Sanguine Soup from the Choleric-Melancholic Soul

After my entry on Christmas flashbacks, I was pretty much content on not getting too involved in the activities, until I was called upon to be the emcee of Alabang Life Club Christmas party. "Super Jon", as my friend jokingly calls me, was ready once again to respond to the urgency and lack of available manpower.

The one-hour sleep from an overnight activity made things exciting. To top the nice scenario, I was told to lead in singing songs 30 minutes in advance. Talk about the desire of staying low key in Christmas activities!

When I got to host the games, I was really amazed on how I got pull off a lot of jokes. It was simply comedic genius. I really to be totally sanguine in a brief moment. I created a cheerful and funny atmosphere. The games were well planned, but I got to fill it up with jokes from the choleric-melancholic soul.

For those who know the four temperaments, I'm a choleric-melancholic. In layman's terms my personality is a task-oriented, domineering and reflective person. In that short span of time, I got to be the funny guy.

Looking back at that moment, I pulled it of because I viewed the scenario as a task. The task was to make sure that the party was entertaining. At informal gatherings, I'm not the life of the party. Since it was formal, in the sense that it had an organized program, I had the task of being the life of the party.

Which leads me to this conclusion: If I view any relationships as tasks wherein I personally define and execute it in an organized manner, I'll expect to show more glimpses of my sanguinity outside my choleric-melancholic shell. It's kind of like being creative by analytically using discrete and definite processes. Pretty heavy stuff, don't you think?
