Humpty Dumpty, Kankles & More!

1. Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses,
And all the king’s men,
Couldn’t put Humpty together again.

He’s probably taking a break from all that walking. He has a big head after all and it can get pretty heavy.

2. If Mother Goose and Father Time had kids, what would they look like and what would they be named?
A goose with a beard. Now that’s one ugly kid. Name would be Hermione Weasley. Why? Because I just finished watching Order of the Phoenix on DVD and they are still on my mind.

3. Does Barbie have kankles?
Probably yes. She can’t very well be that perfect!

4. Have you ever been featured in a magazine?
Yes, when I was younger. Twenty years younger haha.

5. Did your parents keep a baby book for you? If so, how often have you looked through it?
Sadly no. They have better things to do back then than keep a book for me. There’s food, shelter and education. But I do keep a lot of baby books for my daughter so she can say yes to a future question such as this.

Ten on Tuesday – 10 Bad Habits You Can’t Quit

1. Read e-books late at night instead of sleeping. Because of this, I find it hard to sleep and always feel sluggish in the morning.

2. Squeeze the toothpaste in the middle. My husband hates this but I just keep on forgetting.

3. Leave the house at the last minute thinking I have plenty of time to kill. I always end up late, though.

4. TV series addiction. I get so affected too that I’m unable to function for days whenever a really good one ends.

5. Eat rice with pasta. What a pig! But I don’t feel full unless I ate a plate of rice even after eating a huge serving of pasta. As if I can burn burn belly fat simply by sitting all day.

6. Read my phone anywhere. Makes my eyes blurry and often than not, dizzy especially when I do it in the car.

7. Save newly downloaded files on my desktop. The result is that my desktop is so cluttered plus I’m sure I will lose all of them if ever my C: drive gets corrupted.

8. Talk inside the movie house. I just get excited that I can’t help but share my thoughts to whoever’s watching with me.

9. Leave my cellphone on vibrate so I miss a lot of phone calls and text messages. I drive my husband crazy with this habit because he always calls me when he’s out and instead of reaching me easily, he’ll have to dial our landline just so he can talk to me.

10. Obsession with Gong Yoo and Lee Min Hyo – both Korean actors.

6. I can’t think of anything to do this Labor day weekend.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to reading a good book, tomorrow my plans include attending a party and Sunday, I want to rest but I doubt I could since I need to meet a deadline by Monday!

Manic Monday #176

When and with whom was your first kiss?
My classmate when I was on first-grade. He gave me a quick kiss during our exchange gifts complete with snot. But the real one was from my first boyfriend in High School. Just a quick peck on the cheek too, very similar to my first grade experience but I remember being in heaven.

Do you believe that everything happens for a reason?
I try to or else we wouldn’t be able to cope if something doesn’t go right.

What would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
“Ready to party?” That’s because I believe that Heaven is a place where it can be what you want it to be. Since I love to party, it’s going to be a hip club 24/7
