THE CAT-PERSON



                Well hello there! So, it's Christmas!!! Yey!!! I thought I'd wanted to do another blog for today because I feel awesome!!! Just had cash because my uncles and aunts have given me their blessings!!! So, anyway... Today's word is a bit far-off from what ya'll would expect... I'd like to talk about the 'cat-person'. *Hands Up* I'm counted actually. I've always been wondering what the differences between a dog-person and a cat-person are.

                    According to psychologist, Sam Gosling "It turns out that the "dog people" -- based on how people identified themselves, not on what animals they actually own -- tend to be more social and outgoing, whereas "cat people" tend to be more neurotic but "open," which means creative, philosophical, or nontraditional in this context.

             He added that dog people scored significantly higher on extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness measures, and lower on neuroticism and openness than cat people, the survey found. The effect persisted regardless of gender of the respondent.

                      Well, in my opinion, your personality will have to depend on how you were brought up and what your personality really is. But it's just really an interesting thing to find out how there are a lot of things that can be reflected to our personality.

                      So as I was blabbing about for the past weekend.... My cat Tomiji recently (when I mean 'recently' I mean yesterday, about Dec. 24, 2011) just turned 5. So here are some birthday photos of his, and also as to show that I am a cat-person. :))))))































ALSO! Take these quizzes to find out whether you are a cat-person or a dog! http://www.qfeast.com/personality/quiz/608/Are-you-a-Cat-or-a-Dog





So I guess that's it for today!
Enjoy your Christmas day!!!
Up next.... New Year!!!

Mindy Gledhill - The Christmas Song


C          Dm6           Em    Am/F
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
C    C6    C7              F   E/G#
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Am       Fm6/G#       C/G      B
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe

Help to make the season bright

Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
     Em      Am      F/G   G   C
Will find it hard to sleep tonight


               Gm7           Am7/F
They know that Santas on his way
            Bb/G              Gm/C
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies
       Am7/F
On his sleigh
          Ab/F           Ab/Bb    Bb/Eb
And every mother's child is gonna spy 
          D7                          Fm6/D  G
To see if Reindeer really know how to fly


    C      Dm6           Em           Am/F
And so I'm offering this simple phrase

To kids from one to ninety-two

Merry Christmas to you

CHRISTMAS FOODS


                    Two more days and it's Christmas! And I know what you're all thinking of you guys... it's that time of the year where we all just forget about our special diets and just don't mind the gaining. I'm not bragging, but I grew up in a family where food is like to be worshiped of and without the traditional food on each occasion, it wouldn't even feel like the occasion at all.

         So today, I wanted to show you guys some of the great holiday food that most of us Asians just love to have around the dining table, the ref, or even at bed (hihihi).


          Some of the food that I've presented below are Chinese ( because I'm half Chinese), some Korean, Filipino, French... but they all taste AWESOME!!!



Beef Bulgogi


Queso de Bola


Chinese Sweet and Sour Fish


Pork Bun ( Siopao)

Chocolate Cake


French Toast



Vanilla Ice cream


Hot Chocolate with Marshmallows

HAM


Mango Float Cake

Orange Chicken

Peanut butter sandwich

Pecking Duck


Roasted pork


Roasted Dove with chicharon

Macaroni fruit salad

Siomai

Spaghetti

Chinese Sweet and Sour Pork


Fried Chicken


Kiam Peng ( Chinese Sticky Rice)

Kimchi


Lechon Kawali


Roasted Chicken


Rice-stuffed Chicken






       Well, I guess you guys might all be wondering why almost all of the dishes shown are commonly not for the holidays... But I bet you! They are all for Christmas for us Asians. :D
















So until here.

I keep you satisfied
