REDS - MSGS: January 2007

Moved In

So me and Kelly moved into the new house over the long weekend, with a great deal of help from Ed. Michael, Dan, Alex, Tim and Kelly. It is all setup now apart from 4 boxes… we seemed to have a comical amount of boxes to fit in. I have know idea we they have gone. After the shift on Saturday of course a few beers where on the cards followed by a few more, followed by more torpedoes, followed by some rum, followed by some drinking games – which were going well until Michael Marren and Mel turned up, Mel was drinking some milk based drink… mmmm did it mix with rum and beer well, followed by ed loosing and having to down the curdling mess. Sunday and Monday was unpacking fun.

Will post some picks soon.

So I took an IQ test.

Not to sure as to what exactly it means… I’m just glad the didn’t have any spelling questions… I would have been stuffed.

Anyway I apparently have an iq of 130… Don’t know really what that means but oh well

This is what they had to say

You are gifted with the natural fluency of a writer(ha i hate writing) and the visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your creative and expressive mind.

Insightful linguists can take complex concepts and articulate them to just about anyone. You have a gift with words and insight into processes and the way people think. These talents enable you to explain things clearly to people.

You have an uncanny ability to work your way out of sticky situations using your talent with words. Crossword puzzles, debates — you're particularly well equipped to come out on top since you can read people well.

Like Charles Dickens, your verbal skills go far beyond having a good vocabulary. Dickens' genius was in the artful and descriptive way he crafted sentences. Also Dickensian, is your keen eye for detail and your adeptness for identifying the best way to express an idea based on your given surroundings and circumstances.

Your ability to communicate your vision clearly will take you far. So enjoy being perceptive, and make the most of your abilities as an insightful linguist."

Score
mathematical
You scored in the 90th percentile on the mathematical intelligence scale.This means that you scored higher than 80% - 90% of people who took the test and that 10% - 20% scored higher than you did.

Your mathematical intelligence score represents your combined ability to reason and calculate. You scored relatively high, which means you're probably the one your friends look to when splitting the lunch bill or calculating your waitresses' tip. You may or may not be known as a math whiz, but number crunching might come a little easier to you than it does others.

visual-spatial intelligence
You scored in the 100th percentile on the visual-spatial intelligence scale.
This means that you scored higher than 90% - 100% of people who took the test and that 0% - 10% scored higher than you did.

The visual-spatial component of intelligence measures your ability to extract a visual pattern and from that envision what should come next in a sequence. Your score was relatively high, which could mean that you're the one navigating the map when you're on an outing with friends. You have, in some capacity, an ability to think in pictures. Maybe this strength comes out in subtle ways, like how you play chess or form metaphors.

linguistic intelligence
You scored in the 100th percentile on the linguistic intelligence scale.
This means that you scored higher than 90% - 100% of people who took the test and that 0% - 10% scored higher than you did.

Linguistic abilities include reading, writing and communicating with words. Tickle's test measures knowledge of vocabulary, ease in completing word analogies and the ability to think critically about a statement based on its semantic structure. Your score was relatively high, which could mean you know your way around a bookstore and maybe like to bandy about the occasional 25-cent word to impress friends.

logical intelligence
You scored in the 70th percentile on the logical intelligence scale.
This means that you scored higher than 60% - 70% of people who took the test and that 30% - 40% scored higher than you did.
- think i should give up being a flash devloper and go cut grass.

logical intelligence questions assess your ability to think things through. The questions determine the extent to which you use reasoning and logic to determine the best solution to a problem. Your logic score was relatively high, which could mean that when the car breaks down, your friends look to you to help figure out not only what's wrong, but how to fix it and how you're going to get to the next gas station.

BDO 2007

Was great, my best one ever… Apart from it sold out, there were a lot of people in a small stadium but it was still fun. We kicked it off with Minuit.. they were a fantastic start to the day, they got us up there and dancing… we then went to the Tuts… there sound was defiantly letting them down. I left the girls to it for a few hours while I went Hot Chip, and half of Diplo, before finding Ed on the walk to Kasbien, who rocked. We then met back up with girls for the killers it was so busy at the main stage it was crazy. Me and Ed then stayed for Muse and topped of the evening with a bit of Tool.

I have to say that going to one of those events makes you feel so normal… there were some crazy looking people there.

But all in all it was a great day out
