Dare to take a personality quiz?

Have you taken a personality test or a personality quiz lately? Well, I was dropping Entrecards yesterday when I stumbled upon a blog post from Wiggy with a link on a personality test that he just took. Out of curiosity, I clicked on the link and took the quiz. I remember taking a similar quiz when I was still in high school.

You can also take the quiz HERE.

Here’s my results:

Your view on yourself:

You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you meet that person.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

Saturday Saved The Best for Last - Snow World at Star City

A fellow blogger, Lainy from Lainy’s Musings invited me to participate in a new meme entitled Saturday Saved- The Best for Last.

I was not able to join the first round last week but I promised her that I will participate in this week’s round. I think this is a brilliant idea and an opportunity for us to showcase our articles that we think deserves wider readership. The good thing about this meme is we can feature articles from our archives.

This week’s featured article is my trip to the Snow World at Star City.


One of the major attractions inside the Star City is the Snow World where you get to experience winter in the Philippines. It’s like entering a giant freezer with about 15 degrees Celsius below zero temperature. Based on press releases, it is one of the biggest man-made snow attractions in the world.

Well, I didn’t want to miss the experience so I took a peek inside and I can tell you that it’s worth it.

They will let you use jackets but there are also cold weather gears that are being sold at very high prices. Then one of the staff will give you directions on how to behave inside, before they open the door.

As expected, you will see snow everywhere inside. At least, this is the closest that you can get for a winter experience. On the left hand side, you will see different ice carvings and sculptures which were all magnificent. Just make sure that you don’t get too excited and break any of the ice sculptures as it could cost you P500.

On the right hand side from the entrance, you will see the ice slide which I read was the longest ice slide in Asia. Donna’s nephew and I tried it and it was a great deal of fun.

We didn’t last longer than 10 minutes as Donna’s nephew can no longer endure the cold temperature. We were practically pounding the closed door of the exit area just to get out. My fingers were getting numb and my nose felt that it's about to bleed.

One word of caution though, the snow is slippery and the flooring is so hard that in case you will slip off the snow, it will surely be a painful thump.

It’s unfortunate that taking pictures with your digital cameras or cell phones are not allowed inside. They let you bring your gadgets with you in a plastic bag but you are not allowed to use it. I also didn’t want to risk violating the rule and end up with a malfunctioning digital camera. However, they have a photographer stationed inside so anytime you want to have your photo taken, you can simply approach him. Of course, you will have to shell out more money, hehehe.

We had to enter the second time to have this souvenir photo taken.

A new layout.

How often should we change our blog layout? Is there a set standard on how many times we should change our template in a year? I don’t think there is but if you have answers to these questions, your feedback is highly appreciated.

What made me asked these questions? If you haven’t noticed, I have a new blog layout. This is actually the third template that I have used this year. I didn’t plan it, I was prepared to keep my blog’s layout until I find a better one. Honestly, I have come to love this layout. It is just disappointing when you see another blog who has the same template as the one you are using. But since you can not claim ownership of the template, you can not do anything about it.

One day, when I was visiting my favorite blogs and dropping Entrecards, I commented on Carlota’s blog who was then hosting a contest for her fellow bloggers. The prize? A custom layout. I have always wanted to have a custom layout but I was not prepared to pay for it hehehe. Obviously, I was one of the winners and you are now looking at my prize.

Well, thanks to Carlota for all the hard work and creativity that she had put in to come up with this layout. She definitely exceeded all of my expectations. I just love the header!

Here is this blog’s evolution:

This is the first template that i used this year. I like the header but the body is quite dull.



I installed this layout on the 8th of February 2009 and it has since played a significant role in the success and failures of this blog. However, it is time to say goodbye to this layout.



So what do you think of my new layout?
