Right side vs. Left side

Posted by Ryan Barnes under Creativity, Imagination, People, Thought, Useful Tips

This is a test to see which side of the brain you use more. We all use both sides, but there is a significant amount of difference between the two. Use this image as the test. Which direction do you see the dancer moving, is she spinning clockwise, or counter-clockwise? Please leave a comment on what you see.

If you see her spinning clockwise, then you use your right side more, if not… then you use the left side more. One important thing though, is are you able to see her spin in either direction. If you’re not used to doing this, it can be difficult. One trick would be to hold two sheets of paper up so that you only see her foot, and only her foot. Make sure you leave out the shadow too. Then try to picture you drawing a circle in the opposite direction her foot is spinning. Eventually you should be able to see her foot reverse directions.. then slowly increase what you can see of her. After you’ve done this a few times, try to do it without blocking any of the image. It is a GREAT mental workout!

You know, I knew they existed, and I knew that our troops were in Iraq. But I never knew that this was so huge and was something they had to deal with. Good thing they have some actual buildings to take shelter in. I heard they can be pretty devastating to anybody caught in one.

Harry Potter’s Hermione turns 18 (in real life)

May 4th, 2008 | 3 Comments »

So this is actually sort of old news, but it’s noteworthy. Emma Watson (aka Hermione from Harry Potter) turned 18 on the 28th of April. While to some this may seem nothing of importance, when you turn 18 you are considered an adult. Thusly by turning 18, she now has full access to her $20 million dollars that she earned by acting in all 5 of the Harry Potter movies. Not so bad if you ask me! She’s already set for life (as long as she is able to manager her money.)

Anyways, I just hope that she does not turn into another stupid celebrity and destroy her career and or life (Macaulay Culkin, Brittany Spears, <insert random drug addicted movie star here>).

So aside from it being her birthday, I am pretty excited about the upcoming two new Harry Potter movies. From what my friends tell me, they are glad they split the final book into two movies rather than cram and clip most of the book into 2 hours (cough cough Order of cough Phoenix).
