type A


have u ever have a conversation in head?i do all the time (does not mean that i need help)...anyway, i was in the shower when I had this glorious conversation about personalities...it’s not about eccentrism or any type of personalities but a group of personalities that identifies a person...type A as opposed to type B...have u eve r heard of these?a type A person is known to be a high achiever, aggressive, has a temper and meticulous...


this type A personality is very well-known in the clinical world...this type of personality is one of precursors of a lot of cardiovascular related diseases and stress (some agree and some not but let’s put things in perspective here...read more on wiki)...thus, what does this signifies (everything has been very straightforward and bit stodgy so far)?this brings me to my next question...am i one?


ah funnily i can pick and choose which symptoms of type A that i have...i can say that i am a high achiever…about 10 years ago…but now, i may accept that i may not achieve as high as possible (but still feel a bit distressed and depressed about it)…do i cry over a B (or C or fail for that matter)?the answer is a no…but do i keep thinking about it, the thought keep on recycling like a hamster running on its wheel, feeling like i wish i can jump off grafton bridge?yup, most definitely…am i suicidal?i’d like to think not but sometimes the thought creeps on my head as i feel like the biggest loser on earth (well most of us humans will feel like this one this one time or another, loser-feeling, not suicidal!if u are seriously feeling suicidal, seek help!)...


i can safely say i am meticulous (though not obsessively, no obssesive-compulsive behavior for me!)...i make a list for almost everything in my little life...list of things i need to do everyday (updated daily), daily budget (updated when expenses occur), yearly budget, list of boxes of stuff i put in storage every year and the list goes on and on (pardon the pun)...my life is said to be ruled by lists...weirdest thing is i rarely make lifelong plan or even short term plans (or rarely stick to them)...if say, i plan to go to the US this winter, there is a strong chance that i will not follow through....


do i have a temper?my whole family can testify to that...but i'm pretty sure 90% of my friends and acquaintances will say that i'm such a 'sweet-natured' person (though i myself will say that i'm no sweet person, i bitch in my head!hahaha)...i rarely lose my temper in public (thus my 'normalness' persona, as opposed to my 'crazy angry bitch' persona witnessed frequently by my poor siblings)...i will usually keep mum for a long while if i get angry when i'm with my friends (as opposed to a bullet-train-speed talker that everyone prays will stop talking asap)....


so with all this material evidence presented, can i safely label myself as a type A person (are u with me so far, or have u skipped most of this post merrily until this part thus have no eartly idea what i'm yapping about?)?i'd say nah...i'm not obsessive about being number one...i can still control my temper (most of the time, mind u don't test me, i can be vicious, meow!)...that meticulous bit, yup i am but so do a lot of people out there (though truthfully i do arrange my clothes according to type and colours in my closet)


are u a type A?be careful...don't break a blood vessel in ur brain!muahahaha (evil laughter)...
