Blame it on Eli ^_^
August 11, 2008 - Ive been tagged! Im it! Im it! And now its my task to post about 5 fun facts about me.
Eli started this (so for those whom I have shared this wicked chain, blame it on Eli *grin*). Seriously, I was really having a hard time thinking what to post. I mean I want my 5 fun facts to tell my readers/friends something they don’t know. But for the past 3 months (almost) of blogging, I have posted a lot of things what leads my readers/friends how chocoholic, life-aholic, bookaholic and currently how blogaholic I am. So that’s why I chose to come up with something new.
And with the help of thorough research, concept mapping, brainstorming and clustering, I now present to you my 5 fun facts:
Numbah 1: Multiple Intelligences Test
When Ms. hazel administered the
Multiple Intelligences Test (MIT) to me and my classmates, I was so excited. I love taking personality tests. It's my way of understanding the confusing me. hehehe. So here's my result.
Purple - Naturalist - 8 points
Green - Intrapersonal - 8 points
Red - Verbal/Linguistic - 7 points
Blue - Spatial/Visual - 7 points
Light Blue - Musical - 6 points
Orange - Logical/Math - 4 points
Fuschia - Bodily Kinesthetics - 4 points
Yellow - Interpersonal - 3 points
Note: the image attached above is my result in
bgfl.org while the points are my result from Ms. Hazel's
Numbah 2: The Waterloo
In relation to the result of MIT, you may also notice that i got low in bodily kinesthetics and math. yup! both are my waterloo. I am not comfortable dancing. although it's weird because I always get picked to dance for playground demonstration, linggo ng lahi, school anniversary and even nutrition month. Weird.
In the case of Mathematics - I really hate stffs that have something to do with equations, graphs, and Mathematics. PERIOD.
Numbah 3: For the love of words and utterances
Hajimimashite? Watashiwa Kyasarin desu. Anata no onamae wa?
Fascinating. Interesting.
I really love learning new language. Right now Im learning nihongo (just one of the effects of watching too much animes). And if I am going to have a chance to learn other languages aside from Nihongo, I'd love to learn french, Spanish, Mandarin, hangul and Malay.
Numbah 4: Non-wife material
Loud and clear. i can't cook, wash&iron clothes, and sew. My papa would always say "You are a very good prospect for murder. Your husband will die of hunger." But hey! we have take-out now, right? :)
Numbah 5: Alone in the gloomy dark space
I cannot stand being alone in a gloomy dark space. I cant even move. I have my reasons.
One: My eyes vision grade is 120+ - 140+, nearsighted. This one is acceptable. It'll take a lot of time for my eyes to adjust.
Two: When it's dark, there are ghosts. I am very sensitive when it comes to the energy surrounding me. Good thing my third eye is cooperative. (It doesnt work *wink*)
Three: The last reason is that the eeeewwwy, yucky, cockroach(es) appear. i hate the disgusting mere sight of them.
So these are my 5-lengthy-fun-facts (I hope you guys wont use it against me, especially the number 5). Well, I've done my part. It's now time to pass the ball. And the ball goes to:
Jerjan
Hope you guys will have a good time cracking your heads about your 5 fun facts.
And don't forget to blame it on Eli.
hehehehehe

playing favorites
Today I came to realize that I have so many likes and loves. It didn’t occur to me before I started scanning the pictures I have taken. So this entry is all about my top (_) favorites, and the reason/s behind it. and yeah, there's SURELY more to come...
Exhibit 1: Random pictures
this was taken last June 23, 2008 around 7:30 am.
look what typhoon Frank did to our College Plaza :(
i love taking random pictures! random pictures always tell stories, unpredictable stories for that matter...
Exhibit 2: Chocolates are my drugs! ^_-
Ferro rocher, anyone?
(thanks Jay)i am genetically engineered to be addicted to chocolates. and I'll bet 90% (of whatever i have) I'm going to die of diabetes mellitus. well what can i do, i cant help it. i am conditioned to it just like Pavlov conditioned the dog to the ringing of a bell. hahaha.. i know i exaggerate a bit on that part. well what can i say? hmmm.. if I'm going to enumerate the reasons why i love chocolates my top ten reasons would be:
10. Better than committing crimes
(need i say more?)
9. Always more at the store
(so true! anywhere and everywhere!)
