| What Stick Means |
 You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know. You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do. You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily. You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind. A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable. You are a seeker of knowledge, and you have learned many things in your life. You are also a keeper of knowledge - meaning you don't spill secrets or spread gossip. People sometimes think you're snobby or aloof, but you're just too deep in thought to pay attention to them. |
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
(because for me, Christmas is on the 24th...haha!)

36. Do you have a crush on someone?

WANTS
| 1. Patterned Hoodie - I'm cold. A LOT. So I need a hoodie, but I WANT it more, so it's under this list instead. I usually go for basic, solid styles, but this time I'm looking for something patterned just 'cause it's cute. A friend said it would look like I'm wearing pj's, but oh well. Pj's are comfy anyway. hee. |  |
 |
2. Ray-Ban wayfarers - Tom Cruise wore it in Risky Business. Audrey Hepburn wore it in Breakfast at Tiffany's. I don't care if people are saying it's a fad - I think they're a classic. love love LOVE wayfarers! Now, if I can only afford one. |
3. dual-banded hairband - I'm giving in to this trend...yeah, yeah, I'm selling out. But I think they look great. Hopefully I'll find something that won't induce migraines.
| 4. Vans/Reds - actually, sneakers will do. This is kinda like the hoodie, because I need sneakers, too. Rubber shoes are just way too chunky for skinny jeans and capris. On the other hand, flats/mary janes/peep-toes are too fancy for the tragic concrete-mud-slush concoction that is the Ateneo campus grounds. But to be specific, I want Vans or Red by Ecko. Just 'cause they're cute. :)) |  |
| 5. Balenciaga giant - I'm really into humongous tote bags right now because they'r both pretty and functional. Having just one (my boho from Leaveland is buh-roken! sniff.) |
6. Skinny jeans - I only have one pair! Must stock up. :))
| 7. OkaB by Bass - First saw this in Podium after a really long day of WALKING. They look REALLY comfy. |
|
NEEDS
6. Tape recorder - one of the reasons why I've stopped writing is the fact that I have no functional tape recorder. I pretty much broke all of the ones we have at home, and I just don't have the heart to tell my dad to buy me a new one... pathetic, I know.
7. External HD - this one's for my Arnold. He's congested with Season 1 and 2 of Heroes plus several of Veronica Mars' season 3...He needs to let go to be able to breathe (and by breathe, I mean work FASTER) again.
8. Mouse - for Arnold, again. Kuya's oily hands sullies the touch pad. I mean, seriously. If you find your laptop open to a um...questionable website, then you move to close it through the touch pad and then you suddenly feel oil through your unknowing fingers? Not such a good feeling.
Yep. that's it, so far. Quite short, really... I'll probably add more someday.
... sounds like an emo rock band's album.
Hail to you who is Melancholy Phlegmatic
The stability and foresight to stay straight on the course.
The eye for detail while others do shoddy work.
The ability to analyze and arrive at the proper solution.
The aim to finish what you start.
The patience to put up with provokers.
The ability to listen, while others have their say.
The gift of mediation, uniting opposing forces.
The purpose of peace at almost any price.
The will to live in such a way that even your enemies can't find anything bad to say about you.
The talent to create a masterpiece where nothing existed before.
The pledge "if it is worth doing, it's worth doing right."
You
are a serious, soft spoken introvert who others would label
pessimistic, but you correctly understand that you are realistic. When
others are in a frenzy, you are calm. You stand back, analyze the
situation, find the problem create a solution. You are slow to act, but
when you do it is well thought out and steadily implemented. You don't
leap into things you won't finish and you do not require a shower of
compliments to keep going like Sanguines do.
Here are two adjective barages for the positives of Melancholies & Phlegmatics:
As a Phlegmatic your are peacefully awesome:
You
are easy going, easy to get along with, relaxed, consistent, patient,
well-balanced, calm, cool, collected, a good listener, quiet but witty,
sympathetic, kind, you keep your emotions hidden, you are happily
reconciled to life, and you are an all purpose person. At work you are
competent, steady, peaceful, agreeable, you avoid conflict, mediate
problems, lead by consensus, and you don't get that pressured. As a
friend you are pleasant, enjoyable, compassionate, concerned,
inoffensive, a good listener with a dry sense of humor.
As a Melancholy you are thoughtfully kick ass:
You
are deep, analytical, insightful, serious, purposeful, genius prone,
talented, creative, possibly artistc, musical, poetic or philisophical.
You are considerate, conscientious, self-sacrificing, and sensitive to
others. In the workplace you set high standards, pick up after others,
are schedule oriented, organized, detail concious, persistent, and
thorough. You like charts and graphs. You see the problems and find
creative solutions. As a friend, you make friend's cautiously, are
content to stay in the background, avoid causing attention, are
faithful and devoted, deeply concerned for others, will listen to
complaints, and you can solve people's problems.
At best your
personality works thusly. Your easy going Phlegmatic nature protects
you from being too sensitive or getting depressed, and your Melancholly
side inspires you towards perfection, motivating you and preventing you
from never doing anything.
Now the harsh part. Here are two more adjective barages about your weaknesses. Don't despair, we love you anyways!:
As a melancholy:
You
remember negatives, hold on to hurt, sulk, get moody or depressed or
guilty, you are too introspective, self-centered, with a low
self-image, you feel persecuted and you mind is off in another world.
In the workplace you may be too meticulous, or a martyr. You are not
people oriented, choose dificult work, are hesitant to start, spending
too much time on planning, prefering analysis to work, and you are hard
to please with your high high standards. You secretly have a deep need
for approval. As a friend you live through others, are critical,
withdrawn, hold back affection, don't accept compliments, you are
unforgiving, suspicious, and you dislike those in opposition towards
whom you are antagonistic and even revengeful.
As a Phlegmatic this is you at your worst:
You
are unenthusiastic, fearful, worried, indecisive, selfish, shy,
reticent, self-righteous, too compromising and you avoid
responsibility. At work you are not goal oriented, lacking in
self-motivation, hard to get moving, resentful of being pushed, lazy,
careless, discouraging & you have a quiet will of iron. As a friend
you dampen enthusiasm, stay uninvolved, are indifferent, unexciting,
judgemental, sarcastic, teasing & you resist change.
And
yet you are still wonderful. There is no blame here. This is just how
the Melancholly and Phlegmatic tend to be. This analysis is just a tool
to help you understand yourself better so you can have more power to
get what you want. Your negatives are difficult, but your strengths are
formidable, you are the most thoughful of the 4 possible temperment
combinations. You probably get along well with extroverted care free
Sanguine Cholerics because you balance them. You can hear their bossy
ideas of what everyone should do and help them see their flaws and make
their ideas work. You have excellent follow through, and are a stable
friend to those you love.
The author of this test would like to
acknowledge that Melancholy Phlegmatics are my personal favorite type
of person to be around. They are humble and steadfast. I find I can
bring them into nearly any situation and they do fine. Praise be to you
from me I say!
Curious about the 4 temperment types?
here are links to the 4 basic results you can get.
Phlegmatic
Choleric
Melancholy
Sanguine
