Handwriting analysis

Didn't have a real post in mind.. so jus putting this here...
******* The Analysis Starts Here *******


For a graphologist, the spacing on the page reflects the writer's attitude toward their own world and relationship to things in his or her own space. If the inputted data was correct Shaun has left some white space on the left side of the paper. Shaun fills up the rest of the page in a normal fashion moving the entire writing rightward as he moves down the page. If this is true, then Shaun has a healthy relationship to the past and is ready to move on.(Really?...) The right side of the page represents the future and Shaun is ready and willing to get started living now and planning for the future. Shaun is leaving the past behind and moving on to what he perceives as an exciting and enticing future. (true enogh i guess)


Shaun exaggerates about everything that has a physical nature. Although he may not intend to deceive or mislead, he blows things way out of proportion because that is the way he views them. He will be a good story teller. This exaggeration relates to all areas of his material world. Shaun allows many people into his life because he is accepting and trusting. He is sometimes called gullible by his friends. That only really means that he trusts too many people. Shaun has a vivid imagination. (hahaha, oh man...)


Shaun is very selective when choosing his inner circle of friends. He excludes all but a few from his fellowship. He limits his intimate friends to one or maybe two people. He tends not to trust the masses of people but chooses only a few to trust.
(lol did this thing just contradict itself?... see abv passage...)


Shaun is sarcastic. This is a defense mechanism designed to protect his ego when he feels hurt. He pokes people harder than he gets poked. These sarcastic remarks can be very funny. They can also be harsh, bitter, and caustic at the same time. (hmm I AM sarcastic... but been cutting down nowadays...)


Shaun is a practical person whose goals are planned, practical, and down to earth. This is typical of people with normal healthy self-esteem.(according to most friends i have LOW self-esteem...) He needs to visualize the end of a project before he starts.(Of course what, how do you work if you have nothing to work towards?...) He finds joy in anticipation and planning. Notice that I said he plans everything he is going to do, that doesn't necessarily mean things go as planned. Shaun basically feels good about himself. He has a positive self-esteem which contributes to his success. He feels he has the ability to achieve anything he sets his mind to. However, he sets his goals using practicality-- not too "out of reach". He has enough self-confidence to leave a bad situation, yet, he will not take great risks, as they relate to his goals. A good esteem is one key to a happy life. Although there is room for improvement in the confidence catagery, his self-perception is better than average.


In reference to Shaun's mental abilities,(i can read ur mind......) he has a very investigating and creating mind. He investigates projects rapidly because he is curious about many things. He gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but he soon must slow down and look at all the angles. He probably gets too many things going at once. When Shaun slows down, then he becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, he must slow down to do it. He then decides what projects he has time to finish. Thus he finishes at a slower pace than when he started the project. He has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. His mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. He can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Shaun can then switch into his low gear. When he is in the slower mode, he can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. He is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip. (yes i am spock!)


Diplomacy is one of Shaun's best attributes. He has the ability to say what others want to hear. He can have tact with others. He has the ability to state things in such a way as to not offend someone else. Shaun can disagree without being disagreeable.


Shaun is secretive. He has secrets which he does not wish to share with others. He intentionally conceals things about himself. He has a private side that he intends to keep that way, especially concerning certain events in his past.


Shaun will demand respect and will expect others to treat him with honor and dignity. Shaun believes in his ideas and will expect other people to also respect them. He has a lot of pride. (bad bad stuff... pride)


Shaun uses judgment to make decisions. He is ruled by his head, not his heart. He is a cool, collected person(i dun think so...) who is usually unexpressive emotionally. Some may see him as unemotional.(i dunno abt this, but i noe there are people who think i'm happy all the time, jus cos i smile all the time...) He does have emotions but has no need to express them. He is withdrawn into himself and enjoys being alone. The circumstances when Shaun does express emotions include: extreme anger, extreme passion, and tremendous stress. If someone gets him mad enough to tell him off, he will not be sorry about it later. He puts a mark in his mind when someone angers him. He keeps track of these marks and when he hits that last mark he will let them know they have gone too far. He is ruled somewhat by self-interest. All his conclusions are made without outside emotional influence. He is very level-headed and will remain calm in an emergency situation. In a situation where other people might get hysterical, he has poise. Shaun will work more efficiently if given space and time to be alone. He would rather not be surrounded by people constantly. In a relationship, he will show his love by the things he does rather than by the things he says. Saying "I love you" is not a needed routine because he feels his mate should already know. The only exception to this is if he has logically concluded that it is best for his mate to hear him express his love verbally. Shaun is not subject to emotional appeals. If someone is selling a product to him, they will need to present only the facts. They should present them from a standpoint of his sound judgment. He will not be taken in by an emotional story about someone else. He will meet emergencies without getting hysterical and he will always ask "Is this best for me?" (emergencies yes, last minute backstabs... i'm only human, of course i'll lose my cool...)


People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially. According to the data input, Shaun doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others.

