My personality test profile

Thanks to a friend I did a RM 500 worth of personality test for free.

It’s call the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Its divided into four quadrant:

Extraversion(E) or Introversion(I)

Sensing(S) or Intuition(N)

Thinking(T) or Feeling(F)

Judging(J) or Perceiving(P)

I score rather high for Extraversion and Judging.

People who prefer Extraversion like to focus on the outer world of people and activity. They direct their energy and attention outward and receive energy from interacting with people and from taking action.

People who prefer using their Judging process in the outer world like to live in a planned, orderly way, seeking to regulate and manage their life. They want to make decision, come to closure, and move on. Their life tend to be structured and organized,and they like to have things settled. Sticking to plan and schedule is very important to them, and they are energized by getting things done.

No wonder I am extremely annoyed when there are changes in plans, or last-minute cancellation. Also I am annoyed when people take longer time to make simple decision such as ordering food or RSVP for an event. I really need to learn to be more patient and accept the fact that I cannot expect others to go with my pace.

According the test result, for people like me who is a ENFJ, we are warm, empathetic, responsive and responsible. Highly attuned to the emotions, needs and   others. Find potential in everyone, want to help others to fulfill their potential. May act as catalyst for individual and group growth. Loyal, responsive to praise and criticism. sociable, facilitate others in a group and provide inspiring leadership.

The outside world may see a ENFJ as energetic, enthusiastic, and very aware of others. Their genuine interest can usually draw out and involve even the most reserved person. they listen to and support others but also have very definite values and opinions of their own, which they will express clearly. ENFJs are energized by people and are social e: however, they also have a strong need for authentic, intimate relationship. they bring great enthusiastic and intensity to creating and maintaining these.

ENFJs like their life to be organized and will work to bring closure to ambiguous relationships or situations. However if people’s need conflict with schedules and rules, they will put people first. Others usually see ENFJs as:

• Sociable, personable, congenial, and gracious
• Expressive, responsive, and persuasive

I guess this test result matches 90 % of my profile and perhaps the remaining 10% is yet to be discovered by me or the outside world.

Learn to let go

A colleague send me an email, these phrases caught my attention.

There  comes a point in your life when you realize:

Who  matters,
Who never did,
Who won’t anymore…
And who  always will.
So, don’t worry about people from your  past,
there’s a reason why they didn’t make it to your  future.

I am the kind of person who always trying hard to hold on to friendships and at times i try too hard and if things did not turn out to be the way i want then i will be frustrated or disappointed.

But i guess at some point in life i just have to learn to let go.

Wish List ……..

“really expensive presents for edel for christmas”

This is the phrase that appear on my top search for my blog. Wonder who is the lucky “edel” as i know it is definitely not this “edel” !

But if is for this “edel” then of course the list is endless.  I especially like the word REALLY EXPENSIVE which mean the present must be beyond expensive. what could it be to be really expensive for me?

For  a moderate girl like me (ahem…..) there are so many things that are really expensive in my dictionary. But for this Christmas i shall let Santa know what is my wish list for REALLY expensive presents.

Dear Santa,

I have been a very good girl this year,

1. I give way to those drivers that give signal before cutting into my lane,
2. I cut down on the usage of plastic bags, tissues papers and electricity,
3. I buy my mom things that she wants (almost),
4. I try my best to tolerate unreasonable attitude (i did my best already but promise to improve next year),
5. I drive Sean all the way to One Utama So that he can go on a date with his gf and gave him RM 50 for his prom night.

For all the good things that I have done (and promise to do more next year) please pick one of the present listed below for this Christmas . If you decided to give me the mini cooper just drop it at the car porch next to my humble Viva, as for the travel package it would be good if it is for 2 person cause traveling alone is no fun for me. The rest of the presents you can just drop it in the RED BIG SOCKS that I hang at the door way. Oh, btw just to let you know , i am wearing a size 8 so don’t get the size wrong , love ya Santa.

My wish list

A pair of heels from Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik or Stuard Weitzman.

A designer bag from Loewe, Hermes, Fendi or any from that category.

A vintage ring  that  shines until it make a human lost his/her sight for seconds by looking at it (read HUGE bling).

A luxury 3 weeks travel package to Europe.

A RED color Mini Cooper (See how moderate i am, only asking for small car instead of luxury sedan).

Shoes size

I realise something weird lately. I remembered that I used to wear size 6 for Vincci shoes few years back when they started their business.
Then later I can no longer fit into size 6 anymore, so size 7 is the perfect fit for me.
Nowadays I realise all my shoes from Vincci is size 8!
It’s either they are making the shoes smaller size or my feet is getting bigger. Yup, it’s blardy size 8, i know i know….. my feet is a tad too big for my height but hey, that is the reason i can stand firmly on ground!

Christmas is around the corner…………….

 It’s the time of the year again! Christmas is just around the corner and I am so excited as this year I am having a pot luck party at my house. Some close friends will be invited to share this joyous festival with me and my family.

This is the first party I ever have since moving to the current house 4 years ago. So many things to do and yet so little money I have! Wish for a bigger scale party so that I can invite all my friends but after checking my bank account decided for a small scale party instead. Perhaps I will work harder next year and by next Christmas I will have more moola to spend.

Today I got the Christmas tree up and found out that the deco light is out, so went to get a new one and make me RM 22.90 poorer. Now that the tree is up and surrounded by fake presets under the tree, the atmosphere actually feels different. I can smell Christmas in the air.

