a return to blogging

because i am vain, bored and brain dead (in that order), i decided to google my name and i came across this blog. it's really funny to read old entries and to remember the thoughts that i had a year or two ago. things have changed like crazy over the past year or so. let me point a few things out:

1. i'm working now as an international graduate in standard chartered (a year and almost 3 months now)
2. i'm president of aiesec philippines
3. i haven't been veg-ing, couch potato-ing, or lounging in front of the tv so much. instead i'm either working or partying.

anywho... i came across this colorquiz thing i took a couple of years ago and i decided to take it again. it's really funny how the test results are actually almost spot on.
