bored am i. i am bored. bored i be. i be bored.

took a test over at umbra.com. u design a room and your choice in furniture, decorations, etc, is suppose to reveal a little something. here's mine:

The Curtains:

Your Secrets

Your choice of the glimmering semi-transparent sheer reveals a personality with a flair for showmanship who prefers to let everything hang out. Privacy for you is not in the cards, or in the slot machine. One of the hardest things in life for you is to keep a secret. You are a risk-taker and gambler in your heart. Although you may never appear on-stage, you love the spotlight. The shimmer, the razzle and dazzle of the evening crowd leaves you intoxicated. Some might mistake you for an exhibitionist but that is a fallacy. Your fun-loving nature and smooth social skills help you glide effortlessly through many different social stratas! You are not worried about 'who knows what about you'. You just wish that other people would take a few chances and roll life's dice, like you.

Furniture: Your Lover

Your choice of the undulating reclining Q chaise, reveals a deep-seated need to find that one perfect individual, your soul-mate, for whom you were destined to spend your life. They must be open to new ideas and contemporary thought. You would enjoy a partner who will experiment with new positions, both at work and at home, to add variety to your relationship. With your ideal lover you would fit together like you were made for each other, interlocked in a passionate and tender embrace. But having a pragmatic nature, you recognize that sometimes you would want to pursue your own independent interests, so that when you rejoin, you would make a dynamic combination. It goes without saying that your ideal lover would radiate style and panache. (if only man! my boy's just a home body)

Frames: Your Relationships

The choice of Fira indicates a complex, multi-layered personality with multiple friends and family, who may appear cool at first glance but is actually fiery. At first glance the unconventional juxtaposition of your loved ones may be surprising, however the relationships are artfully balanced, keeping everyone in their right place. This indicates that you are a social person who wants it all -- and through disciplined efforts, gets it. (disciplined efforts?! *guffaws*)

Cans: Your Problems

Small, and sleek you confidently act like you’re ready to handle any problem. Your cocky street-wise demeanour boasts of industrial strength power, but in truth your metal is tested by problems of a more domestic nature. You are constantly being stepped on, but greet this behaviour with surprising aplomb and good-naturedness. Your generous, hard-working nature has left you open to everyone dumping their problems on you daily. While this would cause worry and stress for lesser mortals, you have accepted your lot in life with maturity and humility, understanding that other people's problems are bringing you one step closer to salvation.(*sings* hit me baby one more time)

Clocks: Your Future

Your future is that of a visionary, imagining scenarios for the next millennium. You may find yourself at home in an expansive industrial space, or marking time in a future warped out of a science fiction novel. Guard against your tendency for depression at your core. It is pronounced and evident to all. While this could cause consternation your off-beat sense of yourself redefines your concave, pillowy body as a life saving buoy fed solely on peanut butter thumbprint cookies. Your hands continually caress your external self causing others to accuse you of an inflated ego, but you know that time will pass and prove you to be right on.

Fun things: Your Moods

Your choice of the Meditative Mood indicates an introspective person who sets aside time each day for quiet reflection. However due to the 'busyness' of modern life this quiet refuge may take unusual forms. Rather than sitting cross-legged on an oriental carpet chanting 'OM' you may prefer to focus your energies on the hyponotic drone of the vacuum cleaner or on the repetitive motions of polishing furniture or washing windows with your Teardrop paper towel holder always near at hand. All the while chanting 'cleanliness is next to...'godliness!!

ah wells, so much for whiling away time. what to do what to do... *goes off to ponder*
