Q&A... 020

Something totally random.
[ ] You like to eat chicken feet. -Never even tried to eat one before.
[ ] You sing karaoke. -Believe it or not, I have never sang in front of my friends. Even my family hasn't seen me held a microphone and sing karaoke. 
[ ] You've worn glasses ever since you were in fifth grade. -I'm fortunate to have perfect vision.
[X] You'll haggle over something that is not negotiable. -Well, it's worth a try. Sometimes, vendors/sellers need a little push.
[X] You are a math genius. -Haha. I'd like to think that I am. Or was.
[ ] You take showers at night.
[X] You avoid the non-free snacks in hotel rooms. -Of course. You don't want to get held up just because you couldn't pay for your hotel bill because it went out of your budget.
[ ] You say "aiyah!" and "wah!" frequently.
[X] You save grocery bags. -Yes, I used them as trash bags.
[X] You twirl your pen around your fingers. -Out of habit. Only when I'm extremely bored.
[X] You have been taught that wasting food is a sin. -My grandparents told us that there are millions of people who don't have food on their table and some can only afford to have meals at least once a day. "Maraming taong nagugutom sa mundo... maswerte kayo at may kinakain kayo." That's the usual litany if one of us leaves food on the table. And I have it embedded in my mind.
[X] Your dad thinks he can fix everything himself. -I sometimes wonder if it has anything to do with him being an engineering grad. You'll be amazed at the contents of his toolbox! If we have a garage, I think it'll be an extension of a hardware store.
[ ] You beat eggs with chopsticks. -We use forks.
[ ] You like congee with thousand-year-old eggs. -I haven't tried this one! Will definitely add it to my food bucket list.
[X] You have eaten moon cakes.
[X] If you don't live at home, when your parents call, they ask you if you've eaten, even if it's midnight. -My lola does. When I was away in Singapore, I remember having the conversation begin like this: "O, kumain ka na ba?"
[ ] You email/sms your friends, even though you're only ten feet apart.
[ ] You can read traditional Chinese.
[X] Your toothpaste tubes are all squeezed paper-thin before they are thrown away. -In our household, nothing is wasted.
[X] You know what pearl milk teas are.
[ ] You bring fruit with you as a gift when you visit people's homes.
[ ] You have acquired a taste for bitter melon.
[X] You eat every last grain of rice in your bowl, but don't eat the last piece of food on the table.
[ ] Your parents argue with other adults over the dinner bill.
[ ] You love to use coupons.

Q&A... 019

FRIEND CONFESSIONS

Are you jealous of one or more of your friends?

:: A few. Just in terms of them living out their dreams while I'm still trying to figure out mine... 

Have you known any of your friends your whole life?

:: No. Not really. Just twenty years or so. I've met most of my friends in school (grade school, high school, college...) and there's only a few people I've been in contact with constantly. 

Are any of your friends taller than you?

:: Yes. A lot of them. Sadly, I belong to the shorter group (I'm 5'2"). 

Have you ever been ditched by a friend?

:: Quite a few times. But I don't consider them as my friends anymore. I forgive, but I don't forget which makes it harder for me to maintain relationships (even with friends).

Where do your friends live?

:: Mostly in the Philippines? Hehe. Most, if not all, are within Manila.

Have you lost or forgotten a friend's phone number?

:: Lost is more like it, since my phone got stolen a few months ago. 

Have you been to most of your friend's houses?

:: Yes, especially those who lives nearby.

HABIT CONFESSIONS

Do you play with things when nervous?

:: I play with my hair. Yeah, I know it makes me look like I'm crazy. But what can I do? I'm obsessed with my hair. Hehe.

Do you have an odd obsession with knives?

:: Not very fond of them knives. But I'm very good at handling them. 

Do you sleep with the door open or closed?

:: Definitely closed. I easily get scared, so an open door does things to my imagination. It better be close if I wanted to fall asleep fast. Otherwise... hehehe.

Do you bite your nails?

:: No, I don't. C'mon! Just think of all the bacteria/germs you're putting inside your mouth! Gross.

What is your worst habit?

:: I have weird ones, but I don't think any of them can be considered worst. How do you even consider or define a habit as worst?

LOVE CONFESSIONS

Do you currently like someone?

:: Yes, totally. To the point that I constantly find myself thinking of him. 

Do they like you?

:: I don't even know if he knows me. Or if he even knows I exist. :(

Do you get bored of your girlfriend/boyfriend easily?

:: This I got to admit. I plead... Guilty. My friend once told me that I fall in and out of love so easily that it's becoming a lot harder to catch up with my feelings. Does that makes sense?

Has one of your crushes ever called you self-centered before?

:: No. I haven't even been able to strike up a conversation with any of my past crushes. As in those that I actually been a little obsessed with. 

PERSONAL OPINION CONFESSIONS

Who do you want for President?

:: I actually wanted (voted for) Manny Villar, but the current president is my second choice and he has all my support. I just wish people would cut him some slack. It's not like anyone can turn a third world country into a first-world country overnight. He hasn't been done with his term yet, give him a break.

Do you think abortions are horrible?

:: Yes. A child is a blessing, wanted or not. There are hundreds (maybe even thousands) of woman who can't conceive even if they wanted to, and God has given you that gift that most woman wanted, and you're just gonna throw it all away? If you can't raise the child, put the child for adoption. Someday, somewhere, someone will care for that child and give it a home. Besides if you don't wanna get pregnant in the first place, don't do the act. (or at least take precautions!)

Needles aren't so horrible?

:: They're not, but I still don't like them.

