The New 40 Things About Me
Before I enlist, I should take a moment to get to know myself even better, and to let you guys know me a little better. So, here goes:
1. I am a sentimental and nostalgic person. I like to reminisce the past and often wish that I can rewind time to go back to my primary school days.
2. Because of that, I hate to throw away things. I believe that old/spoilt/faulty items have souls too. Discarding them would hurt their feelings and it also means memories thrown away, one less item to revoke my nostalgia.
3. I have a soft-spot for crayfish. Just cannot resist the temptation of crayfish pasta or crayfish noodles whenever I dine in restaurants.
4. The sight of faulty escalators annoys me
5. I weigh 60KG now.. fat fat.. sigh..
6. My waist is now 31 inches.
7. I am a petty person. I will secretly observe who are those that takes the initiative to wish me "Happy Birthday", "Merry Christmas" or "Good luck for NS" and those that did not do so.
8. But thou shall not bear a grudge against those who forgot. Yet, like Singapore's stand towards the Japanese Occupation, I will "forgive, but not forget".
9. I want to take up a sport during NS or during my university days. Maybe a martial art or competitive walking.
10. I hate making phone calls. It is somewhat in between virtual and reality which I am not really used to. It's either conversing face-to-face or talk via MSN messenger.
11. How others perceive me is important to me. I want to know how important I am to them.
12. I am hoping to get a PSC/Ministry of Foreign Affairs/SPH scholarship
13. Once I get a scholarship, I hope to study mass communications/journalism and/or Chinese Literature in Taiwan
14. If not, I would be glad to settle for a place at Nanyang Technological University to study mass communications.
15. I love 鱼片米粉
16. I realise a lot of people misunderstood me.. I may be portraying this image to the world which is not a good representative of my inner self.
17. For example, I am really not concern about losing all my hair when I enlist.
18. Or I do feel hurt when you guys hurl insults at me. Or make sarcastic remarks at me.
19. Maybe these are retribution for what I have done, so I am changing.
20. I no longer sing those bubble-pop female songs by Jolin Tsai, Coco Lee or Cyndi Wang. Instead, I am singing Zhang Dong Liang's, Cai Min You's or Alan Ke You Lun's songs, the more "manly" songs.
21. I no longer dance para-para. I prefer Dance Dance Revolution now.
22. I <3 Topman shirts!!!
23. I love Fried Mars Bar served at New York New York!!! Super sinful!! All the calories... takes probably a 10-km run to burn them all.
24. Sushi-Go-Round, Bloxorz and Thin Ice on Miniclips.com are my favourite games this year..
25. I feel lonely. I really need a soulmate.
26. I like clubbing, even though I am not a frequent clubber.
27. I have 3 crushes since J1... including the classmate I mentioned about the other time.
28. Right now, I still have a crush on her.. but I haven't confessed to her yet..
29. I am still having sore throat, cough and flu as I am typing this... and I am 16 hours away from my enlistment...
30. I still haven't finished "Soul Mountain" by Gao Xing Jian. I bought the book when I was primary 5 for the sake of showing off to others that I read a book that is awarded the Nobel Literature Pirze. Fortunately I did not manage to read past Chapter 6 each time I picked up the book, as Chapter 6 onwards there are a lot of explicit scenes.
31. Right now, I am stuck at Chapter 52 of the book.
32. I have close to 1000 songs in my iPod and 901 songs on my computer.
33. I am actually quite excited about National Service. It gives me a reason to start anew and change part of myself to be a better person.
34. I did consider opening a floral shop with my mum since she's interested in floral arranging. I don't mind being my own boss. =)
35. My phone for NS use will be a Samsung X430.

36. Current favourite singer: Amy Winehouse
37. I am not very worried about National Service. Seriously. Just go in with an open mind. =)
38. I've yet to buy Sodagreen's latest album "Incredibly Beautiful" 《无以伦比的美丽》and books on human behaviour and economics. And Christmas is coming.. *hint hint*
39. I used to hate Rihanna's "Umbrella", but ever since clubbing at Attica for post-prom, I fell in love with that song.
40. Thanks for all your well wishes. I will take care of myself in NS. So don't worry too much about me. Concentrate on buying me Christmas gifts! =)
