What's the first thing you do when you get home from work?

Sleep...

Yesterday was the first day of the Chinese New Year. The Chinese year 4707 is the year of the ox. What's your Chinese zodiac animal and what does it say about you?

The Monkey is the most versatile sign of the Chinese zodiac. Such people are often inventors, plotters, entertainers and the creative geniuses behind anything ingenious, including mischief. They have natural quick-wittedness which enables them to understand what is happening and then make a right decision. Even during a conversation a person born in this year is aware of what is going on around him/her, and then makes a mental note of who said what and stores it away for future reference. In general, with their agile minds and multiple talents, monkey people can master any subject. They are reliable and honest people so that any secret is safe in their hands. These people are also honest in their dealings and are very good at problem-solving: knowing how to listen closely and work out solutions at the same time.

Although these people are trustworthy and unlikely to hurt someone out of spite, they would never let people escape if they have behaved badly or damaged a monkey's reputation. Their stamina and determination to achieve their main goals can make these people appear vain or manipulative. People born under this sign should be careful so they do not damage their friendships. It is important to remember for these people that it would be wiser sometimes not to pursue their goals and simply let things pass.

Monkeys have flexible principles and serene self-confidence so they are completely content; but they usually manage to complicate the lives of others. After yet another plan or project has gone wrong, they are seldom there to help clean up the disorder and confusion that they leave in their wake. Monkeys can handle that too; with their charm and persuasiveness they can make people believe that just knowing them is a privilege. The monkey person is most compatable with all animals.

If I have all the money and I can purchase any car, I'll probably get an 2008 Aston Martin DBS.

How do you feel about the results of the election?

I'm very impressed how the results were presented immediately. I just hope they can do it as well here in our country in the coming presidential elections since counting of votes extends from several weeks to months and the delayed the results are, the casualty increases.

What is your favorite thing to do on a rainy day?

I go out grab my umbrella and walk outside. I love going out if it's raining if I'm not that tired. Otherwise I just sleep and I easily doze off while listening to rain drops.

What word or phrase drives you absolutely nuts?
submitted by, revolt

There are a couple of words or phrases that drives me nuts whenever I'm in a conversation. One in particular is the word "wala" (nothing) combined with an evil grin. Another one is when you're asking something or in a middle of a conversation and then when the person that you're talking to had a hard time explaining things up, and uses up the phrase "you know" and I didn't get or don't have any idea of what he's trying to say.

How do you react when you're stressed?
Submitted by Deep Thinker

Stress? tell me about it. For me it's usually I keep quiet or I easily burst out in anger but most of the time I just keep quiet and try to find ways to remove stress which usually turn out to be a bit expensive.
