Check out my 3D ID!

I had fun creating it. So this is who I am. I love fashion. I love performing on stage. The meez is supposed to be dancing but it's only doing that flirty pose. Tsk3. How I wish I could find a baby doll dress exactly like the one in my meez.

Try it!

My First Days in UP

Spending my 1st day in UP wasn't bad after all. I already met new friends and acquaintances. I'm not the shy girl in our block. [kapalmuks] Plus, the upperclassmen were superduper approachable. They even toured us around the campus with their private car. I'm lucky to have a major under the CHK (College of Human Kinetics) because it's one of the smallest colleges; therefore, the students, especially the freshies, are well monitored by the adviser. CHK is dubbed as the mitochondrion of UP Diliman so its students are expected to have very excitable temperament. My brother was the one who chose B Sports Science as my priority course. Gee. I'm not a sporty person. I guess I just have to be open for learning.


THE FRSHIE ORIENTATION PROGRAM

I HAD A BLAST. The emcees were bombarded with humor. Kuya Marvin and Jeff [I hope I got their name PRECISELY.] gave us bellyache all throughout the program. There were a number of breathtaking intermission numbers. The choir astoundingly caused us goosebumps. I was disappointed in the performance of the Broad Ass. Their dance was mediocre because of poor synchronization. Sorry to say that. I only enjoyed the intrinsic beatbox of Kuya Andrew. Yeah! That was so cool. The comedy group[I forgot the name] was indeed composed of excellent stage performers. "Confetti! Fiesta!" *To those who attended the FOP, I'm sure a part of you laughed upon reading those words. The best presentors were the UP Pep Squad. They taught us cheers and some dance steps. I was so eager to learn them that people at the back were staring at me. Hehe. I really didn't care. That's the spirit. I'm interested in joining the squad. They're looking for drummers, lifters, gymnasts and dancers. I was just too shy to approach any of them.

U - Na - I - Ba - E - Ra - Sa - I - Da - A - Da Na - Ga Pa - I - La - I - Pa - I - Na - A - Sa!!!!

The FOP contributed a lot in boosting my confidence as an UPCAT PASSER. At first, it was nothing to me because UP wasn't my first choice and I even felt bad at enrolling in this university. Nevertheless, I didn't have a difficult time transforming myself from an Atenean to a 'Iskolar ng Bayan.' As what one of the emcees said "Let go of your high school to be able to cheer for UP." And I'm working on that gradually though I'll always be an Atenean at heart.


THE AFTERMATH

I didn't join the campus tour anymore because it was getting dark. I didn't want to have my first ever solitary trip in Manila at past 5. Everything was going smoothly: the UP Diliman - Katipunan jeepney trip and the LRT ride to Cubao. Unfortunately, I got the wrong exit from Gateway. The stalls and stores I was passing weren't familiar anymore. I got lost. Gee. I just walked on until I reached Famers Market and a Terminal. I didn't want to ask for directions because the person might take me for granted. I was already feeling dizzy because I didn't take lunch. Finally, I reached my destination after a half-hour of searching. WHEW! I stopped by Jollibee (in Alimall) to eat. I never liked eating alone but this time, I had to do it on my own. This adventurous day concluded with a surprise - an angel sent by God. Ma'am Ace, our former moderator who left us to work in Dubai, shared the table with me. Wow. It was quite an experience that I'll never forget.

Quite accurate

I was browsing interesting topics on blogthings.com until I found what I've been looking for on actualme.com. The personality test has undergone research and testing. It was based on Thurstone's Law of Comparative Judgment(as described). So I thought it was worth a try. And, walah! I was surprised to see the result. Everthing stated below is true. Try it also. =)

The People Person

Above all else, you love to interact with people. It doesn't matter how many people there are or at what level you're communicating; you do it effortlessly. Conversation has been extremely natural to you your whole life. In fact, if you're isolated from people for a long period of time, your energy's focus seems to become depressed.

