I didn’t want to repost facts on Facebook cuz there’s too much tagging going on. ahaha I did one with 16 before also, but I was bored. So here it goes! New info.
type in 25 random facts about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. Tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it’s because someone tagged me and as a result we can all now know more about each other…
1. I’m a little paranoid sometimes. I think it’s derived from all the psychological thrillers and horror movies that I’ve seen. My heart beats a little faster when- I get home to an empty apt and the lights are off, need to walk to my car in a structure at night, walk up stairs that have gaps, take a shower while I’m home alone, drive down dark streets (some crazy may run up to my car), etc. I’m also petrified of dolls, clowns, and large birds.
2. I’m extremely open-minded. I can take a lot of bullsh*t and try to understand things from different points of view, so if I’m pissed or actually offended- it must have been BAD. 90% of the time I’ll laugh it off.
3. I find it difficult to forgive. You shouldn’t have effed up in the first place. [ie. screwing your friends out of hundreds of dollars and not having the decency to apologize to them]. Second chances are for fools.
4. I try to avoid the drama. This could be the reason why a majority of my friends are guys. The girl friends that I do have, I love dearly. They obviously get me and vice versa.
5. I wish I could drift ahahaha. No really, I’m such a teenage boy! The first car I wanted was a Toyota Supra cuz it’s super sexxy! That would have been siiiiiiiiiiiick. But instead, I’m a proud member of the tC club!!!
6. When I was a kid, I loooooved the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers and I wanted to marry Tommy or Adam. I used to go over to my cousin’s or neighbor’s houses and we’d jump off furniture doing flying kicks and gymnastics, pretending to be Rangers. Gawd, I miss being a kid!
7. I hate PDA on campus, it’s disgusting. When my friend and I were waiting for drinks at Starbucks, there was a couple groping and making out in front of the water cups…very inconvenient. Get a room. Yuck. PDA at the mall is gross too; the only thing you should be fondling is the shirt you’re going to purchase. PDA at amusement parks, fairs, etc is more acceptable because waiting in line is boring, ahaha.
8. My lucky number! I’m incredibly superstitious. I hold my breath in tunnels, throw salt over my shoulder, wish at 11:11…among other various things. ahaha I don’t like taking my chances by NOT doing these things.
9. I never write my papers in the order that you’re supposed to write papers (Intro, Body, Conclusion). I tend to pull out quotes or paraphrase text, then I’ll go into analysis at the same time or after. Sometimes it’s super scattered, but in the end I find a place for everything I want to say (like a huge puzzle). I’m terrible at writing intros though…terrible.
10. I could have skipped the 2nd grade, but I didn’t because I was scared of the 3rd graders. Probably the dumbest mistake that I could have made! I think that ONE decision has set me back in life because [I THINK] if I had skipped grades, I would have been more motivated to over-achieve to get respect from the older kids…I could have been a lot smarter. We’ll never know.
11. I’m sentimental. I keep everything from movie tickets, wristbands, letters and even little notes. Literally, LITTLE notes…like the corner ripped from a notebook. I like keeping these things cuz they help me remember random things. I love going through old stuff. I love looking at the past.
12. I can rock the gayest and uncool instrument- the flute. La Fluta. It’s not completely shit cuz it’s made out of silver, but it doesn’t have the WOW power of the guitar or drums. When have you seen a flute in a rock band? hmmm? NEVER
13. Whenever I eat, I always save the best bite for last. Especially, steak, or any meat, and desserts! But sometimes I screw up and pick the wrong piece as the “best” and eat the REAL best bite before the end of my meal. That irks me.
14. I worked at my cousin’s wireless store one summer (I was 15) and the neighbor’s son (17) would come over to play my cousin’s guitar in the back of the store where I was working. He’d try to chat with me, but I thought he was awkward and nerdy and I barely even looked at the guy. Later, I come to find out that he had a transformation and became some hotsh!t dancer/bboy. Dang, don’t judge people! LOL
15. I love debates! I like being a part of any argument, really. Last year in one of my Asian Am classes, I kicked ass in the last debate of the year alongside my group. There’s no better feeling than putting people down with facts ahaha. We did our research (went above & beyond) and that definitely showed.
16. My mom used to tell me that I was too trusting and friends would take advantage of me. In retrospect, she was totally right. I was always getting the shit-end of things in middle school-high school. Now, I’m a little more careful about who I trust. It’s tough to tell where ppl’s loyalties lie.
17. Sometimes I feel jipped when I work hard, but I don’t get an immediate payoff. Over time, I’ve learned that you just gotta wait for things— you get bigger rewards the longer you wait and harder you work. Or that’s what I keep telling myself.
18. I like picking at scabs. ahahah seeee I’m like a little kid! It’s just satisfying for some reason and I think I kinda like the pain. Weird, I know.
19. I don’t like to think I’m better than anyone because that motivates me to work EXTRA hard and surpass my own expectations (which are set pretty high). But I’m never good enough, so the cycle is endless. This applies to many aspects of my life.
20. I love love love watching shows about medical mysteries and procedures. It’s so interesting to see the oddities in nature and advancements that medicine is making. (ie. Half Man, Half Tree. heart breaking). But looking at skin disorders makes me get goosebumps and itch all over lol.
21. I lack patience, but I love working with kids (the only people I have patience with are under 11 yrs old). I really cannot explain things to adults. At work, if someone speaks English and doesn’t understand something after I thoroughly explain it 2x, that person is borderline moronic. You can probably notice me losing my cool in certain situations, but my voice usually remains friendly.
22. I enjoy driving on sunny afternoons and late late at night when I’m not sleepy lol. During summer, I look fwd to cruising down PCH or the 5 South towards SD with my moonroof open and music blasting. It’s something that can only be done right in So Cal ahaha. Late night driving means going down empty freeways (which are usually packed) with just your headlights shining on the road. Chill.
23. In addition to the serenity of driving (#22), I actually have a bad case of road rage the rest of the time. I dread having to enter any asian plaza…I want to run over everyone. I’ve had some bad run-ins with clueless drivers & I’ve yelled at a couple people too. (also #21) Some folks are just dumb.
24. I suck at dieting. The longest I’ve stayed on a diet was 2 weeks ahaha. I also suck at working out, even though I feel hella good after working out. I’ll go on sprees and run/exercise, but I usually get lazy. Someone needs to drag my butt to the gym.
25. Every time something bad happens to me, I think that there’s something good that will negate it. I think karma has some kinda point system that keeps our luck and happiness in check. I’m finally starting to collect the good points this year : ]
