24 facts about me

I’ve been tagged by Jean which means I’m supposed to reveal 24 facts/things/habits about myself then tag six other people. Here goes:

1. The circumference of my head as measured from 2cm above my eyebrows is 52cm. (Yes, you bastards can laugh all you want.)

2. I have nine toe nails. My right big toe doesn’t have one because it’s been kicked out too many times during football. At least, that seems the case.

3. My dad used to be a pastor. Fell to the ways of the world, as they like to say, then crashed and burned. No big loss to the Christian community, I can assure you.

4. If I spy a fish soup stall that I’ve never tried before, chances are that I’ll try it.

5. To me, the existence of karaoke is a scourge on our planet which should be eradicated as soon as possible. This is partly because I sing like a cow.

6. Of all my girlfriends past and present, only one didn’t wear specs.

7. I listen almost exclusively to male singers.

8. I staunchly support Newcastle United in the English Premier League though it has caused me much grief in recent seasons.

9. I still have no idea what I’m doing in advertising.

10. If I could choose an alternative career, it would be that of a deep sea explorer. Not the type that dons wetsuits and scuba gear, the type who sits in a submersible and goes around trying to catch weird fish with those crane-redemption-like appendages.

11. I don’t know why I blog.

12. I can’t cycle with one hand off the handlebar for any amount of time which means that if my nose starts itching halfway through a ride, that’s the way it’s gonna stay.

13. I won’t eat prawns unless they’re fried as fritters or used in dim sum.

14. The only time I’m not sleepy is when I’m sleeping.

15. I trip over my words at times. Not because my brain is moving too quickly for my mouth but because it’s not moving at all.

16. I would like to own a VW Golf someday.

17. Thunder and lightning. Very very frightening. So my vote went elsewhere.

18. I love live music. Except if it’s in a KTV lounge. See fact #5.

19. I suck at drinking games whether it’s 5-10, dice etc. See here.

20. I play the guitar and moo to myself whenever I’m alone at home. Softly, of course.

21. I can go for months without reading a single book.

22. My best friends are those I can spend hours with without saying a word. You know who you are.

23. As far as possible, I avoid touching food with my hands – I have perfected the art of eating KFC with a fork and spoon.

24. I don’t know myself well enough cos thinking up these 24 facts was an absolute pain!

And I tag the six others on my blog list other than Jean. They don’t read my blog though. I’ll have to text them. The assholes.
