six of my quirky ways

I've been tagged! With credit to the birthday gal, Geraldine!

RULES: Each person who gets tagged needs to write a blog post of their own 6 idiosyncrasies as well as clearly state this rule.after stating your 6 weirdness you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names at the bottom of the entry. dont forget to leave a comment on their tagboards that says “you’re tagged!” and tell them to read your blog for information as to what it means.

(idiosyncrasy: a characteristic, habit, mannerism, or the like, that is peculiar to an individual)

alright I'm well-known for my idiosyncrasies so here it goes:

1. my friends told me that I like to walk around in circles when I'm talking... well, I guess that explains 'beat around the bush'? or that I must be a Chinese scholar in my past life! anyhow, I'm told I just can't keep still while talking... swaying sideways, back and forth, etc. You get it, I can't stop moving!

2. I don't smile at cameras! Pourquoi? Je ne sais pas. I probably developed this symptom over time. I used to have big smiles on cameras as a kid. Now? not anymore. Perhaps only when I get to model for some toothpaste ad or else... wear my teeth gold? Not smiling is known to be a french thing... maybe that is why!

3. my hair never grow long! Or rather, I never grow my hair long enough... not beyond shoulder length. How many times have people asked me on this? I have no patience, that's all. The reason last time was b'cos the school doesn’t allow us to have our hair touching our collar. The longest length I had must be when I was only four. I used to wear long plaits down my waist... aeroplane ponytails and all! During fine dining training in school, my hair was barely a bun at all! I have the urge to have my hair cut whenever it curls up and gets messy at shoulder length!

4. That brings me to the next point, I never grow my nails! Same thing, I don’t like to see my dirt stuck under my nails so I always cut them before they grow long. My nails are always so short that you wonder if they don’t grow at all. That is b’cos I cut them fast! Pedicures? Manicures? Not for me. No nail polish too.

5. I forget things! I do suspect I have short-term memory lapse like Dory in Finding Nemo. I can forget which cup I was using the moment I put it down on the table after a sip. But don’t worry, I won’t forget people I know. Just that sometimes I can ask a question several times even that I do remember I’ve asked before, I just can’t remember your answer. My mind is like a sieve… perhaps that is selective memory.

6. you can’t shut me up! It’s something everyone know… my super talkative nature. If you have got something really important to say, you better pray that I had a sore throat or nothing can stop me from going on and on. I like to interrupt people in the middle of their sentences so poor people hardly get a chance to say anything. Having a conversation with me may seems like a battle for a chance to talk. I welcome you to get yourselves heard!
