 Engaged Idealist (EI)
Engaged Idealists are extroverted and helpful. Others find them to be very congenial and inspiring - especially as they are always willing to see the best in the other person. Their humour, their energy and their optimism attract other people. Engaged Idealists are very good at communicating and are good at convincing and firing on others. That is why it is a matter of course that they often take over the leading role in groups. This personality type often produces very charismatic persons.
Engaged Idealists have an unusually strong ability to empathise. They are tolerant and generous towards others; they sometimes tend to idealise their friends. They always try to suit everybody and want their relationships to be harmonious and satisfactory. To achieve this, they are prepared to invest a great deal and to put their requirements last. As Engaged Idealists are very considerate, there is the danger of them sacrificing and overexerting themselves for others. In their job, they therefore have to be very careful not to develop a burnout syndrome.
Engaged Idealists are reliable, well organised and love structuring complicated situations. They have difficulty accepting criticism; they quickly feel hurt and misunderstood. Their perfectionism also influences their love life - they look for the perfect relationship for life. Once they have made their decision, they are faithful, well-balanced and loving partners. However, should they get involved with the wrong person, it can happen that they allow themselves to be exploited for a long time before they end the relationship. Adjectives which describe my type: extroverted, theoretical, emotional, planning, idealistic, committed, likable, enthusiastic, responsible, helpful, loyal, diplomatic, friendly, inspiring, caring, solicitous, optimistic, effusive, adaptable, communicative, articulate, convincing, energetic, optimistic, open, vulnerable

I was thinking of making a review about The Dark Knight. HEATH ANDREW LEDGER DESERVES AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR HIS PERFORMANCE AS THE JOKER. I cannot stress it enough but everybody's doing it so I thought of making more of a memoir of this great actor. After all he's one of the reasons I watch The Dark Knight.
The Joker is too witty! He's most of the time relentlessly disturbing. *Why so serious?* He's one great actor of his generation. When a young, hunky 20 year old heart-throb Heath Ledger first came to the attention of the public in 1999, it was all too easy to tag him as a "pretty boy" and an actor of not much depth. He has spent the past five years trying desperately to sway this image away, but this has indeed been a double-edged sword. But that comes much later in his story. Heath Ledger was born on the fourth of April 1979, in Perth, Western Australia. (read more)

