Ok enough with the quites already, what did I start?
Quite, quite.
What is it with humans any way has any one got answers to the orginal
questions any way? Like where are the other tests? After confirming their
existence perhaps Simon could tell all?
It's on www.spark.com(?), the site of the original test. On my browser
(Micro$oft Internet Exploder) the other tests appear in the bottom left
corner of the top page.
Oh, but you wanted me to "tell all".
Which brings me on to something I was thinking about a couple of days ago,
what are you yes you looking for in life?
Who me? You really want to know? Are you sure? Have you signed the
disclaimer?
Well, sanitised version for public consumption...
1) I want a chance to express myself artistically. That is currently outlet
through my writing, through roleplaying, and sometimes through my
engineering work.
2) I don't want to struggle with material things. (This is the advantage of
a job. You can wave money at material problems and they go away.)
3) I don't want to struggle with emotional hassles. (This is the advantage
of choosing who I live with - and of something like fifteen years
experience in successfully sharing love with someone.)
4) I want a stable family life. I have some quite strange requirements in
my mind for stable family life. Further details on request - but not on
list. But it includes words like "love", like "forever", like "sharing"
- and like "children".
5) I want a chance to rule the^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H make a difference in the
wider world.
6) Err...
7) That's it.
I am looking for only two things, Love (real love not unrequited or any
shit like that) and happyness.. The only other point is that money could
do alot to oil the wheels.
Money does less than you might think. Take it from me. Over a really quite
paltry figure, money is "sufficient". If you are insecure, you can find it
hard to recognise this, but it is true.
Consider an S where S is enough money to do what you want. At the moment,
I'm currently earning something between 2S and 3S, and frankly I don't care
which. Sometimes I get bank statements with big numbers in them, and the
accountant whinges at me to spend some of it. It makes saving real easy,
but other than that it's irrelevent.
Students, as far as I can gather, have a smaller "S", because living as a
student is cheaper than the way I live. But nevertheless you people still
seem to get about S/2. Some of you, caught between the vagaries of student
lives and unhelpful parents, seem to go down to about S/5. That's bad.
Does that mean that I am more happy than you? No, I'm probably about the
same. Good days and bad days ... same old story.
Someday I'll tell you want happens when you grow up and understand life -
but I'm still waiting to find out. But then so's my uncle, and he's in his
seventies. "When you grow up you'll understand." Yeah right. I reckon it's
a con that parents pull over on children.
"But she wants all the pretty boys beside her"
"To write some pretty words to guide her"
"To tell her that they love her body as well as her mind"
"She wants some kind of sign"
"A sign of Love"
"Oh never mind"
"You're not her kind"
