Your answers suggest you are a Supervisor
The four aspects that make up this personality type are:
Summary of Supervisors
- Bring order to their home and work life
- Like to act on clear, achievable goals
- Think of themselves as stable, practical and sociable
- May be irritated when people don’t follow procedures
(i sound like those naggy and authoritative mums or something. bleah!)
More about Supervisors
Supervisors like to make plans, organise people and get things done efficiently. They are natural administrators who dislike chaos and strive to bring order to every aspect of their lives. Supervisors like jobs where the goals are clearly defined and there are proven work methods in place.
(i think this was so darn obvious in the aussie trip whereby i went online and printed out google maps step by step instructions on how to get to a particular place. also the itinerary with all the time, place, and even contact numbers! lol. but of course i’m flexible to changes okay!)
Supervisors are most likely to say they prefer a job which involves a series of separate projects, according to a UK survey.
Supervisors use logic to solve problems and believe in being open and direct in their communications with others. They prefer to work and socialise with like-minded people.
In situations where they can’t use their talents or are unappreciated, Supervisors may reject the opinions of others and insist they are right. Under extreme stress, Supervisors may feel cut off from the people around them and lose confidence in their own ability to cope.
Because they like to take charge and organise activities, others may find Supervisors too bossy.
(oops. really? i’m bossy? oh no. actually i think at times that’s quite true. crapppp.)
Supervisor Careers
Supervisors are often drawn to jobs in management or administration that require logical planning.
It’s important to remember that no survey can predict personality type with 100 percent accuracy. Experts say that we should use personality type to better understand ourselves and others, but shouldn’t feel restricted by our results.

i miss you!
haish. i miss my dear so much right now. oh well, at least he still smsed me even though he’s in camp :) by that i am so freaking thankful already. because i know it’s not always that you can sms in camp.. sometimes people might call you to do this and to do that..
and i’m just thankful that dear dear changed to an antique non-camera hp.. so now he can sms me :) just in case you didn’t know, camera phones aren’t allowed in camps. nor anywhere that’s of government secret, for that matter.
haish. i just miss my dear with every fibre of my being. lol.
i remembered dear asking me some time ago in aussie..
hw: hmm, so when can i marry you? (or was it when do you want to get married?)
me: hmm, i don’t know.. when do you want to marry me?
hw: hmm, after you come back from france lor
me: okay, you can propose to me in france when you come and visit me lor
hw: okay lor. wahh, but that’s so expected! like what happens in movies
me: heehee. but you still could plan something special ma..
oh well. means.. i have to start saving up and planning for the future already.
aussie 08 with dear dear part 2
so.. i said i would continue with the aussie trip isn’t it? alright, so we drove to carrington falls after sydney..
really beautiful.. unlike the other one which we went to later, which was so commercialized and disturbed. for this falls, you can climb down the rocks and touch the water, etc etc. gorgeous!
after that we drove down to kangaroo valley to have lunch.. even though it’s a small town, the things are freaking expensive! however, portions are really huge.. so i guess it’s value for money :)
oh.. this was the other waterfall that we visited. however it’s pretty small and i didn’t really like it cos you couldn’t get near to the falls, since it’s barred by railings :(
ohh. friendly inn hotel’s the place we ate at for lunch. not bad, great scenery outside, nice bar, nice facilities! and best of all?
it’s opposite the Kangaroo Valley Fudge House and Ice Creamery :)
okay after that we drove to Nowra to retire for the night.
lovely place. pelicans were eating fishes, beautiful sunset..
and dear and i were reliving our childhood by playing on the swings :)
oh, and there’s a great thai restaurant nearby too! the laksa that they cooked (very different from the singapore style) was delicious! it was sweet, and yet spicy. not very spicy in the beginning though, but i asked for more chilli powder. think the lady wasn’t quite expecting that. lol
after our dinner, hw’s dad wanted to walk along scenic drive, treating it as a walk after dinner. seeing that it was pitch black ahead (cos the sun sets very early), i asked them if they would like to head in the direction of the town instead.
bad choice i realized. WHAT TOWN? sure, there was an amusement park/entertainment centre, but it was closed. most of the shops were spa shops, dentists, doctors, accountants, etc etc. basically the “shops” were actually residential houses, open for business in the day, and where they stayed at in the night.
ha ha ha.
i felt so sorry for asking them to walk this way :(
so anyway, we were on our way to merimbula, stopping by jervis bay of course. how could anyone miss that place? it supposedly has the clearest water and the whitest sand.. not just in australia, but in the world! and dolphin sightings are pretty common too :)
it’s really difficult trying to synchronize the timing on the swings, especially when you start off at different times.lol. i think we looked super comical trying to do so.
