, I guess. Anyway, intelligence doesn't mean that you know, like, every Dickens novel by heart. It means you understand.

i thought wisdom was knowledge earned through life experiences and observations, where as intelligence is absorbed knowledged

Intelligence is a measurement of what one knows, whereas Intelligence Quotient or I.Q. is a measurement of how one thinks, e.g. one can have an average I.Q. and be highly intelligent, one can have an exceptional I.Q. and be of average intelligence, and so on.

Wisdom is the ability, developed through experience, insight and reflection, to discern truth and exercise good judgment.

Intelligence is a property of mind that encompasses many related mental abilities, such as the capacities to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend ideas and language, and learn.

Yes there is a difference.
wisdom is the proper application of knowledge.