Guilty

as charged... Haiz, sadly i've been really sick the past week or so... The first day I was sick I still managed to go to the Helping Hand, but after much internal debate and discussion with my parents, it's been decided i'll go and help out only after i'm well... I feel guilty every night I'm at home, resting... Though I'm coughs wrack my body, I still think of goin there, jus to help for a few hours... Hmm, I wonder if this is similiar to 'survivor's guilty'. It's a trait some survivors display when they are one of very few to survive a cataclysmic event or holocaust. Most of the time these survivors believe they should have expired with their family or friends or at least that they are too lucky. Similiarly, I feel sometimes that I'm too lucky, so I feel the urge to act, to just go out and help other people, regardless of their age, race, religion or gender. It annoys some people I know... I'm not saying I'm a saint, or even a good samaritian... It's just a compulsion that grabs hold of me once in a while... I remember there was once, where on the same day, in anger or spite(i can't rightly remember) i pushed a guy off the stage, yet later in the day i saved a small boy from being hit by a car... At the expense of my sch bag being run over by said car... Could have been me :P... Maybe I'm too self-rightous, thinking of myself as better, bigger than others, thus having the responsibility of defending them.. Who do I think I am? Spiderman? Bleah, more like Mr Bigheaded Pig. Sigh... I wsih I could do more, yet my friend throws my words back in my face, 'Even Superman can't be everywhere at the same time...' Yeah whatever, fine, I'll just sit here in front of my com, and pray to God to get well soon so I can go out and save the world somemore haha... K, feel better after spouting nonsense... Will be back to post in... Dunno, when i feel like it... Oh, kudos to those who come to my blog to view it, sry for the scattered and irregular posting, won't promise to post in a timely and constant way, jus not my style :D, ciao amigos

Here comes

a doozie of a post. Hmm, i went to Helping Hand almost every weekday this week. Been Kinda fun and fulfilling to do something selfless I guess... Hmmm, managed to make friends with the 'manager' there and some of the uncles staying there. Just chit chat with them as I helped out in packing, labelling and moving the stuff that came in. Interesting to note the diversity of opinions and thought patterns of the different people there. Like the engineer uncle who was there only once but had a tendency to encourage my cousin and I at the oddest times and in the weirdest of ways, haha. Then another of the uncles who managed to sway me over to his cynical view of why the Singapore govt is being so generous and helpful in light of the Tsunami disaster. Hmm the different reactions of people was also interesting to note. Some were happy to help out(i.e me), others felt a sense of duty, a few were there due to coercion, etc etc. Only thing that made me irritated/disgruntled about the time is spent there is the items some people had the cheek to donate. USED underwear with stains on them, skirts with holes the size of a soccerball, a single shoe(not a pair), a comb, these are some the examples of items people donated. Rather appalling don't you think? Oh yeah another thing I noticed abt the clothes donated... I feel there should be a box labelled 'Unisex'. The sheer number of t-shirts and jeans donated is one thing. The best part would be the fact that all these shirts and jeans would've fit both men and women, posing a dilemma during sorting... Ended up throwing most them into the Men's boxes tho, Womens' boxes already outnumbered the mens' 3 to 1... Anyway for those interested in goin to the Helping Hand to help any day of the week, they open at 10am everyday and close around 8.30-9pm. They'll be opening the place for packing until february. It's located really near to Kovan Mrt Station, jus walk in the direction of the burgerking at Heartland mall from the Mrt station and continue until you see it.

Ok enuff said abt the Helping hand, recently found 2 old poems I wrote sometime back(actually most of my poetry is created due to failed songs, venting of emotion, on a whim and cos of a girl, sad i noe)(btw when i mean a girl is the same girl in all the poems haha, sadder still). Well here goes...

The Feeling
Did u ever get the feeling,
Of something not quite right?
Or that you might be preparing,
yourself for a fright?

That in the darkness an evil prowls,
Stalking, closing in inch by inch.
You tense ready to flinch,
Anticipating the sinister growl.

Or when u wake,
In the dead of the night,
Robbed of your sense of sight.
Feeling watched, you start to shake.

But give praise, give thanks
That you feel this in darkness,
Rejoice, that unlike the select few,
You do not feel this while basked in the light.

The girl(erm kinda obvious due to what lah)

I think of her everyday,
Just hopin one day she'd say.
The fateful words of magic,
That can change thy very self.

When she is alight I will be too,
When not I do my best to cheer her up.
I love the way she gives me a smile or two,
The way we talk like old friends, over a cup.

I pray to God we will be more than friends,
That at least we will continue as friends.
I don't know how to make the first move,
I leave all to Him, to help me prove.

Yup, Yup ok enuff of embarassing poems... Hmm what else is there... Oh yeah went to Jae's party, pretty cool, had loads of fun, tho i didn't drink much, didn't smoke, didn't dance, as usual... haha, had fun teaching this girl... Charmain aka sharnz? how to play taitee properly and mahjong... Dun think she got it tho, she was pretty far gone in alcohol land :P Yeah and also met two old acquaintances from ACS(I)... Oh and also one from VJC, Eunice, forgot to ask for her number again... Oh well, she seems to like Jaes, that's good I gues... Hmm ok i'm running out of things to say, so i'll stop here. To all my friends, take care yeah. God bless.
