Watch Me Entertain Myself!

Sacha Guitry once said, "You can pretend to be serious, but you can't pretend to be witty." Oh yes, I'm the great pretender.

Tag-Tuyot Sa Blog? Magpa-Tag!

The following “25 random things about me” is brought to you by writers’ block.

1. My favorite fruit is mango.
2. I like orange as a color and as a fruit. I don’t have a favorite color though.
3. My SUV used to be named “Rupert”. Then it was changed to “Orlando”.
4. Only recently have I started trimming and shaving my pubes. It was unheard of when I was growing up.
5. I like cats because they’re not as attention-needy like dogs.
6. I can make my ears move at the same time and one at a time.
7. I used to collect X-Men comics, but that was because my major crush then was into them.
8. I used anti-pimple creams when I was a teenager. But after college I never bothered to put anything on my face, not even soap; I just washed it with water. It was only last year that I started using product on my face.
9. I spit, not swallow. I only swallow for love.
10. I used to pluck my eyebrows too cleanly. Now I only pluck strays.
11. Pizza and burgers are my comfort food and my culinary guilt pleasures.
12. I try and appreciate the unexpected. Survival chances are higher if you learn to roll with the punches.
13. A major reason why I stopped attending mass is the homilies.
14. I’m very open to the idea of ghosts and other supernatural beings; yet, I’ll be the first one to insist on finding the most rational, natural explanation when faced with something unusual.
15. I love corn and malunggay clear soup.
16. My room is the messiest, with stuff all over the place. I know where most of the newer stuff and the ones I often use are, but for the older ones and the ones I rarely use, I’m not sure now where I placed them.
17. I love my family, though I don’t make it obvious to them because I find that cheesy.
18. I am SSB (Single Since Birth).
19. I can freeze melting ice cream faster than one can say “Japan”. (Only one person will get this one. Well, maybe two.)
20. I have a crush on someone who most probably will have reached this part.
21. It took me about a week to fill this list up.
22. This list shouldn’t be taken too seriously.
23. I hate long lists like this.
24. I hate being tagged.
25. I refuse to tag anyone. As far as I’m concerned, this ends here.

I refuse to tag anyone, too.

In the same manner that I refuse to forward chain mail. Whenever there is one suspect chain email, I trash it without reading.

re: #14, try staying in my apartment for a couple of days and you'll get to meet my friendly "housemate" Marita. My place used to be a lying-in maternity clinic and Marita's spirit (not her real name and I learned that she died while giving birth way back in the early 80's) still lingers at the foot of my second-floor stairway. she's benign. she keeps to herself and never bothers me. it's pretty interesting to have lived here all these years with a friendly ghost to keep me company.

oh, and i totally enjoyed that little party in ortigas a few hours ago. :-) it was great. thank you.

(hope rick didn't swallow his tongue while snoring in his sleep)
