IQ Tests and Such

Image
I took a Personality Test and an IQ test. See the results below... Kinda true. I had always thought of myself as an Idealist. I don't know about the wealth part, but it does really get to me... when people are not following rules. When I break rules, even when I know it is better to break them than not to, I always have a sinking feeling in my gut. Haha. My conscience must be in my gut then... Now, for the IQ test thing, I got 127. According to the website, this is better then 77% of the people who took this test. Pretty good. Haha. But I do know people who scored so much higher than me in our high school IQ test. :p

11:11

Tweet A few blogs ago, I wrote about my weird affinity to the number 11 and the fact that I always see it on clocks. At the time, I was just mildly amused by it, not thinking that it was really anything at all. But then Stippy left a comment on that blog entry: Stip said... according to one book i've read, people with extraordinary cognitive abilities always catch double digits on their digital clocks without meaning to do so. "extraordinary cognitive abilities" includes abstract intuition (you somehow know that doing something is the best thing, but you can't explain it), premonitions, psychic and third-eye abilities. =) So I looked it up on the internet, and true enough, there were several websites dedicated to 11:11! Akalain mo yun... And here's what they said: These 11:11 Wake-Up Calls on your digital clocks, mobile phones, VCR’s and microwaves are the "trademark" prompts of a group of just 1,111 fun-loving Spirit Guardians, or Angels. Onc...

Stuck

In Tabangao stuck For the weekend. Buck Naked, running amuck In my bedroom. Struck out of Tumble-bug doesn't rhyme with: Pluck a guitar, but, luck! I don't play it. Luck! I don't have one. Stuck, Like a fly on a window. Yuck. -reyjr

Moving On

A few days ago, a friend of mine (Ms. Q) received a message on her Multiply saying that she's ugly and it came from a guy (Mr. A) who used to be a trainee in our school organization but quit because of personal reasons (ehem..). After much discussion on Ms. Q's site how Mr. A is a loser and hypocrite, etc., Mr. A apologized and claimed that his account was hacked into and that he wasn't the one who wrote on Ms. Q's multiply site. End of story. The reason I'm blogging about it is this: Ms. Q sent me an SMS about the alleged message on her site and said, "To think ikaw ang nagpahirap sa kanya, at hindi ako!" In a way, that IS true... and so this got me to thinking, how many people out there would send me a hate message if they could, all those trainees who quit because of me? Off the top of my head, I know only about 4 people ("Hindi ako babalik habang andyan pa si..!!!"), but there could be others. So, I thought, had my strict, perfectionist appro...

Losing Sleep

i was slowly falling into a routine, losing sleep, i'm awake and its fourteen minutes past 2 in the morning. Dreaming while i'm awake, my mind keeps swirling 'round and 'round. Bean's bear on my bedside table, i'm seeing my room from the inside. unmade bed looks comfortable 'nough but the aircon's noisy, that's why its tough to get Silent Nights during Christmastime. set my clock at 6, but wake up at 9. xoxo

Pisay the Movie

Image
I almost got lost on my way to watch Pisay. My friend Julz Oliveros (not related to Maximo) sent me an SMS saying the showing will be at Cinema 4 of The Block, and that The Block would be "in" SM North EDSA. I had, in my head, planned to just park in the open parking in front of SM North even though it was drizzling a bit. It was the only parking area I could remember... When I turned right from North Ave, I was dumbfounded! There's a whole new building where the parking lot used to be! Anyhow, I drove (slowly) around the other cars who seem to be as lost as I was, and finally found the Parking Entrance to the SM Annex. On to the movie then! Pisay is a heartwarming tale of a group of high school students, coming from different backgrounds, but all brilliant, all studying at the Philippine Science High School. What I liked most about the movie was its effective nostalgia. It may be that the movie was set in the 80's (when I was but a wee little baby), but it's them...

Photographic Memory

07/12 - This bird won't budge. It just won't. Then after a few minutes, it pooped then flew away. It must've been too shy to do its business while i was there. Haha! 07/21 - The UP Concert Chorus bulletin board. Haha! Memories. I visited them last Saturday. They were rehearsing some choreography for their upcoming UPBeat Concert. I remember those times when I was the one leading choreography rehearsals, tough but fun. I will be watching on August 11 with my gf and also former UPCC, Liz, and also with a few more UPCC Alumni. 07/25 - (One of) Bryan's send off party(-ies). This one at the Ponte Fino Hotel with the MF Finance Dept. Bryan (who is also one of my housemates and badminton buddies) is the guy I'm pointing at. He's off to the land of the merlion to earn loads of Sing dollars and maybe learn a thing or two about GSAP. See you in December Don Bryan! o7/26 - They say there's a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. I still have to check, but this looks pr...
