Holiday Fever


I've got to do an extra work this weekend. I have to be ready to stay up overnight..:wala:
how can I sleep while my thesis keeps flying over my head..:hilo:

However, there's nothing more entertaining than imagining this sunday I would have a trip with my friends to the beach..
so guys, maybe I won't post any writing until monday..
Aaargh..I just can't wait until sunday comes..:eheh:.........:blush: ..........:inlove:...............:woooh:....

how about you? You don't plan to go anywhere? whoaa tell me more...!

Psychological Test

:eheh:In the middle of my reading (for thesis purposes), suddenly something came out of my mind
idea..I remembered a psychological test (not a formal one, amateur-made) given by one of my friends..

She asked me "Hey sa! If one day you have to get into a jungle, then all of a sudden, you find a string on the way. What would you do with it?"

"Well, :ha?: it has nothing to do with me..so, I think I would just leave it!" I said..

"hmm..:sigh: okay. Then, If on your way through the jungle, You see a lion.. what would you do?" She asked me again..

"What..? :galit: ..Of course I would get prepared!" I said it bravely..:anongnangyari:

She looked so proud too, while nodding her head she asked "Get prepared?"

"Yes! Get prepared to run! or at least, as fast as I can, I'd climb up a tree nearby!" :ahaha:
"Hhh... :tsk:" ....

"let's continue..after that.., you keep walking until finally you find a hut. Since you're so curious, You get into the hut.. In the hut, you see a table.. what do you think the form of the table is? is it rectangular, round, or triangle, or any form on you mind?"
"I think it would be a square one!"

"Okay, then.. how many chairs?"
I said "there are two chairs"

"You look around the house, you open the window and look out, what animal do you think you would see in the first place?" She asked again

"hmm.. I would see a rabbit..:blush:" I answered

she laughed smile "I see.. ! you decide to get out of the hut, take a little walk, and finally see a lake with some fresh water.. what would you do with it?"

:ha?:"I would just wash my face with it," I said

"That's all? you just wash your face? nothing more? you don't want to swim in it or anything else?" her laugh was getting louder :inis:

"Nope! I just need to wash my face, well...:yawn: maybe.. I'd play a bit and drink a little.."

"Okay! the test is finished! wink now, do you want to know the result?" she asked again :devilishgrin:

"she was quite suspicous" I thought.. then I said "so, what's the interpretation?"

"in the jungle, you saw a string right?" she said

straightly I answered "Yup!"
"and you didn't do anythin with the string :devilishgrin:..that means, if you face a little problem, you just ignore it, you don't even care about it"

"Ha? :argh:" I was surprised, "Is that true?" I asked,
I wasn't even sure to whom I asked that question, to her or to myself..

"then, you saw a lion, you ran! :inis: it shows that you always run from big problems!" She seemed so happy to hear that

:tsk: (me)

"next, in the hut, you saw a table, that table was square, that's what you thought, wasn't it?" :devilishgrin:she just kept laughing me! then she said "your way of thinking is linear, angular, rigid" :inis:


:waaah: "it can't be true!" I denied, hhh... but deep down, I knew that could be true

"the chairs you saw, there were two" she continued "that means you always share to other people, at least ONE friend of yours"

"well, not bad, hehehe" :sweaty: I relieved

"out of the window, you saw a rabbit" :devilishgrin:she started to laugh again "Rabit symbolized the type of man that you like, you like a cute funny man, right? just like a rabbit":inis:
there she laughed again..

:blush: (me)

She continued "Finally, when you walked out the hut, You found a lake with fresh air. This water repesented opportunity. What you did with the water showed how you're not really opportunist:devilishgrin: , I meant, you just don't really care with the opportunty existed in front of you" :inis:

:sweaty: "am I that bad?" I thought
"hh..whatever!"

anyway, It can be justified in some cases, I mean, I justified it.. some of them are true.. except at the part of "rabbit" represents my type, :ahaha: is it true or not? what do you think?

For psychologist who accidentally read this post, please don't get offended, I know this is not entirely valid. But, It's quite fun, we were bored in that afternoon, it refreshed us a bit :inlove:

You want to try it? :ahaha: just post your answer, I'll try to be a so-called psycologist :please: whoaa tell me more...!

Woman...

Hmm..why woman is created in such a way that makes her so fond of exploring her feelings :ha?:

sometimes, I just don't like the feeling of jealousy or any kind of anger without any clear intention or rationale

woman is so easy to feel happy or excited, and therefore she's just too opened to be hurted and sad

but I thought, that's what makes woman stronger than man. I can't imagine if man has this kind of sensitivity, would they stand still to face the storm?

I've heard an expression.."it's not too difficult to recover your physical body..but it's much more difficult to cure a broken heart" cry hh..I'm just so sad
:puppyeyes:::( whoaa tell me more...!

War is not the only thing that needs strategy

Do you like to war? or perhaps you're quiet familiar with Sun Tzu?:ha?:

surely you don't. But I think everyone likes heroic stories:astig: sometimes they just give us inspiration to be as heroic as the hero we adore much.

*oh come on! I'm not going to write about heroism!*:ayokona:

sorry, I'm a bit weird lately:hilo:

*hahaha..this is fun! I just found these cute emoticons from another blog*

Hhh...:tsk: alright then, let's get to the point..

I read some books on writing this last three days. Really,this is not what I want, it's just the demand of my thesis, Thesis has turned my world into books :sigh:
However, it gives me many..many advantages. I just knew that there has been someone named Peter Levin who kindly wrote a book entitled "Write Great Essays".. He's so helpful to a student who's a bit allergic to academic writing like me..:blush:
He told me some strategies to read academic literatures that they can save me a lot of time reading. I don't know whether you feel it too, but what's been deep inside my heart, is that I always have a bad impression on academic books. They're just so scary, emerge some kind of terror in my heart..but sometimes, they become such good potion to have a nice sleep :sleep:

He said that before reading, we must know, why we choose the book that we read.. yeah, It doesn't make sense if you have finished reading, then you realize and and are questioning "why I read this book? :ha?: that's a bit too late I think..:sweaty:

Then, If you have the reason why you choose that book, be a detective! Make some questions about the book, treat them as your prey! be a starving wolf! :ahaha:

But remember one thing, be a smart detective. You don't need to spell all the words written on that book. Don't delicate yourself by looking at the book line by line, it's thorny.

You just need to check the first chapter of the book and the last one. The writer usually tells the reader what the book is about in the first chapter, and the conclusion or the summary in the last chapter. (But, not all kinds of book have this characteristic, however, most academic books would)

If you want to write a good essay, 'eat' as many books as you can, of course after you have done proper selection on books which are really related to your issue. Just do as the way I have explained previously :lamagawa:

Finally, make some notes from the books you've read .:antok: Don't forget, give clear notes of source for every sentences you cited from the books.
After you make the notes (cited from the various books) try to paraphrase it.
I mean.. just translate the notes (which are still written using the language of the real author). Translate them into the language that you can understand.

When you want to include them into your essay, you can use some academic terms replacing some words that you have used in your notes before.

Hmm..:yawn: I know this would be a boring job. But believe me, reading would make your life broader and more exciting! :okay:

In sum, now you know, that it's not only war that needs strategy :inis:
Reading does too!

Okay, I hope this is useful for you. By the way, are you still awake? hh..you're not :tsk: whoaa tell me more...!
