love languages

The Five Love Languages

According to the first test i took, my primary love languages are probably


Physical Touch and Quality Time.

Complete set of results

Physical Touch: 9
Quality Time: 9
Acts of Service: 6
Words of Affirmation: 6
Receiving Gifts: 0

this is the result of my second test.

Your Name: Ira

Total A - Words of Affirmation: 7
Total B - Quality Time: 10
Total C - Receiving Gifts: 0
Total D - Acts of Service: 5
Total E - Physical Touch: 8


HOW TO INTERPRET YOUR PROFILE SCORE: Your highest score indicates your primary love language. Your second highest score indicates your secondary love language. If two scores are identical, you are bilingual (you have two primary love languages). If the scores of your primary language and your secondary language are close (for example, 10 and 9 respectively), it indicates both are important to you. Whatever your spouse does to express love in either of these languages will get emotional points with you. The highest score for any one love language is 12. Having a clear picture of your primary and secondary love languages will explain much of your past behavior. Think back over the past and ask yourself, "What have I most often requested from my spouse?" Chances are your answer will lie within the scope of your primary and secondary love languages. You have been requesting that which would meet your deepest need for emotional love. Your requests, however, might have come across as nagging or criticizing and thus driven your spouse away.


so yeah, i agree with the result of this test. reading the interpretation made me rethink all my past relationships.

yes, i do ask for a lot of quality time, i'm a sucker for affirmation and i'm a very physical person. oh my gawd, is this a recipe for relationship disaster? is this why all my past relationships didn't work out the way i want them to? haha all i can do is look back and laugh at all my stupid mistakes. you would think that after one relationship i'd learn not to make the same mistakes again, but alas! i still do. i know i know, friends tell me that it's not me, it's them.. but come to think of it, they're right! haha words of a bitter b*itch. but see, it says so in the result

Your requests, however, might have come across as nagging or criticizing and thus driven your spouse away.

yeah, yeah. like i need to be reminded of how single i am right now.

let's breakdown all my love languages. (like you care but it's my blog and i can blab about anything i want to :p)

i like to get physical with partners and friends and everybody else. no, perv not THAT kind of physical. people who know me well know that i'm a touchyfeely person. it's my signature mannerism, my touchtouch. i don't know why i like doing that so much. it's always been my mannerism for as long as i remember. my mom used to hate it when i did it to her. nobody wanted to sleep beside me because i did it even with my eyes closed. some like it, some hate it and some even caught the touchtouch bug too! else used to love it when i did that to her. she sat beside me during class just to get my famous "haplos". well, more infamous than famous. ok, ok a lot more people hate it more than love it but i'm still going to do it! try to stop me. it usually works :D

quality time? who doesn't like quality time with someone you love? being away from my family and good friends made me realize how much quality time time i lost when i was back home. *bops myself* i like staying at home, catching up with "chismis" with good friends, shopping with my mom, lazy afternoons with my dad, watching tv with my sis, cooking with my grandma, ps2 playing/watching with someone, movies with pals and such. little things make the big things in life more bearable.

what can i say, i am a sucker for affirmation. darn, i think it makes me look like an insecure little b*tch who can't stop whining and can't get her own life! but all i'm asking for really is just a simple miss you or love you or take care at random times, random places and unexpected occasions. hopeless romantic you say? well maybe i am, but wouldn't the world be a better place if people just say random caring thoughts to other people? out of the blue, just for nothing say something nice to someone. it will surely make their day. im betting my life on it.

so there, sue me!

backing off?

twice now im my 24 1/2 years of existence that i've been told to stay away from someone. i've always wondered what is so freaking threatning about me? i'm not one of those girls who can stop you at your tracks or make you laugh your guts out when i tell a joke. this makes me at least think of myself in a more positive light :D

the first time it happened was when my good guy bud's girlfriend asked me to stop hanging with him too much. what can i do man, we are very good friends and we enjoy being with each other. we have tons of fun and we have a lot in common. i'm a good girl (yes, demmit i am!) and i would never do anything to jeopardize their relationship. or should i say past relationship ;) now that you two are not together anymore and we are still friends, what does that mean?

and the other time (hopefully my last) was when my ex's girlfriend asked me to stop talking to him, ever. she was pretty nice and cordial when she asked me that i didn't have the heart to bitch back. so i just told her, sure. no problem. i know where your coming from... and seriously, i really do. who would want their boyfriend's exes talking, emailing and keeping touch with them when you two are together? honestly speaking i hate it, but some people who touched your life in a way you can't really just erase from your life just like that. but dude, if you need the space, il give you space, il give you the whole universe if you need it.

so, to put things into perspective, il take this stay-away thing as a compliment. that means im threatening enough to other girls that they need to tell me to back off. that also means im not just an insignificant dot in this universe. im a force to be reckoned with.. i am somebody.

happy birthday cha!

happy birthday to a dear friend who means almost the whole world to me. we've been friends for more than a decade and people won't believe what we both went through in this lifetime. she's always a constant in my life. wherever i went, she was there with me. whatever gig i was in, she's there to support me. we've been together thru life and death, happiness and crying, distance and car oopsies...i'm known to be a magnet for badluck and inconsistencies but she never got spooked with it. whenever i experience life and all it's crappiness, she's got my back and i know that no matter what happens, it will all be a-ok. i know this because she told me one thing that helped me through the toughest of time.. she told me that "God will not give me any problems that I could not solve". and i still believe her.

happy birthday dear friend. till the day we see each other again. cheers :)

currenty addicted to..




when i watched serenity, i was instantly hooked. never did like sci-fi shows or movies that much but this one kept me watching. i'm currently watching all 15 episodes of the cancelled show and it's hilarious. i love the chemisty of the crew and nathan fillion is uber funny. i love the sarcastic humor and the intelligent chides between the cast.

anyway, my birthday is coming up and you can get me a pair of grey chuck taylors or the complete dvd set of firefly. ;) please? pretty please?
