Rot, okay, my blog rot again, I was thinking of updating a few days ago. But looks like the sloth in me took over and the whole procrastinating thingy starts all over again. well, at least not just in blogging context, but a little bit on my school work too. Maybe is due to the holiday week. Things kinda get sluggish.

(Warning: A long post ahead!)

But still, I would consider it as a pseudo first order with respect to Holiday, [Holiday]
1 . This is due to the fact that despite been known as Holiday, we are still warmly invited back to school to have some extra lessons. Not to mention, some test. =P On the other side, things are not so bleak, at least now I'll have decent number of hours of sleep. As compared to last few weeks. Practically going bonkers, on week days, wake up at 5.45am, sleep at 2am. As mentioned by some friends, when I go to school, the sky is dark, when I return from school, the sky is also dark. Kinda Sad.. Busy and day by day they just pass like that.

Looking around, guess everyone had their day recently, either they are frustrated, pissed beyond their wildest dream or simply not on mother Earth. Perhaps on Mars. Not too sure I can pull it through for this promo though. But then again, life is full of uncertain up ahead. Guess we got to pull through.

Well, looking on the bright side, we celebrated Siew Keng's birthday in advance. That silly girl, thought she was smart enough, but we're more witty. We gave her a pseudo surprise follow by the main dish, a birthday bash! Or rather a cream mask party / slumber party literally. But I manage to escape clean and neat. =P But unknown to her, the biggest mastermind behind all the tricks were, Cheris and I. The relighting candles and the fake cake. (Sorry Siew Keng! ;P) But the rest were needless to say a Team effort. Fiona also brought some light sticks to add color to the celebration. The scrap book especially, we vomited blood over it. Firstly, she got thousand and one photos to choose from, literally, almost there. Then we began to fill it in, our brain cells, especially, right side ( I think), kept dying at a increasing rate, ( In graph). But in the end we enjoy ourselves! Poor birthday-girl-to-be, (her actual birthday is TML!!) literally bathe in cream! Haha! P.S: The metal cake is, suggested by Cheris, done by me and this cake had given me nothing but pain, by plotting best fit line on my lap. =P But glad that she like the whole thing!

Some result from the online test I had been doing (It was addictive, can't blame me) :

Your result for The Lucid Dreaming Test...

The Master

Conditions met: 58%. Talent: at least 46%. Possible advantages: 50%. Mastery: about 63%


Wow, your do pretty well despise all obstacles. Was a hard piece of work, I presume.


Conditions: Your sleeping habits are average; there's room for improvement, but all in all, it should be no problem. If you did well in the other categories, it will hardly bother you if there is one candle missing here and there, and you certainly won’t miss the potpourris or “Soothing Ocean Sounds Vol. 3”-CD either. Not ideal if you are still learning, though.


Talent: You don’t space out an awful lot, and you aren’t too intuitive, either, maybe just average. That's okay. It’s not required to control your dreams, but it sure makes it a lot more fun. If you give yourself that extra portion of “smelling the roses”, your dreams will get a lot more vivid.


Advantages: You may experience difficulties in taking as well as keeping control. Maybe you should try giving yourself a break from hard work to do something creative, or treat yourself to a relaxing activity of some sort; it will certainly do you good even if you don't aim for Lucid Dreams.


Mastery: Wow, either your natural talent has discovered you while you didn’t notice, or you already worked your way to mastery and you only took this test to see how good you really are! I’m impressed!


But scoring highly here can also mean you are almost there, but not quite. If so, you should try asking yourself 10 times or so per day if you are dreaming, and if you make this a habit, you may continue doing it in your dreams, which can trigger a lucid dream. (Thanks Third Eye for this info! It was taken from this book.) You may soon be the master of your own dreams! Think about it! No more nightmares you can't escape from!

Your result for The Ultra Ultimate Personality Test...

The Scientist

You scored 24 Extroversion, 78 Intuition, 41 Emotional, and 33 Spontaneity!


INTJ


Independent, innovative, logical and driven by the inner world of ideas and possibilities, the INTJ often appears to others as a quietly self-confident (and sometimes stubborn) critic of the status quo, convinced that reality can be altered, the future reshaped. Wherever there is a need for change in systems, programs, concepts or theories, INTJs will be working behind the scenes to reorganize and revise. This type's focused attention to the personal mission may be inspiring or frankly obsessive, depending on the observer's viewpoint or the success of the enterprise. Introspective and somewhat shy, INTJs place their trust in logical analysis and intuition to guide their thoughts and decisions. More feeling types may find them chilly, and more practical types accuse them of being unrealistic, but INTJs take their cues mostly from those they recognize as intelligent. Often attracted to theoretical, analytical and methodological areas of inquiry, INTJs succeed in a wide variety of fields, from ones heavily dependent on mathematics and science to more philosophical, literary or applied disciplines.


Relationships

INTJs believe in constant growth in relationships, and strive for independence for themselves and their mates. They are constantly embarking on "fix-up" projects to improve the overall quality of their lives and relationships. They take their commitments seriously, but are open to redefining their vows, if they see something which may prove to be an improvement over the existing understanding. INTJs are not likely to be "touchy-feely" and overly affirming with their mates or children, and may at times be somewhat insensitive to their emotional needs. However, INTJs are in general extremely capable and intelligent individuals who strive to always be their best, and be moving in a positive direction. If they apply these basic goals to their personal relationships, they likely to enjoy happy and healthy interaction with their families and friends.


Strengths

Not threatened by conflict or criticism

Usually self-confident

Take their relationships and commitments seriously

Generally extremely intelligent and capable

Able to leave a relationship which should be ended, although they may dwell on it in their minds for awhile afterwards

Interested in "optimizing" their relationships

Good listeners
