Type A. Right =.="




What Man Ee Means



You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated.

You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want.

You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!



You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.

You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.

You have the classic "Type A" personality.



You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.

You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.

You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.



You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.

You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.

At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

Fighting again

Long story short. My ego is not doing such a great job in balancing the needs of my id and superego. This is definitely not the first time, but at this point, the cat fight's going overboard. I'm torn between the training, and my wishful thinking that I've had since I was a child. All these leads to non-other than my dilemma on which path I should really be taking.

Given the current environment, the level of stress increases. The work, the people, the expectations are all part of this. And I really wonder if I'm making enough right decisions. Am I doing enough to obtain, what's considered a fulfilling life? Shall I shut up. Be an introvert. Be the next beauty queen (not like I have the features). Be the role model of an obedient person et cetera. Seems like nobody really gives a d*mn should I ever become a extreme opposite of the existing me. As a matter of fact, I'm changing every second, while writing this post. So what? No one ever does notice.

Or maybe it's simply an issue of perseverance. Should I manage to maintain that mentality for a little longer, people might start to wonder, or maybe not. In any case, it's apparent that a certain degree of change is expected of me. And that pains me. It's also crystal clear that a stagnant Man Ee is no longer permissible. And I despise that.

As it is, I predict the first change being my ability to trust, taken away from me.



Disheartened

Finally..

I have a little more hope and faith in getting into CMU. My toefl scores are in, and it's a huge relief, SERIOUSLY!

The applications to RISD is also going pretty smoothly. 1st and 2nd choices going all right :) With the 3rd on the way. And the 4th, pretty much set.

Here are some pictures from the dinner during new years :)

Accepted

Not the movie. Guess the back-up was really a back-up. But a rather strong one. Academy of Arts, SF. Accepted.

It's snowing... super bad. And my prof decided to cancel class. I'll have to go to get some stuff anyways. Will be back with some pics... I'm crazy XD

I've decided to go with online applications for Risd and AA. I'm still deciding what to apply for ACC. Got a couple of things to send in before the deadline, but that should be fine. Hey, at least I started doing something! Left with some sketches, and prolly some affidavit of support and all. Reminder: letter of intent/personal statement, portfolio (?), transcripts (which I need to, ugh, pay for and have MSU send to them) and, I think that was it.

And I'm seriously thinking of backing out from VCU. Good program, reputation, but too much to do for something that I'm not really keen on doing.

Oh, did I mention that i've settled CMU? That felt good :)

Hope all goes well

*Hint: I'm broke from paying all the application fees. LOL

***
I have a photo shoot scheduled next Monday, and I'm going country skiing this Saturday... and (mind me for doing this backwards), dinners on this Friday and Wednesday! Of course skyPE with my BELOVED FAMILY tomorrow morning :)

I'm lovin' my new handbag. LOL. That's really odd. Aha. Except that it's a little too small for everything. *Hint hint

ASS A very loyal and sweet person. Your loyalty can never be doubted. You are quite honest and sincere when it comes to your attitude towards working. You are a very simple person, indeed. Absolutely hassle free, humble and down-to-earth!! That explains the reason why your friends cling on to you! You have a good taste for clothes. If your wardrobe is not updated with what is trendy, you sure are depressed. Popular and easy-going. You have a little group of dignified friends, all of them being quality-personified.

SLUG Always up to some sort of a mischief! The mischievous gleam in your eyes is what makes you so cute and attractive to everyone. You are an extremely fun-to-be-with kind ! of person. No wonder people seek for your company and look forward to include you for all get-together's. However, you are sensitive which is a drawback. People need to select their words while talking to you. If someone tries to fiddle around and play with words while dealing with you, it is enough to invite your wrath.God bless the person then!

COCKROACH Quite contradictory to your name, you are a peace loving person. You best try to avoid a situation wherein you are required to fight. An outdoor person, you dislike sitting at one place for a long duration. You are a born leader, and have it in you how to tactfully derive work from people. You love being loved, and when you receive your share of limelight from someone, you are all theirs!!!! Well, well... hence some people could even take an advantage, flatter you to the maximum and get their work done. So be careful.....

PARASITE An extremely lovable, adorable person, sometimes shy, with a passion for quick wit. At times, you prefer quietness. You love exploring various things and going into depth of each thing. Under normal circumstances you're cool but when given a reason to, you are like a volcano waiting to erupt. You're a fashion bird. People look forward to you as an icon associated with fashion. Basically, you mingle along freely but don't like talking much to strangers. People feel very easy in your company. You observe care in choosing your friends.

SKUNK You are near to perfect and nice at heart. The examples of your kindness are always circulated in groups of people. You too, love peace. You wouldn't like to retaliate even to a person who is in the wrong. You are loved due to this. You do not wish to talk behind one's back. People love the way you always treat them. You can give, give and give love, and the best part is that you do not expect it back in return. You are generous enough. Seeing things in a practical light is what the best trait of you guys remains.

BULLFROG You symbolize a very happy-go-lucky approach in life. Whatever the surroundings may be, grim or cheerful, you remain unaffected. In fact, you spread cheer wherever you go. You are the leader of your group of friends and good at consoling people in their times of need. You dislike hypocrisy and tend to shirk away from hypocrites. They can never be in your good books, no matter what. You are very methodical and organized in your work. No amount of mess, hence, can ever encompass you. Beware; it is easy for you to fall in love....

SNAKE You are mysterious. You are someone who can handle pressure with ease, and can handle any atmosphere without going berserk. You can be mean at times, and love to gossip with your selected group. Very prim and proper. You like all situations and things to be in the way you desire, which, sometimes is not possible. As a result, you may lose out in some relationships. But otherwise, you love to help people out from difficult and tight spots when they really need you.

APE Very impatient and hyper!!! You want things to be done as quickly as possible. At heart, you are quite simple and love if you are the center of attraction. That way, you people are unique..You would like to keep yourself safe from all the angles. Shall your name be dragged or featured in any sort of a controversy, you then go all panicky. Therefore, you take your precautions from the very beginning. When you foresee anything wrong, your sixth sense is what saves you from falling in traps. Quite a money minded bunch you people are!!
