The Right Brain vs Left Brain test

The Right Brain vs Left Brain test ... do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic detail oriented facts rule words and language present and past math and science can comprehend knowing acknowledges order/pattern perception knows object name reality based forms strategies practical safe

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses feeling "big picture" oriented imagination rules symbols and images present and future philosophy & religion can "get it" (i.e. meaning) believes appreciates spatial perception knows object function fantasy based presents possibilities impetuous risk taking

I use more of my Right Side. When I focus on the doll, I can make her move anti-clockwise, but my first glance at her was clockwise. This test fascinated me because everything under "Right Brain Functions" it true about me. =]

Rascal Flatts-My Wish

Someone dedicated this song to me a long time ago. Whenever I listen to it, I feel happy and warm.

Tired, I sat against the market wall and looked up. The walls were abnormally high for a market and there were spiked horns on the very top. First thing that came to my mind was a castle. Smiling to myself, I closed my eyes. Everything went black, except for a piercing red light that kept on penetrating the darkness. Suddenly I found myself sitting against a magnificent castle wall. Looking around, I saw a massive green field surrounding the castle with a narrow trail leading to the entrance. Men in armors stood on both sides of the wooden castle door, guarding it. There was a blacksmith a few feet away forging something that looked very much like a mace. As I stood up, I got knocked out by something very hard. The last thing I saw was a blurry image of a knight waving a hammer.

Waking up,I felt my rigid body laying on a cold stone floor. I ached all over. How much time had passed by? I couldn't tell.

Bipolarity

Bipolarity. I was reading about it earlier because of an essay I've got to do. Anyways, I read that bipolars usually feel like crap. Someone with a bipolar disorder gets all the feelings that we never want to experience: sadness, anxiety, GUILT, hopelessness, self-loathing, and isolation. I absolutely hate feeling guilty. They also get aggressive at times. So basically, it sucks to be bipolar because you're always depressed and you get unpredictable mood changes. Bipolars also get angry real fast, but I love being angry. ^_^

So there was this part about bipolarity that caught my attention. Hypomanic episodes. Hypomania is generally a less extreme state than mania- i.e. you laugh at things that aren't funny or you go a little psycho. Anyways, when bipolars experience hypomanic episodes, they start thinking in a extremely clever way and their energy increases. They also get brilliant ideas.

I think that when you become hypomanic, you use more of your brain. I would love to have hypomanic episodes. I'm not bipolar, but last night, I think I got something like a hypomanic episode. I felt that I could outsmart anyone and I became very sharp. It's gone today though. I wish I could feel like that more often. It was a wonderful sensation.

~*.Dreaming.*~
Right when my head touched the pillow and I fell asleep, I found myself in my aunt's house. I was standing behind a closed door, eaves dropping on my parents. They seemed to be planning on getting my aunt and her husband drunk and then robbing them. Bewildered, I went straight to where my aunt and her husband were sitting watching TV and drinking. I bent low next to my aunt's husband and told him that my parents were going to nick them tonight. "NICK US?" my aunt's husband asked out loud. I tried to shush him, but the damage had already been done. My parents had overhead him. Laughing heartily, he shooed me away. Suddenly and out of nowhere men with guns started coming into the house. I ran for my life. As I was running down the hall, a man with a rifle was about to shoot me. "GET DOWN," my friend ordered me from behind. I obeyed and my friend finished the guy off. I ran into the ruined living room and another guy, grinning stupidly, started to shoot. I put my hands in front of my face as if to use them as a shield but the bullets went straight through my hands and into my forehead. The cops started yelling for the ambulance. As they lowered me onto the hospital bed, I found myself sitting in Starbucks drinking coffee with my friend.
The End of Another Exciting Adventure.
