It's been a hell of a week of stress for me as compared to what I have gone through last week. Anyway, I was hard again at work for my graduate paper when a good friend of mine suddenly tagged me to write about 25 Random things about me. I was actually going to do this next week but for some reason I ended up doing it. I had fun. I made it a bit longer too not just some one liner thing.
1. I am a chocoholic. Anything covered in chocolate I eat it. A day does not go by without having one. I am just a real sweet tooth.
2. I love stuffed toys/animals. I give them names and birthdays. I still keep even those the one when I was really small.
3. I love watching cartoons. I can't really get over them. Kid at heart forever!
4. I get stressed if the food served is in buffet style. My mind suddenly panics because I can't make up my mind on what to eat. When lining up, I scan the whole table quickly so I can decide easily because sometimes the server keeps on piling up lots of food on my plate and they get mixed which I totally hate. Yes, I am an OC. It's here on the list.
5. Most people know I don't eat vegetables, but I love carrots, lettuce and a bit of tomatoes. I guess I am a bugs bunny at heart. What's up Doc?
6. I can ride a bike and do free hand. I have never fallen from it while learning and riding it. I have also taught my sister and she can ride as well, did not even fell.
7. I love riding trains and trams so much. If I get married, I want to have my honeymoon in the Orient Express or the Blue Train.
8. I want to go bungy jumping, sky diving and white water rafting. It's such an adrenaline rush and such an adventure.
9. I love to act on stage though I never had formal training or workshop. Take note ACT not sing! I have been acting in a lot of school plays since I was small so I don't really have stage fright. But if the play is musical, that's a different story. Yes, I can't sing. I am not one of those blessed with a beautiful voice. I am not a song bird. Usually I work behind the scenes.
10. I am not fond of beaches only when I can have it to myself and very few close friends and loved ones not when it's crowded and full of people. Since I live in a tropical country every two months in a year or maybe three people go to the beach. I don't really get it on how they find it relaxing when everyone is there hanging out as well. Way too crowded. For me, it's just so you can tell other people, you were there especially if it's a hot spot. I would rather go on a road trip than be stuck with a lot of people on the beach and experiencing my personal space invaded. I don't jump on the bandwagon most of the time.
11.I don't know how to swim, never plan to take lessons either. I almost drowned when I was really young, I guess that marked the end of swimming for me
12. I have an eye for photography. I love taking pictures. People say I have a good eye for it. I just don't have the time and the camera yet to pursue the hobby.
13. I am an obsessive compulsive person. I don't need to explain this. Not much space and time.
14. I hate letting go of things like letters, memorabilias or any kind of stuff given to me except if it's food, I eat it at once from friends, family, students, ex-boyfriends. I have boxes full of it. I just like keeping them. You can just imagine how much trash I keep.
15.I love to travel and see the world most especially seeing historical places. Traveling is one of the top things I love to do given the time and money. I like learning new cultures, food tripping, striking conversations with the locals. I love that. It's one of the best avenues of learning.
16. I would like to take horseback riding lessons and compete in show jumping competitions. I love horses. I guess because I was born under the year of the horse.
17.I love going to museums, observatories, planetariums and public libraries. I can spend the whole day there. That's relaxation for me.
18. I love wearing pajamas. I sometimes I have the habit of wearing them all day when I am around the house.
19. I rarely drink coffee and tea, I am more of the milk person,just as long as its australian milk. My tummy loves it very much.
20. I want to build a school in Africa and give free education to the children. I always wanted to share whatever I have. I am not born rich just middle average. I think the children in Africa deserve a lot more than some of the kids who don't really care what they have.
21. I have only drank from the school fountain less than 5 times since I have been in school not just at my workplace. I really have sensitive tummy over water. I only drink bottled water except when I was in Australia, I was pretty amazed to myself when I drank water from the spring, I did not get any tummy problems.
22. I am a passionate person. I give 110 % to everything I do. It wears me out. I just don't want to feel regret. I hate that.
23. I am not into clothes and make up that much but if you see me wearing something nice out of the ordinary..that is courtesy of my sister, she is my stylista. I miss my sister so much.
24. If I want something, I am going to get it, no matter what the cost and I make sure nobody gets hurt as well oftentimes...hey, I try.
I try very hard especially if I want to accomplish things. Just kidding about the nobody gets hurt thing. Like if I want to travel, I don't want to ask money from my folks, I save it and find the best budget deals I can get.I wanted a Macbook for myself as a birthday present, saved money for it. I make a lot of sacrifices for the things I want not just material stuff but a lot more.
25. I thrive on stress. I know this is not healthy but it does work for me. I become more productive and effective. One of my friends told me, I am one of the people who seemed to like it a lot.
Hope you find this one interesting and may you try to do this one also. It's fun. My kids (students) had a blast from it! Try it, it's good!
