1 Quiz, 1 Book, 1 Extension

Posted in: 2021 posts | About Blogging | blog images | Books | online quiz | Online Shopping Bag

I was looking for online quizzes randomly on Blogthings and found this.

"Are You an Individualist or a Communitarian?"
I think I talked about this before with Mel-chan (yoohoo I'm bringing this back!) last year. Or something like this.

The result I got is pretty much what I expected.
You tend to believe that the individual is paramount, and that means you.
You are a huge advocate for personal liberty and freedom. You think people should be left alone as much as possible.

You are a big fan of live and let live - even if someone may be acting foolish. People have to be responsible for their own destinies.
You think there is too much interference in every day life and too many busybodies. You don't try to get into anyone's business, and you don't want them in yours!
Nothing much to add to that... but I'm interested in one of the questions.

This:
People who are successful should:
    Enjoy their wealth
    Give back to those who helped them along the way
    Be as generous as possible to those in need
I realised something. If this is me few years ago, I would pick the third answer. But today, I chose the first answer. I think that shows something about my current state of mind. I want to say it's the dark side thing but there's nothing dark about this. It's your success, why would the others matter? 

I'm seeing this in a very general way so I'm sure there'll be exceptions. Of course, to me, the second answer is correct too. Heck, if you don't have to pick, all these three are doable at the same time. "All of the above" is the correct answer.

I received the book I purchased during 3.3 sale today. Short stories again (haah I keep experimenting) but apparently these stories happened [fictionally?] in KK (I think), so that got me interested. 

That day, I was just searching for Sabahan blogs directory (we use to have giuk.net, a blog aggregator, in the past) and I stumbled upon the Goodreads page for this book. Then I searched for the book on Shopee. Purchased it 2 hours before the 3.3 ends. 

Like... how do I keep falling into rabbit holes like this? *sigh*


Anyway, speaking of blog directory/aggregator, I got mine listed in "Bloglist Me" recently. It's hard to find certain blogs nowadays (Google used to have a specialized search site for that but it's gone), so sites like that are helpful. Sometimes I just want to read blogs like the old days. My friend called them "old school" blogs. I like those kind of blogs.

Toby for Chrome. I've been using this extension for several years and it helped me manage my bookmarks in Chrome browser. Recently, I'm thinking of stopping to rely on this. I want to use less extensions, if possible, because I think they make my Chrome lag. *sigh* So to do that, I have to clean up my bookmarks.
