Year of the Tiger

I discovered recently after chatting with a friend that I was born in the year of the tiger being 27 December 1986.Now I personally am not into all that horoscope and zodiac stuff but I decided to read about it anyway, and I have to say I was reasonably surprised with my Zodiac sign.
People born between 9 February 1986 - 28 January 1987 are Fire Tigers.
Wikipedia says the following about tigers:

Tiger people are difficult to resist, for they are magnetic characters and their natural air of authority confers a certain prestige on them. They are tempestuous yet calm, warm-hearted yet fearsome, courageous in the face of danger yet yielding, soft and mysterious in unexpected places. They enjoy a life full of challenges and unexpected events, like visiting unusual places and meeting interesting or outstanding people. Other people in their area are easily attracted by the tiger's enthusiasm and way of life. Tigers find pleasure in the unpredictable, and while other people would rather make a backward step, they are not afraid to explore the new and unusual. But it is not that simple to interest the Tiger. What they really need is first-hand experience. Usually open and frank, these people are likely to withdraw and can be aggressive when trapped. As soon as the Tiger has regained their sense of security their confidence also returns, enabling them to set out once more. These people usually tend to trust their instincts, though there is another side of their personality, which assesses situations thoughtfully before they launch any actions. Their friends usually secretly admire their determination and optimism, though sometimes may find it complicated to share the Tiger's enthusiasm and can be pushed away and left behind. Although Tigers can be courageous and generous friends, if they are not able to achieve what they want, they can be inflexible and self-centered. So if your friend was born in the year of the Tiger, there will be highs and lows in your friendship, but the friendship itself will remain firm.

As you can imagine after reading this I was pretty pleased,especially considering my brother's sign of the zodiac is a rat ;o).

According to Wiki or whomever wrote the article on wiki Tigers have the following Traits:

Positive Traits:

Independent, brave, confident, dynamic, intense, energetic, sacrificing, faithful
Negative Traits

:Moody, reckless, hot-headed, selfish, impatient, impulsive, opinionated, rebellious

Also according to that person the following jobs are suited for Tigers:

Entrepreneur, military officer, politician, musician, writer, poet, artist, theater director, biological and environmental engineer, stockbroker, athlete, film star, trade union leader, company director, stunt person, explorer, and lawyer.


Well basically I like it its good enough for me, I mean after all it could be worse couldn't it?
If you are bored or want to know about the zodiac signs and what they mean go on wikipedia.

Music on the blog

I am Leaving on a jetplane

Yep made my mind up I am going to go back to the motherland, Belgium, on the 31st of May.
Now I only need to book my flight and send some stuff back to home and then I am leaving on a jetplane and I don't know if I'll be back again.
One thing is sure though, I will miss Ireland I had a awesome time in Ireland and I want to express my gratitude to all those people from here foreigners or natives alike for the great time they gave me.Before I came to Ireland I was quiet a boring person to be honest, not that I am a big party animal or something, well a wee bit, but I had a good craic in Ireland as they say here.So here's to the the people,no matter what their nationality might be,who made me feel so welcome in Ireland and with whom I shared a lot of good craics.
I will post some pictures of my beloved Ireland soon and from the good parties I had in Ireland.

Welcome to Mr T's Blog

This is a bit of a experiment for me.I was quiet bored one late night and decided to make a blog.
I have however no idea what so ever of what I am doing so this might be a dreadful experience.
I am going to try this out and see how it works out for me and for those who visit this blog I apologise for the future possible lack of posts but there is a first time for everything. It is my intent to slowly fill the blog with stuff that are either interesting or funny or sad or if I really don't have anything to say or write most probably boring.Come visit the blog soon and I hope you'll enjoy it then.
