I am a Good-natured Realist
Quiz link from Sam's blog.
Good-natured Realists are warm-hearted, helpful personalities. They do their work conscientiously and have a pronounced organising talent. They often feel they are committed to traditional values. The family in particular is extremely important to Good-natured Realists. Their greatest pleasure is making themselves useful and taking care of other people. But they do not like pushing themselves to the fore; they prefer to fulfil their tasks out of the limelight. Good-natured Realists are real workaholics; they are very reliable and nothing is too much for them when it is a question of completing a project. Thoroughness, conscientiousness and sense of duty are their strongest points. They prefer established and familiar situations to new and unknown situations.
In dealing with others, Good-natured Realists are considerate and obliging; they are always happy to put aside their own requirements in the interest of their family and friends. Their home is mostly very well cared-for, cosy and tidy. Their perfectionism on the one hand and their aversion to delegating tasks on the other hand often lead to them taking on too much both professionally and privately. They cannot stand discord; conflicts make them very unhappy. One could almost describe them as being harmony-addicted - and this sometimes leads them to strongly neglecting themselves and their own wishes because they are unable to bring themselves to put up a fight.
Good-natured Realists dream of a stable and trusting relationship for life. Marriage and family are very important to them. They take care of their partner attentively and lovingly and put up with a lot for a harmonious relationship. They are also loyal and reliable friends. However, they can be very hurt if their interpersonal commitment is taken for granted for too long.

Good-natured Realist: Career
As a Good-natured Realist you are one of the introverted personality types. Consequently, you don't appreciate too much commotion around you so you can devote yourself to your task with sufficient intensity and concentration. You can work very well alone and while being immersed in a task, you don't appreciate to be continuously interrupted or disturbed.
Nevertheless, your need for harmony and your adaptability make you a good team worker if necessary. Therefore, you are relatively flexible when choosing your working environment, and have the ability to decide which setting you prefer. A profession that gives you the feeling that you are doing something for other people is important to you. Good-natured Realists are very caring people and enjoy taking care of others. Despite your in-troverted personality and because you are a feeler-type, it is easy for you to put yourself in the place of others and sense their needs.
You are most comfortable in a one-on-one situation; you are less enthusiastic about delivering speeches to major groups. At any rate, when choosing your profession, make sure to surround yourself with people who share your personal ideals and convictions, and on whom you can count to work with you. Too many obstacles to your caring for and supporting others make you unhappy.
For you, it is important to depend on a clear and structured workflow. You need time to prepare yourself for new demands, possibly acquire new competencies, and finish one task after the other. As a matter of fact, you are less opposed to routine work than many other personality types. To a certain extent, you don’t mind dealing with them. In your workday, some diversions should naturally be available, but juggling three balls at the same time isn't something you enjoy doing because you would be concerned that the quality of your work would suffer. That would be a nightmare for your perfectionist expectations of yourself and your accomplishments.
Thoroughness and accuracy are some of your great strengths. While other people stand in perplexity before that which you have accomplished, you see room for improvement in everything you have ever done. In your professional life, time-sensitive projects are especially helpful to you because you would be trying to improve rather unimportant details of a project until doomsday.
Good-natured Realist: Love
Good-natured Realists like you rarely fall in love head over heels. You approach a new relationship very carefully and guardedly. That has to do with the fact that you are one of the introverted Realists who don't carry their heart on their sleeve, and you need a little time to warm up. Additionally, you have expectations of what you are looking for, and what you need in matters of love. Before you give your heart away, you want to be sure that your counterpart is the right one. In most cases, that protects you from disappointments - and that is good because deep inside, you have a very vulnerable core that does not easily get over genuine lovesickness. However, you permit yourself to get totally involved once you are convinced that your chosen person is worthy of your love.
It is the main purpose of your life to care for others. There is nothing that makes you happier than to look after and take care of your partner. It is an easy equation for you: If he/she is happy, you are happy. You have a very loving, warmhearted, and generous nature that sees to it that your partner simply feels comfortable and in the best sense in good hands and secure with you. You may not be a person of many words but that is not even necessary. Just because you don't continuously reaffirm it, whoever is with you will be showered with devotion, care, and attention to the point that he/she won't doubt your love.
With your fine intuition for your partner's wishes, how he/she feels, or what he/she happens to need at the moment even before he/she does, nothing brings you greater joy than to make sure that your partner gets it right away (and probably some extra icing on the cake he/she could not have imagined). Hardly any other type engages him/herself as intensely for his/her sweetheart as you do. That almost borders on a willingness to sacrifice. And this also works in matters of sexuality. You're so intent on figuring out what your partner enjoys, and how you can best make him/her happy, that you often forget that you are supposed to have some fun yourself. When you happen to have a headache, it is suspected that you rarely manage to say "no," correct?

Alrighty I start work on Monday. Shouldn't talk much about it in case it becomes fodder for possible defamation lawsuits in the future. You never know. =D

Thats it
Lately everytime I blog, it's always tragic. Nothing good ever happens anymore and I'm sick of it all the fights. I'm sick of a blog where all I have is bad memories and lots of rants even when I don't update it often.
I'm going to stop blogging until something happy comes along.

Minimalism
is not my style. There's this image of crazy kaleidoscopic colors against a dark grey background in my head. I guess I'm not as subtle as I thought.
I'm so full right now it's not even funny.

Procrastination schmnation
I don't really like this layout. Will try something again soon. Doing this really made me realise my skills have gotten a bit rusty after leaving html alone since FYP ended.
And I'm giving myself until the end of July to get a job. I have got to stop procrastinating. Getting a job and earning money will make me feel less useless and bring something new into my life - no matter how much I enjoy slacking at home reading mangas and playing games.

Swoopiness
I need to get a haircut soon. My fringe, it's getting too long. It's really irritating when I'm eating because it just swoops down across my face.
I guess I can't use student prices anymore right?
On a random note: résumé profile, résumé profile - what to write?

5800, Baccano, Higashi no Eden
Just got a new phone: Nokia 5800. Getting used to the touch screen features and all. Lucky my fingers aren't fat or I will really hate the direction technology is inching towards.
Anyway I've been watching lots of anime these few days. Best finds are Baccano! and Higashi no Eden.
Baccano's pretty much like Guy Ritchie's Snatch and Lock, Stock. The kind where everybody's stories are interwined together. Alchemy, Mafiosos, Immortality, Blood, well developed characters - just go watch it already.
Higashi no Eden is more futuristic compared to Baccano. Since Baccano jumps back between 1931 - 1934 (with one occasion of 1711), Higashi remains in the 21st century delving on conspiracy theories and such. I never am one good with summaries, you get the drift.
Ending note - both have great soundtracks. Especially Baccano's opening theme. It's been looping in my head for a few days now.
