ang gulo at ang saya

some of the pix that we had in our planning session con team building in club manila east, taytay, rizal.







there were just two games introduced. one is the logits.. where i belonged to team no 3.. we were the first to finish in the all stations but we were the last because almost all of the eggs were broken even before it was thrown away. hehehe. we had the most eggs but we broke half of them. talking of my carelessness.













he next game is where we form a circle and had to hold the hand of anybody in front of us and untangle it later... that was the most difficult, tiring but enjoyable game. you can see and hear the exasperated looks, the desperate stares and sighs, loudest laughs... but to sum it up.. we were having fun.




we row the kayak tirelessly up to sawa... had also swim til it gets darker. we didn't mind the numb feelings in our torso and back... we thought that we would feel worse the next day but what a heck! this is not so often. =)

the place is very nice and relaxing. lots of flowering plants. it is just right for week-end getaways for families and groups.




there's also a nice water slide but it didn't work for me. i had tried twice but always end up walking down to the last stream.. hehehe. hindi ako madulas. waaaaaaaaa!

trip to divisoria

some people spend their holidays vacationing, visiting places, partying or sleeping.. but us? we went to divisoria. its been a long time the last time that i've been there. well, holiday is just my time to do things that's out of my routine. sundays are always fully booked.

we woke up around 9AM... had our breakfast and head-off there. it was so traffic on the way because of the seagame and of course, its holiday and everyone is going to divisoria.. ohh maybe, just us who wants to buy practical gifts. hehehe. well, the jeepney driver just drop us off close to eng beetin store.. its still a long walk to the market.

there are lots of people walking to and fro, so traffic. bigger vans passing by the congested area.. waaaaaa! pinoy talaga! and the street vendors running and cramming to secure their paninda's from the police. they're not allowed to sell on the street though. some even bribed the policemen so they can market their goods. kawawa naman sila.

we were having fun tossing and buying goods from the streets than in the malls/stalls. you can buy lots of things with a thousand pesos in your pocket. i was even carrying a big beach bag full of goods then.

but i haven't bought all the things that i want though we went home around 6PM. i was so tired and exhausted. my feet feel numb from strain in walking and standing.

we will be back soon! it will be another story to tell =)

3 months of wedded bliss and something =)

its our 3rd wedding monthsary now. well, i am not really counting coz for us, getting married is just a formality to make the relationship legal in the eyes of the people. i have felt being married to my husband when i said "yes" to his proposal more than a year ago.

and being married to him didn't change any in our relationship. maybe, it did.. but for the better. i have been acting the same way as before and same with chris. we had ups and downs... mainly because i am a difficult and uncommon partner. =) right Honey? but we make a good tandem.. because chris is a molder and a perfectionist.

ohhh my, its just nice to remember the day when we inserted rings on each other's third left hand fingers.. and saying "i dos" infront of our parents and close friends.

rekindling the fanatics in me

at long last, i was able to watched the national treasure movie. though, i have not viewed it from the very start.. i still enjoyed it. i found the part where nicolas cage was running away from the bad men, funny. he's an action star but he dont look good while running.. seems awkward.. hehehe!

its been a long while also that i have not watched any nicolas cage movie. i think the last one was the 8mm? i am not sure though.. it was soooo long ago..

btw, nicolas cage is my first favorite holywood actor. next is eric bana.. but that's another story =)

right brain dominant ~ ~ ~ first test

Brain Lateralization Test Results

Right Brain (50%) The right hemisphere is the visual, figurative, artistic, and intuitive side of the brain. Left Brain (40%) The left hemisphere is the logical, articulate, assertive, and practical side of the brain

Are You Right or Left Brained?
personality tests by similarminds.com

Left brain dominant individuals are more orderly, literal, articulate, and to the point. They are good at understanding directions and anything that is explicit and logical. They can have trouble comprehending emotions and abstract concepts, they can feel lost when things are not clear, doubting anything that is not stated and proven.

Right brain dominant individuals are more visual and intuitive. They are better at summarizing multiple points, picking up on what's not said, visualizing things, and making things up. They can lack attention to detail, directness, organization, and the ability to explain their ideas verbally, leaving them unable to communicate effectively.
Overall you appear to be Right Brain Dominant

~~~~~
According to Darwinian theory, optimal evolution takes place with random variation and selective retention. The evolution savvy individual will try many different approaches when faced with a problem and select the best of those approaches. Many historical intellectuals have confessed their advantage was simply considering/exploring/trying more approaches than others. The left brain dominant type suffers from limited approaches, narrow-mindedness. The right brain dominant type suffers from too many approaches, scatterbrained. To maintain balanced hemispheres, you need to exercise both variability and selection. Just as a company will have more chance of finding a great candidate by increasing their applicant pool, an individual who considers a wider set of options is more likely to make quality decisions.