so this is what i mean.. whitest sand, clearest water, being with the one you love the most!! perfect :)
haha, i actually drew one heart at first, but dear dear drew the other heart, plus the arrow! haha. so cute! i wrote the words “je t’aime” of course.
love you dear!
okay so anyway, down to merimbula.
only took one photo! haha
teehee! i love you dearie! muacks!
after merimbula.. was a crazy drive to melbourne. hence we left earlier that morning, since we knew that it’s gonna be something like 8 hours of driving, excluding pit stops. and after the lesson with the kangaroo, we didn’t want to drive at night anymore! hahah.
okay that’s us in melbourne, taking the 3.50AUD tram :) this other girl who had the same coat came up the tram! and she was sitting opposite me! wahhaha. so awkward! lol.
ohh anyway we drove along great ocean road the next day.. hence the photos.
this waterfall was not bad la. quite nice. the only thing is that it was raining, so the paths were wet and slippery. (which resulted in dirty muddy shoes and a dirty car afterwards).
we stopped over at Lorne for lunch. the place was ncie and scenic but the food was absolutely ex and gross. the bread was so hard, that when dear dropped it onto the plate, you can hear the “clunk” sound. well done, chefs.
okay i think after that we reached port campbell. long journey, and i had to keep talking to dear to prevent him (and myself) from falling asleep. hahah. stopped over at Marriner’s Lookout on the way. damn pretty place!!! it’s a must see! absolutely breath taking.
however, it’s a steep journey, so be careful!
and guess where port campbell is near?

the twelve apostles!
it’s only about a 10minute drive away. sadly, the gibson steps were closed!!!
Due to a recent risk analysis, access to Gibson Steps will be closed to all persons until further notice. The decision has been made on the basis of an engineering report that found there is an unacceptable level of risk to visitors at the site. The risk is from potential collapse of the cliff directly onto the steps. Any attempt to access this beach is not recommended
kns!
anyway, in case you don’t know what Gibson steps are..
The Gibson Steps are an area of cliffs on the south coast of Australia, located at 
38°40′06″S, 143°06′43″E. The cliffs are the first sightseeing stopoff in Port Campbell National Park for travellers heading West along the Great Ocean Road, located about 5 minutes drive away from The Twelve Apostles. The name Gibson Steps refers to the staircase leading down to the stretch of beach shown to the right.
all quotes are credited to Wikipedia.
sheesh! means i can’t go down to the Twelve Apostles lah! never mind, have to suffice with the Twelve Apostles National Park instead. :(
must show a bigger picture. 
i know my camera sucks. haha. but it was beautiful! and the wind was so freaking strong! i was like being blown backwards as i was taking the photos. not like you can’t tell from my messy hair anyway. haha.
some of the pictures are from the fair in Colac.
anyway, we drove back via Colac and Geelong back to Melbourne. and it was time to meet up with Junkai, who used to stay in hall too. but he’s on exchange and UMel.
casinos are no good for you! haha, but it was nice to have a look anyway.
and well, it was time for dear’s birthday surprise! i must say it was quite screwed because
1) i didn’t finish my dinner fast enough for me to siam halfway during dinner
2) the haircut next door was too expensive, thus not allowing me to buy extra time to buy the cake and stuff for dear (and also i couldn’t get back to the hostel earlier)
3) dear’s mum was like “aiyah buy cake only…” omg! haha. boohoo so everything was leaked out!
but dear was still a good sport about it and waited in the tv room while i got the room ready, thanks to the help of dear’s parents of course :)
i hope dear dear liked the surprise anyway :)
and my fave photos of the birthday surprise?
nice with all the balloons everywhere right?
then dear went to do “lub dub” like a beating heart. he looked super cute and it was super sweet la! i decided to imitate!
alright, so that was the last night. dear and i went to watch “40 year old virgin” on my laptop, while drinking alcohol. and goodness knows why.. but i was drunk on bacardi!! sia la. this is so damn embarrassing. luckily there weren’t many people around. this is seriously my first time being drunk sia. my head was heavy! :(
okay, went to Melbourne airport in the morning, and we’re off to Singapore :)
oh, and guess what i saw there?
porsche cayman!
nice! (not the colour though. i don’t really fancy this colour)
alright, so there.. i’m done with my aussie trip. satisfied nx?
for more (and larger) photos, go to my facebook account :)
i hate
how freaking ugly people are. not physical looks i mean.
i mean the heart, the mind, the soul.
no longer is there a gracious society. it’s now so polluted and dirty. i don’t even like living in it anymore.
