***********FOODOLOGY******
1. What is your salad dressing of choice?
Um. Balsamic Vinaigrette? Or oil and vinegar...
2. What is your favorite sit-down restaurant?
Um, I suppose Queens. Or Hussein's. My new place is Healthy Kitchen... It was Sushi-Ya at Market Market but it got eaten by a second National Bookstore. Or a coffee shop. Possibly both.
3. What food could you eat every day for two weeks and not get sick of?
Scrambled Tofu with Chickpeas and Salsa with Brown Rice
4. What are your pizza toppings of choice?
Don't do pizza.
5.What do you like to put on your toast?
I don't eat no toast...But here's a toast to y'all health.
***********TECHNOLOGY*****
1. How many televisions are in your house?
I have three in my tiny place. A flat screen in the living room. A little one I only use for Conan O'Brien when I'm getting reading for class and Manang has her own tv in her room.
2. What color cell phone do you have?
My pink Motorola ate it. Which is fine because before it died I stepped on it and thus couldn't hear people when they called me which caused me to shout at them "MY PHONE IS BROKEN!" despite their phones being perfectly fine. So my mom bought me a Nokia 6770 or something. It's black but I wanted a Chrome one. And I guess I have two phones now for my other sim card that only one person has the number to, which is a orange vomit-like color.
3. How many computers are in your house?
I have two laptops? The Macbook Pro to replace the other Mac I dropped... That one still works so I have a monitor for it and I've been meaning to transfer my iTunes but I keep forgetting.
4. Have any idea how many Megahertz your computer has?
No... I didn't even know what that is really.
***************BIOLOGY****
1. Are you right-handed or left-handed?
Right-handed.
Which yeah...
2. Have you ever had anything removed from your body?
No. I have all my organs. No -ectomy has been done to my person.
3. What is the last heavy item you lifted?
Would be some thing at the gym. I think the heaviest was 30 lbs to work on my quads. Cue the groans.
4. Have you ever been knocked unconscious?
Never.
************BULLCRAPOLOGY*
1. If it were possible, would you want to know the day you were going to die?
Hell no. This never ends well in horror movies. Well it ends in death all the time but... yeah. The waiting actually sucks...
2. If you could change your name, what would you change it to?
I used to want to change my name. But fuck it. Whose cares right? I actually want to correct people saying my last name wrong. "muck-DAY-vid" not "muck-DA-vid" in that Filipino way... Like how Isaac becomes three syllables.
3. Would you drink an entire bottle of hot sauce for £1000?
No. Since I have no idea how much cash that is... Would it be worth it?
************DUMBOLOGY*****
1. How many pairs of flip flops do you own?
Hmmm. Two pairs of Haviannas (god, I sound like a rich douchebag). I think it's three actually since one pair a black flip flop with a flag and that other is one without a flag. I have no idea what happened to their mates. And then a pair of brown platformy ones from Roxy. And I'll admit to owning a pair of Crocs for when I'm going to be all up in Scrubs and getting blood on me...
2. Last time you had a run-in with the cops?
This morning if we count those dick head security guard in the Fort that can take your license. Because they always tell you to stop waiting curbside before the assholes that we there before you. Real cops was when we were standing around the ER and I guess they were following up on the head wound trauma guys that got into a fight with each other last semester... I wasn't involved with that, but we booked it when one pulled out his gun since the newspapers are filled with stories about people getting hit by stray bullets in shoot outs here in the Philippines.
3. Last person you talked to?
Manang. The last person I chatted with was this guy I enjoy flirting with. (Which yeah I have no idea where I am on the Kinsey scale now.)
4. Last person you hugged?
Um Philip, who is a pug. A person? I guess someone I was related to. I don't know which of my relatives. I guess my grandmother last Saturday at her birthday party all the way in the stupid province...
**************FAVORITOLOGY
1. Season?
Autumn. I love when the leaves change color. And I like sweaters!
2. Holiday?
Nothing. Well New Year's? Or Christmas? I've stopped celebrating holidays. I suppose Thanksgiving is the one that we pull off. The mostly Filipino American Students With Like Mexican, Iranian, Bangladeshi, Korean, Canadian-Filipino students tagging along...
3. Day of the week?
Wednesday. It's the middle of the week. And the middle of my MWF workout, and the last day of duty at the hospital...
4. Month?
I think this question is stupid. Since I don't give a fuck about months... I'll say December because of My December...
***********CURRENTOLOGY***
1. Missing someone?
Not really. Or currently. I miss the idea of certain people. Does that make sense? Ok, fine if you want. I miss YOU, oh reader.
2. Mood?
Blah. Like can I get out of this? Like I'm on a dead end street, just standing there. Static. I'm static.
