I'm almost a genius!

Free-IQTest.net - IQ Test

Ya ya, I took another IQ test this morning, after the one called Mensa Workout that I've taken last night at the Mensa website... I only scored 22/30, I think 2 of those that I didn't get was because my English is not good enough... eeeeeee!!

Well, looking at the Score Guide from the one I've taken this morning, I have an IQ or 141... And then I was told that I have to add some 5 - 10% on top of my score because English is not my native language (I wonder if there's anything in Chinese out there...).  That would make me... erm... a genius then!!! WAAAA~~~ I could be in the same category as Einstein!! 

I'd never thought that I could possibly be a genius!!  But, they say, IQ is less important than EQ these days.  I think that's just about right, coz being a woman, I usually don't make use of my IQ when I shop, eat, fall in love, drink... etc. etc.  and my EQ must be somewhere on another planet when I get angry... I think some of my friends, who know me well enough can tell.

Conclusion,  although I have an IQ of a genius, because I don't really have very high EQ, that makes me... errr.... just A NORMAL PERSON!!   But I'm going to tell my mom and dad about my IQ anyway, just to make them proud -- having a daughter with an IQ of almost a genius could make them quite happy hahaha!!


Challenged Brian Goode aka Brain Good (my x-boss in the RCT) to it because he's one of the smartest person I've ever known... After the test, he said, "... not sure what happened, only 156."  @___@

World Cup and Octopus

Yes, there's this thing called a Psychic octopus, its name, Paul. 

I saw this on Sky News this morning.  And then received the above link from Steve E.  It is said that Paul has made predictions about the German's matches in the World Cup and the accuracy, 100%!

I simply think that he liked the colours of the German flag, 2 out of 3 are happy colours.  And then it got bored, coz besides that flag in the tank, everyone outside the tank has the same flag... so this time, he's decided to choose something different, different from all the flags surrounding him...!!

Sorry, I'm being boring again -- "why do you have to rationalize everything?" asks my better half.

After all, octopuses are highly intelligent, probably the most intelligent of all invertebrates.  Why not a phychic?

Is this seat taken?

We have shuttle bus service between the apartment and Hankow Road in TST every 15 minutes which is very convenient - saves a lot of walking and $$ as well.

Today, we went shopping in TST.  We jumped on the shuttle bus to get home.  The bus provides 29 seats and, all are double seaters but the last one at the back on the left. -- only a few seats left and none of them was together...  It was quite full by the time we got on the bus.  I guessed we had to sit separate.  I proceeded towards the back portion of the bus and found 2 seats alongside, separated by the aisle, perfect.  So I said, "Excuse me, ..." to the young woman who had the window seat and her shopping bags on the seat next to her (by the aisle) so that she could remove the not-a-big-deal shopping bag from the seat to her lap and I could sit down.  She wasn't impressed.  And to my surprise, the man across the aisle (yup, he was sitting by the window on the same row with an empty seat by the aisle as well), reached over and grabbed the shopping bags... ar... I see, they're together.  The man then decided that he would sit with his partner instead of my husband (Hong Kongers don't generally like to sit with big hairy gweilos if you noticed).  So, we had the double seater where the man was sitting.

Whenever we get on the shuttle bus, we would sit together no matter how much shopping we've got -- we once had a dehumidifier, cutlery set, adjustable rod (1.7m in length) and a few other shopping bags + my handbag, still sitting together seemed like the right thing to do.  Unfortunately, some ppl just don't do it -- can't sit with shopping bags on their laps -- too heavy!!

I suggested to Adrian, that next time, I should ask the man instead of the young woman, with a slightly stimulating tone of voice -- we were both very tempted to see the woman's face turn and how she would react to the situation (Hong Kong girls are naturally very defensive/agressive when another woman, quite attractive and in her super deep V top, intends to talk/sit/engage any kind of activity with her partner with or without her presence/consent).  Both Adrian and I were really torn with the idea.  haha!!

I know, I know, me baaaaaaaaaad!!