Yes, contact with others is more important than breathing for you. You can't live without it. When you walk down a corridor or a street, you're always greeting or stopping to talk to someone. People just love to talk with you about anything. That's because the positive energy that you give off during conversations develops an instant bond with everyone.

Even if you're not knowledgeable about a subject area under discussion, you come across as smooth and intelligent. It doesn't matter what conversations others are having or what topics they're discussing, you can join in without missing a beat. That's because you intuitively know people and what turns them on.

You have a wonderful sense of humor. When people are with you, they smile and laugh a lot. Whether it's telling a joke you heard before or sharing a spontaneous ad lib, you're naturally funny and entertaining. Your humor and ways of communicating are constantly creating situations that relax and motivate other people.

Learning from Others

Conversations and dialogues provide you with the opportunity to learn best. It's during this repartee that you're able to ask any type of question: logical, analogic or just odd ones to serve your curiosity. One of the best ways for you to learn and to be motivated is to belong to a study group, particularly one that has members who are focused on the objectives and deadlines. The process of these groups can provide you with the focus and needed detail to study and learn effectively.

Presenting to Others

Speeches and presentations to small or large groups come naturally to you. Your speech motto is: "The less preparation, the better I'll do." You'll use theatrical intonations and gestures, personalized comments and anecdotes with humor that are integrated around a few facts and important points that you've just jotted down on a piece of paper. When you have finished, people will leave your presentations feeling that you have touched them personally and have spoken to each one of them as individuals.

Dealing with Situations

When it comes to dealing with people and problems, you're usually very intuitive and successful. Your positive and personal ways of relating to people make them want to follow you during times of confusion and stress. It's when the situations are dynamic and need optional thinking and/or updated organization that you're able to step forward, take command and lead others towards successful outcomes. This is when your style of leadership becomes most effective.

If you're put in a leadership position where everything is predictable, you may become bored and sometimes fail. During detailed, long-term planning you might lose your energy and vitality to lead. In fact, you may even become depressed and lose your positive outlook. That's because you need intuitive freedom to arrange, zigzag and feel, rather than to only be logical and stay a straight course.

Here are some things to be cautious about:

1. Procrastinating until the last minute to finish a project or a paper
2. Being too spontaneous and unpredictable in situations where you are leading others
3. Wanting to be the center of attention at the cost of being successful in your endeavor
4. Over-selling through unnecessary exaggeration

The Bottom Line

Processing with people and experiencing the interactions are what you live for. While you might glance back at the past or forwards towards the future, you're centered in the "now." Every moment is spent connecting verbally and energetically with others. It's not the project or what the project might accomplish that fully excite you; it's the being together in the present that gets your juices flowing. You are, above all else, positively motivated and people-oriented.

20 things...



LOVE QUIZZES from ym.com





















Do You Want a Summer Fling or the Real Thing?
Open Minded About Love
You
aren't totally sure you want to be in a serious relationship; after
all, you have a lot of other things going on in your life, too. But
you'd be open to it if you met a great guy who treated you well.
Otherwise, you're happy hanging out and letting things play out slowly,
and making a decision at the end of the summer. You may decide you're
into something more serious, or you may want to part as good friends.
Either way, it sounds like you know what you want and are good at
striking a balance in your life.










Which Friend Would You Date?
Your dream date is Chandler!
When you catch your breath from all that laughing (and Chandler's good looks), you'll realize you've picked a winner.



This Friend is one great catch (and Monica's bound to agree): He's
funny, caring, and down to earth. You've gotta love a guy who stops
chasing all the other girls and falls in love with the one next door —
well, across the hall, but you see what we're trying to say! A date
with Chandler would be the most fun you've had all year!





















Do You Really Want a Boyfriend Right Now?
Some Social Pressure
It
sounds like there's some pressure to be part of a couple at your
school, but it doesn't sound too bad. If you do feel weird sometimes
for not being totally obsessed with having a boyfriend, just know that
you've got a lot going on already. Whether you are currently seeing
someone or not, have fun and don't let people's opinions or their own
insecurities bring you down.
