How observant are you?
C+ |

You tend to notice the big things in life…
But the details aren’t exactly your forte |
pretty much right on i guess. even in my studying and remembering of information i recall the basic concepts and big picture analysis, but the little details escape me. have to say, this quiz was not easy! try not to cheat if you take it. i need to work on being more observant.

| You Are 60% Boyish and 40% Girlish |
You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.
Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.
You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don’t actively fight them.
You’re just you. You don’t try to be what people expect you to be. |
i am me. take it or leave it. gender roles out the door. if it needs to be done, somebody has to do it. rock, paper, scissors? what do people expect me to be? i guess i dont do the expected. sometimes i do though. although sometimes the expected is conflicting with personal goals. a little of both on that aspect. i do get along with people, male or female. i feel like i can get along with anyone. at least i can if they are not antagonistic. i dont like pious people. some people believe themselves better than another only because they know they are not. jealousy is a driving force, insecurity too.

ever wonder why people choose the name they do or the avatar they do or whatever? maybe i’m just odd that way, but i do. lemme explain me.
first, why type in all lower case? well, just because i want to. i have to be formal in so many other aspects of my life, i just like not conforming to the rules when i ramble on about this or that.
second, what about the name? kontan? well, most know that i am happytchr on dj. not too difficult to figure out. well, i got tired of using that name so wanted to do something else. i was going thru a journal i kept and ran across the word kontan. kontan is haitian creole for happy. hence kontan jou that i often post…it means happy day. why haitian creole? several reasons, one i like languages and haitian creole is just fun. two, i went to haiti several years ago and it really had an impact on life. three, kontan is just a fun word and it fits me. i really try to be happy and seek the positive out of life. life is a lot more fun that way. so kontan it is.
third, why the butterfly? that just sort of happened and then escalated. at a motivational conference i had to attend with teaching the story of the monarch migration was told. wow, what a determined creature! butterflies are symbols of life, happiness, hope, and determination. all of these things i hold to. so butterfly it was. besides, they are pretty. i’m not too “fru-fru” so it is just one of my few “girlie” things.
that’s enough for the first blog attempt. who knows if i will keep this up. i get in moods to ramble sometimes so i just might! lol
kontan jou!
