This Whole MBTI Thing Woke Me

This Whole MBTI Thing Woke Me - J vs P

I know some people take this seriously. I've seen interviewers do it; and before my son was allowed to even take on a college entrance exam, he was asked to do something like this. Not because they don't want him but it was because we asked for student counselling. So, as a part of their evaluation process, they asked my son to answer some questions before they can properly profile him and offer suggestions as to the kind of courses which might suit him best.

I've done the test multiple times and 90pc of the time, I come up as ENFP, one of the most unorganized, chaotic characters of all. Kind of true, but over time, I've changed. I've become less of an 'E' (extrovert) and more of an 'I" (Introvert).

Circumstances.

Anyway, as I watched this video as a person with 'P' (perceiving), I cannot understand these people who are predominantly 'J' (Judgement).

How do you live your life like this? Don't things go awry? Don't your plans go wrong? Don't you have friends who suddenly pull you into the corner and whisper into your ear, "That cute guy is about to ask you out. Do it but don't do it. We just need the drinks."

Don't we all have that friend? No?

Anyway, Seo In Guk is a 'P' like me; I watched this and felt all kinds of anxiety. If you're a 'P', YOLO? I don't know what else to say without dissing on people who are 'J'. There's nothing wrong with people who are 'J'; in fact, it would and might be good for us to close to J people. Because we don't have a plan, and they have all the plans. It's a matter of whether we want to follow their plan or when a fancy hits us, will they go with ours.

I feel you, Seo In Guk.

The reason why this is resonating with me is because I am moving house, YET FUCKING AGAIN, and I cannot find it in me to be strategic or organized. I bet those 'J' people would have everything worked out a month before moving out/in, but I have 1 one who is exactly like me...nothing has been done so far.

I am tired, exhausted, stressed, anxious, and on the verge of a panic attack. But I think I can do it. I think. When I say something like this, I tend to go OTT. But I guess, in this instance, it is OK.

XOXO,
Marsha

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

At Camp 5, 1 Utama: Kids' Rescue Mission

The kids had a wonderfully exciting day today. Now, this is as extreme as this mother is going to get. Mommy goes Paintball, kids go mountain-climbing...I think I've fulfilled the criteria of offering my kids a fun and exciting life as a kid. :-) It was one of their friends' birthday party and they're a little bored of KidzSports...that's for BABIES, anyway, they say. So, off to Camp 5 then, says the birthday boy's mother. Camp 5 in 1 Utama is located near Neways Karaoke, for those who have never been there before. It's a neat little corner tucked up on the roof of the massive shopping complex. Anyway, the kids had tons of fun although a little apprhensive when they saw how high the 'rock' was. It's actually quite neat and if I didn't feel like throwing up whenever up on higher grounds, I would have wanted to try it as well. The highlight of this party came in the form of a rescue mission. As we all know, when one is frighte...

When will Mariah stop flashing her boobs????

Mariah used to be my favourite singer of all time because she's got this amazing gift in the form of a voice that can go ANYWHERE but why oh why is she so obssessed with flashing those enormous peaks of hers everywhere...and why is it that all her songs contain sexual innuendos....touch my body is one of them. I mean, I love the song, I love the tune, I love the beat but PLEASE , Mariah, PLEASE .....why can't you be decent for once? I clicked to watch because I like the song and spent a couple of minutes crossing my fingers that she won't be flashing anything (FAT CHANCE!) in the video. But nope....no such luck. In fact, with a song like that, she goes even further over the top. Where got people answer the door in this type of clothing wan?? Is she for real??? I mean, in this video, she calls a technician up to fix her computer and she answers the foor LIKE THAT ??? Aish.... But the video was entertaining in a sense because the lam-chue-kok (male lead) is this geeky,...