Since this is a pot luck party, friends will be bringing food; this will save me the hassle to prepare food for 20 people. All I have to do is to whip out a dish or two and some drinks. I am thinking to make my famous chicken & mushroom pie with mash potatoes topping! Yum! Yum! And also this special drink that I learn from a friend, ribenna lemon frizz. Just add ribenna cordial, lemon juice, soda water and ice. Simple yet delicious and kids love it as well.

Now that most of the things is kind a firm up. All I need now is to shop for Christmas present for gift exchange and for family members.

Can’t wait for Christmas to come sooner!

我爱溏心皮蛋

自从由报章得知鼎泰酆从台湾迎进溏心皮蛋后我就迫不及待想要尝尝那传说中的皮蛋. 据说此皮蛋的特别之出就是蛋黄, 还保持着液壯非常的甘香软滑. 而蛋白(蛋黑?)则晶莹剔透和富有弹性.本地的皮蛋我就吃多了,可没吃过蛋黄是液状的.

上个星期朋友约我吃午餐, 而地点刚好在鼎泰酆,难得的机会而我又怎么会错过呢? 马上点一道期待以久的溏心皮蛋来尝尝. 一颗蛋切成四瓣,搭配着阉嫩姜和辣椒酱.

就如传闻中,单黄滑软蛋白弹牙味道适中没有太呛鼻的皮蛋味. 虽然一颗叫价就要RM 3.80,稍嫌贵了点,可是还是值得吃.

哎, 忽然很想吃溏心皮蛋叻!

Life is good if……………

Yesterday while i was at my office car park walking towards my car, a Z4 zoom passed me. Being a Z4 fan i took a double look at the car and also the driver, trying my luck to see got good-looking guy or not, instead i saw a young lady driver.

She is THE TYPE that as i expected. I just can’t help wondering why every time if i see an expensive sports car like a Z4 or Fairlady and if the driver is a young lady then they are the same type. They are so stereotype as if they were manufactured in the same factory.

First thing that you notice is the hair, definitely long hair let it be rebonding kind of straight or wavy long but not super curly long. Then the make up, for sure it is full set of make up like you see on super models on the run way with fake eye lashes. Huge Sun shade is a must as a accessory to add in the umph-ness of driving a chick car irregardless it’s sunny enough or not to need a sun shade.

Since i can only see the upper body and its normal to have slim lower body if the upper body is slim, so i can say that they are slim according to the upper body. Never actually see a fat young chicks driving expensive car hahhahah………

I am not saying that those young ladies did not buy their own car, who am i to say they do not earn their money themself? Heck, they can be making hundreds of thousands every month.

But i just keep on thinking – life is good if i have people to buy me luxury car too ! But like i said, have yet to see a fat young lady driving chick cars. Look like my dream will not come true unless…………… i win a TOTO  jackpot !

One week milestone

It’s offically a week since i report work to the new company.

How do i feel ?

I still need time to adapt to the new environment. Things are very different here compare to my previosu company.The culture here is as long as you can deliver they do not care how you do it. We were given free hand in doing our work with minimal supervision.

Unlike the previous company, everything have to go by the book, there are so many rules to follow and every single thing have to be reported to superior. We have to clock in at 8.30am and only go back at 6.00pm.

The best part about this new company is the flexi working hours. Most of the staff comes in after 10.30am even the official office hour is 9am. Same goes to go back time, one can go back anytime as long as by end of the day works are done. This practice helps a lot in avoiding the traffic madness. Even we were given a lot of freedom but it also mean by the end of the day the management expect the same return in terms of work performace.

I guess i am settling in pretty well so far, just that sometimes i get a bit lonely as most of the time the office is empty due to the nature of the business. I wish there are more people around.

 

 

 

Tale of a king

I have a friend who knows this guy who has a friend who knows this guy – let’s call him Raja.

Raja is an ordinary guy in his 30s, he smokes and drinks just like most of us and he works for the family business. Long story short Raja is just like any dude that we brush shoulder with in the street everyday, but there is one thing special about Raja that makes him different from most of us. He is from a wealthy family.

For a guys who is in his 30s Raja is quite new in the courtship game, he have never really go after any girls before as he need not to do so. Contrarily to his lack of good looks he is constantly surrounded by lady companion. So the story about Raja begins with a gold digger.

According to urban legend, the last lady companion that Raja had is a gold digger. She made him spend more than 50 grand on her in their 2nd month of relationship which included a branded watch start with letter R amongst other expensive stuffs.  This to Raja who is loaded with $$ is not an issue at all and this GD is not very smart. Apparently she did not know about the Chinese saying – to fish for a big fish you need to be patience! the wake up call for Raja is when the GD ask him to buy a 700 grand condo for her even before they talk about settling down together.

So recently Raja had ditched the gold digger, now he is looking for girls who are sincere and like him for himself and not because of his wealth. This shouldn’t be too hard as i believe there are many girls out there that are sincere.

Still there are still few things that i keep on thinking …………….

1. I can’t deny the fact that the gold digger is the bad one but Raja have himself to blame as well. Why would he choose a girl who go after his $$ in the first place? Love is blind? perhaps ……………….or because of stupidity?
2. Gold diggers , irregardless they are male or female don’t they have some basic moral values? How do they live life like this?
3. Can Raja find a girl who is truly sincere? that his wealth will not be a consideration at all?
