Here’s What Your Fingernails tell's About Your Personality [TEST]




data-adsbygoogle-status="done">

For centuries, people have claimed to be able to tell what someone’s personality is like, just by looking at a few basic physical features. Some believe that you can determine someone’s personality just by the length of their fingers! Some people find it very accurate and others think it’s a load of crap. However, regardless of what your opinions may be, there used to be an entire area of science dedicated to things like this. Phrenology was used to analyze a person’s personality based on the measurements of their skull. Listed below are interpretations of what the shape of your nails may reveal about your personality:
1. The vertically long nail.
You’re probably a real romantic. Even-tempered with a strange but wonderful imagination. You can be a perfectionist and easily overwhelmed. You see the little things that few notice. People really love you. You get along with most people.

The Top 10 Films of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival

After nearly two weeks of viewing some of the best cinema will have to offer this year, the 68th Cannes Film Festival has concluded. With Jacques Audiard‘s Dheepan taking the top jury prize of Palme d’Or (full list of winners here), we’ve set out to wrap up our experience with our 10 favorite films from the festival, which extends to the Un Certain Regard and Directors’ Fortnight side bars.
It should be noted that Mad Max: Fury Road and Inside Out, which both screened out of competition, were among some of our favorites of the festival, but considering they’ll be getting enough attention thanks to their marketing campaigns and wide release, we’ve elected to give

What do colors tell about personality

White: Symbolic of purity, innocence and naivete, white has strong connotations of youth and purity. If you are an older person, your preference for white could indicate a desire for perfection and impossible ideals, maybe an attempt to recapture lost youth and freshness. It may also symbolize a desire for simplicity or the simple life.
Red: The color of strength, health, and vitality, Red is often the color chosen by someone outgoing, aggressive, vigorous and impulsive—or someone who would like to be! It goes with an ambitious nature but those who choose it can be abrupt at times, determined to get all they can out of life, quick to judge people and take sides. Red people are usually optimistic and can’t stand monotony; they are rather restless and not at all introspective, so they may be unaware of their own shortcomings. They find it hard to be objective and may blame others for any mishaps. Quiet people with a preference for red may feel the need for the warmth, strength and life-giving qualities of the color, or they blanket their true feelings under a sober exterior. Red is usually chosen by people with open and uncomplicated natures, with a zest for life.

Super cheap summer vacations for students...

50 Things I Wish I Knew Before My Erasmus Year


Moving abroad for Erasmus is meant to be a challenge, but a fun challenge. Challenge yourself to visit a million cliché landmarks, meet tons of people, and successfully find your way home in your new city after a night of partying. Don’t challenge yourself to see how many queues you sit in before finding out you have the wrong documents for your needed paperwork. Trust us. You don’t want or need that challenge. So we’ve compiled 50 tips for Erasmus from industry experts and former students, so that you can maximise the good times and minimise any “doh!” moments you might’ve come to experience otherwise.

1. “Don’t forget about the actual school part of your Erasmus year. At least where I was in Belgium, I had to study, not extensively every day, but I definitely had to study. If you don’t pass your courses, you have to pay back the scholarship, so don’t be overly complacent.”
Jorge (Xipo) | Belgium
2. “Make sure you sort out your course selection before you head to your new uni. Once you’re there the language barrier is only going to make the administrative stuff more confusing. So be certain to sort out the specifics of your credits with your tutor in advance because credit values tend to fluctuate.” 
Patricia Jiménez | Germany
3. “I found the level of study easier. From what I’ve seen, tests dont vary at all with what’s been done in class. The extra reading is almost optional, but there’s much more continous work.”

WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE BUYING A NEW CAR

Are luxury cars really worth the money? You might be surprised with the answer, and why. From my book,Happy Money: The Science of Smarter Spending.

Like houses, cars are among the largest purchases that most people make. Is it best to splurge on a BMW, economize with a Ford Escort, or settle for the mid-level option of a Honda Accord? When researchers at the University of Michigan asked students to predict how much pleasure they would experience while driving each type of car, the BMW was the clear winner. But do drivers experience more happiness behind the wheel of an expensive car? To find out,

10 Ways to Get Your Ex Back


1. Reconnect with a text. Sometimes absence makes the heart grow fonder—but other times, it causes that heart to seek out another man. So, don’t call first. “Try sending a sweet text, not one that will make her think you’re looking for a booty call,” says dating expert Julie Spira. “Think about something that you shared together that might warm her heart.” Example: Was listening to the radio and heard that Coldplay song. Brought back memories of the concert together. Hope you’re doing great? If she responds,

15 Flirting Mistakes Every Woman Makes


Never making a move ever and hoping he guesses that you like him.


