:(
Pam tagged me. I figured it will be nice to post something like this here so...
THE RULES
In the 8 facts about [name], you share 8 things that your readers don’t know about you. Then at the end you tag 8 other bloggers to keep the fun going.
– Each blogger must post these rules first.
– Each blogger starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
– Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
– At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
– Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.
And so here they are.
- I got my first ever pair of Chucks today. Seriously. They are my first ever pair. When I found out I got into Rutgers (which was, what, two months ago), I kept saying that I would buy myself a celebratory pair of Chucks. For some reason, I never did. Now, I finally got them. Yeheeey.
- I'm... religion-less. I don't want to say that I'm an aetheist because I think I know that there is a Supreme Being. I guess I'm just looking for a god I can relate to. Does that make sense? No? Sorry.
- I'm allergic to lipstick. And lip gloss. I don't know why, but my lips swell up like crazy when I wear some so I never do.
- The real reason I stopped smoking is because I started feeling out of breath. I got worried so I quit. On my really bad days, I still pick up a cigg and smoke, but when I lie down to sleep, I find that I can't breathe. It's sad, I know. [And that is why, kids, you shouldn't start smoking at age 11 like I did.]
- I don't watch a lot of tv. I usually turn it on, if I turn it on at all, just so I can have background noise. I would enjoy listening to my Zen more than I would watching tv.
- I want to live by the beach. It's sounds incredibly stupid, but I'd give up all the world's riches just to be able to see a wonderful sunset everyday.
- I get really, really pissed off when the people I meet tell me my English doesn't have an accent to it. I mean, what does that even mean? And is that even a compliment?
- I hate talking on the phone. The people I enjoy talking to, I don't even talk to at all. We stay on the line and say nothing... Somehow, there is no need to.
There they are, papitos. The eight lovely things I think you should know about me.
---------------Last night, I was so angry that I couldn't sleep. I was so angry that I was crying. And a part of me was praying, praying really hard, to make it all go away. For the first time in a very, very long time, I felt helpless.

Randoms things about me
I'm Kitten :)
I get a year older every 17th of August. I am a Leo, and I carry all traits associated with that zodiac.
Right now, I'm twenty years old and I'm loving it. They say we're only as young as we feel. I feel like I'm five.
I would never leave the house without my Zen and my E2. The latter connects me to the world; the former takes me away from it.
If I were to choose a word to describe my life, that word would be
crazy.
I am in love with the stars. I am in love with the rain.
I am a Rutgers University student, and I want to graduate with an English degree. An English-Psych double major would be nice. An English-TCert would be even better.
I want to be a teacher. I want to be writer. I want to be both.
I thrive on indie and emo. Mae, The Spill Canvas, Copeland and Daphne Loves Derby - these are the guys that I listen to. I listen to other bands here and there, but mostly those are the bands I follow. That being said, I'm a mainstream moron.
There's no feeling more lovely than being carried away. People don't usually think of me as somebody spontaneous, but I like being swept away as much as the next girl.
I fall in love easily, but it is really hard for me to fall out. Really hard.
I am very fragile.
I am tolerant of almost everything except one thing: intolerance.
I am an extensive reader. I thirst only for meaning, nothing else.
I love my friends <3
I am extremely spiritual but not religious.
Things I want to do in my life time
Get a job.
- Save up enough money to go back home -
wherever that is if I ever had one before I'm 40.
- Write a book.
- Sing for a Disney movie.
- Buy a house on top of a hill.
- Go bunjee jumping.
Travel halfway around the world.
- See Italy.
Find the one person who makes my heart beat faster and slower at the same time.
Draw and paint.
Learn how to play Sudoku.
- Volunteer for American/Philippine Red Cross or UNHCR.
Quit smoking.
