Do creative people have a higher Intelligence then non-creative people?

liranlgo @liranlgo (5752) • Israel 16 Jun 07

Yes i know that some people think that this is not true, but i can tell you that every creative person that i have met in my life, has a very high Intelligence level. What do you think about that? Do you think so too? Or do...

galatea Intelligence is acquired, you just don't wake up a physics whiz, although some acquire knowledge faster than others. Creativity is natural but needs to be nurtured and practiced. An intelligent person easily recognizes his capacity and possibilities so he'll...

What is your Favourite Pastime?

jennybianca @jennybianca (12912) • Australia 12 Jun 07

I was wondering the other day whether I spend too much time on two of my favourite pastimes, & not enough on others? My number 1 and 2 favourite pastimes would be reading a good novel, & going on the internet. I love both, but...

galatea Same here. Reading books and going online are my two favorite pastimes. Sometimes I read novels on my laptop too, from gutenberg.org, but it's nothing like holding a book and flipping through the pages. My other pastimes are writing songs, poems and stories,...

galatea Seventeen pounds!!!! Hurrah! Hurrah! I wish I can lose that much too. A low carb diet? Hmm... maybe I should try it but I don't know how I'll live without pasta, rice and bread. But that's really great to hear, I bet you look like a million bucks right now.

Receiving Payout Porblem.....

marababe @marababe (2503) • Philippines 16 May 07

I'm near my minimum payout of $10. Maybe tonight or tomorrow I'll reach it since I'm only $.34 short. So now my problem is that I can only use E-Gold here in the Philippines. I tried to make an account in PayPal but it is still...

galatea I'm thinking of suggesting xoom instead of e-gold. Check out their website, it's like paypal but it deposits directly to your local bank account like banco de oro etc.

galatea My boyfriend is Shrek and Ozzy Osbourne in one. A temperamental rocker with a very marshmallowy inside. Sometimes he can be brute you know, snarling here and there, but its his way of hiding his soft spots.

Darkwing @Darkwing (21583) 12 May 07

It's not been the best of days for me today, and I seem to have my mind on food, probably for comfort eating, so having dispensed with nuts, I'm now thinking of what Snack I like. I don't have any in, which is probably not a bad...

galatea Oh dear, oh my. I was just thinking about comfort food earlier in the day. Mine would be chips, chocolate, pizza, and fuji apple, pears, and grapes. For chips, I agree with you totally on Pringles, just love the taste and texture of it. Cheetos and Doritos...

Skin Color...

Chadanne @Chadanne (253) • Philippines 3 May 07

Hello my fellow Filipinos! Isn's it stupid that people in this country cares much about skin color? I mean, why do majority of Filipinos judge a person by his/her skin color? They label people as "maitim" or "maputi" and consider...

galatea There is a socio-psychological reason to this phenomenon. Our colonizers have all been light skinned and among other things we are still wont to look up on them and desire their qualities because by doing so we may be placed within their ranks, as...

galatea I definitely love the people here, especially my friends. Aside from that mylot is a very user-friendly and ever evolving site and the admins are very responsible. But what I really love about this place is the opportunity it gave me to meet my partner. ;)
