My Julie/Julia Project

I have watched Julie & Julia on HBO a couple of times and have been inspired to go back on blogging. Yet, I have too many things inside my thoughts to blog about and I always end up writing nothing at all.

Although I am now a mom and works as a home-based writer, I barely have written anything for myself; except for those Facebook rants that I post sometimes, which is sooo unhealthy for me, my relationships and people’s perception of me.

It is now 3:32 a.m. and Julie & Julia is on HBO again.

I am writing these thoughts in a piece of scratch paper in the middle of working.

I’m crossing my fingers. I hope this will make a good jumpstart for me to go back on blogging again. :)

I really hope I can do this. I can barely do anything for myself lately, with all my responsibilities as a wife and mom and a full time worker – it’s driving me crazy!

Oh well, wish me luck!

Thank you Julie & Julia for lighting this spark.

another boring episode: candymag

Another of those low-call-volume-days in the office.. And here I am again.. surfing through the web and got myself to answer these silly quizzes.. nyehehehe...

You're a reggae mistress! You love that distinct beat that gets you relaxed and energetic at the same time. You love the sand, the surf and laidback chic. Groove out with Bob Marley and the Wailers, Ziggy Marley, Black Uhuru and Jimmy Cliff.

Michael Cera from Juno and Superbad. Whatever "the simple girl" is, you know you fall into that category, and you expect your boy to be low-maintenance too. If you're not afraid to look silly and you think geek is the new cool, Michael's your man. (Seth who?!)

The In Your Face Dude/Jack Black. You're a sucker for the king of class clowns! He’s totally hilarious and every moment you spend with him is just one big riot. He's willing to make fun of himself to get a laugh out of you—but it can be a pain to get him to switch to his serious side.Watch him in: Kung Fu Panda, Tropic Thunder.
Chick Flick/Romantic Comedy. As a child, you loved fairy tales and dreamed that your prince charming would find you one day. Now that you're older, you're crazy about modern-day fairy tales (a.k.a. chick flicks). You often wish your life could be exactly like your favorite movie. But remember that life isn't about the prince, happy endings, and falling in love. If you play your cards right, you'll get your very own happy ending.

A Little Mystery and Adventure. Anything that calls us to walk an unfamiliar path is an adventure, parachutes and snake-infested jungles are optional. If you feel like all your days have melted into a single day, same morning routine, same conversations, same regrets while you stare at the ceiling before you sleep, it's time to choose the life less ordinary. You don't need to travel far for an adventure, what's different and daring could be waiting around the corner in a class, restaurant, or hobby you've been too scared to try; or even closer, inside you, like the fears you've been holding on to: of being judged, rejected, or alone. It's usually things we don't know that frighten us, and the only way to face them is to find out what they're all about. As the great poet T.S. Eliot said, "Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." The next time the thought of something scares you, take a deep breath and go for it!

Fear Factor. Chugging down a shake made from live house flies and blended maggots or free-falling from 200 meters above the ground -- most people find these gross and scary. But you find them exciting. Life just wouldn't be complete without your regular thrills and highs. Wild, outrageous, extraordinary, bizarre, and out of this world -- put them together and what have you got? Adrenaline-junkie you! Take more quizzes like this on Candymag.com

coffee blogthings

I thought of changing today's post to this because the original post seemed too long. And I thought I may have also bored you to death with. Anyway, I took these test the same day I took the test I have in the original post.

These test were taken a few weeks back during a very boooring day in the office. There was very low low low call volume and so there. Thanks so much to mara I had myself things to do.

And by the way, I'm saving the other blogthings test results for future posts. I may still be able to make more meaningful posts to it.

Anyway, here goes:
What Kind of Coffee Girl Are You?

You Are a Cappuccino



You're fun, outgoing, and you love to try anything new.
However, you tend to have strong opinions on what you like.
You are a total girly girly at heart - and prefer your coffee with good conversation.
You're the type that seems complex to outsiders, but in reality, you are easy to please.


What Kind of Coffee Are You?

You Are a Frappacino



At your best, you are: fun loving, sweet, and modern

At your worst, you are: childish and over indulgent

You drink coffee when: you're craving something sweet

Your caffeine addiction level: low


What Does Your Latte Say About You?



What Your Latte Says About You





You don't treat yourself very often. You find that indulging doesn't jibe with your very disciplined life.

You can be quite silly at times, but you know when to buckle down and be serious.

Intense and energetic, you aren't completely happy unless you are bouncing off the walls.

You're addicted to caffeine. There's no denying it.

You are responsible, mature, and truly an adult. You're occasionally playful, but you find it hard to be carefree.

You are expressive and friendly, but you are never pushy.


What Flavor Frappuccino Are You?



Caffe Vanilla Frappuccino





Smooth and sweet, you fit in to almost any crowd. No one would suspect you of being a coffee tweaker!



What Kind of Tea Are You?

You Are Black Tea



You have a bold personality. You're not afraid of simply being yourself.
You have the courage to speak the truth. You are fearless in your actions.

You come off as a bit intimidating and unapproachable. Only confident people are attracted to you.
You don't try to scare off anyone. You're just an intense person!
