Here's a survey I nicked off Livejournal. Please answer if you have time, I really like reading random things about my "blogmates."

Five Things You May Not Know About My Time in School:
1. I made a teacher cry when i was a high school freshman.
2. I failed Trigonometry twice.
3. I got kicked out of Ateneo so I had to transfer to St Scho for a year and then I went back to Ateneo.
4. I got kicked out because I failed Filipino and Environmental Science (the plant I had to take care of died because I didn't water it at all. Ever. Other people took pity and watered it for me but not regularly enough)
5. A Theology teacher sent me out when I was a high school junior, along with 8 boys. I spent most of my time throwing Skittles at the people inside.

Five Things You May Not Know About the Job/s I Have (or Had or Don't Have):
1. I was working for a really incompetent person before and lasted 2 months without pay.
2. I went through the motions of the Kumon employment process, but didn't show up at the interview.
3. I was scheduled for an interview at Summit but I got myself out of it.
4. I am a grade school writing club moderator (Grades 2-3) at an all boys school.
5. I am also helping out with a book.

Five Things You May Not Know About My Online Life:
1. I have always had the word "gossamer" in all of my online ... appearances.
2. I have been rabidly online since 1996, especially when my boyfriend left.
3. Two of my favorite college professors found my website when i was a college freshman, and one of them left messages in my guestbook. So embarrassing, since not all of the things I wrote about them were very flattering.
4. I used to be so obsessed with the color pink and butterflies, and churned out some pretty good (back then) layouts.
5. I have never used a fake name or tried to be anonymous.

Five Things You May Not Know About Where I Live:
1. Technically, I live in two townhouse units. We bought two and then smashed the wall dividing the two.
2. Therefore, we have 8 bathrooms.
3. My dad's office is a confusion of interests. He used to have those battery operated birds that drove us CRAZY. He still has fishing poles and random (fake) frogs and turtles lying around.
4. I live very near the airport so I hear e-v-e-r-y damn plane that lands or takes off.
5. I have no friends around here.

Five Things You May Not Know About My Home Life:
1. My dad and brother popping out of my closets to surprise me used to be a regular occurrence.
2. Throwing things at my brother is also a regular occurrence. He's so easily startled, it's fun.
3. My mom, my brother and I have the same taste in music. My dad doesn't even know the words to "Jingle Bells."
4. I am really close to my family. I would choose them over friends anytime.
5. My parents force me nonstop to go out, it's pretty funny.

Five Things You May Not Know that I Desperately Want:
1. For everything about my life with BJ to work out, emotionally speaking.
2. To study some more when I can afford it. I'd really like to get an MA degree.
3. A new laptop. It has to be light, pretty, and loaded.
4. A job, papers, and an apartment.
5. Balance.

Five Embarrassing Fannish Admissions I Have That You May Not Know:
1. I was obsessed with Jonathan Taylor Thomas for a long time. I wrote him around 4 letters before "he" finally wrote back. The depth of this fangirl-ness is enough for all five items. I was convinced he was going to fall in love with me if we met. Punyeta, never again.

Five Things You May Not Know About What I Do in a Typical Day:
1. I make a hobby out of holding my pee in. I know it's really bad but i'm also really lazy.
2. I sleep on the floor of my parents' room because I like it there.
3. I'm always in a housedress. In other words, daster. Hahaha. Cute ones though!
4. I've been listening to the Wicked soundtrack at least once each day for around 3 months now.
5. I go online for h o u r s. Obviously.

Bwahahahahaha!

Something's wrong with my blog layout. I changed the head banner but somehow also managed to screw up the blogger bar. Labo ng template.
