100 Things About Me


Took me quite a while to come up with this.

Golly.

********************************************
1. Loved ones call me Tine (pronounced Tin, not "Tain").
2. I have a dog called Tiger. He's named after my parents' favourite golfer.
3. I love twiddling with my hair.
4. My mostly-used words are "S**t" (let's keep it clean) and "bloody hell" (I'm sure there are more though).
5. I hate baked beans. Hate. Them.
6. I think Hugh Jackman's very drool-worthy.
7. I wish I was a singer.
8. I hate playing the piano to perform.
9. I do not know my blood type.
10. I'm afraid of needles.
11. I do not know what to do with my life.
12. I use simulation results at work as a "wallpaper" on my computer screen, when in truth, I'm reading other people's blogs.

14. I love collecting postcards.
15. Ditto for bags.
16. I really need a shower right now.
17. My favourite umbrella is red, with a duck-shaped head. It was a gift from a dear friend. I hardly use it in case it gets damaged from the rain.

19. I hate bad surprises.
20. I cannot sleep without my little bolster which I have had since I was 8.

22. I hate having to wake up in the middle of the night to pee.
23. My favourite TV show is FRIENDS. I've watched all the episodes more than 10 times over.
24. I'm struggling to think of any more stuff about me to write (damnit, I'm only at #24!!).
25. I'm a magazine junkie. The amount of money I spent on magazines in the UK for 3 years would be enough for a trip around Europe.
26. I think Japanese men are ugly (although I HAVE met some VERY cute ones ;))
27. I love the colour pink *blush*.
28. I have a bunch of wooden flowers in a vase on my desk, and I wonder what it is for.

30. I feel old.
31. I think books, movies, etc by John Grisham are boring.
32. I just spoke with a friend who called from Japan. Thanks pal! :)
33. I push all my soft toys off my bed when I go to sleep (hey, I need my space!).

40. I once scraped Mumsy's car against one of the columns at the porch of my house, and I covered it up by filling the scraped areas with a metallic silver pen.

89. I panic easily.
90. I need to read something before going to sleep (even if it's really boring).
91. I do not hang posters of movie stars, pop stars, or of anybody (other than me!) on the wall 'cos I think their eyes are on me all the time, and that freaks me out.
