Tagged!

I got tagged in Facebook more than three times for this exercise which is why I’m sharing this to everybody today. I wanted to answer the questionnaire seriously but as I was typing away the first tags, I got tired and decided to just write what comes in mind my first.

Here goes…

Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

(To do this, go to "notes" under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.)

1. I love my siblings to the max.
2. I always read the Entertainment section first in the daily newspaper.
3. I do have Hypothyroidism (Hashimoto's Disease) and that is the reason why I am so chubby.
4. I love traveling.
5. I am an obsessive-compulsive freak.
6. I do believe in Santa Claus.
7. I do love to swim and breaststroke is my forte.
8. I love writing. You should see my paper and cards collection.
9. I love sending greeting cards to friends and families. I never forget a birthday even anniversaries. You will definitely receive a greeting (online, post or a call) on your special day.
10. I love taking pictures. I consider them my treasures. I cannot leave home without a camera.
11. I still heart Joseph Joachim De Leon.
12. I do love good food with good conversations. Lunch/dinner for me can last for more than two hours with good friends.
13. I love watching movies. I always go for the first full show during opening day.
14. I heart dark chocolates.
15. I collected the Sweet Dreams Series during Elementary and High School days.
16. If I have been away in the Philippines for a long time, the first viand that I would like to eat is chicken pork adobo and pritong galunggong!
17. I am a gadget person in moderation. I would love to have the latest gadgets if it will serve a purpose in my day-to-day activities.
18. I still keep my childhood toy named Niño.
19. I am such an emotional person that I cry easily.
20. Since I so love my schools, I can still sing the school hymn with vigor and enthusiasm.
21. I heart Danny McCoy, Seth Cohen and Nate Archibald.
22. I am always on the lookout for the best Chocolate Cake.
23. I have a small pillow as my security blanket when I sleep.
24. I love wearing high-heeled shoes.
25. My favorite scent comes from Ralph Lauren.
    

The result? Pretty much what I am in a nutshell!

Where in the Philippines?

My Lakbayan grade is C!

How much of the Philippines have you visited? Visit the site created by Eugene Villar and find out at Lakbayan.

I'm not really surprised about getting a C! I have not seen much of the Philippines, especially down south. You'll definitely laugh at my reasons. Just to give you one - it is way expensive to travel in our country rather than go to the nearest Asian country.

Though recently, I've been meaning to see the rest of the Philippines (hopefully!) before going to another country. Do you think I'll be able to add more places before the year-end?

So how much of the Philippines have you traveled? Tara na, biyahe tayo!

Feng Shui Horoscope

I got an email regarding horoscopes from Noellie and since it’s the beginning of a new year, I decided to check out the attached file. The questions were not hard but very intriguing. The results are below...

"8", This is how many close friends you have in your lifetime. You are a laid back person. You are spontaneous and like to please people.

Hmmm… a blossoming love life?! Yaiks!

What do you think?

Chocolate Chip Cookie

According to some online quiz at least.

Chocolate Chip lovers are loyal and dependable. You're probably a bit of a traditionalist and, therefore, may find it difficult to try new things. Family and friends are very important to you and you work hard to maintain connections among your loved ones. You have a small group of friends you've known forever and spend time with regularly, and you are the one everyone comes running to for advice. You relish your role as the nurturer and comforter, and your friends repay you by gently reminding you to take care of yourself -- along with everyone else!

What's Your Cookie Personality?

12 Step Program of Recovery for Web Addicts

I will have a cup of coffee in the morning and read my PAPER newspaper like I used to, before the Web.

I will eat breakfast with a knife and fork and not with one hand typing.

I will get dressed before noon.

I will make an attempt to clean the house, wash clothes, and plan dinner before even thinking of the Web.

I will sit down and write a letter to those unfortunate few friends and family that are Web-deprived.

I will call someone on the phone who I cannot contact via the Web.

I will read a book...if I still remember how.

I will listen to those around me and their needs and stop telling them to turn the TV down so I can hear the music on the Web.

I will not be tempted during TV commercials to check for email.

I will try and get out of the house at least once a week, if it is necessary or not.

I will remember that my bank is not forgiving if I forget to balance my checkbook because I was too busy on the Web.

Last, but not least, I will remember that I must go to bed sometime... and the Web will always be there tomorrow!
