(no subject)
Meme I did on the forum, which I decided to post here too since, well... I won't be able to call myself a self-respecting LJer if I don't do more of these. ^^
1. How tall are you barefoot?
5'4". I remember how I eagerly wanted to be 5'6" just like Elisabeth and Jessica in the Sweet Valley High series. Bye, childhood dream.
2. Have you ever smoked before?
Nope. Kills my underaged brother that I can smoke legally and don't make full use of the chance, though. XD
3. Do you own a gun?
Nope.
4. If you had a mental disorder, what would it be?
What's that called... "Obsessive compulsive disorder"? I go crazy over organising things, and by "things" I mean unimportant stuff like mp3s and fanart. I've gone through several major rearrangements for my mp3 files; and my fanart folder is divided by series, then group/singles pics, then by colour/black-and-white/monochrome... and that's just the major vein amongst the other numerous categories I have (by artist, by character, by all-girl/all-guy groups...)
5. How many letters are in your crush's name?
Five. Starts with a C and ends with a D. ♥_♥
Oh, you meant real crushes! Haven't had one of those in YEARS, literally. I'm quite certain my biggest crush was back when I was twelve, and I can't even remember his name anymore.
6. What do you think of hot dogs?
Not bad. I've gotten a bit sick of them, but once in a while I'd be up for one.
7. What's your favorite Christmas song?
Yikes, there are so many I adore... Silent Night wins out, but special mention goes to Angels We Have Heard On High and Oh Come, All Ye Faithful.
I've had to suppress the urge to swear colourfully upon listening to Frosty the Snowman, though, simply because it's been overplayed on all the radios to death.
8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning?
Hot tea. With pinky extended and everything.
9. Do you do push-ups?
Not willingly, not of my own accord, and most certainly not regularly. But when I'm forced to (say, through a compulsory physical education exam in school...), I can pull a few. Girls are allowed to cheat and use the school benches, though, so maybe that doesn't count.
10. Have you ever done ecstacy?
Nope.
11. Do you smoke weed?
Nope.
12. Do you like painkillers?
Nope. ...Except when I'm in pain.
13. What is your secret weapon to lure in the opposite sex?
I'm going to treat this on a purely innocent level, since if I didn't, I'd have another "no" answer on my hands-- to befriend the guys in my class, I usually talk about video games. That's usually enough to surprise them and get them talking a bit more.
14. Do you own a knife?
Dozens! Butterknives, sharp knives, and no Asian/Chinese household is complete without the the big, huge, gigantic butcher's knife that could slice your head off in one swing.
15. ThisnumberismissingandIknowitbutI'mtoolazytochangethenumbersofthequestionsfollowingitkkbai. >
16. Full initials?
JGAL.
17. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment.
- I have to clean my room. I've been putting it off since last year! If Cloud were really living under my bed, he would've died of suffocation of dust by now... BUT I'M SO LAZYYYYYY. D:
- Why won't the plot bunnies in my head materialise while I'm at the computer and am actually able to realise them, as opposed to appearing while I'm out/bathing/any other activity that doesn't allow writing to occur?!
- First thing I plan to do when I settle down in Singapore: Put up a bloody poster on my room's wall. I've gone through 19 years of having empty bedroom walls, enough is enough!
18. Name the last 3 things you have bought.
Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code (...What? I was curious! The cacophony surrounding it sucked me in!), Angels & Demons and Neil Gaiman's Anansi Boys.
...I feel like I'm cheating by having all three items as books, but I seriously can't remember having bought much else this past month. Except food.
19. Name five drinks you regularly drink.
Water, hot/cold tea, Coke, ice Milo, fruit juices.
20. What time did you wake up today?
8.30AM... I blearily looked at my watch, remembered that it was a Saturday, reminded myself that I'd have to wake up around this time FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE once I started classes... and went back to bed.
So officially, I woke up at 11AM.
21. Can you spell?
Yes. I can't be a Spelling Nazi without knowing how to spell, can I?
22. Current worry?
Some of our neighbours have heard people climbing on their roofs late at night, which has gotten my mom freaked out (and subsequently, me), since our house is a friggin' invite to robbers everywhere.
"Come, rob us! Our roof tiles are easily breakable, and you can pluck out bits of our non-concrete ceiling with a hammer! Even though we have three dogs, they can't do squat if you're on the roof and out of range!"
...I want to rare a rabid cat that'll bite their eyes out. I really want to.
23. Current hate?
Nothing in particular right now. My hatred for my ISP is a constant, neverending bubble of seething rage that will last until the end of time... so I don't think that counts.
