Why Christmas is Merry
No white snowflakes,
nor presents and cakes.
No Santa Claus,
nor carolling songs.
Just clear skies,
stars twinkling bright.
A deep silence,
of peace and reverence.
For eons ago,
in a manger's hollow.
A hope ignites,
on the very same night.
Christ was born,
God's only son.
Forever we celebrate
A love none can equate.

Capitalist Pig!!
Capitalist Pig
You are 57% Rational, 57% Extroverted, 57% Brutal, and 42% Arrogant.
You are the Capitalist Pig! This means that you are less emotional than most, focusing more on logic. You are also more selfish, greedy, and care very little for the well-being of others, hence you probably hold capitalistic political views. You are also an extrovert, like most of the people in the hallmark capitalistic country of America. Despite these traits, you are surprisingly not very arrogant, tending to view yourself as equal to others. Which seems strange given that you are so mean and brutal to others at times. In conclusion, your personality defect is that you are a bit too logical, rather unemotional, way too extroverted, and also very brutal in regards to others. You may even be a bit insecure about yourself, little piggy. So stop being so selfish and calculating and learn to see people as people, man!
You are 57% Rational, 57% Extroverted, 57% Brutal, and 42% Arrogant.
To put it less negatively:
1. You are more RATIONAL than intuitive.
2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.
3. You are more BRUTAL than gentle.
4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.
Compatibility:
Your exact opposite is the Starving Artist.
Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Smartass, the Braggart, and the Spiteful Loner.
If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.

Morbid but fun...
I know it's rather late to rave about it but pardon me for not catching the movie when it was in the theatres. Anyway, I just saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on vcd and I thought Tim Burton was brilliant!! He not only injected his style into the movie, but I thought he brought out the morbidity of Roald Dahl's characteristic style so well!! The oompa-loompas are extremely disturbing I find... which was pretty much what Roald Dahl wanted to accomplish...
And Johnny Depp was excellent as Willy Wonka,... keke... A pity though that the movie has to cater to the mass market... and hence nobody really died in the show. If i remember the book correctly, I thought Violet got so round and fat with juice that she burst... heh....

When is enough... enough?
In a relationship, when is enough really enough?? True... I agree that a relationship is built on truth and trust in each other... but have there been times when a person has done something really stupid and it was a dilemma of telling the truth and therefore upsetting the partner... or telling a white lie... hoping that what he/she don't know doesn't hurt??
and how is it that two persons who love each other can find so much to quarrel about?? what is there to quarrel?
I don't like quarrels...and frankly i don't believe that a relationship means being happy every moment. I believe that in every relationship there are ups and downs... the ups are the happy moments, but there are bound to be times when two people will disagree... the downs. That was how God made us in the first place... with free will... otherwise He might as well have manufactured us a perfect robots. And because I believe every relationship is imperfect, even our relationship with God for we are humans and we are flawed, no matter how much a couple disagree, I feel that is part and parcel of a relationship. How disagreements are talked out are part and parcel of the work that is required to keep a relationship healthy. Yes work! Whoever said that relationships are pure enjoyment?? That's only the partial by-product of a well-managed relationship.
But why is it that some people feel the need to raise the question or even seem to threaten to break up every time there is a disagreement? Shouldn't the fact that you love him/her be enough for you to stop you from even mentioning that? And when will enough be enough... that the person on the receiving end might just decide to take that threat seriously once and for all...
How I wish I can say never.

Your job is to LISTEN!! Not interrupt!
How annoying can it get when you call a helpdesk to solve a problem and before you can fully describe what is wrong, the person on the helpdesk keeps interrupting you by jumping to her own conclusions about what went wrong or about your problem???
Highly annoying. When will they ever teach helpdesk and service people to listen, think then speak? Not that I'm going to take half an hour to tell her the problem i encountered. If only she would just shut up and listen then I could have ended that call in just 5 minutes instead of taking 15 minutes to disagree with her wrong conclusions and elaborate what went wrong!!
Simply a waste of time.
