last night's MBTI testing gave me a result of INTP. i don't know if its accurate or not, since i kinda did fall asleep halfway through the test, and rushed through the rest when i woke up. i guess my introverted side does shine after all. 
according to the same test done on 21 feb last year in nj [i searched through my GC file just to find the results again, i was a ISTJ.comparing, i'm still as introverted as ever, intuition and sensing were pretty close then, and i guess the difference in results is pretty close this time too. same thinker, but i was apparently more judging then, with a 19 to 9 comparison. well, i don't see how this test helps me much, but credits to matt for allowing me to kill some boredom by taking the quiz off his blog. i'm gonna take another one off soon, as soon as i unload the thoughts swimming about my head the whole day.

firstly, CONGRATULATIONS valerie anne lim shan for that amazingly high final grade score on your final exams. i'm so proud of you, and should have expected as much anyway! we had our talk about uni and wells, i'm still pretty much undecided on going to uni or not after As. it's still a year away, and i know i should be working hard for it no matter where my decision is to go after it. Using the singaporean mindset thinking, i should be putting my pastissier-dream on hold first, and go for it after i get a degree in something first. then hotel management, business management, hospitality and tourism courses related to F&B started popping into the picture, since its somewhat related to my dream. my aspirations seem to keep changing because of the prospect of hard work and long days of studying, that i don't exactly want to go to uni. it's a little depressing that my motivations are so little. but even if i do go to uni, local or overseas? the cost would be a  really big issue. but locally, the options of NUS and NTU aren't very promising. SMU looked a little better with Bachelor of Business Management, with the option of a double degree if i'm hardworking enough. and then a search on my bookmarks, i found Edupoll, which gave me a list of private universities and private institutes in singapore that offered post-JC options in the courses that i might be interested in. ruling out the diplomas,   there's
1) NTU - Master of Hospitality in Management (i'm not really into NTU...but its still an option)
2)SIM -Bachelor of Arts in European Culinary Management (errrrrr....)
3) MDIS - Bachelor of Business in Hotel and Resort Management
-Bachelor of Business in Convention and Event Tourism Management
-Bachelor of Science in I"nternational Tourism and Hospitality Management (seems a little intimidating)
4) James Cook U - Bachelor of Business in "International Tourism
5) U of Nevada, LV - Bachelor of Science in Hotel Administration
6) APMI Kaplan singapore -Bachelor of Commerce with Double Majors - Hospitality and Tourism Management and Marketing Managament (WOAH......)
7)Raffles Academy - Bachelor of Arts in Business Management (Hospitality and Tourism Management)
8)Raffles Education Corp College - Bachelor of Arts/Arts in Business (Hospitality Management) [is there a difference?]
9) EASB Institute of Management - Bachelor of Arts in Tourism Management/Hospitality and Tourism Management/ International Hospitality Management (/+Casino Managament/+Events Management)/ Management and Retailing.
10) SMU - Bachelor in Business Management (the most tempting so far..)

oh wells. that can take the backseat. today on the ride to school in my dad's car, i was thinking about my own personality.i'm a pretty cynical, short-tempered, easily irritated person. I thought, its probably the influence from living with my dad. what if he was still working overseas like before in the past. would i have turned out to be a much nicer, better person? from him, i've becomed more short-tempered, impatient, easily venting my frustrations on others, even for small matters, and i felt that i'm becoming less outgoing. ugh. bad influence can stem from the family too you know. who knows, the laziness factor could have come from there too.
