Random Facts (tagged by coffee ninja Abby)

(I believe I've done this random-facts-about-yourself-thingy but hey, I just wanna do it again)


=)


Rules:

*Each blogger starts with ten random facts/habits about themselves.

*Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their ten things and post these rules.

*At the end of your blog, you need to choose ten people to get tagged and list their names.

*Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.


1. I'm a coffee-holic and chocolate fanatic as well. I appreciate coffee nightouts more than beer nightouts. =)

2. I love Anne Rice. Of all her characters, of course I love Lestat the most. And I'm not really a vampire person, just an Anne Rice vampire person. I love to read but I've read mostly Anne Rice.

3. I have a 7-year-old kid. My daughter Lemon was nicknamed as such because her name should've been Lestat (Lestat + Montejo = Lemon) had she been born a boy. But she's not, so we named her Nickel. But the nickname stayed.

4. Yes, yellow is my favorite color. But I also love amber. And black is not a color.

5. I own more bags than shoes. I'm a bag person.

6. I am a rock music whore. It started with going gaga over The Beatles. Of course I am not that old. *cough cough*

7. I'm 28 and I've worked for 8 years already. Survey supervisor in Nueva Vizcaya, Research Assistant, Collections Officer, Research Assistant again, Researcher, Medical Representative, Field Manager, and now a Customer Service Rep. Where am I really headed?

8. During events, I either dress up as a Vampire or a Pirate. Someday I'll dress up as a fallen angel (aka Memnoch the Devil) :D

9. I love to cook! I've been preparing dishes since I was in highschool. I must say that I'm pretty good at it.

10. My dreams-in-a-box include: being in a rock n' roll band, becoming a painter, playing the violin, having a huge personal library, among others.


I'm not tagging. =)

On Christianity and Atheism (from Penny's post)

"The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians.
Who acknowledge Jesus with their lips, then walk out the door
And deny Him by their lifestyle
That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable."

Remembering the past to get past the present.

I don't deny the fact that I've been rather under the weather these days. My escape? I daydream. I create an alternate world where I am carefree and blissful. This time though, I was transported back to that time when I all I ever worry about was stuff like my grade three teacher always finding something to point out - hair out of place, folded page of our ancient books, long fingernails, a stain on my blouse, incomplete homework - the list is endless. Well, people like her still surround me up to this day but now they're either my superiors or "friends." =)

How I miss my childhood! I miss the days when my Nanay would scream about when she found out I went out of the house in midday to play on the streets with covers as capes and long sticks as swords (yes, I am that boyish!), when she warned me with a clothes hanger not to because I'd grow dark (Mom, just in case you didn't notice, I was born dark. I was never fair all my life) and get infested with lice that would fly me to where ever. I was lead to believe that lice come from the rays of the sun (and not from my playmates). Of course as a kid I've had them, not because I play too much under the sun, but because I play with fellow batang-kalyes (street kids) who probably had a kingdom of tiny blood-sucking insects in their crowning glory. Oh how my mother would try to intervene and keep me inside the house to pull each nit (louse egg) from my long long hair. Eh nanggigigil pa, so imagine the pain. I was especially torturted due to the fact that the rest of my 'team' was battling the evil giant robot from planet something something and I was left at the base, having issues with the commander. How could they accomplish such feat without me?

Voltes V, Shaider, Machine Man, Maskman, Bioman, Mask Rider Black, Ultraman, Magmaman... when I was a kid, my heart was Japanese. My posse and I would watch each episode in our house (my dad owns a TV repair shop so we had the best color TV set in the neighborhood). An episode was always better when you watch it with friends who're probably more enthusiastic than you'll ever be. Late afternoons were something to look forward to everyday. How we hated weekends then because we had to endure two long days without an episode. And remember how bitin you feel after an episode? And when the episode's over and they all had to go home, ayan na, nagkakawalaan na ng tsinelas! Some of them couldn't find one of their slippers gone while others couldn't find both! Some would find theirs a few feet away from our doorstep. Aside from walking home barefoot, we dread the anger of our mothers who'd give us a sermon that would put the bishop to shame, and use the spare slipper to teach us a lesson or two, but would buy us Sunbeach or Rambbo (this is the correct spelling!) slippers afterwards, of course not without embarassing you in front of the tindera first. Sosyal ka pag Islander ang binili sa'yo.

Once every full moon, we'd be allowed to stay up and stay out late. We'd play Patintero under the moonlight or pretend that we're camping out. We'd share ghost stories that would keep us awake and paranoid for days and nights! Pugot na ulo, white lady, vampires (they were described as monstrous beings), bats that attack, werewolf, aswang, kapre, tikbalang, mananaggal - I believed them with all my heart and wits. I didn't know that those were just nicknames wives lovingly give their husbands when they get home drunk and without money.

Tex (the ultimate trade card game), marbles, rubberbands, scented stationeries (babae naman ako minsan), Super Trump, Nintendo, Game and Watch (geyminwatsh), colored sisiw and itik, salagubang, palamig that doubles as sumpit na sago, playing in the rain, picking flowers from neighbors' well-kept gardens, picking fights with kids in the neighborhood, chasing dragonflies (the powdery stuff on butterfly wings can make you blind daw), Mighty Kid, Kaypee, amazing pencil cases, matching character shirts and shorts - these things made my world go round then. If only it's still that simple. Oh to be a kid again!!!

Pero the best pa rin ang Takeshi's Castle. One hundred thousand yen fighting spirit award!!!

I've had a typical childhood, seriously lacking all the luxuries most kids from the villages had. But it was fun, and I'll always remember it til the day I die. I especially love looking back when I feel down, just like now.

And it works! I'm now smiling and feeling like I'm okay to face the world again.

regretful much?

do you know the feeling when you wanted so bad to get out of a sitch, yet you can't because somehow you believe there's good in your sacrifices? and that maybe you'll be committing a bigger mistake if you do?

i'm in too deep. sucks.
