How Is Your Inner Child?

Your Inner Child Is Surprised


You see many things through the eyes of a child.

Meaning, you’re rarely cynical or jaded.

You cherish all of the details in life.

Easily fascinated, you enjoy experiencing new things.

I have always thought that I am a child trapped inside an adult’s body. Maybe because I can see so many things in the eyes of a child. No, I am far from being innocent and pure like a child. But I can appreciate little things that an adult normally ignores or neglects. I can relate well with one.

But I also have other hang-ups that I need to deal with. Things like seeing death when I was not a child anymore but not yet an adult. Too much responsibilities on my shoulder when I was still enjoying my childhood. And so on.

Are You Impulsive?

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

Let me answer that first in my own words before you see what my score is from Blog things. Yes, I am impulsive. But it depends. I impulsively buy stuff that I don’t need at times. Like dozens of books that I can’t really read all at the same time. There are even books I bought a year ago that are still on my pile of to-read-books. I buy home stuff like pillows, glasses, plates, home accessories… stuff like that even if we don’t really need it yet. That is as far as my impulsiveness would go.

With the crazy stuff… being reckless enough that it seems I am throwing my life away… Nah. That I am not.

Now here’s the result of my Blog things test on impulsiveness…


You Are 56% Impulsive


You’re quite impulsive, but you never are reckless.
You qualify as a very spontaneous person, but you still know how to honor your commitments.

And while responsibility doesn’t come easy to you, having fun does!

How does this package sound?

  • One dozen gourmet iced cookies in seasonal shapes such as flowers, butterflies and tulips
  • Exclusive 2-tier tower shaped like a fresh tulip plant and flower pot, adorned with tulips, polka dots and a butterfly, and tied with a matching lime green ribbon
  • Tower measures 9.5”H x 5″W x 5″L

Sounds great, right? Now how about if I show you this Tulip Tower of Treats, one of the mothers day gift baskets being offered by 1800-Flowers.com?

Would you like one for your mom?

Now if you do, all you have to do is go to 1800Flowers.com and choose Tulip Tower of Treats among the many mother’s day gift baskets being offered by the site. 1800-Flowers is the name to remember when it comes to flowers, gifts and gift baskets for mother’s day.

My blogger-friends know my mom’s story. She passed away September 2005 from multiple organ failure caused by her sickness, a rare kidney disease. It was heartbreaking, to say the least. But we have moved on already. I accepted the fact that my mom was not meant to stay with us forever. If she was still alive, she would have loved to get a Tulip Tower of Treats gift basket. It would have made her really happy to have one. She was one of those persons that gets happy with simple gifts. What more with a special one like this gift basket?

So for those of you who still have their moms with you, I suggest you give them something special this coming Mother’s Day. Show them you love them and appreciate them through a gift basket from 1800Flowers.com. Trust me, it will make a big difference in your lives.

Weekend Snapshot #21 - Coffee talks

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

One weekend, over a cup of coffee, reminiscing about the good old days… The place was packed. So we opted to drink our coffee outside. It was a good decision because the weather was nice and while inside the cafe was noisy, outside it’s blessedly peaceful.

Have a great week everyone!
