Ready or Not - List of 10


March is always hectic at work. We have this annual event that takes its toll on everybody. Thus there hasn't been much time for actual writing on here. For a more personal turn of things, Insomniac tagged me and here I am..

First of all, there are a few rules for this tag to work properly:

- I post 10 random things about myself (as I type this now, I haven't completely settled on which 10, so we'll see how that one comes out). It's tough you know, going personal without making people freak out..
- Then I choose 5 tagees - naturally I gotta give them the heads up.
- I can't cheat by tagging the tagger.
- I should play nice and shout to the tagger and let them know I answered.

Okay I need a bit more time to settle on numbers 6 and 9. So I'll start off with the tagees.

Munqy - I bet 10 random things about the Munqs would be uber interesting.
Frank's Owner - I can't get enough of his blog - whenever the blogging rate is decent that is :P
Mohaly - his blog is the epitome of brain food.
Jade - I love Jade's self expression & vivid imagery.
Inky - One of my bestest friens out there.

I - I detest fantasy movies. I never get what's the point behind them. That inevitably grants me ridicule from LotR & PotC fans. But I stand my ground.

II - Good live music cleans my soul. Nothing beats that. EVER.

III - If I'm eating vegetables, I'd rather have them cold. Preferably made the previous day too.

IV - Diet Pepsi is the most awesome thing to drink out there. I roughly go through 2 liters a day. Bottled not from a can.

V - I always leave home with my laptop, cellphone & ipod. Even if I know I'm not going to use any of them. I always think what if something happens and I can't go back home? I pat them good night too.

VI - I'm very anal about spelling. If we ever did IM before, you'll definitely vouch for that bit. I think wrong spelling is just lazy.

VII - I haven't been offline for 2 days in a row since June 2002. Oh yeah. Addiction is the keyword here.

VIII - Last year, I went for a walk in downtown Cairo at sunset the day before Adha Bairam (el wa2fa). Streets were virtually deserted. It was beautiful to be there. It was quiet, empty, and the old buildings were breath-taking. This was the last time I was in love with Cairo.

IX - I can't dance, or swim. At all. I'd like to think it's because my synchronization genes were tampered with at a young age.

X - Another malfunctioning gene "the moderation gene". I don't do that too well. I like something, I get too much of it, that I feel like puking whenever I see it next. And this isn't about food only. Not too proud of that.

So there you go.. One tagging circle completed.. If you were tagged, move it & post your 10 things. If you weren't, I hope I didn't bore you to death.

Definitely. Okra & spinach are always to be eaten cold! :D Please don't hate :P

I do diet pepsi in all forms & circumstances. My friends usually are able to spot my car because of the empty bottles in the backseat.

embee,

no hate here babe, i would throw up if i had to do it tho! i am only fine with cold vine leaves, and i think i feel sick afterwards!!!

i don't share your passion for DIET pepsi, but i drink it when there isn't any pepsi.. i actually tried to quit pepsi by substituting it with diet pepsi, then i realized my bones are doomed either way, so i was back to pepsi!


Jade,

LOL

i would never say that joujou... but i had my doubts you'd do it... u like asking question and you barely answer any, that's what you say anyway!!
