question: what is one thing that you’ve always wanted?

Filed under: Barflies, Blog Things — missyling @ 11:50 pm

this was a question posed to me by the rational neurotic.

there was no hesitation, no delays - i knew the answer to that question immediately.

i’ve expressed that particular desire occassionally, only to be met with responses like….

“no lah, you’re not cut out for it…just wait for other people to do it for you.”

“really, oh no! we’re all in trouble!”

“aiya, you say only. i’ll wait for that day…”

such encouraging friends i have huh.

still have no clue as to what is it?

i’ve always wanted to learn driving since i was 14 but have never, ever taken driving lessons before. in the past, the cost of driving lessons deterred me. now, the lack of time is deterring me.

maybe i don’t want it badly enough yet.

some of my friends are really quite against the idea due to my bad sense of direction…they think that the time i’ll spend getting lost will be far more compared to the time that i would have saved by driving instead of taking public transport.

maybe they’re right.

but that won’t stop me!

one day…i’ll get my driving license. one day.

Blog Things - What’s your personality type?

Filed under: Blog Things — missyling @ 2:41 pm

You Are An INTP

The Thinker

You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can.
Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge.
Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat.
A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it.
In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But not an easy person to stay in love with.
Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative.

At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems.
You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor.

How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded

When other people don’t get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic

What’s your symbol Meme

Filed under: Blog Things — missyling @ 4:20 pm

Got tagged most unexpectedly by DK to do this!

From what I interpreted, I’m supposed to find a particular symbol that represents me best. After thinking upon this for abit, I think this might be it:

water

Yes, water.

Why?

  • Because water can take so many forms - solid, liquid and gaseous. Isn’t this a perfect representation of our many different personality aspects?
  • Because water is one of the most understated basic element that life needs and that is what I hope to achieve - to be able to make a significant difference to anyone or anything while being in an inconspicuous role.
  • Because I’m a Piscean - which is a water sign!

I hope I did this correctly, heh.

You are The Empress

Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents,
beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home
decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