3. What are you listening to?
The hum of an electric fan and the buzz of some electrical device... What the hell is that? I hope it doesn't explode. Ok it stopped. The music I'm listening to these days: The Hush Sound, Eisley and songs from Glee. Yeah. Particularly the mash ups of "It's My Life/ Confessions Part II" and "Halo/Walking On Sunshine." DAMN YOU GLEE! At least you're distracting me from Runaways being on hiatus... OH NO! Runaways.
4. Watching?
Like I said, Glee. And whatever is on tv. Mostly the Discovery Channel, National Geographic, Crime and Investigation, History Channel things... Since all the shows I was following played the hours of my shift at the hospital so I never caught up with them. I'll have to make a trip down to a pirate DVD place that doesn't get raided. so I can get Leverage. Yeah, I can get torrents but all my downloading is being devoted to comic books. DAMN YOU COMIC BOOKS! You're supposed to be distracting me from Glee. OH NO! Glee.
***************RANDOMOLOGY
1. First place you went this morning?
The gym. Yeah. The gym.
2. What's the last movie you saw?
In the cinema, I watched Astroboy. On HBO... um, no idea?
3. Do you smile often?
I think I do. But apparently not enough for my Filipino raised peers. People think I'm whatever the word for stuck up is in Filipino. I know it but I can't spell it. I'd like to think my smiles are for people I like. I won't waste them on people that are stupid. And fuck you bitches seven am is way too early to be smiling after three hours of sleep. Ugh. And I look like shit these days...
***************OTHEROLOGY*
1. Do you always answer your phone?
Yes. Well, the person that always picks up is Manang. Who sadly refuses to screen my calls. My calls from one person. The calls from this one person that always happens after eight o'clock at night. I feel guilty but I hate talking on the phone. Well, talking on the phone is me listening to the other person go on and on and on about things. She's pretty sensitive which is annoying. Really clingy and um whatever that thing is where you have to constantly be in contact with people. I hate that. I hate that about the Filipino culture. Get the fuck out of my personal space. No offense.
2. It's 4 in the morning and you get a text message; who is it?
Likely to be the same person that calls me at night...
3. If you could change your eye color what would it be?
The color that my dad has.
4. What flavor do you add to your drink at Sonic?
The one time I ever went to Sonic was to yell at it after sleeping off the drinking session. Seriously. It was fucking cold and we had no car. No way we were going to eat at the tables.
5. Do you own a digital camera?
Yeah. A canon DSR thingy or whatever. Ask Travis or something.
6. Have you ever had a pet fish?
The goldfish you win at carnivals. Seriously. I won like five in grade school and for some reason my parents hid them from me in the medicine cabinet at our house. I found them when my dad opened the medicine cabinet to while he was shaving and spotted them. "Why are my fish here?" My mom also gave away my turtle. And I had a pet crab for all of five minutes before I boiled it on accident when I introduced it to hot tap water. The hell does my brother get to keep his pets... Although PHILIPP! kicks the ass of EVERYTHING.
7. Favorite Christmas song(s):
Um, Whatever is on NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL CHRISTMAS? I do love Blue Christmas.
8. What's on your wish list for your birthday?
Haha. I want a bike or a surfboard so I can attempt outdoorsy things during the weekend. Or a personal trainer. Gawd that would kick ass.
9. Can you do push ups?
Yes. I can rock ten wide grip push ups. And two close grip ones. But I like doing bench presses more. WEEE. OH WAIT. The heaviest weight I last lifted was during my bench press. I keep thinking in terms of pounds. But the bar itself is 20 kg. Plus the weight plates. So more than 45 lbs? My max weight is 60 lbs but only five reps... Yeah... I'm fucking gym rat. Go ew yourself.
10. Can you do a chin up?
Hmm not unasissted. But that is my goal.
11. Does the future make you more nervous or excited?
Nervous. Will I meet my expectations? Or will I constantly wish for a time machine? And have Erik Erikson mock me as I grow. Haha. Intimacy vs. Isolation folks. I still don't know why we use that crap in the nursing process still. Or Freud's Psychosexual stages which is even worse.
12. Do you have any saved texts?
Um I had all those awesome "Good bye Charli. I'm going to the airport now" texts. But my pink phone sploded. So those are lost forever. The texts on my phones are the phones I haven't deleted yet.
13. Ever been in a car wreck?
Not like major ones. Mostly like swervy injuries. I got to take a ride to the ER in a straight board because of the one times my school bus almost hit a car thus whiplash to my grade school self. Let me tell you I fucking cried the whole ride in the Ambulance. Since I believe the EMTs were like "Who hurts?" And I'm like "I kinda do? In my neck." And then I get strapped in. I'm pretty much like "AHHH. I take it back. I want my parents! I'm missing school. I'm dying. AHHHH."
14. Do you have an accent?
Yes. I imagine it sounds like a bastard blend of Filipino Southern at times. Apparently I will put on a Filipino accent when talking to my Filipino friends as witnessed by Sei. And woe is any Fil-Am that fobs out in front of the others... When I was in Kentucky, I would get a twang for certain words...
