I’ve been tagged by Ana. It looks like an interesting one, so here goes:
RULES: People who are tagged should write a blog post of 6 weird things about them as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says 'you are tagged' in their comments and tell them to read your blog....
(These are the rules created by… I don’t know who, but I try to stick to it..)
Fact 1
Some of you may know that I’m a tidy and organized kind of person (sometimes frighteningly so!!), especially when it comes to stuff like… my books. I have loads of books and not only are they neatly arranged on the shelves according to authors, they are also catalogued in my pc.
Ok, so that’s not so weird. Many people do that… I think. But whenever I’m at a bookstore, casually browsing along the shelves, I’ll catch myself rearranging the books, shelving them in the ‘right’ order.
Hey.. at least I’m doing the store a favour. People will be able to find books a lot easier.
Fact 2
I’ve got really strange hearing. Whenever I hear something on my right, you can bet you life that the sound is coming from my left, and vice versa. Same goes for front and back. Due to this, a lot of people have been kept waiting at the gate because I always assumed that the honking was coming from the road at the back of the house.
Fact 3
Every morning when I get up from bed, walking towards the bathroom, I always stop at the dressing table and brush my hair even though I know that I’ll be getting into the shower in a few minutes. I’m not vain or anything because when I brush my hair, I don’t necessary look in the mirror. It’s just a process that I go through every morning.
Fact 4
I can’t let go of stuff. I keep things for their sentimental values even though I hardly have enough space for them. I still have all those movie stubs from my UK time. And some of them you can’t even see anything anymore because the ink has been rubbed off. But I can always flick through and see that I watched Lion King and Forrest Gump THREE times!! EACH!! At the movies!! (And cried all of those times too!!!)
Fact 5
When I eat rice, and all it’s ‘lauk’, I have to make sure that the fish or chicken or veggies does not go on the rice itself. But would have to be arranged around the rice in a semicircle. If anyone were to serve me and placed, say the chicken, right on top of my rice mount, I’ll move it to the side and patiently pick out all the bits of rice that’s sticking to the chicken. (Gosh!! I’m starting to sound like Jack Nicholson’s character in As Good As It Gets!!)
Fact 6
I love durians... but only the fresh ones. I cannot stand durian flavoured ice-creams, or durian cakes or durian eaten with something else like sticky rice.
Give me fresh durians anytime, and no thank you to the others.
So there. All my idiosyncrasies revealed. I hereby tag Iza, CS, G, Spectacularwave, Akmal and Fasha.
