But it’s pretty weird, the full results page anyway… Conscious self Overall self Take Free Enneagram Personality Test I don’t know about these personality tests. I think human beings are addicted to finding out how they appear to other people, and sometimes even filling out a quiz is a way of finding out how you really appear to yourself, out of context. But it seems weird to use an automated quiz to do this. It’s quite strange. Hm.

Well, during my pitiful convalescence here at Ritu and John’s house, I’ve passed a lot of time watching Bollywood movies. Khabi Khushi Khabi Gham, Nagina, and other movies the titles of which I forget. It’s very interesting for me to experience such an overwhelming flood of another culture’s imagination, values, ideals, and fears in one shot like that. Kind of addictive, too. I’m trying to piece together some rules to hold on to as I watch these films, of the sort that I hold on to (unconsciously, of course) when watching Hollywood movies… you know, the cop always needs to …

Well, I’ve completely all of truly-dippy’s quizzes over at quizilla. Truly-dippy put together some really nice ones, and I am impressed. Can you tell I’m not up to thinking much, right now?

I read two graphic novels (one very dark Batman, and Alan Moore’s V for Vendetta, which were very good. I’m almost finished Ursula K. Le Guin’s The Telling, which is also a good novel in many ways. The evenings have been nice, just relaxing and talking with Ritu and John, and Koko’s birthday yesterday was my first time for more than an hour in days (though now I’m healthy enough to almost be able to do it again), and quite eventuful. …

Aphrodite/Eros ?? Which Of The Greek Gods Are You ?? brought to you by Quizilla and this makes sense too: Wine ?? Which Alcoholic Drink Are You ?? brought to you by Quizilla …while this, I think I wanted, but I don’t really know… what do you think? You’re like a centaur! ?? Which Mythical Creature Are You ?? brought to you by Quizilla

Sorry guys, Ritu’s modem plug thingie fits into my PC, but my PC has no drivers for her modem and won’t install, and she has no disc. So I suspect I won’t upload pics until I have my own connection up in Dharamsala. Anyway, it’ll have to wait. Just thought I’d let you know! Gord

Yeah, another quiz, I know… but… they’re addictive. you are seagreen#2E8B57 Your dominant hues are cyan and green. Although you definately strive to be logical you care about people and know there’s a time and place for thinking emotionally. Your head rules most things but your heart rules others, and getting them to meet in the middle takes a lot of your energy some days. Your saturation level is higher than average – You know what you want, but sometimes know not to tell everyone. You value accomplishments and know you can get the job done, so don’t be afraid …
