The Counselor (Swirve personality test)
Counselors are both rare and unique. You have a deep understanding of others and can read people as well as anyone. Sometimes, you're not even sure how you do it. You're almost psychic! Your ability to understand what others are going through makes you a trusted friend and the person that people love to confide in when things aren't well. Your friends consider you a very important part of their lives.
While others are more than willing to open up to you, you're not quite so outgoing about your own life, and oftentimes, you may not even want to hear about others'. You are an incredibly emotional person -- Counselors are maybe the most emotional of the bunch -- and hearing about others in pain causes you pain. For that reason, you can at times shy away from contact and interaction to maintain your own stability.
When at your best, you can make a huge impact in people's lives by supporting them through tough times. You also tend to be influential with your friends because of perceived depth of your understanding of others. If you're in need of money, feel free to use your near-psychic abilities to start a 1-800 Psychic Hotline.
Possible Careers: Therapist, Tutor
Eh. The results suck.

Sorry for not blogging again for these 2 days. Wednesday went for Homerun movie. Touching, but still did not exceed the power of the original Children of Heaven. But sure to attract a lot of Singaporeans then hit box office. Well, in Singapore. I don't think it can make the same impact as xiao3 hai2 bu4 ben4 hitting other countries in Asia box offices. Remarkable that Jack Neo actually went all out to Malaysia to film this movie. Found that xiang4 yun2's part very small, as small as the gangster fighting police one. LOL. Thursday do a lot of weights. Got new noob on the block, called Zhe Xian from 2K. Then today, new noob from 2K called dunno wad shun something. Gee, 2K mobilisation. Today training very good, very slack, more spiked balls, Ritzley not very shuang at me. Hah. Who cares about that anti-social frichendu? Anyway, Joph asked me about music formats and recording. Well, u found the RIGHT guy. Let me explain on this stuff.
Music Formats
Best Quality - WAV (2000-4000 kbps) (Usually 3000kbps)
Best Compressed - OGG (0-500 kbps) (Usually 100-192kbps)
Commonly Compressed - MP3 (0-500kbps) (Usually 88-192kbps)
Best used for websites - MID (0-100kbps) (Usually 5kbps)
Others aren't worth mentioning at all lah. Of all, Ogg Vorbis is the best. It is well compressed than mp3 and sounded more better than mp3 even though its bitrate is lower, coz it employed another new technology. Lots of games, especially by Eidos Interactive, are using this format. Ogg Theora, the successor to Vorbis would be out in the fall or early next year. But then, Theora is PATENTED, means $$, but Vorbis ain't.
Recording
Factors
- Average bitrate, constant bitrate or variable bitrate (variable is best)
- Stereo or mono (Stereo is normally selected for u already as it is WAY better than mono, mono damn dull)
- Frequency (of course larger the number is better lah, but it probably don't matter much if you have an equalizer)