Appreciating Our Past
It is easy to be negative about past mistakes and unhappiness. But it is much more healing to look at ourselves and our past in the light of experience, acceptance, and growth. Our past is a series of lessons that advance us to higher levels of living and loving. The relationships we entered, stayed in, or ended taught us necessary lessons.
Some of us have emerged from the most painful circumstances with strong insights about who we are and what we want. Our mistakes? Necessary. Our frustrations, failures, and sometimes stumbling attempts at growth and progress? Necessary too. Each step of the way, we learned. We went through exactly the experiences we need to, to become who we are today. Each step of the way, we progressed. Is our past a mistake? No. The only mistake we can make is mistaking that for the truth.
Today, God, help me let go of negative thoughts I may be harboring about my past circumstances or relationships. I can accept, with gratitude, all that has brought me to today.
A Lesson in Life
Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere.
If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks you heart, forgive them. For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.
If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.
Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.
Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you either.
You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.
In your life, you'll make note of a lot of people. Ones with whom you shared something special, ones who will always mean something. There's the one you first kissed, the one you first loved, the one you lost your virginity to, the one you put on a pedestal, the one you're with.. and the one that got away. Who is the one that got away? I guess it's that person with who everything was great, everything was perfect, but the timing was just wrong. There was no fault in the person, there was no flaw in the chemistry, but the cards just didn't fall the right way, I suppose. I believe in the fact that ending up with someone, finding a long time partner that is, does not lie merely in the other person. I can actually argue that an equal part, or maybe even the greater part, has to do with the matter of timing. It has to do with you being ready to settle down and commit to someone in a way that goes beyond the little niceties of giddy romance. How often have you gone through it without even realizing it? When you're not ready to commit in that mature manner, it doesn't matter who you're with, it just doesn't work. Small problems become big; inconsequentials become deal breakers simply because you're not ready and it shows. It's not that you and the person you're with are no good; It's just that it's not yet right, and little things become the flashpoint of that fact. Then one day you're ready. You really are. And when this happens you'll be ready to settle down with someone. He or she may not be the most perfect, they might not be the brightest star of romance to ever have burned in your life, but it'll work because you're ready. It'll work because it's the right time and you'll make it work. And it'll make sense, it really will. So that day comes when you're finally ready making sense of things, and you find yourself to be a different person. Things are different, you're approach is different, you finally understand who you are and what you want, and you've become ready because the time has truly arrived. And mind you, there's no telling when this day will come. Hopefully you're single but you could be in a long-term relationship, you could be married with three kids, it doesn't matter. All you know is that you've changed, and for some reason, the one that got away, is the first person you think about. You'll think about them because you'll wonder, "What if they were here today?" You'll wonder, "What if we were together now, with me as I am and not as I was?" That's what the one that got away is. The biggest "What if?" you'll have in your life. If you're married, you'll just have to accept the fact that the one that got away, got away. Believe me, no matter how fairytale you think your marriage is, this can happen to the best of us. But hopefully you're mature enough to realize that you're already with the one you're with and this is just another test of your commitment, one which will just strengthen your marriage but it's alright. It's never nice to live with a "might have been," but it happens. Maybe the one that got away is the one who's already married. In which case it's the same thing. You just have to accept and know that your memories of that person will probably bring a nice little smile to your lips in the future when you're old and gray and reminiscing. But if neither of that is the case, then it's different. What do you do if it's not yet too late? Simple. find him, find her. Because the very existence of a "one that got away" means that you'll always wonder, what if you got that one? Ask him out to coffee, ask her out to a movie, it doesn't matter if you've dropped in out from nowhere.You'd be surprised, you just might be "the one that got away" as well for the person who is your "the one that got away." You might drop in from out of nowhere and it won't make a difference. If the timing is finally right, it'll all just fall into place somehow and you know, I'm thinking, it would be a great feeling, in the end, to be able to say to someone, "Hey you, you're the one that ALMOST got away."
by Mark Macapagal  A great marriage is not when the "perfect couple" come together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences. -- Dave Meurer
In love there is no perfect relationship. There is no constantly happy couples. I've learned that "You can't measure love by the problems and misunderstandings you've had and still having. It's how both of you overcome it." Yes, you'll have inevitable fights but it's how you hold each other's hands, embrace each other's differences and grow in love that matters the most. Lemme share a couple of lines from the movie The Notebook. Alice: Now I hate you, you smug bastard.
Noah: Well, I hate you. If you leave here, I hate you.
Alice:You wou...
Noah: Hate you if you leave here.
Alice:Have you been paying attention to anything that's happening?
Noah: I guess not. I think I must have misread all of those signals.
Alice: I guess you did.
Noah: You're bored. You're bored and you know it. You wouldn't be here if there wasn't something missing.
Alice: You arrogant son of a bitch!
Noah: Would you just stay with me?
Alice: Stay with you? What for? Look at us, we're already fighting.
Noah: Well, that's what we do. We fight.
Noah: You tell me when I'm being an arrogant son of a bitch and I tell you when you're
being a pain in the ass. Which you are 99% of the time.
Noah: I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. They have like a two second rebound rate and you're back doing the next pain-in-the-ass thing.
Alice: So, what?
Noah: So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. And we're gonna have to work
at this every day,
Noah: ...but I want to do that, because I want you.
Noah: I want all of you, forever, you and me, every day.
Okay I should've warn you. This is not for the stone hearted.