24. Favorite place to be?
Home. TV, computer, Playstation... No better place to be, honestly. So it befuddles me why I always see bored teenagers hanging about with nothing to do in fields/malls.
25. Least favorite place to be?
Shopping malls.
Yes, this is coming from a girl. I'd let you check for yourself, but then I'd have to sue you.
26. Where would you like to go for college?
I've already left college.
27. Do you own slippers?
Yep! Slippers are for home-wear, everytime I am forced need to venture outside the house to pick up the newspaper/mail, and sandals are for going out. All the time. I love their slip-on-and-walk-away simplicity.
28. Where do you think you'll be in 10 yrs?
Living in my mother's basement as a struggling writer... if I choose to be a writer, which I increasingly don't think I will.
I dunno, I never think that far ahead.
29. Do you burn or tan?
Tan. Very tan. And because I'm naturally somewhat dark (about medium-brownish...?), I end up like a piece of charcoal with legs after a day at the beach.
30.Favorite color/s?
Black, blue, maroon, violet-- and on the opposite end of the spectrum, light pastels.
31. Would you be a pirate?
If it guarantees me whopping great times with Captain Jack Sparrow, sure!
32. Last time you had an alcoholic drink?
Never had one. And I'm 20 years-old. Now THAT's sad. I swear I'll get pissing drunk when I turn 21, I will!
33. What song do you sing in the shower most often?
Don't sing in the showers, as I don't spend more time than I have to in the showers.
34. What did you fear was going to get you at night as a child?
Can't remember, as hard as I try... Maybe I never had one? Although I did wake up in secondary school, heart a-pounding, after a nightmare where I forgot to do my homework.
35. What's in your pocket right now?
Lint.
36. Last thing that made you laugh?
Reading a PM from a certain friend. *huggles*
37. Best bed sheets you had as a child?
My bedsheets have been pretty bland all my life... One colour and nothing more. Nothing too interesting to remember there.
38. Worst injury you ever had?
When I was about two years-old (or younger), my father was wiping me down before going out for dinner. He'd planted me on the kitchen counter, and my wandering hands slammed down on a hot water dispenser. Boiling hot water came shooting out onto my right calf, and as you can imagine, I screamed my little head off.
Mom ran in, scooped me up, blasted the huge boil that had sprung up on that area with cold water before my parents rushed me to the hospital. According to her, the nurses had to hold me down and slowly peel off the burnt skin.
I still have a big, oval-shaped scar on my calf from then. I'm glad it happened when I was really young, 'cause I sure as hell don't remember it now.
Other than that... as a toddler, I've fallen down the stairs before, after my greedy lil' nose smelled my mom's porridge. Right after that, while my mom left me on a bed while rushing to call a doctor (from the same hospital mentioned above), I rolled over and fell onto the floor. Again.
... ^^;
40. How many TVs do you have in your house?
Two.
41. Who is your loudest friend?
One of my college friends.
43. Does someone have a crush on you?
I wouldn't know about recently, but I did get a little note when I first transferred to my secondary school when I was about 14. I was the new girl and didn't know anyone, much less some mysterious guy who suddenly gave me a note. When I think about it, I still feel kind of bad for my response, but nothing says "not interested" better than throwing the note away right after reading it. ._.;
44. Do you wish on stars?
No... No reason why, just not something I've ever tried doing.
46. What is your favorite candy?
I don't know the brand, but those colourful jellies in cone-shapes that the supermarkets sell in packs. I remember when my mom used to mix all the different colours together in a bowl for us-- creating a world of colourful wobbly wonder-- that was when I knew, she was a Genius.
47. What song did you last hear?
Some background music from the .hack//LIMINALITY OST called Tokuoka.
48. What song do you want played at your funeral?
Hmm... Something that'll get everyone crying and sobbing their brains out, I guess. I can't even plan for my life in ten years, I can't imagine planning for my funeral.
49. What were you doing 12AM last night?
Sleeping! Can you BELIEVE it?! On every other freaking night, I would've written "On the computer", but just one night, which was last night, that ONE night-- I was asleep before 11.30PM!
50. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up this morning?
Foooooood...
.......I didn't eat much for dinner the previous night, mmkay?
On a separate note, these are so effing hawt.
I can imagine it now.
"Hey, mom, I'm going over to Jen's to connect her Cloud to my Sephiroth and we're going to play all day!"
1. How tall are you barefoot?
5'4". I remember how I eagerly wanted to be 5'6" just like Elisabeth and Jessica in the Sweet Valley High series. Bye, childhood dream.
