These are just the not-so-private facts about me. Just some of those that I'd like people to know without having to scare them away from me [hehehe]
- TEN FACTS ABOUT ME THAT NOT EVERYBODY KNOWS -
>> I'm so scared of cockroaches and thunder. Fear that (I think) I'm doing my best on working to overcome.
>> I never wear make-up. Not only that I simply don't like putting something on my face and I don't know how to apply it, I'm allergic to cosmetics. The last time I used make-up was in the 6th grade. I went home with a red and itchy face that lasted for more than a day.
>> When I'm studying like for exams, I always have a music playing in my room. The sound makes me more focused on what I'm doing and I can easily understand what I'm studying about. Weird, isn't it?! :)
>> I used to be so boyish - literally. I loved doing boy stuff more than the girly girl ones. I used to dress up like a boy. I
hated wearing skirts and dresses. If I was left with no choice but to wear either one during special occasions, I always put on shorts underneath. Too short to get noticed ;) It only ended when I turned 14 years old.
>> I had a fight with a boy same as my age when I was 9. It was not because I got myself into trouble. It was a boxing game I joined in during our
barangay's celebration of San Isidro and
I won!! That made me somewhat proud of myself knowing that I can actually do what boys can. But when my grandparents found out what I did later that evening, I got chewed out.
>> I can't sleep at night without wearing my pair of brown socks which I call MoiMoi. This may sound gross to you, but I seldom wash MoiMoi. I hate the fact that I have to sleep at night and it's still soaked. One time, my mother sneaked in to my room, grabbed MoiMoi while I was away and washed it. They all ended up laughing and teasing me when I was about to lay in bed that night and I cried like a kid because my socks
weren't dry yet.
>> I was already in 2nd year college when I found out that the word "
mustache" is actually the hair growing on the human upper lip. I know what it is called. What I didn't know was that the word is spelled as
m-u-s-t-a-c-h-e. I used to say it as it is written "
must`ache" (like headache) every time I'd encounter that word. I even once wondered what kind of illness is
mustache!! Wow, that was really pretty
dumb of me!! ;)
>> When it comes to
heart matters, I had my first crush when I was 13. His name is Ben. Before we became friends (that was not until we were in our Sophomore year), we hated each other so much. We were even brought one time to the school's Guidance Councilor's office to settle a very childish argument that made us the talk-of-the-class the next day. After that, we remained good friends up to date :)
>> I had my first boy friend at the age of 18 (if you'd consider that as one). It was an online-based relationship. We never met in person (never been touched, never been kissed), but the relationship lasted for four years!! And all those years, I never dated anybody nor did it even occur to me to go behind his back just because he wasn't around or we haven't met, yet. I
stayed true and faithful to him. He's an Arab, by the way and he's from Palestine. Just 5 months after the break-up, John came into my life :)
>> My first date ever, believe it or not, was with John - my husband :) I have never gone on a date before. I was too scared to accept invitations and during those times, I thought I was still too young to be going out with guys. Not to mention that I don't really like going out that much, not unless with family members or close friends (in group). I could only recall how nervous I was during our first few
private moments together. I was so scared I might do or say something wrong to him and displease him because everything was so new to me. I had no sufficient idea as to what was going on. I was clueless but at the same time, I was loving the fact that I was actually (already) learning and discovering new things
with him ;)

Well, there you go. Just ten but looks like I wrote more than a hundred. [Hahaha] I had fun, though. If you want, why not try it out yourself as well?! Tell your friends some things about you that they don't know, yet. They probably are just too shy to ask you ;) Have fun!!
