"ENTPs are idea people. Their perceptive abilities cause them to see possibilities everywhere. They get excited and enthusiastic about their ideas, and are able to spread their enthusiasm to others. In this way, they get the support that
they need to fulfill their visions"
- Portrait of an ENTP (The Personality Page)



"It is so natural for these individuals to practice devising gadgets and mechanisms, that they start doing it even as young children. And they get such a kick out of it that they really never stop exercising their inventive bent"
- The Portrait of the Inventor Rational (Keirsey)



"ENTPs are usually verbally as well as cerebrally quick, and generally love to argue--both for its own sake, and to show off their often-impressive skills... argument as a sport."
- ENTP Profile (TypeLogic)



"ENTPs contribute an innovative, versatile, and enterprising approach to work. They view limitations as challenges to be overcome and look for new ways to do things. They need to find a niche for themselves in order to be free to maneuver. They prefer the start-up phase of a project rather than the followthrough or maintenance phase. Once the project is designed, they prefer to turn it over to someone else."
- ENTP - The Innovator (Lifexplore)



"...attention seeking, experience junky, insensitive, adaptable, not easily offended, messy, carefree, dangerous, fearless, careless..."
- Jung Type Descriptions (ENTP) (similarminds.com)


something about the last quote really caught my attention...

pretty surprised how somewhat accurate this is.
considering how unhappy i was feeling with the kinda questions the quiz was asking and my difficulty in choosing a single answer.

but yeaah. wow.


this is really a preeety not bad personality test.

jungle warfare

un-consequences of the ill-disciplined
by Rishik Vijayadas Menon


feelings change
faster than the weather and
my mind is making a mess of things


my eyes
betray next to nothing when
my words are stumbling into abyss


guitar
ensembles that im never at
somehow i feel they dont know im not there


slow cooking
dishes just hold me back
its never a problem if we have to wait


late work
conduces bad decisions so
im taking time off to read your mind


wild flowers
find their space between the cracks
beauty is never ever out of line


music
the rhythm takes me over till
theres no need to think twice about the words


this drama
stage is so empty yet
id like to think of just what might be


paint strokes
make textures that ive never felt
please dont you hide it behind any pane


long walks
induce me into poetry
you make it sound like its a bad thing


piercings
are reasons for my jealousy
how is it that metal's allowed to get so close


fire flies
are dancing uncontrollably
those lights arnt stars, but you dont have to know


mixed drinks
are more than what we bargained for
I hope you realise just how much you steal


darts fly
and barely miss the billard score
lets make a move before we're made to pay


darkrooms
processing films never been seen
why not, just let things develop while they can


your art is
larger than a movie screen
so hard to catch it wherever it ran


a sea change
of feelings and lack thereof
my guilt is making a mess of this


i could
pretend that you were never there
I could admit that it was you that I miss

hearts have no doors...

was eating hokkien mee tonight at the hawker when i thought to myself...


just why was it that it was only in the last three years i became so much more open to eating more variety?
I mean honestly.
if you knew me as a kid, anyone would tell you i was picky with a capital Brat. Yeah. Wow. Thinking back, I cant stand the memory of myself. I wanna slap me. =S
Okay, anyway, now im just diverting.


so anyways. I just thought up this theory (excuse? =P) of why kids are more picky when their younger. its cause going out to eat is a much much more rare occasion that they cant risk having it spoilt by bad food choices, i.e. kenneth kee style. whereas the older you get, the less of a privilidge and luxury does eating out become; it is then that it becomes worth the risk to adventure with new food and food joints.


haha. rights.

anyways. since you cant find the lyrics online i decided to go through the pains to type it out myself. haha. plus, i realised i never really listened to the lyrics completely. so yeaps. presenting...

"Become" by Acid Kindergarten

(intro)

You said I was wrong
well i wont just stand there
and leave you out again
Hes nowhere to be found and
i know that he must
be with his other friends

That heart broken (OR that hot broke kid)
yes manly yes though
scarcely other men (OR scares the other men)
a victim of van in threads (???!!!)
does sing that this must take us forever

(bridge)
complications
agitations
its all seen a loss of communication
and now im lost
your searching (for)
somebody like me


(Chorus)
being grown up is such a wasteful thing
when you dont plan tomorrow
you will never know
what you could have seen

being grown up is such a wasteful thing
ignoring the ones you loove
you could never tell
you are driving me insane

(guitar solo)

me and you (OR remember) ... (this part was damn muffled la. i swear.)
when we were young
dont forget
these things are only meant
for the other kids
and that beside a frowd (OR an-epi-cider-frou-d)
we'll take it
to rob a lease end far away (OR to rob a lee son far away)

my loves all taken
by a lovely girl at gogo
and if you wish to see her
you got to pass me through

(bridge)

(Chorus)

(Guitar and bass solo)

being grown up is such a wasteful thing
when you dont plan tomorrow
you will never know
what you could have seen

being grown up is such a wasteful thing
ignoring everybody!
you could never tell
you are driving me -

(Chorus)

Okay.. so deciphering those lyrics were harder than i initially thought it would be...
hmmm.. oh well..

anyways. im offf.

its ritten in the staRs~!

"Actually in navigation, there is only one important thing that will keep you from getting lost. Does anyone know what that is?"

"eh... experience?"

"What! So what does that mean for you!? You have no experience! You mean to say its pre- destined then? Its fate for you to get lost??!"

'Inevitable'
by Rishik Menon


Its written in the stars!
(and just maybe)
my work here
is a little too late
(for you)
salvation
is just another farce
(there is)
no azimuth
to help you navigate
(a path)
out of your
condition




your looking for a sign!
(some kind of benchmark)
to keep your
altitude in check
(over)
terrain so featureless
they lack even lines
(now palms)
cant save you
from a coming wreck
(red threads promise)
inevitable


Its against all odds
(to plot out)
this intersection
to pin point any place
(or even)
a reference
like a dance with the gods
(which leaves you)
in a limbo
without a change in pace
(your sinking)
like a cannonball


But your lost in skies
as cloud sails fly
and you hoist your life
in the rain
and it reads so damn
inevitable
that she should go
mad

one year six months ago i know...

Retribution for the Philosopher Kings
by Rishik


Its a phase im going through
where I question what is true
where I wonder
if the space
goes on forever
to the blue


Its a matter of the soul
its a question of the whole
and we take it
that such ideas
just cant make it
past the fold


I may not be the
best in the business
but I sure as hell
do give my all
and I aint ashamed
to try and hide it


and if those are the words of the song
then those words cant be wrong!



I just do just as Im told
im not afraid of growing old
im just frightened
i cant stay sober
as I lighten
up my load


I pursue these changing trends
My thoughts have cycled onto ends
my minds so open
im just concerned
i cant contain 'em
now and again

I may not be the best in the business
but I sure do keep on fighting
as i never doubt if im not worth it


and if the content of the lyrics just aint true
i'll contextualise it for you!


Its a journey to the end
its a poem of a man
whats surprising
is his writing
is the product
of a land


Its as personal as it gets
from the anonymous wits
who wax lyrical
vaguely poetic
syllables
in sets


I may not be the best in the business
but i keep my soul untainted
from the murmur of the masses


and if thats what you need to know
then let me take it to note!
---



and
yes im back from brunei!

so long, sweet summer.

ciao!
