I know, i know... I am aware of just how busy I am these days. In fact, I have three projects i need to submit before Friday (duh, that leaves only today and tomorrow!). But when my head begins to cramp from so much visualizing and pretending to know what I'm doing (hehe), I just have to stop and leave it completely to do something else. So what do I decide to do instead? I answer Crazy Momcat's interesting tag!
I'm to list 20 random things about myself and I'm to tag as many people as it took minutes for me to write my list. Well, I won't tag anyone this time (seems like everyone I know is tag-tired already), but if anyone would like a quiet diversion from whatever he or she is doing, just feel free to swipe it off my post! :-)
20 RANDOM FACTS ABOUT ME
1. I am part Chinese (from my dad's side), part Japanese (my great grandma was from Okinawa), part British (my middle name when I was single was McCann) and part Filipino (from my mom's mom's side.
2. I have never been to any other country (apart from the Philippines) other than China and HongKong.
3. I married a man whom i had known for only 4 months. We've stayed married and recently celebrated our 7th year wedding anniversary.
4. I HATE spiders. As in frickin' scared-to-death of them!
5. I am an only child.
6. I love to paint but I can never seem to finish any of my pieces.
7. I was kidnapped by a crazy man when I was 9 years old. I was with my 8 year old cousin then. We managed to escape. He, on the other hand, was not so lucky. The police killed him.
8. I loved riding BMX bikes and doing all sort of stupid bike stunts when I was in 6th grade. And yes, I loved the movie "Rad".
9. I don't eat almost all kinds of fruits. The most I can take eating is a banana.
10. I had never had a major stitching in any part of my body until I gave birth normally to Nicky. Think about how horrified I was then!
11. I experienced post-partum depression for 2 weeks after giving birth to Nicky. Since I had NEVER ever held or seen a baby in my family all my life, I had no idea what to do with Nicky in those first weeks. Thank goodness it only lasted two weeks...
12. I sing. But I don't sing in front of a lot of people because I have stage fright. I can actually start a career as a ghost singer for someone else.
13. I adore the Beatles.
14. I don't like wearing perfume. It causes me allergies.
15. I don't carry around a handkerchief because I always end up losing them.
16. I am a worry-wart and I've been praying for a cure.
17. I miss my Grandpa Charlie a lot. He passed away 3 years ago. I've always seen him to be a cartoon character -- who'll never age and never die. Sigh...
18. Rainy days and Sunday afternoons really get me down.
19. I don't trust a lot of people because I've been hurt a lot in my life. I've learned that the only one you can trust in this life is God.
20. I hate bathrooms with wet floors and that don't carry toilet paper. As in big time!
I could go on and on with this list... but the tag says I should do 20. So maybe I'll save my 21 onwards list on another post :-)
And hey! If you decide you want to be tagged, let me know if you've posted your answers to your page so I can go read it.
