twitter can increase your intelligence

so i started using twitter a couple of weeks ago because of an instructor that i want to follow at unlv. i saw this and thought it was pretty interesting: using twitter inreases intelligence art of seeing the divine blog

i have to admit, twitter can get pretty addicting. i'm beginning to like it better than facebook since facebook changed their layout again.

typealyzer

what does your blog say about you? this is pretty interesting. according to typealyzer, i am:

The entertaining and friendly type. They are especially attuned to pleasure and beauty and like to fill their surroundings with soft fabrics, bright colors and sweet smells. They live in the present moment and don´t like to plan ahead - they are always in risk of exhausting themselves.

The enjoy work that makes them able to help other people in a concrete and visible way. They tend to avoid conflicts and rarely initiate confrontation - qualities that can make it hard for them in management positions.

spring is here!


last year, i had the gardeners plant some fruit trees in the back yard. throughout the winter, all the leaves fell from the trees and since it has been really cold here in vegas, i never stepped out of the back door. last week, i opened the blinds (first time in like 3 months) and was surprised to see pretty pink flowers and little sprouts from the plum tree! i wonder if i'll get any fruits this summer...