15. What is the last song to make you cry?
Hmmm. Hurt by Johnny Cash. Why are you on my iPod? Oh yeah. Because it does make me cry and I lose my shit over thinking about the life of Johnny Cash and how he owned that song. Before that. "Wires" by Athlete. Fuck which will be blasting through my head every time I'm in the Delivery Room. And we're the doctors tell us there is no fetal heart tone or in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. I used to want to be a neonatal nurse. But I cannot watch family members crumble over the dying of their loved one. How much more to have that be the parents of a pre-term baby that just couldn't last. That's the first official death I experienced. So "Wires" is like a memorial song to that baby boy. And I'm still pro-choice but I don't want to think about people going to get abortions willingly after seeing the end product.
16. Plans tonight?
Get to sleep without over thinking.
17. Have you ever felt like you hit rock bottom?
Yeah. 2007. But up was the only direction to take. So here I am.
18. Name 3 things you bought yesterday?
I bought nothing. Since I went to the gym and got free coffee too. Um the last thing I bought was coffee too.
19. Have you ever been given roses?
I think. I don't care fore roses. There aren't my favorite flower. The last time I got flowers was during my graduation from high school.
20. Current worry?
That I will fuck up a class this semester. This is the semester from Hell apparently since Medical Surgical Nursing is harder than Pharmacology, which half the population of the College of Nursing failed.
21. Current hate right now?
The hate I have right now is for the stupid fucking Marvel universe.... because if I hate on the real world. I'll be trapped forever. WAIT. I hate all the stupid construction in the Fort. Like I said "Why the hell does the Fort Bonifacio, Global City, Corporate Greed, need a Shangri-La Hotel when there is one in Makati and like ten minutes away. It's so stupid. And also, what the fuck does the Fort need a hotel for? This of course is not as bad as whatever the hell is going to be built by Manila Bay which I think is a giant ass casino complex/resort/theme park/ aquarium/Starbucks/ Tomorrowland as envisioned in the 1970s bitchface place with a space needle thing with a view of the smog and trash from Cavite floating in the Bay being built on reclaimed land. YAY. There is a motherfucking race track you guys.
Pagcor will be in the running to garner a share of the estimated 200 million Chinese travelers that will be vacationing throughout Asia. Attractions such as the Manila Eye by Aruze Corp., the Tower by Genting Berhad, the numerous museums, additional hotel accommodation, as well as the sports and entertainment shows that will be featured at the Manila Bay Integrated City will make the capital city comparable to renowned tourist magnets such as Paris, London, Bangkok and Tokyo. You know what it's missing? A freaking AIRPORT so that all the tourists can ignore everything outside this stupid city...
22. Met someone who changed your life?
I think everyone I've ever met has had an impact on my life. Tiny catalysts for my soul. You know who you are.
23. How will you bring in the New Year?
I have no idea. I think I'll be in Subic?
24. What song represents you?
I will go with Brandi Carlile's "My Song".
25. Name three people who might complete this.
Tess, Travis, Sei. There that's like half my audience.
26. Would you go back in time if you were given the chance?
Possibly. And I know what I would change. But then I wouldn't know the people I know now? So I'd probably tell myself things.. like learn the guitar, get into running and the gym, take IB Chemistry, stay the fuck away from Harry Potter. And to slap myself for being getting stuck on those stupid crushes I had.
IF the chance to play time tourist happens yeah. I want to know who Jack the Ripper was. But I'd rather the technology to go inside books exist like from the Tuesday Next series.
27. Have you ever dated someone longer than a year?
Um. Two years?
28. Does anyone love you?
My family. My relatives. Manang. That friend that calls me after eight on the landline. She states this frequently. But I think the words are mostly empty if there's no action to back it up. In fact I hate saying "I love you." to people since it feels like it's not enough. Did I just quote Chasing Cars? If we're ripping off song lyrics then I'd rather say "I feel that word for you." Sums me up? I know that people do love me because of their actions. This is where I say that I feel like I don't deserve it, causing those people to join forces to put a boot up my ass. Tough love.
29. Ever had someone sing to you?
Umm. Happy Birthday. Nothing like a full song dedicated to me. I've had people sing at me. Nothing like harana.
30. When did you last cry?
Ok. Tearing up at stupid moments in Glee fanfictions. But for reals during the Marine Corps Ball when the Marine Commandant gave his Birthday Greeting and there was the story about how two Marines gave their lives to save their follow Marines, and how that's somebody's son. And how even if you don't support the War, support the troops. It's two different things in my opinion. And don't shit with me on this one.
And for fight the tears from falling moment when I was absolutely frustrated.
31. Do you like to cuddle?
With Philipp! Um, I'd probably not enjoy it too much.
32. Have you held hands with anyone today?
No. I kinda don't like being touched.
33. Are most of the friends in your life new or old?
Both?
34. Do you like pulpy orange juice?
I guess.
35. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Still breathing! Unless the world ironically ends in 2013.
