Six weird things about me:

1) I enjoy a drop of blood in my food

2) I can't sleep with anything on (even my underwear!)

3) I have been craving for roasted porcupine but my husband prohibits it

4) I love the smell of fart 5) I put a container out everytime it rains6) I keep cut fingernails to feed the ants

******************
How wonderful it would be if I could list down those things as what's weird about me. Well, sorry to disappoint you, folks! I'm not THAT weird. Here are the REAL 6 weird things about me:

1. I'm a morning person. I don't like waking up late and doing things later. I prefer starting my day in the morning - setting a right step ahead, you would say. The more important things will be attended to in the morning - laundry, studying, errands, etc. This is not weird. HOWEVER, if I get up on the wrong side of the bed, or at the wrong tick of the clock, I don't do it at all... No laundry, no studying, no errands. A bad start means tomorrow (manyana..). I'm not really into better late than never. It's "if I'm late, forget it!". Carpe diem or carpe manyana?

2. If you think you know me, then think again. Have you seen me burst into hysterical laughter? If you haven't, then you haven't seen the weird D yet. I may appear as a level-headed person but if the wrong button is pushed (not physically, you weirdo!), then I will break into this crazy laughter, voiceless and with tears in my eyes. My fellow friends during university days have seen me in this state. Some ex-colleagues were lucky enough (or should I say, unlucky?). And, how they stared in disbelief, looking at me laugh my head off!!! If someone somehow missed the joke, I'd be trying to explain in between laughs yet no one will understand a word I say.

3. Being a mother to four kids is rather exhausting. There are moments when I'd want to have my own time. Time alone shopping, time alone reading, time alone watching TV. HOWEVER, every time my husband and I have some time out on our own, I'd be thinking of the kids and wanting to rush home to check on them. Are they OK, have they eaten, are they up to no good??? So much for time alone... The thing is, they're always fine. I guess nothing will make me happier than being together with my loved ones. Then why bother leaving them??

4. You might have noticed the last word I used to describe myself on my blog: emotional. Let me tell you how bad I am. When I watch the television, regardless of what programme (reality shows, drama, movies, etc), an emotional moment can be defined as either a sad or happy ending. My main weakness is seeing someone succeed. This is not very weird but the catch is, regardless of how long (or short) I've had the TV on, or how often I've seen it, if it is a tear-jerking scene, then I'll need the tissue.

I remember switching on the TV on a Sunday afternoon in Malaysia and there was a replay of Cabaran Nescafe, or the likes. I have NEVER watched any of its shows and on that day, I caught the last 5 minutes. I didn't know who the guy was, what he had done, how he fared, but I witnessed him being told that he made it through for the next round. The bloke was jumping and shouting, and I was wiping my tears with the corner of my sleeves. Embarrassing!

5. I'm crazy over being economical. In what sense, you may ask. Well, instead of taking 3 trips to the kitchen to bring the things on the dining table, I'd try to stack them up and save a trip. Problem with this? Errr.. the stack falls and I've got ketchup on the carpet!! So much for being economical!

6. I can't stay awake long in a vehicle - regardless of whether it's moving or not. If I don't engange in a conversation, then I'll be nodding away. I may be quiet for only a minute, but that's enough to send me to lala land! Just imagine me behind the wheel and there's no one to talk to....
