Day Two: Nine things about yourself.
What makes me ME.
1. My love for reading
- Reading has to be in my blood, it's like i cannot survive a day without reading. Give me anything at all, newspaper, novel, article etc, and I'll happily read it. And I can read the same thing again and again and still won't get bored. One bad habit - I must read while I'm eating. And then i really really really HATE it when someone disturbs me while I'm reading, i find it very annoying. it's also hard for me to put down a book once i start reading it, it's like i'll be dying to know to ending, so I cannot wait to finish reading the book.
Dust Devil - One of my all time favorite novel. Too bad Mum accidentally gave it away :(
2. i TALK a lot :)
- talking is my passion , all started from a story telling competition i joined when i was 10. Oh wait, no.. It actually started the moment i was born (according to mum).. She said i cried like nobody's business, for no particular reason :p I'm also good at being sarcastic (thanks to debate)
3. i am emotional, and no..i don't think that is a bad thing :)
- let's say you are watching a TV show, and then it's advertisement time, and you switch to another channel..there you have a sad scene...you don't know the storyline, all you know is that something sad is happening. Will you cry? Most of you wont, but I will.. So i get this -OVERLY SENSITIVE- label, which i don't mind at all.. Why do I cry some may ask? It's because i can immediately connect with people's plight and emotion.. That is exactly why i find great joy in helping people and making them smile :)
4. First Impression
- I don't warm up to people very easily. I'm quite a shy person and will always be assumed as snobbish. Plus that with the fact that I don't really like to smile. So i don't blame people when they tend to have a negative first impression on me. But once you get to know me, u will realize how wrong your initial judgment was :)
5. Animals!!
- i ABSOLUTELY love animals!! Last time when we used to stay in Batu Pahat, i had a lot of pets. Countless number of dogs, the closest one to me was Lucy who gave birth to 6 adorable puppies. I witnessed the whole giving birth process, it was amazing :) The puppies were so naughty, they used to tear our clothes and destroy all our shoes :p But when I see all of them hugging each other and sleeping after having a good bath, I know everything is worth it :) Then i also had 2 tortoise, Topay and Blackie. These two ended up in my porch during some flood, and refused to leave, so we started taking care of them :) The last pet I had was Snow Bell, 1 cat that came to our house looking for food, and then decided to make our house a permanent 'port'. I was very fond of Snow Bell, and this kitty was pampered like hell, used to get sooo much of Friskies and meat until it became fat and lazy :P I enjoyed my evening walks carrying Snow Bell on my shoulders, just like a baby :) Too bad, we had to leave poor Snowie in BP when we shifted to KL :( I really miss having a pet, that is why i get super excited when i see cute cats and dogs :)
6. Vegetarian
- Was never a big fan of meat to begin with, but like most people out there, i cannot resist a good plate of Chicken Rice and also Bak Kua :p On 19th February 2007, i stopped eating meat cold-turkey. Initially, it was not easy at all, and since I was staying in hostel, it was not easy to get vegetarian food. So my diet everyday was - rice, dhal, tauhu sambal. And there were times where i bought some food, got back to hostel, and right before eating i see some meat in my food, and it goes straight into the dustbin. And then there was an issue of temptation - when your friends go to KFC and all you can eat is fries, or when u pass by a shop selling Bak Kua, serious temptation i tell you. But I kept my resolve strong :) 4 years have passed and now i can proudly say, the urges and temptations are barely there :) And being a veg is good, i feel better knowing that there is no foreign blood in my body and that no animals had to suffer and die to fill my stomach :)
7. L.O.V.E
- I love my family and friends a lot! Well, who doesn't right? :) But yeah, I'm quite protective about those I love, and will do anything i can for them :) And what i dislike most is when someone says unpleasant things about them. I cannot tolerate that at any cost!
8. Hot Tempered Missy
- People close to me will be well aware of the fact that i am a very hot tempered person. Since young, I have difficulty in controlling my temper. Not a good thing at all. Recently I've started doing yoga, so when someone tries to piss me off, I do the "patience yoga". It has helped a lot, but still sometimes I tend to snap, that time memang tak sempat wanna do yoga all :P Don't be afraid of me though, I'm nice to you IF you are nice to me. So stay nice and you won't see the Mr.Hyde in me :)
9. Causes
- there are many causes i am very much passionate about. All in the name of humanity. I am a registered organ donor, and have been trying my level best to make people do the same. I feel i have the responsibility to contribute what I can to this world. The first step was being a vegetarian, then organ donation. When i complete my LLB, i would like to register myself as a volunteer in SPCA(my long time dream). I am also very passionate about human rights, and justice (one of the reason why i choose to become a lawyer)
So there you go, 9 things about me.. I might be just a regular girl, but still, I came on earth with a mission - to make my journey here worthwhile. I learn new things about myself everyday and I try my level best to be the best I can :)
