in response to andee's tag-ification..
"Rules of the game:
1. post 5 weird/random stuff abt yourself
2. at the end, list the names of 5 ppl who you want next to this and leave a comment “YOU ARE TAGGED” in their blogs and tell them to read your blog for rules!" -ripped directly off andee's blog.
1. cockroaches scare the hell outta me, be it if they're just standing still, worse still if they're flying (someone once told me that only pregnant cockroaches fly). but lizards don't bother me much. my theory is that, lizards at least make the effort to run away from you or just sit peacefully in a corner (bobby, yes like how i once studied next to a lizard), but cockroaches are just plain stupid, God knows how they've survived millions of years. they just run straight AT you, or fly randomly around! EVIL. in my house my mom is the official cockroach catcher, my brother occasionally dabbles with bravery though he is less successful, and my father and i stand on furniture upon sighting them. mom's fav quote everytime i have to wake her/rouse her/beg her to come catch the cockroach "aiyo you can climb a mountain but still scared of cockroaches". my brother's "i caught it la, really really. just go back to sleep" although i'm very sure he missed!
2. sometimes when i'm lying on my bed at night, or if i wake up in the middle of the night, and i'm suddenly feeling very apprehensive and scared, cos i mightve heard some sounds that seem to come from outside my room or the balcony, i tell myself, if i don't hear another sound in 10 seconds it means everything's okay, or, if i count to ten and by then i've not been stabbed/shot/smashedintheheadwithabluntobject, everything's going to be okay. and then i'll proceed to count Really Fast, to 10, within 3 seconds. and somehow i feel much better immediately after that, and can resume sleeping amazingly peacefully.
3. my father still calls me baby, although i guess he doesn't think of me literally as his baby, just that now its become more my name, than nita has. and i don't mind. in fact, the rare times that he actually calls me nita i will notice, because it feels funny.
4. my first email address was created in primary six, and it is the one that i use to log into msn. the numbers in my email address are my psle index number, probably because i performed beyond my expectations, and hence assumed them to be a divine set of numbers. but i've stopped using this email for actual email purposes, just for msn. it's full of spam. (another email address that was created shortly after this one was peacemaker@wolf-web.com. still like that one-haha)
5. sometimes my imagination is so strong, that when i dream or think about something over and over again, i begin to feel like i've already done it. somewhat akin to that time i kept thinking i should go jogging in the evening, and i'd use to picture myself jogging, the route i'd run, so much so that postthethoughts, i'd actually feel good, like as though i'd already exercised. believe me, sometimes i even feel slimmer.
and the five people that i tag in return ARE daryl saus melody mog and crystal. make me happy and do it, please? :)
