My Sister sent me this Image that is meant to see whether you’re more Left or Right Brained. So…take a look at the image below, and take note of what direction she is rotating.

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of your brain.
If anti-clockwise, then you use more of the left side of your brain.

Personally, the first time she was turning Clockwise. Then just today, she was spinning Anti-Clockwise. BUT then I concentrated and could make her spin the other way. I think I’ve always been more Right Brained, but possess the functions of both, and change between the two a lot. I don’t know how accurate or what scientific basis this has LOL but it was a little fun! Below is a list of the Left & Right Brain functions. Let me know what you came up with, and if you were able to change her direction at will!

Left Brain Functions:

  • Uses Logic
  • Detail Oriented
  • Facts Rule
  • Words & Language
  • Present & Past
  • Math & 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 & Images
  • Present & Future
  • Philosophy & Religion
  • Can “Get It” (Meaning)
  • Believes
  • Appreciates
  • Spatial Perception
  • Knows Object Function
  • Fantasy Based
  • Presents Possibilities
  • Impetuous
  • Risk taking

Wow…just wow. Monty Oum is a game fan video maker, who became famous for “Haloid”, which pit Samus Aran against Master Chief, in an epic battle. However, this post is on his new fan video named Dead Fantasy I, and I just watched it and was totally blown away! This time it is female Final Fantasy characters against female Dead or Alive characters! You just need to watch it to understand how amazing it is. Right at the end, when the last combatant was revealed, I was expecting a different character, but I am sure this was done on purpose, but the choice was freaking awesome and I can’t wait for part II! I will put Haloid below as well. Monty Oum is brilliant, and he hasn’t even gone professional yet. Enjoy!

I was shown this cool site where you can generate an avatar of yourself, which has quite a wide range of options to really personalise it.

Here is a time lapsed video of an Amanita Muscaria mushroom, which looks like the mushroom from Super Mario Bros. games.