You have plenty of secrets?

:: Yes. To stay sane and the feeling of knowing something others don't. It's a thrill. But I must admit that I'm having a lot of them (secrets) lately. I think it's time to reveal some to lighten the load a bit. Hehe. 

HAVE YOU EVER CONFESSIONS

Have you ever fallen up the stairs?

:: Fallen up? Lol. But I fell down the stairs once when I was young. Missed a couple of steps. Nothing serious, though. No broken bones or anything.

Have you ever slapped someone across the face?

:: Yes. Once. And for a petty reason.

Have you ever killed anyone?

:: Nope. But I've murdered a dozen in my mind... hehehe. That's why sometimes... I'm thankful for my imagination. I can do whatever I want inside my head. And no one can sue me about them.

Worn the same clothes for a week straight?

:: If it refers to the clothes not being washed at all, then no, I haven't.

Who is the most beautiful person you know?

:: Dennisse, a friend of mine from college. She's not only beautiful on the outside, but she also has a good heart, and I'm lucky enough to have been able to spend time with her during our sophomore year, thus, be able to know the amazing side of her.

Who knows you best?

:: Among all my friends (including my best friends), I think Pam knows me the best since we got to spend almost six years working together.

Ever given your all to someone who walked away?

:: Of course.

Best friend of the opposite sex?

Who has the power to make your world fall apart?

:: Luckily, I haven't entrusted anyone with such power! Hahaha!

Ever love someone that wasn't good for you?

:: It's more like him being TOO good for me... : (

Wanna say something to someone?

:: "Why can't you just choose me instead?" ~my heart's silent appeal.

Wish things could have gone differently with someone?

:: Yes. But things... they happen for a reason...

How's your heart lately?

:: Beating at its normal rate.

Q&A... 014

Two feelings at the moment?

:: Tired and happy

What are you listening to right now?

:: k-pop playlist... my favorite music from Korean artists

A part of a song lyric that's in your mind right now?

:: baby you light up my world like nobody else... LSS. And I'm not even a big fan of One Direction. Its just that this song has a way of being stuck in my head once I hear it.

What is the highlight of your week?

:: It will probably be the town fiesta this coming Sunday. 

What are you craving to have right now?

:: Tokyo Cafe's Carbonara... yum!

Any unforgettable childhood memory?

:: A stolen first kiss from kindergarten days? I've been thinking about that a lot lately.

A not-so-good childhood memory?

:: When I stepped on a nail (as I jumped from a table in our garden) while pretending to be a gymnast.

Your plans for tomorrow?

:: Go to work.

Are you thinking of someone right now?

:: Yes. I've been thinking a lot about a certain person lately.

Do you party?

:: Yes. I love parties. I even love organizing them.

Do you like twins?

:: Haven't given it much thought.

Are you feeling hungry?

:: Yes. For the past couple of days, I've been feeling rather hungry all the time.

Who do you miss right now?

:: My friends. Especially my college friends, Pior and Izel. I haven't seen them in ages.

Are you in love?

:: Yes. Everyday. ♥

What do you like about night?

:: The moon, the stars, the quietness...

If you were in a farm, what do you want to see?

:: Rice field... a vast landscape full of vegetables, fruits, etc.

How many best friends do you have?

:: I have two. But I haven't seen both since we graduated from high school.

Would you rather get up early or sleep in?

:: Sleep in. I want to get up early, but I couldn't. My bed is just too tempting!

Who do you love?

:: My family, friends, and... ♥

What would you change about your life right now?

:: To be able to have accomplished the things that I thought I would have already done by now.

Would you rather smile over a lie or cry over the truth?

:: Cry over the truth. Because the feeling of being lied to is far worse than knowing the truth. At least when you're done crying you can put it behind you and move on. 

Who was the last person you got into an argument with?

:: A former friend. 

Do you trust people easily?

:: I did when I was young and naive. I thought that everyone was innocent unless proven otherwise. Now, because of being more exposed to the "truth/ways of the world" I've become more suspicious of people's true intentions. 

Could you go a day without eating?

:: No. I love to eat. No matter how many times I told myself that I needed to lose weight, I just couldn't resist the sight and smell of my favorite foods.

How much does looks matter to you?

:: Little. I can honestly say now that I prefer someone who can make me laugh and someone I could have good, meaningful conversations with over a man who just looks good (and does good only in bed).

How do you feel about PDA (Public Display of Affection)?

:: It's normal. Just not too excessive, puh-lease...

Would you rather be mad or sad?

:: I'd rather be sad. I don't like the surge of emotions that overcomes me when I'm mad. I hate feeling guilty afterwards.

Does it take a lot to make you cry?

:: Not really. I cry way too easily. I even cry at will. It's a personal talent. 

Are you tight with your mommy?

:: Yes. My mom and I are much closer now than we were before.

Name one fear that you have.

:: Losing another loved one. I've always told my friends that I'd rather die first than see a member of my family pass away again. Until now, I still cry when I think about my grandfather's sudden death. And it had been six years.

If you need to go to the store a block away, do you walk or drive?

:: Since I do not own a car, I will walk. Besides, even if I do have a car, gasoline nowadays is just too expensive!

Does the thought of marriage scare you?

:: A little. But of course, every girl/woman wishes to be married to a man she wants to spend the rest of her life with.

What did you do today?

:: Went to work.

In 20 years, where do you see yourself?

:: I see myself travelling the world, married to a man I want to be with, and probably have kids of my own.

Who will you choose to die with?

:: As twisted as it may sound, I'd rather die alone.
