Count with me ah-hahahaha

Cool little survey from plhu's site. It took me quite a while, as most surveys do, because I couldn't really think of enough to say. All lists are not written in order of increasing or decreasing magnitude of whatever.

TEN RANDOM THINGS ABOUT ME
1. I prefer squatting toilets to sitting toilets, when out. I get grossed out by toilet seats.
2. I like the smell of earwax. (I can hear people eewing in disgust)
3. I have this bony lump that's growing out the back of my head. (X-rayed it once and it was just bone, so my doctor said not to worry. I like to think I could turn into a unicorn one day XD)
4. I fell off a merry-go-round when I was really little and my front tooth went through my lower lip. And my mom didn't send me to a doctor, the horror. But it healed nicely anyway.
5. I got a migraine so bad in Sec Three I had a white spot (a scotoma!) in my right eye and vomited like mad. (Now I really should think of non-medical random things)
6. I've watched The Land Before Time at least 35 times. (There was a point in my life where I would watch it twice every day)
7. I used to drive teachers crazy in primary school because I was really naughty, up to the point where most teachers in the school knew my name. This was how I learnt the meaning of "notorious".
8. I always wear my left shoe before my right.
9. I screamed so bad when I went on a Viking ship for the first time that the controller had to stop it to let me get off. I have an insane fear of heights.
10. I wear my watch on my right wrist even though I'm right handed, because I don't like to conform.

NINE WAYS TO WIN MY HEART
1. Know what I want even when I don't say it, because I'm a high-context communicator. That's why I love my mom, coz she knows what I want even when I don't say it. Take a hint.
2. Accept me the way I am, and not try to change me in drastic ways.
3. Have good manners.
4. Like the things I like i.e. anime, other Jap-related stuff, fantasy books, etc.
5. Have a good head on your shoulders.
6. Don't ask for too much. I don't ask for much either. (who am I kidding, look at this list)
7. Have a good listening ear.
8. Pamper me. (Goodness I sound like a woman)
9. Install your own remote-controlled pacemaker in me in a secret operation after knocking me out with triazepam. Ok this is rubbish. Just don't annoy me, and that would be a good starting point. Refer to WAYS TO ANNOY ME.

EIGHT THINGS I WANT TO DO BEFORE I DIE
1. Finish all the fantasy series I'm currently following. Robert Jordan had better not die.
2. Provide for my parents when they retire and let them live comfortably.
3. Go to Japan. And eat lots of raw fish.
4. Become a happy (i.e. successful) doctor.
5. Write up an Advanced Medical Directive, the irony. Also in the same vein, make a will.
6. Get my very own lightsaber and Darth Vader suit.
7. Have a last meal with my close friends.
8. Be sleeping when the time comes.

SEVEN WAYS TO ANNOY ME (There are too many)
1. Leave the toilet seat down and make me feel obliged to pick it up.
2. People propping their feet/legs on my chair in the lecture theatre, cinema, bus, etc drive me nuts. Especially if they shake their legs. Grr.
3. Talk like Phua Chu Kang.
4. Hide library books.
5. Ignore me when I'm trying to be friendly.
6. Say dumb things, like totally airheaded things, when I'm being serious. And not stopping when I ask.
7. Push me from the back when I'm queuing up to get into a bus or MRT.

SIX THINGS I BELIEVE IN
1. Myself.
2. Luck.
3. The supernatural.
4. A higher power that sees and knows everything.
5. Karma.
6. That a lot of people don't agree with the things I believe in and I don't believe a lot of the things that people believe in, but that it's all right. Just don't force me to believe what you believe in.

FIVE THINGS I'M AFRAID OF (again, too many)
1. Losing my parents. Or any close friend.
2. Heights.
3. Myself and my overactive imagination.
4. Losing my memory. Because I depend on my memory, a lot.
5. Disappointing myself and people who believe in me.

FOUR OF MY FAVORITE ITEMS IN MY ROOM
1. Gundam SEED stuff: Athrun and Shinn rare photo cards, Shinn and Rey pencilboards, SEED figurines, Freedom and Justice Gundams. (haha I cheated) If strictly one item, I'd say Athrun rare photocard.
2. Horatio "Haro" Halliwell, Huge Hungry Hamster.
3. My comforter: 49% down, 51% feather, 100% bliss.
4. Ayumi Hamasaki album collection.

THREE THINGS I DO EVERYDAY (how uninteresting)
1. Brush my teeth, wash my face, bathe, comb my hair half a million times, drink water, eat, talk rubbish (all the boring stuff)
2. Talk to my mom.
3. Worry about the time.

TWO THINGS I WANT TO DO RIGHT NOW
1. Finish this survey and go back to drawing Athrun. Mwahaha.
2. Make the holidays longer.

ONE PERSON I WANT TO SEE RIGHT NOW
1. Hmmmm. Lacus? No, a real person would be... Wen Jiabao. I want to slap him. More politically correct answer: No one in particular, actually.
