i need scrivener.
Jun. 8th, 2008 07:51 pmI'm churning out articles for the freshie mag (hello freshies I would like to know what kind of tone you'd guys would like to hear in a freshie-mag, plus short and concise vs long and detailed - which is your pick?) and I am wanting Scrivener very badly. I need the corkboard. I need a place to store my snippets and research for food reviews and have easy access to them without hitting alt-tab so often.
I need a fucking Mac. (I've been brainwashing myself with Mac tutorials and holy shit you know, I might actually be more productive with a Mac! Because I won't be waiting for Vista to stop hanging on me.) I have been lusting after a MacBook Pro - because it's a powerful beast and it's sleek. But in any event that I can't get one, I will be satisfied with a MacBook - preferably in black. (Though NUS's notebook scheme doesn't usually offer black macbooks. And I want to purchase my Mac with NUS because they include Microsoft Office and Adobe CS and I'm cheapo like that.)
In anycase, I owe my readers - the very handful of them - an update about SMUN and other happenings but I have to finish writing 3 articles first before I start to write selfishly for myself.
EDIT:
Gaaaaah. I only just realized that Gakuensai is over!? And I totally forgot to place an order for the anthology set!? OMG. I FAIL. SO BAD. :\

Analytical Thinker (AT)
(Just visiting? Take the free test and determine your personality type!)
The analytical thinker has little interest in everyday concerns - he is always a little like an “absent-minded professor” whose home and workplace are chaotic and who only concerns himself with banalities such as bodily needs when it becomes absolutely unavoidable. The acknowledgement of his work by others does not play a great role for him; in general, he is quite independent of social relationships and very self-reliant. He therefore often gives others the impression that he is arrogant or snobby - especially because he does not hesitate to speak his mind with his often harsh (even if justified) criticism and his imperturbable self-confidence. Incompetent contemporaries do not have it easy with him. But whoever succeeds in winning his respect and interest has a witty and very intelligent person to talk to. A partner who amazes one with his excellent powers of observation and his very dry humour.
It takes some time before an analytical thinker makes friends, but then they are mostly friends for life. He only needs very few people around him. Their most important ability is to be a match for him and thus give him inspiration. Constant social obligations quickly get on his nerves; he needs a lot of time alone and often withdraws from others. His partner must respect this and understand that this is not due to the lack of affection. Once he has decided in favour of a person, the analytical thinker is a loyal and reliable partner. However, one cannot expect romance and effusive expressions of feelings from him and he will definitely forget his wedding anniversary. But he is always up to a night spent with stimulating discussions and a good glass of wine!
