PgL and A SiCk wEekENd..
On Saturday, ada assignment. Shucks. At 8:30am pulak tu. And it's in Su*bang.. the other side of town from where I live. But it wasn't so bad. Quite enlightening, really. A group of teachers took some personality test and were taught how to become better educators; using their strengths to their benefit and all.
I took the personality test too. Answered some questions and tabulated the result. Here's briefly what the test said of moi.
Portrait of an ESTP-Extraverted Sensing Thinking Perceiving
The Doer:
As an ESTP, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you take things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is internal, where you deal with things rationally and logically.
ESTPs are outgoing, straight-shooting types. Enthusiastic and excitable, ESTPs are "doers" who live in the world of action. Blunt, straight-forward risk-takers, they are willing to plunge right into things and get their hands dirty. They live in the here-and-now, and place little importance on introspection or theory. The look at the facts of a situation, quickly decide what should be done, execute the action, and move on to the next thing.
Rules and laws are seen as guidelines for behavior, rather than mandates. If the ESTP has decided that something needs to be done, then their "do it and get on with it" attitude takes precedence over the rules. However, the ESTP tends to have their own strong belief in what's right and what's wrong, and will doggedly stick to their principles.
ESTPs have a strong flair for drama and style. They're fast-moving, fast-talking people who have an appreciation for the finer things in life. They may be gamblers or spendthrifts. They're usually very good at story telling and improvising. They typically makes things up as they go along, rather than following a plan. They love to have fun, and are fun people to be around. They can sometimes be hurtful to others without being aware of it, as they generally do not know and may not care about the effect their words have on others. It's not that they don't care about people, it's that their decision-making process does not involve taking people's feelings into account. They make decisions based on facts and logic.
ESTP's least developed area is their intuitive side. They are impatient with theory, and see little use for it in their quest to "get things done". An ESTP will occasionally have strong intuitions which are often way off-base, but sometimes very lucid and positive. The ESTP does not trust their instincts, and is suspicious of other people's intuition as well.
The ESTP often has trouble in school, especially higher education which moves into realms where theory is more important. The ESTP gets bored with classes in which they feel they gain no useful material which can be used to get things done. The ESTP may be brilliantly intelligent, but school will be a difficult chore for them.
The ESTP needs to keep moving, and so does well in careers where he or she is not restricted or confined. ESTPs make extremely good salespersons. They will become stifled and unhappy dealing with routine chores.
Hmmm.. Apparently, I'm supposed to be an extrovert. But I thought Mas*ter Ch*in said that I'm a 'shy and reserved' person? Ayo. Whatever lah. Maybe it's not good to analyse myself too much.. Hehhe.. Too much information is not good, kan?
Anyway, watched the much-raved Pu*teri Gu*nung Le*dang yesterday. Lepas gi wedding Re*my (ayo.. he's quite cute semalam, I must say!), Sue and I singgah rumah Nad cuz nak drop off some stuff.. then we went to watch P*GL.
If I were to review the movie, I would say it was a good movie. But firstly, I don't understand why you'd need three years to do it. Sebab ALL the scenes were shot in the jungle. I mean, you CAN'T stay in the jungle for three years kan? From what I see, the longer it takes to complete the movie, the more money you use.. basic economics there, right?
Secondly, I personally think that Han*g Tu*ah and the Put*eri are a bit too old for their character. A younger generation of actors and actresses would be more appealing, I would say. Okay lah. Maybe I'm the typical person yang pandang pada paras rupa and all.. but looks do matter. Well, at least in the big screeen. No, I'm not saying that the two main people are not good looking. It's just that I don't think they fit the character.
Thirdly (and this is the most disturbing of all), I don't understand why they've got to portray the Muslim state of De*mak as vicious people. In one scene, you recite words praising Allah, and in the next scene, these same people were going on a rampage.. killing innocent lives and burning houses. Apa ni. Just because Maja*pahit didn't want to bow down to De*mak, you go around killing its people? Since when Islam taught such things?
We get annoyed when Muslims were blamed for every terrorist act that's been happening around the world.. but we can't blame the world for thinking so of us, kan? We were portraying Muslims are horrible ruthless people in our own movies...
Hmmm.. I wonder what the people in Ven*ice who saw the movie have to say about all this..
Otherwise.. the weekend was pleasant. And relaxing. I like...