i know
just how much you love me. just by what you did yesterday. i can’t say much details, because i wouldn’t want to get you into trouble of any kind.. but. i know dear. i really do.
no one would ever do that for me.. except you.
i love you so much!
aussie 08 with dear dear!
alright. due to the request of nx, my relation.. i am supposed to update! hahaha. so here i am. think i will put up collages (with the help of picasa).. then probably just talk abt 1 fave photo of each place.. okie? hahha.
alright, so we started off the trip from cairns..
dear couldn’t dive cos of the medicine he was taking.. so i had to do diving alone instead. and dear went off for snorkelling.. :X
Great Barrier Reef is indeed a beautiful place. although the journey there wasn’t very pretty.. considering i puked something like 5 times cos the waves were too freaking choppy! and the worst experience was when i threw my barf bag into the sea.. the wind was too strong, there wasn’t enough barf.. and the bag just somehow came back on board.. and spilled open!! thank goodness no one was splashed or else… eew!!
anyway, disgusting matters aside.. and here are the photos! :)
anyway i accompanied dear to do snorkelling on the second trip into the sea.. cos.. it’s about the company that matters right? it was really nice snorkelling around, hand in hand, looking at beautiful corals and animals in the sea.. bliss..
okie, a photo of us snorkelling together.. with the sea turtle!!
well after cairns we took a domestic flight to brisbane.. i think it’s a charming hostel, cos you’ve got the whole brisbane city view right beneath you. and the drinks (cos they have happy hour) was pretty cheap, by aussie standards. i think it was about 4 AUD or something for spirits.. not too bad i must say. we had bacardi + lemonade. nice :)
and here’s a really cute sign at the hostel that sent me into bouts of laughter!
we met up with hw’s cousin, yueying that night..
really nice girl to chat with :)
after brisbane was surfers paradise..
we stayed at a place called surf n sun backpackers.. and it was like 100m away from the sea! just walk out of the gate, cross the road.. and voila! the beach right beneath your eyes!
isn’t it just beautiful? the wind was extremely strong though. i was trying to read the map and it got stuck onto my face! :(
our feet together :)
anyway i took this photo for dear. seeing how cool it looks i asked him to help me take too.. and guess what he did?
me: hey! why didn’t you take me with the other building?
dear: cos no one will believe that you are the same height as me.
diaoz!
well after that we drove to port macquarie, stopping at byron bay on the way to get lunch.
and well, this is our hostel at port macquarie.
beautiful place right? pity we had no time to go for a swim.. but anyway, the weather was too cold to swim in either. this was quite an eventful drive, cos we hit a kangaroo at Wooli Rd!! oh no! lesson learnt was that never to drive at night (cos highways in aussie have no street lamps, unlike in sgp).. and always always buy insurance! haha.
well after that we drove to sydney, stopping at hunter valley for a while for lunch. hunter valley is famous for its wine and cheese :)
brie was good! so was this marinated frommage blanc :)
okay, and off to sydney :)
the first night we met up with joo!!!
i haven’t seen joo in ages, so.. it was really good meeting up! i miss you loads babe! i know one night wasn’t enough.. but oh well. maybe we can have a sleepover again in december or something okay?? don’t worry, you’re welcome to stay at my place.
anyway, there’s missy the dog below..who’s obsessed with catching the ball! the funniest part is when you throw the ball backwards. then she will pause and have a puzzled look on her face… before running past you to catch the ball. and she jumps really really high! dear says the she’s obsessed with the ball… just like how i’m obsessed with him. muahahahha.
we went for a sydney day tour the next day even though i was pretty familiar with sydney. hahaha. but anyway.. i don’t regret going cos it was pretty good :) especially the featherdale wildlife park! don’t you think wombats are so darn cute? and kookaburra!! it was like a fur ball sitting on the tree. hahah!
alright. tired to continue already. shall stop here okay? next stop, kangaroo valley :)
i’m back :)
haha. finally! hmm, supposed to blog about my aussie trip.. but oh man.. i’m so lazy!! haven’t even finished uploading the photos on facebook yet. lol. i have like close to 3000 photos for this trip.. and.. hmm. i think my uploading limit will definitely be reached if i try to upload every single photo..
***
so.. oh well, i’ll put this off till i at least finish uploading my photos on facebook la :)
***
to joo: it was great meeting up with you! and aporto is good! though not so much of the chilli sauce! hahaa. and it was so freaking cold thanks to the staff who adjusted the door such that we would get the full blast of the wind :( but nevertheless it was good catching up with you!
to nx and hl: meet up soon okay?
