My Brain Usage Profile (from evon & tukie)
Auditory : 47%
Visual : 52%
Left : 76%
Right : 23%
chilli, you are somewhat left-hemisphere dominant with a balanced preference for auditory and visual inputs. Because of your "centrist" tendencies, the distinctions between various types of brain usage are somewhat blurred.
Your tendency to be organized and logical and attend to details is reasonably well-established which should afford you success regardless of your chosen field of endeavor, unless it requires total spontaneity and ability to improvise, your weaker traits. However, you are far from rigid or overcontrolled. You possess a degree of individuality, perceptiveness, and trust in your intuition to function at much more sophisticated levels than most.
Having given sufficient attention to detail, you can readily perceive the larger aspects and implications of a situation or of learning. You are functional and practical, but can blend abstraction and theory into your framework readily.
The equivalence of your auditory and visual learning orientation gives you two equally effective sensory input systems, each with distinctive features. You can process both unidimensionally and multidimen- sionally with equal facility. When needed, you sequence material while at other times you "intake it all" and store it for processing later.
Your natural ability to use your senses is also synthesized in your way of learning. You can be reflective in your approach, absorbing material in a non-aggressive manner, and at other times voracious in seeking out stimulation and experience.
Overall you tend to be somewhat more critical of yourself than is necessary and avoid enjoying life too much because of a sense of duty. You feel somewhat constrained and tend to sometimes restrict your expressiveness. In any given situation, you will opt for the rational, and learning of almost any type should be easy for you. You might need certain ideas explained to you in order to fit them into your scheme of things, but you're at least open to that!

Down With Love


Caught this show on tue. Pretty retro and crappy but entertaining enough. Ewan looks quite suave and charming in this movie hee.

Robert Miles - One and One
The sky isn't always blue
The sun doesn't always shine
It's alright to fall apart sometimes, mmm
I am not always you
And you are not always mine
It's alright to fall apart sometimes
After all is said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
The heart isn't always true
And I am not always fine
We all have an angry heart sometimes
Look how far we have come
One and one still is
One moon (one moon)
One star (one star)
I love the one we are
One thread (one thread)
One line (one line)
Let's stand still in time
One moon (one moon)
One star (one star)
I love the one we are
One thread (one thread)
One line (one line)
That runs through our lives
Look how far we have come
One and one still is one ah
Ooh

loved the vocals of Maria Nayler in this song..

Fren
Have become close with a fren of mine only recently this year despite knowing him since jc. At first, it started with mi (being a pro counsellor) listening and advising him with all his problems. Now, it sort of become the other way round with mi bugging him with my problems. We've become each other's counsellors now hee. Think he's getting pretty good at counselling now (from my guidance). Managed to cheer me up yesterday heh.

Mood: Down :(
Was feeling down again jus now for apparently no reasons. Well, actually it's always the same reasons. Sian. Think i should really keep myself occupied. And should really get started on my HYP. And stop indulging myself in sad songs. Ok, no more Roxette again.
Somehow a fren was able to sense my mood and we sort of tok a bit. Think mabbe one giveaway sign of my down mood is when i start introducing people sad songs to download. Heh, actually wanted to tell him the reason i'm feeling down, but din. I think i'm sinking deeper liao. Shit. Should get out of this mess soon.

Birthday
Worked on my bdae! End up too tired to celebrate much for my bdae. Had dinner at kuali with my st john frens. Love the durian ice cream there! Cosy place too. Shall go back and try the curry (and of cos the ice cream) next time hee.

Nagging
Dunno y up till now my mum n sis would still nag at me whenever i go out late or return home late at night. I'm already 22!
I tot they should get used to my late night habits (going out late, returning home late, sleeping late, supper, mahjong) by now. Although I noe they nag for my own good, it gets on my nerves sometimes. The funny thing is that they dun nag so much when I did that in secondary n JC. Duh.

I Don't Want To Get Hurt

In everything I see you appear with me, how come? How come?
And everything I do involves you too. We are like one.
In my life there has been so many changes
and I don't want to be left out in the rain

I don't want to get hurt, I've done my time.
All I want from you is to tell the truth.
I don't want to get hurt no more this time.
I don't want to go blind and find it's falling apart all the time

In the middle of a dream you are there for me, your face, your lips.
But there's no way you can tell cos I hide it really well, so well.
In my life there has been loving and lying
and I don't need another reason to cry

I don't want to get hurt...
I don't want to go blind and find I'm falling apart one more time.

Mood: Happy ('',)

LXG

Caught the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Shan't say it's a good show, but since i watched it free (due to 2 kind souls who gave mi n my fren free tix at the very last min), it's not too bad either.
The plot (if there is) is basically crappy. The movie dun flow too well.. but the action n gadgets save the movie.
I'm however interested to read/recall again the individual stories of the different characters: Captain Nemo and his stylo Nautilus (20,000 Leagues Under The Sea by Jules Verne), Dorian Gray (The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde), Allan Quartermain, Skinner the Invisible Man, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Mina Harker.
Something to keep mi occupied for this slack sem.

Sports
Feeling hyper after swimming today. Actually lazy to pull myself out of bed to go at first, but i'm glad i went in the end. Had been lazing and nuaing so much this week. Now i realise that sports really do wonders. Make you perk up and energetic.

Mars
MARK AUGUST 27th ON YOUR CALENDAR
MARS WILL APPEAR AS BIG AS THE MOON!
FIRST TIME IN AT LEAST 5,000 YEARS!

Never again in your lifetime will the Red Planet be so spectacular!
This month and next, Earth is catching up with Mars, an encounter that will culminate in the closest approach between the two planets in recorded history.

The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287. Due to the way Jupiter's gravity tugs on Mars and perturbs its orbit, astronomers can only be certain that Mars has not come this close to Earth in the last 5,000 years but it may be as long as 60,000 years.

On August 27, Mars will come within 34,649,589 miles and will be (next to the moon) the brightest object in the night sky. It will attain a magnitude of - 2.9 and will appear 25.11 arc seconds wide. At a modest 75-power magnification Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye.

Share with your friends, children and grandchildren.
No one alive today will ever see this again!

Complex
some fren comment that i am a complex person.
am i? i wonder.

Sway
playing on winamp: bic runga - sway

Don't stray, don't ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
Sometimes, when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time
Don't let me drown, let me down
I say it's all because of you
And here I go, losing my control
I'm practising your name so I can say it to your face
It doesn't seem right, to look you in the eye
Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time to tell you why
I say it's infintely true

love the melody and lyrics. american pie soundtrack. din catch the show though.

slack day.
played with tarot cards. seemed to be pretty accurate. scary.

Milk and toast and honey make it sunny on a rainy Saturday, he-he-hey
Milk and toast, some coffee take the stuffiness out of days you hate, you really hate
Slow morning news pass me by
I try not to analyze but didn't he blow my mind this time
Didn't he blow my mind?

(Here he comes)
To bring a little lovin', honey
To take away the hurt inside
Is everything that matters to me
Is everything I want in life

Milk and toast and honey
Ain't it funny how things sometimes look so clear and feel so near
The dreams I dream, my favourite wishful thinkin'
Oh, he's bookmarked everywhere, everywhere
True love might fall from the sky
You never know what to find but didn't he blow my mind this time
Didn't he blow my mind?

(Here he comes)
To bring a little lovin', honey
To take away the pain inside
Is everything that matters to me
Is everything I want from life

Oh lay a little lovin', honey
To feel you're gettin' close to me
Is everything that matters to me
Is everywhere I wanna be
