Alice

Oh, Alice in Wonderland, where art thou?

N and S

iNtuitive and Sensory.

One lives more in the physical world, the moment, the present.

The other, stuck in a world of permanent wonder, what could be, what should be.




A good balance of N and S in a person, probably N 50, is good for maintaining a fluid conversation. They can adapt to the other person's mood.

No, scratch that.

A good match between the N and S of two or more people will cause their conversation and engagement to be in perfect harmony and in fluid.

The laugh at the same things, and get embarrassed at the same time.

Their moods are in tune, they feel that they are not alone.

N's over analyze things, consider way too many opportunities and possibilities, that they become frozen with indecision. Overcome this. Learn to tell the important information from the unimportant ones. Control you mind.

S's are too spontaneous. Sometimes not thinking too far ahead, and basically living in the present, with not much consideration of the near future. They are usually decisive but may be short sighted.


Am I an N, or S?










I'm an N.

Could you tell from the fact that I coloured N my favourite colour?

Or from how harsh I was on N's but not on S's.




And I'm in need of some serious S in my life.

Singing; A balance of confidence?

Over-confident, you do not harness and ride the natural way your voice is supposed to sing, you try to use your voice to mold you into something else. Something not meant to be. You sound wannabe. You cannot hit that extra key. So don’t.

Under-confident, you annoy the audience by only giving a fraction of what is possible. Of withholding the euphoria that they know you can provide. They will not let your disappointment go unpunished. It is comparable to teasing.

Good singers are attractive because, somehow or rather, they have the right balance of confidence. This radiates outwards and subconsciously attracts people.

Then again, why can some bitches sing well, and some angels sound bad? Maybe it is a superficial body function thing after all. Or maybe, the level of self-confidence you have does not really affect your personality all that much.


Who you are.





Who are you?





(So warm up, tune in, and let the church bells ring!)

Why should I give a shit?

There will come a day, when the world asks you:


Who are you? And why should I give a shit?


Sometimes, you won't even get past "who are you?" if first impressions are bad.

Sometimes, you won't get past "why should I give a shit?".

Hopefully, you'll think about what to do when that day comes. Hopefully you'll be prepared to tell the world why it should give a truck load of grade-A shit about you.

Some people don't wait for the world to ask them that question. They storm the stage and seize the day, and they tell the motherfucking world why it should give a motherfucking shit in a very Samuel L. Jackson manner.

Some people can never seem to decide and commit. They remain indecisive about which answer to choose, until the world gets bored, and the time to answer the question is over.

Some people readily answer the question with "You should not give a shit." Hell, as long as they're satisfied with what they have.

Some people know the answer, but are too lazy to take the stage and declare it. Obviously, they do not want to answer badly enough.

Some people know the answer, but are too afraid to speak it. Obviously, they do not want to answer badly enough.

Some people are great motivational speakers, but are not motivated enough to practice what they speak.

But the saddest of all:
For some people, that day may never come.
...Hey! You've got an internet connection. Must be pretty well off. I guess that's not you, is it?

So, when that day finally comes for you, what will be your answer?
