What I’ve been up to…

I haven’t really blogged since returning from my asia trip. There are a bunch of reasons behind this, though there isn’t one super duper obvious reason.

  • i’ve been busy with my life, see photos (remember to login to see personal pictures, my friends): here, here, here, here, and here.
  • about this blog:
    • i had a new theme design in my head before travelling to asia, but it got lost in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, haha
    • not sure if the current blog/template/category design would work for what i ultimately want
    • love how tumblr works (see my tumblr blog) but would like an installable version so i could tweak things
    • found gelato CMS last week but the system doesn’t work exactly the way i want
  • and i got sucked into facebook and other web2.0 apps.

Someone

While I am shuffling in iTunes, the song “Someone” streamed through my ears. I used to like the song, I think I still like it! Especially this part of the lyrics:

I would wanna be… Someone who
Sees like a child
Gives like a saint
Feels like an angel
Never mind the broken wings and
Speaks like a picture
Cries like the rain
Shines like the star
As long as the fire remains

You Are An ISTJ


You Are An ISTJ

The Duty Fulfiller
You are responsible, reliable, and hardworking – you get the job done.

You prefer productive hobbies, like woodworking or knittings.

Quiet and serious, you are well prepared for whatever life hands you.

Conservative and down-to-earth, you hardly ever do anything crazy.

You would make a great business executive, accountant, or lawyer.

What’s Your Personality Type?

I’m not a business executive, accountant, or lawyer though.

Google Maps gave me a good laugh

I am sitting here after my shower, kinda checking my email, kinda browsing thru’ my RSS feeds, and kinda telling myself I should go to sleep as it’s almost 3am but my brain just doesn’t seem to be ready to relax.

Oh well, whatever…

So I saw this interesting link from reddit for “Google Map Directions from California to Stockholm“. I looked at it and wondered to myself: hmm… interesting, how would google direct you to cross the Atlantic Ocean?! And I scrolled and scrolled, down to step 33, wow, “Swim across the Atlantic Ocean (3462 mi)”. This is just awesome… I giggled to myself.

Thanks Google, you really did give me a good laugh. And I am heading to bed now.

Another shot of the Myers-Briggs Personality Type Test

After the long discussion with TingTing, I start to wonder more and more about the way I approach problems, or basically, how I think.

So I did the Myers-Briggs Personality Type test once more, I already did it once couple months ago… interestingly, this time I am a different “type”. I am guessing TingTing might have just helped me understand myself a little more because this time I actually gave some of the questions a second thought. I am not sure if it’s really more accurate, but let’s just keep this on file.

This time, according to this test, I am an INTJ:

  • moderately expressed introvert (42%)
  • moderately expressed intuitive personality (25%)
  • distinctively expressed thinking personality (62%)
  • very expressed judging personality (78%)

stupid prank call at 6:50am on Monday!

maybe it wasn’t a prank call, the caller was looking for someone called Anita, hm.. whoever that was, not that it really mattered. but caller id is such a weak system, it’s not hard to spoof the caller information, and anyone who sets up their own sip phone can input their own caller info…

Coming to a sad realization

just leave me alone

I’ve been wondering how I manage to process all the information. And well, there are times when everything seem to work out, and I seem to take it no problem… and then there are just times when I suddenly come to realize that things aren’t the way it appears to be.

And yeah, it’s not that simple and easy.

Edit: um… “sad realization”… maybe I was influenced by this ad. But I swear, it’s nothing that funny or serious.

New home, new design

I have finally spend my time to migrate this blog to sonson.org… and of course play with the theme and design a little. It’s always fun to do some web design and mess with the code – that is, if I have the right mood for it ;-)

Anyhow, there are still things I wanna change on this blog. And hopefully it will slowly come together!

Deeper understanding

According to my horoscope, maybe I shouldn’t have spent too much time thinking to myself…

This quality of time will help you to develop a deeper understanding of those psychological areas that are connected with the experience of pain, suffering and rejection. This influence is especially well suited to so deepening the understanding of these interrelations that the first inklings of how to carry out a healing can be perceived. During this phase it is important to talk to other people who are interested in this theme. This time is well suited to penetrating the complicated connections and dependencies between human behavior, the psyche and early injuries – to differentiate between cause and effect -, whether for yourself or for someone who has confided in you.