8. Makes my mouth happy
(..and waters)
7. Something fun to do alone
(hmmmm.. and much better to be done alone.. heheheh )
6. Cheaper than Prozac
(i am not a fan of prohibited drugs, so when i want to get HIGH, i chomp my sugars)
5. Surprise centers
(there are always surprises in every chocolate)
4. Hides easily in my pockets
(...nobody will know i have one and i dont intend to share.. LOL)
3. Two words - mood swings
(i hope MEN will read this!)
2. Comes in pretty boxes
(sooo true! and im crazy enough to collect it)
1. BEING ADDICTED WONT GET YOU ARRESTED!
(i know you agree with this..)
Exhibit 3: something new..
"Miss Demeanor"
Exhibit 4: Long journey
"ang dalan pakadto sa baybay"
i am a WanderWoman. i take to the heart the quote life is a joruney, not a destination. i am laidback and low-key, i like to take my time and savor each moment. if that means taking the long way to get somewhere, ill do it, especially if its packed with plenty of things to see along the way.
Exhibit 5: The I-love P.S. I Love You Series (the Book)
that book who stole my heart
(and money too! i spent all my allowance for this!)
ooooohh!! i really really love this book (even though i have not yet finished reading it!). i just love everything about it. there is something about its plot and characters that made me love the book even if it has the usual, tragic-ending story. i could relate to Holly (the main character of the novel). we have the same childish attitude and for sure we have the same type of guy: understanding, patient, adventurous and mature. the type of guy who would cater and even control the mood swings and tantrums.
Exhibit 6: The I-love P.S. I Love You Series (the Movie)
Gerard Butler (my ultimate crush) with Hilary Swank
hmmmm.. its the adaptation of the book. i fell in love with this one first before the book. i watched this film together with my sister. and in the whole duration of the film, i was either laughing or crying, crazy huh? although there are parts of the book that has been altered, like adding a new character, i can still say that the film director did justice to the product of art of ms. Cecilia Ahern. and oh! how i daydreamed for a few weeks to mean my Gerard Butler and my Jeffrey Dean Morgan or my own "Irish" men!
Exhibit 7: The I-love P.S. I Love You Series (the Song)
curious why i this song is on the exhibit? here's a copy of the lyrics
I Love You Till the End
by: the Pogues
I just want to see you
When you're all alone
I just want to catch you if I can
I just want to be there
When the morning light explodes
On your face it radiates
I can't escape
I love you 'till the end
I just want to tell you nothing
You don't want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Why don't you just take me
Where I've never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you 'till the end
I just want to be there
When we're caught in the rain
I just want to see you laugh not cry
I just want to feel you
When the night puts on it's cloak
I'm lost for words don't tell me
All I can say
I love you 'till the end 
isnt it romantic? hopefully i can find a guy who will sing this song to me on our wedding! know anyone? tell him to send an application letter, curriculum vitae, and full body shot picture and mail it to me immediately! LOL
Exhibit 8: Crowning Glory
crowns, anyone?
this shirt will always remind me of my friends from Nanyang, Singapore.. how i miss being called "Princess". i miss you guys and i love you all.. i cant express what i really feel inside in this blog.. reminiscing the moments with you guys is hard to do at this moment... i dont want another flash flood in Philippines! hahahah... but really.. i do miss you all and you will always have this space in my heart.
Exhibit 9: Rabbit's Foot
Wabby and Rabby
My ever comfy bedroom slippers! they ease my tired, calloused feet everyday. the mere thought that you have to wear heels (mine is 3 inches) 4x a week is already tiring.. my wabby and my rabby are my "foot spa".
Exhibit 10: From A to ZzZzZs
future teacher?
who doesnt like restoring energy? i dont think a person like that exist. so just like now after this, i cant wait to make love WITH my bed.. take note: i said WITH not IN. two phrases conveys different meanings. the level of explicity really differs. Sleep is one of my favorite hobby. i get to face my nightmares bravely, all alone and i get to dream about everything i want plus my body rest from whole day of thinking and walking back and fro. loving sleep isnt a crime, fellow, but oversleeping is.
... and since i dont want to oversleep tomorrow, i end my blog entry for this day. i hope i didnt intimidate you (whoever you are! ^_^) in someways after al the things that i have shared. how about you? can you share to me what are your top 10 favorites? mail me, i'd like to hear it!
ta-ta for now!
Of love and other demons,
Cathie
