What Kinda Girl Are You?

Have you ever thought what kinda girl you are? Well, I have. Sometimes I wonder because there are times that I act all bratty and girly, and there are times when I act all tough and dependent.

In the end, I took this test to really figure out what kinda girl I really am!

The verdict?

You are a City Girl!

Whether you live in the city or not, you've got the heart of a city girl.
You're up on the latest trends - what's hot in music, food, and fashion.
And you love to be on the go. Your perfect day is filled with tons of fun.
Your perfect guy is a city guy, so head to LA, NYC, Sydney, or London to find him!

Gifts for Mothers Day

I'm sure most of you are already thinking of ideas as to what to give to your beloved mother~! Of course you'd wanna come up with the best gift to cherish your one and only mother right? After all, mothers only deserve the best~!

But too bad, not all of us (like me!) can afford a really cool gift such as a gift voucher for a day at the spa to give our moms! So here are a few ideas that doesn't require that much money at all but only a whole lotta love from the heart, that will definitely make you eligible for the daughter/son of the year award!!

Surprise Her With Bed-In-Breakfast! Since Mothers Day falls on a weekend, I'm sure there's no excuse to be too busy to prepare breakfast for her! Try to find out what she loves to have for breakfast and surprise her with your own prepared meal in bed! If she happens to love 'nasi lemak', well you could always drive out to get some right? And if she's not the bed-in-breakfast type, set the table with fresh flowers and a card to surprise her! I'm sure that'll set her mood bright and early in the day!

Make A Scrapbook! Collect old pictures of your Mom and the family and make a nice scrapbook with dried flowers, stickers, and decorations that would make her heart melt! This one would definitely hit home~!

Make Your Own Card! If you aren't creative enough to make a whole scrapbook, a handmade card will do.. But creativity doesn't really matter right. She'll appreciate the effort you've put in to make her day special~! So I suggest a scrapbook.. ;P

Send Her A Letter! Write a letter for your Mother and tell her just how much you appreciate her. Be sincere about it. After all, life's too short to feel awkward about letting your feelings known. Seize the day by telling her how much you love her. I'm sure most of us have forgotten to tell our mothers just that~!

Be Her Personal 'Maid' For The Whole Day! Your mother endured 9 months of carrying you around, plus labour!, and has raised you to be the gorgeous person that you are! The least you can do is to be in her service for one whole day. I'm sure she'd really appreciate that~!

Make A Short Home Video! I'm sure most of you are tech savvy enough to be able to create your own home video! So why don't you put your IT knowledge to great use by surprising your Mother with a cool home video you've created. You don't need to be a pro at it.. Just use Windows Movie Maker that's very simple to use and which is already installed in every Windows XP, to create a heartfelt movie of your Mother! For more dramatic effect, find some really sappy songs like 'A Song For Mama' by Boyz II Men to integrate with the movie! This will earn you major pointers!!

So have fun with your new ideas and hope you all have a blast celebrating Mothers Day! =)

Independent Woman

Take the test to actually check out how independent you are! It's a great reality check for all you ladies out there! I for one used to be very independent. When I say used to, that was before I met Rafiq! hehehe.. I used to go everywhere and do everything alone! Yeah, I was a real loner!

Now the boyfriend pampers me way too much for my own good! That's what happens when you have that kinda boyfriend. I'm not saying it's bad though.. But don't ever forget yourself and depend too much on someone. Always have a sense of autonomy to keep your self-respect and confidence intact~!

Like they say, never make someone your everything, cuz when they're gone you're left with nothing!

My Results

You Are 52% Independent

Overall, you're a pretty independent woman. You don't follow trends just to fit in.
You've got your own cool thing going on, though you sometimes still care too much about what other's think.

Give Yourself Some Lovin'

When was the last time you told yourself you were beautiful? When was the last time you gave yourself a pat on the back for getting through another rough day as a woman? When was the last time you gave yourself a treat for all the hard work you've done for staying alive and kicking?

Well, if it's been a while, then today should be the day you learn to love yourself! I know some of you have already lost self love when your parents told you your grades weren't good enough, or your boyfriend cheated on you and said you were too fat, or the fact that you harassed by the office perv! Well from now on, start pumping yourself with all the positive energy that you once had! Cuz baby, you know that you can't give love until you have love to give!

Forgot how to?? Well here are some great steps to live by from now on!

Stop Self Criticism!
Stop letting that lil mind creature in your head tell you that you're not worth it! You know for a fact that you're as good as anybody else. Don't you have anyone say otherwise! Not even yourself! So whenever you hear your thought running negative, counter it by saying something positive about yourself!

Treat Yourself! Buy those pair of shoes you were eyeing last week. Treat yourself with a scoop of that Jamoca Almond Fudge after your crazy diet! You know you deserve it!!

Give Yourself Credit! Acknowledge yourself for all the right things you've done. It doesn't really matter what it is you've done. You don't need to win a Noble Prize in order to feel self worth! Instead, give yourself a hug for driving your sis to school, or for finishing that assignment that took forever, or for picking great shoes to match your bag! ;) Always remind yourself how fantastic you are and that you're doing a great job at it!

Take Care Of Your Body! Make sure you treat your body with loadsa TLC! It's not only the mind that needs loving but your physical body too! Some girls tend to forget they need to exercise, not just to lose weight but to keep fit! The only person that you can totally rely on to love you forever is yourself! Eat lots of vitamins and other supplements! Keep your body healthy and live to 100!!

Accept Compliments! I know most of you girls out there find it so hard to accept compliments! Stop this sort of behaviour as it will only strengthen negativity you already feel about yourself. Next time, learn how to say "Thank You!" or if you're confident, say "I Know!" and end it with a smile! Wouldn't want people to think you're a snob and a half~!! Besides, without saying "Thank You!" or any form of positive reply, some people might feel offended that you didn't acknowledge their generosity! So the next time someone tells you your dress is awesome, stop saying, "Hmmm..he he.." or "Ehhh, No laaah.." "Oh, this dress is old!" or even worse, quickly look the other way and pretend you didn't hear anything in the hopes that someone would change the subject!!

Make A Love Note...! To yourself! Make a list of things you love about yourself! Maybe it's the great smile you have. The witty charm. Your creativity. Anything! Remind yourself what you love about YOU and you might just fall in love with yourself again! ;)
