Started off the day well with a trip to the gym! Then Master J's little friend came over for a play and a swim while I caught up with her mum. She is 27 weeks pregnant, it is going to be so exciting to have a newborn around again!! So we spent a bit of time in the pool. Master A was asleep the whole time - another 4 hour marathon. I have decided he does these marathon sleeps to get over 2 days of daycare, where he sleeps less than 1/2 his usual amount!!!
We chilled in the aircon this afternoon and watched Happy Feet. It is great that Master J will sit and watch kiddies movies now - pity Master A is now hitting his straps with his activity and noise level :-S
Took off to the shops late this arvo and had dinner out at the foodcourt.
PAD today courtesy of Master A. I have been trying all week to get an "eye" shot of either of the boys, but they move around far too much. So after he had eaten his lunch I gave him his cup to keep him occupied, while still in the highchair and I managed to get the macro of his eye! It is a bit grainy in the large size due to the high ISO (we were inside), but I am happy with it. I also got another that I couldn't resist :-)
I rang Chandler McCleod today to get feedback for the psychometric testing that I had for the job. I was pretty suprised at the ability results and the profile had me spot on!! These were the results:
Ability Results
- Abstract Reasoning (general knowledge, problem solving) - 89th Percentile (general population)
- Verbal Reasoning (how many big words you know - haha) - 94th Percentile (general population)
- Numerical Reasoning (how you deal with numbers and patterns) - 73rd Percentile (general population) He said that he would place this higher, because I was accurate. I answered 24 out of 34 questions and 22 were correct. So had I put my foot on the gas and answered them all I would have got most of them correct and a higher percentile!!
- Verbal Critical Thinking (conclusions, inferences etc) - 60th Percentile (management population)
Personality Profile
- Very driven & ambitious.
- Always continuing to develop.
- Strong initiative and self reliance.
- Adapt to the environment - so if in a professional environment will behave professionally, but at home will be very different (lol).
- Strong emotionally and resiliant, works well under stress
- Identifies and implements different ways of doing things - works efficiently
- Likes to see the big picture and look at things strategically then work out how to meet goals
- Lots of energy (lmao)
- Can get frustrated when getting into detail hinders progression of work and may overlook details in order to get things complete
- If not kept interested or motivated then I will look elsewhere for the motivation
- Not a naturally trusting person. It can take sometime to earn my trust, but once earned there is no problem
- Self imposed high expectations of myself and potentially others. Need to be realistic in all of these expectations
- Good communicator, but can be a force to be reckoned with (lol). Need to adjust style to suit people so as not to "railroad"
