View Point


Underneath, originally uploaded by King Kieran.

I am not sure if anyone reads this but if you do, I am sure that over the last few days you will have heard all about the Big Brother saga with Jade Goody and the racist comments. Well as I was driving along today I heard about another race problem that has come on a Channel 4 show - Shipwrecked. A young girl has made racist comment. I do not believe that this girl is racist but more small minded and rather a sheltered life. I am actually straying off the point I am trying to get to. A caller made great point on Radio 1 which was 'this is reality TV and this is how some people are'.

So really the question is if people want to be so involved in reality TV do they want it to be real or do they want a censored and fluffy version? If we ask to see reality then we should expect to get reality even if it is something that will offend us or make us feel uncomfortable.

I am not a fan of this type of TV but I do think that if people want to watch it then they should expect realiness instead of a manufactored glorified lab rat test, like Big Bothered, opps Big Brother

My Intelligence

I should reall y find something better to do with my time!


Your Dominant Intelligence is Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence

You are naturally athletic and coordinated, good at making your mind and body work together.
Sports are fun and easy for you, especially those requiring good hand - eye coordination.
There's also a good chance you're a great dancer, or good at expressing yourself through body language.
You learn best by doing, and you feel like you've always got to be moving (even if it's just your hands).

You would make a good athlete, physical education teaches, dancer, actor, firefighter, or artisan.

A promise made


Home Coming, originally uploaded by King Kieran.

Today I saw on the BBC news website and article about Jono the breakfast DJ in London.

He has moved hima and his family back home to look after his elderly mother. It was the dying wish of his fatehr that he always take care of her. As I read it I was amazed by the fact that his family means so much to him. In an age where family life is not a priority and values seem long forgotten, he has chosen to uphold them at a huge cost.

It gives hope that maybe we can bring back these values, that they are still present in many people.

I know from being away form my family my love for them grew. We had to work at building real relationships. We actually started to talk about our feelings and became more open. It may have taken thousands of miles but it was worth every moment for what I have now.

Through the Wall


Brick work, originally uploaded by King Kieran.

Last night I took a big step in my New Years resolution and joined the gym! It was a proud moment, made even better by the fact that they waivered my £30 joining fee, how cool.

So now that I have taken the great step, I now need to take the even bigger one and start going.

Fear of the not I will be an english versin of Arnie soon!

Nealry tested

I have nearly tested most areas of my life, here is another one!

You Are A Fun Friend

You're the one who keeps your group laughing
And you've always got an idea for something fun to do
The party's not complete without you
And you wouldn't miss it for the world

More Cool Tests

These tests are cool and also seem rather accurute.

Your Values Profile

Loyalty:

You value loyalty highly.
You're completely devoted to your friends and family.
Even if they totally screw up, you're still there for them.
Just make sure they're equally loyal to you!

Honesty:

You don't really value honesty.
You do value getting your way, no matter what.
And if a little lying is required to do that, no problem.
A few white lies never hurt anyone (at least, that's what you tell yourself!)

Generosity:

You value generosity a fair amount.
You are all about giving, as long as there's some give and take.
Supportive and kind, you don't mind helping out a friend in need.
But you know when you've given too much. You have no problem saying "no"!

Humility:

You value humility a fair amount.
You tend to be an easy going, humble person.
But occasionally your ego takes over.
You have a slight competitive streak - and the need to be the best.

Tolerance:

You value tolerance highly.
Not only do you enjoy the company of those very different from you...
You do all that you can to seek it out interesting and unique friends.
You think there are many truths in life, and you're open to many of them.

Extrvert or not?

A little test I tried this morning. Not a bad result!



You Are 90% Extrovert, 10% Introvert

You are as outgoing as they come
The life of the party, you're friends with everyone
You're a people person, and you are quite the entertainer
You love being around a crowd and acting spontaneously
