    • Overheard at My Own Funeral
      • "You're a fly on the wall at your own funeral. What are people saying about you?"

        That's creepy. But before I answer this question, could I be like something else instead of a fly? I'll be damned if I get reincarnated as an insect!!! Back to the point, I think people would probably talk about how timid and shy I was as a kid coz I think that's how our neighbors knew me even though I'm the far opposite. And finally I guess the million-dollar question about my sexuality (how overrated!) would get answered. And by the way, I better see some familiar faces down there when this happens! I'll be haunting those who aren't! :)

    • If I Could Relive Any Day of My Life
      • If you could go back and relive one day of your life, which one would it be? And why?


        School bus

        Ah, the classic question. Funny cause I recently caught the movie 17 Again on HBO, anyways, I've done a lot of thinking on this and I'd probably choose a day when i was in early middle school, around grade 1 to 3. No day in particular. I've always reminisced those childhood days and how I would only remember very little portions. I wish I could see how I was as a kid even for a day only and how was everyone else back when I was still a child whether at home or at school. I'm thinking its always nice to remember the innocence and carefree attitude we had as kids... :)

    • What book could you read over and over?
      • The Twilight Saga

        You'll probably think this is a lame answer but I'll say it anyways: Twilight. Yes, the overrated, overhyped movie phenomenon. But as much as the movies were successes, I can say the movies don't really define the books. If you think the movies were awesome, then you're totally missing out on the books. If you say the movies suck, then i'd say try the books instead. That's how I love them. :) It's such an easy read plus it's nice falling in love with the characters all over again. That's why I chose the first one. All the nice lines, the giddy moments. If you're asking, I read the book twice already, the last time I think was before the movie came out. Anyways, I can definitely read it again even as punishment over and over! :)

    • Have a great summer
      • In our case, the yearbook doesn't really come out until after the end of school year so we don't really get to sign each other's yearbooks. But we do have a thing called slambook; no its not anything close to the burnbook on 'Mean Girls', its kind of a fun collection of contacts and friends where we answer questions about personal interests and about ourselves like our favorite color, first kiss, 'who's your crush?'. I know its a little lame but its middle school! :-) For the question though, I'm not sure if that's the right thing to ask for me since I'm not one of the popular kids at school. Its more of "will you let me sign in your yearbook?" hehe.. I was the geek who hangs out with girls, oh you get the point!

    • What I Like Most About My Job
      • Hehe.. this is really interesting just because my job is all i've been doing for the past 3 years. It has taken over my social calendar - not that i have a lot going on, and personal life so I have recently decided to resign. Took long enough, right? I'm an auditor BTW in one of the big accounting firms in the world (won't say what it is). Anyways to answer the question, I guess, I like the prestige and the sense of being a professional. Being respected and to just work with colleagues makes me feel relevant, most importantly, like i belonged. It may be all extremes but it definitely brought out the best in me and showed me what i'm capable of...