1. Giggling nonstop like a clown on nitrous. I know, I know, men love it when you laugh at their jokes but here's the thing — if his jokes aren't funny, you're encouraging him to make more horrible jokes, and also eventually, if you laugh hard enough for too long, you slowly begin to look insane. So there's that.
2. Getting drunk to the point where you can't control your limbs. Because I can "hang!" I can "drink 10 shots of whiskey!" I'm "cool." I'm ... oh

14 Brutal Truths About Loving An Italian Guy

You're in for a bumpy ride.
So, you've found yourself a nice Italian boy. Congrats! And welcome to a completely different side of dating you knew nothing about.
Every nationality and heritage has its perks, quirks and flaws, but what about Italian men? What sets them apart from the rest of the men you've dated in the past?
While your new man is (probably) a good person, culture plays into personality and habits — both of which are not easily altered, if at all. With that said, here's 14 things that happen when you date an Italian guy:
1. He eats and drinks ... a LOT. If your man is having you over for dinner with his parents, come hungry (and thirsty) and fill your plate more than once.
2. He probably won't clean. Even if his room looks like a tornado swept through it, don't think he'll clean anything up. Unless his mom (or you) pick up his stuff for him, cleaning ain't gonna happen anytime soon.
3. He needs to be in control. Alpha females, beware.
4. He is VERY stubborn. The evidence could be right in front of him, but you're still wrong. It's his way or the highway.
5. Mom is #1 in his life. Italian guys are HUGE mama's boys ...

The Best Way to Lose Weight in a Week - Drop 5 Pounds in a Week


Drink mainly water
A sports or energy drink, fruit smoothie, or light beer — each serving contains about 100 calories. Yet these beverages don't satisfy you the way 100 calories of food does, so they're a waste. Other liquids may be high in sodium and carbohydrates, which trick your body into retaining water, puffing you out.
Water, on the other hand, has zero calories and carbs and little to no sodium, making it the perfect slim-down drink. And strangely,

5 Things Happy People Do Before Getting Out of Bed Every Morning


1. Express gratitude

Every new day leads to a new way to say “thank you” for being alive. Everything we experience and are capable of experiencing on this blue marble in this universal arena is something to be grateful for. Contemplate the fact that something rather than nothing exists and that within that something we exist and experience such an amazing reality. There is always something to be grateful for, we simply need to look around us and within us. Through continued gratitude we cannot help but feel an explosive volcanic eruption of bliss to be so fortunate as to have what we have.
Don’t get hung up on what you don’t have, because

10 Best ways to Be Happier

0604lady-jumping
A few years ago, on a morning like any other, I had a sudden realization: I was in danger of wasting my life. As I stared out the rain-spattered window of a New York City bus, I saw that the years were slipping by.

“What do I want from life?” I asked myself. “Well…I want to be happy.” I had many reasons to be happy: My husband was the tall, dark, handsome love of my life; we had two delightful girls; I was a writer, living in my favorite city. I had friends; I had my health; I didn’t have to color my hair. But too often I sniped at my husband or the drugstore clerk. I felt dejected after even a minor professional setback. I lost my temper easily. Is that how a happy person would act?

I decided on the spot to begin a systematic study of happiness. (A little intense, I know. But that’s the kind of thing that appeals to me.) In the end, I spent a year test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific studies, and tips from popular culture. If I followed all the advice, I wanted to know, would it work?

Well, the year is over, and I can say: It did. I made myself happier. And along the way I learned a lot abouthow to be happier. Here are those lessons. 

1. Don’t start with profundities. When I began my Happiness Project, I realized pretty quickly that, rather than jumping in with lengthy daily meditation or answering deep questions of self-identity, I should start with the basics, like going to sleep at a decent hour and not letting myself get too hungry. Science backs this up; these two factors have a big impact on happiness.

2. Do let the sun go down on anger. I had always scrupulously aired every irritation as soon as possible, to make sure I vented all bad feelings before bedtime. Studies show, however, that the notion of anger catharsis is poppycock. Expressing anger related to minor, fleeting annoyances just amplifies bad feelings, while not expressing anger often allows it to dissipate.

3. Fake it till you feel it. Feelings follow actions. If I’m feeling low, I deliberately act cheery, and I find myself actually feeling happier. If I’m feeling angry at someone, I do something thoughtful for her and my feelings toward her soften. This strategy is uncannily effective.

10. History
Portugal has a rich and interesting history in many ways. Portugal was technically considered a country in 1143 after an array of power struggles and invasions until finally joining what is now known as the European Union in 1968. This move is largely responsible for the Portugal we can visit today. Particularly interesting features of Portuguese history are preserved in unique museums–  such as those of whale hunting; one of the country’s greatest sources of income for a time, and the beautiful religious artworks and churches that were frequented especially in times of great political struggle. On the geological side, the islands of Portugal were formed by volcanic activity dating back millions of years, giving it a unique and brilliant quality of exposing the ancient.
