Dreams

2005-08-03T08:50:25Z

Well just feel the need to right this down somewhere, but last night i had the most vivid and yet beautiful dream, and i simply can't understand that whole 'we don't dream in colour thing!' because i do, i still have the images in my mind now i managed to retain them before they all drifted away as they usually do.

I was just surprised because a whole group of things came together in my head to make something rather unique. I mean i would never have thought of a cave/building that is only accessible once every 5 years due to a stream being diverted away over nearby fields. And having a big party in the said building that is starting to erode due to the streams normal flow and have very interesting angles and smooth surfaces forming, and drips falling from the ceiling. Anyway it moved on from there into all sorts of tangents. But yeah very funky i want to remember that one....

bwahaha i love it.

Exercise

2005-06-21T08:51:02Z

Okay i started again with exercise yesterday, and i have so far managed to do 2 days of a run/walk in the morning in a row, and my legs feel like someone has driven a steamroller over them!

I have always been a fairly sporty person, but i gained a bit of weight and stoped doing pretty much any exercise except from the odd walk when i got severe depression. And i figure that since i'm better it's time to get back on the horse, so to speak. So sore butt it is. I figure though i don't like running much i's a good way to get fit and it's cheap and you can do it anywhere. That and my dog now loves me ever more than before for going on fast walks.

Yet another quiz

2005-06-11T05:10:31Z

Hand-Raiser
You are 85% Rational, 71% Extroverted, 28% Brutal, and 42% Arrogant.

You are the Hand-Raiser, that annoying kid in class who always had an answer for everything. No doubt, as a child you probably sat in the front of the class, anxiously waving your hand back and forth in the air while your teacher desperately tried to avoid calling on you because you were the ONLY fucking kid that answered her questions. Clearly, the key traits of your personality are your rationality and your extroversion. You are like a little talkative calculator, in other words. You also tend to be rather gentle and less arrogant than most people. So what is your defect, then? Well, you're boring, and when you're not boring, you are just plain annoying with your ultra-logical responses and constant need to talk to others. So keep waving that hand in the air, son. I'm still not calling on you. You are too logical, you talk too much, and your humility and gentleness only makes me hate you more, because they make me feel like I almost SHOULDN'T hate you. But I do. Big time.

To put it less negatively:

1. You are more RATIONAL than intuitive.

2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.

3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.

Compatibility:

Your exact opposite is the Brute.

Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Braggart, the Haughty Intellectual, and the Robot.

If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.

The other personality types:

The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 75% on Rationality

You scored higher than 73% on Extroversion

You scored higher than 24% on Brutality

You scored higher than 43% on Arrogance

Well this weekend has just flown by, with nothing much accomplished. Chated to a few people, watched the First Lions game (rugby), slept. Got a nasty headache thing so spent most of today in bed. Very happy i don't have to work tomorrow and i can spend more time just hanging out. Sometimes i just feel like being lazy.

Work

2005-06-02T07:09:27Z

So i got a job as a temp, today was my first day, and it's actually pretty cool job, i'm the front desk receptionist for a salt production and refining company. There are huge piles of salt just behind the offices. Anyway, not nearly as tired as i thought i would be today. Maybe after a full week i will be a bit exhausted. But i don't have a full five days until the week afer next because this monday is a holiday! Huzzah! It's queens birthday weekend, not that it's actually the queens birthday but hey who cares!

though this does mean that cause i'm temping i won't get a paid monday off :( but oh well....

Bored

2005-05-31T12:03:51Z

I have nothing else to do, so i'm gonna pollute live journal with my bored ramblings. I'm liking that the time stamps are actually my time!

I probably have all sorts of bit's and pieces that i could be doing right now, but i just don't feel like it. So funny to read through all the Worlds Enders entries in my friends section and have Neils blogs scattered through too! like he has secretly joined the pack.

Oh and i got a job for the next few weeks, just temp work, i'm still trying to get a job that is in some way related to my degrees. It will hopefully happen someday. But right now i could use the money - my car has died, i need to buy myself a laptop, i need to renew my passports, i need to save up for bond to move back into a flat up in Auckland and i need to save for my travels next year. Why can't i just win a lottery? oh thats right i would need to actually buy a ticket....

Just what i need another Blog

2005-05-31T10:25:01Z

Hello empty world, i have decided to actually use my livejournal account (before i had just registered to make sure i bagsed my username, and no other evil person got to steal my halucinagenia - like they managed to do on AIM).

This is mainly just so i can be nosey and read everyone else's journals, as i haven't ventured out of the xanga blogs very often before. I feel i am neglecting news from the other side (plus i like alinda's and cd's blogs and i get to read them both easily now).

And i just want to say: the formatting on LJ sucks! *looks round carefully* am i gonna get evicted for saying that? Well Xanga is a hell of a lot easier to use, but i will try my best to make this look pretty.

Oh and i like the mood function! oh and a spell checker......
