Tibetan personality test
Got this about an hour ago from my cousin who normally doesn’t send me serious stuff. I’m supposed to forward this by email as well, but it may get more exposure here.
I took the test before I put this here, deciding to do so after being encouraged by the results. I didn’t realize how much [...]
How you gonna see me now

INTP - The “Engineer”
INTPs are logical, individualistic, reserved, and very curious individuals. They focus on ideas, theories and the explanation of how things work. They are especially adept at discussions and debate. They have the ability to focus intently on a subject. They appreciate and respect intelligence in others.
“INTPs are relatively easy-going and amenable to [...]
I can dream, can’t I
A sort of tribute to the song which I remember best rendered by the late Karen Carpenter, which in Visayan colloquy has been expanded to include the phrase “libre bitaw” (it’s for free anyway), but in times when I know there are things that I would like for myself that are mere pipe dreams, I [...]
A Matter of Degrees
It’s nail on the head time again, with Pol Medina Jr. (a.k.a. PMJR) on this time of year where young hopefuls march up the aisle, take a small bow to the audience, and accept the fake rolled up bond paper with the tiny ribbon, shake hands with the Principal/Dean and then down the stage again [...]
Sophia mia!
I remember a time when women were rounded and full and voluptuous, not skinny and almost cadverous. I remember women like Sofia Loren and Gina Lollobrigida, Catherine Deneuve, and our own Stella Suarez and Divina Valencia. Not just skin and bones these women were, but curvaceous and rounded. And they sure could fill out a [...]
You’re addicted to your computer when…
Someone asks you what your new year’s resolution is and you answer 1280 by 1024 at 5:4 aspect ratio.
Your spouse says communication is important in a marriage… so you buy another computer and install a router so the two of you can chat over the DSL connection.
You have a friendster, a myspace, a Yahoo360, [...]
Encouraging, isn’t it …
About a month ago the entire office went (in batches of 2 and 3 employees) for our annual medical checkup, a requirement for our medical benefits. Having been out of a doctor’s reach since April last year, I had full confidence that I would ace all the tests.
My results came back saying that although [...]
I am the Sun
You are The Sun
Happiness, Content, Joy.
The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.
Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.
The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the [...]

A layman’s tour of the Scottish Rite Temple on Taft Avenue, Manila.
My husband Sam became a Freemason late in December of 2006. It is by this association that I finally entered that building on Taft Avenue that I had seen often enough as a child. The Scottish Rite Temple is a stone’s throw away from [...]
