Time busters

Get to know yourself better test
from Amanda's blog

Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.


Yes I had nothing better to do.

I have only just watched Forrest Gump last Saturday

Yes truly shocking. And yes I went through the gasps, the looks and the chuckles at the fact that I have only just watched the movie less than a week ago.

Well why watch it now while all this while I was ignorant enough to well, ignore the movie?

After a few years in high school listening to a dear friend quoting "Life is like a box of chocolate" and how it was a great movie and how everyone has watched it. I never did actually tried to watch it. In fact I thought she was talking about a totally different movie but only realize a nod to late that we were actually talking about two different movies. I did not tell anyone. Well there was never a need to.

Then I entered a university. My lovely English lecturer was explaining something. She mentioned Forrest Gump and showed her point through the movie. EVERYONE NODDED WITH AGREEMENT. I sat there bewildered. Am I the only one in the whole world who has yet to watch the movie? I stayed silent.

I think to myself, maybe I should watch this movie. Hell go download it. Where I wonder? I wasn't into downloading songs of Limewire or Ares at the time after the computer at home got rebooted twice. So I think nevermind then. I'll think if something.

Early semester two. I finally can access the intranet at the university! Yea! Okay what shall I download first? Ahh how about Forrest Gump? And so I did. Though I never did touch it or even thought about it again after that.

Fast forward to about two weeks ago. Read the news. "Victoria Beckham excited to see Forrest Gump". Or something like that. Apparently she met Tom Hanks. Pause. Hell. Am I the only person who has yet to watch the movie??? I mean even my dad and Victoria Beckham have watched it.

Thus the following week I made the historical move to watch this acclaimed movie on my laptop whilst other people are going ga-ga over the gore fest graphic epic with men clad in underwear fighting for their honor.

And hell that was two hours well spent.

I say it is one of the most beautiful movie I've seen in my entire life.

Tom Hanks that was the best I've seen from you!


Though you suck as Robert Langdon! But I don't really blame you for it, its whoever that picked you should be blamed!

Playing truant

I do not get the whole point of asking people to show up every week just to make them listen to stories with "morals" and/or the never ending black-and-white list of rights and wrongs. Silent nods, happy nods or inquiries for self-betterment are acceptable. But to question or disagree would be an abomination.


To play truant or to play with the fire? Play truant definitely.

Today

marks my 1st ever motorcycle ride.

Memories of the wind blowing against my hair with my hand permanently gripping the handle behind and the countless utterance of 'ohmyfuckinggod' every time there was a little bumper or corner shall forever be with me.

A rainbow made of ethnic hues

Today's article in New Straits Times. Interesting.

A funny (but completely valid) quote from it:

And what, in the name of all that’s holy, did my race or religion have to do with the purchase of a DVD player?

Yea it might be a little long...but don't be lazy people!

Waiting

for a letter to arrive in the mailbox.

Why oh why is it taking such a long time?

Help

Is there such a phrase as testicular fluids?

I wanted to list down the bodily fluids that may transmit HIV through direct contact but the source listed semen and preseminal liquids separately. Me being particular thought hey that's silly! because minus the teeny differences, aren't they the same thing? Can't I just put testicular fluids like vaginal fluids (which was used by the author of the source)? It's bugging me that I've never seen anyone use that phrase before. I certainly do not want to look like an idiot but goodness the phrase just fits!



Oh ya, I'm doing a research assignment on HIV/AIDS awareness

Technological worries

My thumbdrive has fallen victim to viruses twice in less than a month. Both incidents I suspect came from the same source - the university's library. Just because I print my assignments there. As a result, all (well almost all) are gone. Literally. Not misplaced, not stolen, but simply gone. Thankgoodness this didn't happen when I was doing my university applications.

My family's computer at home on the hand has started to emit a rather foul smell of burning plastic. Though this is the second time it happened in the computer's lifetime, all my beautiful songs/pictures and not to mention my Sims2 memories are in there! Bad bad bad. Maybe it had to do with the thunderstorms that happened the day before...

And finally, my laptop has suddenly become excruciatingly slow. With the thumbdrive and computer at home going haywire...I feel twitchy about the wellbeing of my saved assignments.
Maybe it had to do with me not realizing my lappie was on sleep mode for more than 30 hours...


Comments about the apparent brand of my laptop and my anti virus software are not welcomed =P

7. There are very few people I can share my interests with. Kinda sad.
8. I love checking the dictionary to see what a word really means and sometimes I compare the British and American slang (there's audio) when I'm bored...really only when I'm bored...