An e-mail sent to me from an old friend... happy reading Great story.. Hilarious but true... This is very interesting. ......... (to women) please take time to ponder...... ..(to men) enjoy the story....... . Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, If after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death. The question was: What do women really want? Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, And to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end. He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: The princes, the priests, the wise men, and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer. Many people advised him to consult the old witch, for only she would have the answer. But the price would be high, as the witch was famous throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant price she charged. The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree to her price first. The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, The most noble of the Knights of the Round Table, and Arthur's closest friend! Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunchbacked and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc. He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life. He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden. But Lancelot, having learned of the proposal, spoke with Arthur. He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life. And the reservation of the Round Table. Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered. Arthur's question thus: "What a woman really wants?" She said, "Is to be in charge of her own life." Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth. And that Arthur's life would be spared. And so it was. The neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom. And Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding. The honeymoon hour approached and, Lancelot, bracing himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him. The most beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened. The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, she would henceforth be her horrible and deformed self only half the time. And the beautiful maiden the other half. "Which would you prefer? She asked him. "Beautiful during the day .... or at night?" Lancelot pondered the predicament. During the day he could have a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, But at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch! Or, Would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day? But by night a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wondrous, intimate moments with? (If you are a man reading this...) What would YOUR choice be? (If you are a woman reading this) What would YOUR MAN'S choice be? What Lancelot chose, is given below: BUT... make YOUR choice before you scroll down below... OKAY? ____________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ Noble Lancelot, knowing the answer the witch gave Arthur to his question, He said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself. Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time. Because, he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life. Now... what is the moral to this story? The moral is... 1) There is a witch in every woman no matter how beautiful she is! 2) If you don't let a woman have her own way, things are going to get ugly. So, always remember... IT'S EITHER "HER WAY" OR IT'S "NO WAY" !!! | | after dining out with my mom and cousins we ended up shopping for some "stuff" for their new house. from Muebles Asia, to Philux to Idea to Brightworld...we even went to this place were we sat comfortably on those bright looking little chairs only to find out late that it says "Thank you for not sitting"

I don't need to tell you to go see it. But I will. In less-sarcastic and profane review form than you are used to. There's no rust on this baby. Iron Man kicks off summer on a blazing high note and practically dares the competition to measure up. It's been years since a movie superhero was this fierce and this funny.
Iron Man rocks!
The film tells the story of Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.), a billionaire industrialist and genius inventor who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon. Instead, using his intelligence and ingenuity, Tony builds a high-tech suit of armor and escapes captivity.
After opening the film on a horrible attack on the US Soldiers who are transporting Stark across the Afghanistan desert, we flash back 36 hours to see what led up to it. This is great, as we start the film off on a bang and THEN introduce our characters, plot elements, etc. while we are calming down from the big action spectacle.
Now, one might think that means “non-stop action”, but they would be wrong. In fact, there are only about three action sequences in the film after the opening one. But that doesn’t mean the film is boring; not in the least. Unlike some of the other comic films, the characters here are as well developed and interesting as those you’d find in any non-adapted material, which results in a film that’s just as compelling even when nothing is blowing up. In fact, the best parts of the film are the ones of Tony developing his suit (both in the cave where he is being held captive, and later in his Malibu lab), as it allows us to see Stark’s brilliant mind AND his natural charm at work simultaneously.
The cast, of course, is a big key to that success. Obadiah Stane, Tony’s partner, Terrance Howard as Jim Rhodes, Tony’s best friend and military liason. And bless them, they actually found a way to make the usually dour and boring Gwenyth Paltrow sexy as Pepper Potts, Tony’s loyal assistant who is the only one aware of his new project.
And of course, the action sequences. They might not be as destruction heavy as those we saw in the Spider-Man films, or even as effects driven, but they feel organic to the film, which is much more interesting. And while the effects aren’t extravagant (no giant Sandmen here), they are 100% seamless with their live action counterparts – there isn’t a single bad looking shot in the entire film.

for everyone |
 I want to go to the beach! ...it would be so nice if someone can take me there... =)
Can't wait to see my body massacred with those tan lines! Or maybe I just need some cold booze... how bout booze on the sand? hahaha :D Lately mas mainit pa ulo ko kesa sa Summer.... There are many original ways to espress your love. Women love romantic gestures and will blossom if you are able to express your love. It is all too easy to become lazy and to take her love for granted.... The important thing is that you do it regularly and that you don't take your relationship for granted. The old saying 'You reap what you sow' is so very true. A woman who is loved will respond with love.
The greatest piece of advice I can give to men who want to keep their women happy is, LISTEN! We don't necessarily want you to solve all of our problems but we love it when you listen to what we have to say and make "appropriate noises."
I don't care how liberated a woman is, women want to feel protected by a man. She likes a strong man but not necessarily a cave man. She will enjoy sensual romantic gestures more than she will to being handled roughly. Read: be sensitive to her moods and you’ll have a very happy woman in your hands.
I know that I haven't covered everything. There is just so much to say. It would be interesting to hear from a man's perspective what they want from a woman romantically speaking. So often we assume one thing and are surprised to hear differently.  | shout outs! | |
