Personality Patterns


I found this quiz called
Personality Patterns

take the quiz here:

And here are my results! My Top 10 Personality Traits.


AESTHETIC
You appreciate art, beauty, and design; you know that they are not superficial but absolutely crucial to living the good life. You have good taste, and you're proud of it. Those with a high score on the "aesthetic" trait are often employed in literary or artistic professions, enjoy domestic activities — doing things around the house — and are enthusiastic about the arts, reading, and travel.
You don't think it's pretentious to be moved by art and beauty. You're not one of those who believe it doesn't matter what something looks like as long as it does its job.
CALM 
You rarely become irritated, generally accept people as they are, take things as they come, and feel relaxed in most situations. 
You do not let a minor annoyance escalate to a confrontation. You don't regularly snap at those around you or fly off the handle with little provocation.
ORIGINAL 
You are constantly coming up with new ideas. For you, the world as it exists is just a jumping-off place; what's going on inside your mind is often more interesting than what's going on outside. 
You don't feel that the road to success is to be a realist and stick to the program; you never stop yourself from coming up with new ideas or telling the world what you're thinking about.
PRUDENT 
You look before you leap, think before you act, consider what you're about to say before you open your mouth to speak; that's why you rarely have to eat your words.
You usually don't get excited easily or blurt out the first thing that comes to mind without considering the consequences.
UNFLAPPABLE 
You are not a slave to your emotions. It takes a lot to upset or unnerve you. That's why you're a good person to have around in a crisis.
You don't let it all hang out, which means that those around you often don't know the pressures you're under or what you're going through. You're not the kind of person people run from in a crisis.
 
OPTIMISTIC
You are a "glass half-full" kind of person, always on the lookout for the silver lining. Your happiness is contagious, which is why others like to be around you.
You do not feel that the world is an intrinsically depressing place; you are not the kind of "realist" who thinks that only fools find joy in life.
 
STEADY
You are a reasonable kind of person; no one would describe you as a loose cannon. Even when everyone around you is losing it, you can be counted on to keep your cool and offer calm guidance.
You do not regularly get bowled over by your emotions, nor do you make a point of showing everyone exactly what you're feeling.
 
INNOVATIVE
You come up with a lot of ideas; if one doesn't work out, there's always another waiting in the wings. You often have interesting solutions to difficult problems. You're practically a one-person brainstorming session.
You are less interested changing the world than in dealing with things as they are. Unlike those who spend all their time trying to solve problems, you prefer to zero in on things that work and stick with them.
 
CREATIVE
You are good at solving problems, coming up with original ideas, and seeing connections between things, connections that most other people miss. People with a high score on the "creative" trait often are employed in such fields as finance and scientific research, and enjoy avant garde and classical music as well as literary fiction and scholarly non-fiction. 
You do not shun abstractions and concepts in favor of the concrete and tangible.
 
INTELLECTUAL 
You are thoughtful, rational, and comfortable in the world of ideas. People find you interesting to talk to. You're the living embodiment of the saying "You learn something new every day." In general, those with a high score on the "intellectual" trait are employed in such fields as teaching and research, and are enthusiastic about reading, foreign films, and classical music. 
You do not avoid abstract conversation, experimenting with new ideas, or studying new things. It bores you to stick to the straight and narrow of what you already know.

Movie: Paradise Kiss


Paradise Kiss

Starring:
Keiko Kitagawa as Yukari 'Caroline' Hayasaka
Osamu Mukai as Jouji 'George' Koizumi
Yusuke Yamamoto as Hiroyuki Tokumori
Shunji Igarashi as Isabella
Kento Kaku as Arashi Nagase
Aya Omasa as Miwako Sakurada


This movie is the "live action" of the manga-based anime, Paradise Kiss by Ai Yazawa.
It is a story about a girl who spent all of her life following what her parents want her to do -study, study, and study. 
Afraid of rejection, she strives to have good grades that her parents demands.
It only changed when she met this group of fashion designers who wants her to be their model for their brand, Paradise Kiss. 
Only then wherein she found acceptance, friendship, love, and her dream to be a model.
And only then was she able to walk, not just on the runway, but also on her own feet.


REASONS WHY I LIKE IT:

  • The Cast - They portrayed their roles well. They were perfect! Keiko is very pretty and... the guys!! I could just spazz all day, if would have to choose between Osamu and Kento, I would loose my mind.
  • The Style - I love fashion. I love Japanese fashion. Paradise Kiss is all about fashion. Love it! -especially that last dress.
  • The Story - and it's moral. The movie is inspiring especially to those who are deciding for their future.

Typhoon Sendong


This day, I was thinking all day.. 
Where to find the money to spend for my upcoming Christmas parties..
Where to find money to pamper myself before going to Singapore..

I saw these kinds pictures this day. 
Pictures of suffering, death, and sadness.
At first, I just ignored it.
Maybe I was in denial of Typhoon Sendong destroying lives of many people.
But my conscience is bothering me.

It pains me that I was thinking all day of spending money for myself, well in fact, 
I even don't have the money to donate.
I don't know if Typhoon Sendong is over, but I'm still scared of it.

Please help me pray. 
For those who lost their loved ones, their homes, their hope, their Christmas. 
Please pray for their strength to move forward, 
courage to stay strong and face all the trials, 
and hope for the future.

This day, I realized how lucky I am. To be safe, and to be with my family.

Orange Toes


What can be more appealing than this picture of feet?.. Perfect for a first post!
Can't blame me~ I just love the color of my toenails~ ^_^
Just a little compensation for the upcoming busy week.

  • Tomorrow's gonna be prelim exams. -crossing my fingers-
  • Then after that, I will be 3 Christmas Parties. -and.. I haven't wrapped my gifts yet.. uh-oh-
  • And then it's vacation to Singapore! -have not started packing. tss. but I'm really excited for this one.-
Not that I'm complaining. 
I love being busy! (only if it's not for studying)
It just means I'll never be bored this week!
I just hope I'll get through all the "things-I'm-supposed-to-pay"
because unfortunately, We're supposed to pay for the venue of the parties.
and I'm totally broke!
