Catch 25

So the name of this game is to just name off 25 random facts about yourself that you don't think anyone else knows. Alot of my friends on facebook have been tagging me in their notes about this thing so I decided I might as well do it myself. Also it would be a good way to get a few more people to at least look at my blog haha.

1. My hair is naturally curly. Alot of people think I style it or do something fancy to it in the morning to make it stick up, but in reality all I do is just swoop my hands through my hair once in the morning and i'm good to go.

2. The scar on the right side of my face is from back when I was a toddler. I accidentally ran into a wooden desk and it gave me this cut. Whenever people ask me about it though, I usually just tell them I got into a knife fight and some guy cut me.

3. I'm missing 5 teeth. I got 4 wisdom teeth pulled (they were growing in horizontally) and I knocked out a tooth playing basketball back in elementary school. Think is, if I hadn't gotten that tooth knocked out, I would have had to get braces.

4. I now buy girls pants. I used to buy guys pants, but they're more expensive that girls pants, and also girls pants fit better on me. So yeah if you wanna buy me pants, go with size 3-5 haha.

5. One of the things I don't like about myself is that I bite my nails. My fingernails look horrible and I always hate showing my fingers to anyone. I just get really embarrassed, and I really wanna kick this habit so yeah if you see me biting my nails just yell at me or smack me.

6. My vision is actually better than average so yeah. Normal vision is 20/20, and my vision is 15/20.

7. The name I most commonly go by online is Love en Grey. I got this name from a band caled Dir en Grey, and Dir sounds like Die, and one of the opposites of death to be is Love, so I just made Love en Grey.

8. Even though I dress all in dark colors and I look like an emo person, I'm really not, and if you talk to me you'll find that I'm just a bundle of smiles.

9. My music tastes are actually changing away from J-Rock. I'm starting to listen to it less and less and I'm starting to listen to more hip hop and post rock indie type stuff.

10. I've always had this urge to get my ears gauged. I wanna get the holes big enough so that I can keep a pencil or a pen in there, so that when someone asks me for a pencil in class, I can just pull one out my ear.

11. I really realy hate driving. I only do it because its convienient for me because then I can leave at any time I want to. The only time I actually enjoy driving is when its in the middle of the night and nobodys on the road and I can just drive as fast as I want to.

12. Ive gone through a repetoire of instruments in my lifetime. I first started playing the recorder in elemtary school (didn't we all?), and then I moved to the steel drums (used to know the little mermaid song on them), and after that I went to violin but I found violin to be boring (cause its the most depressing sounding instrument) and I finally ended up at trumpet. I stopped playing trumpet as soon as I got out of elementary school because I never practiced (because practicing is boring if your playing an instrument like trumpet). After that I didn't pick up an instrument until I found guitar (only started playing to get girls. . . ) and I started that sophmore year of high school. I've since included bass and drums into my instruments so yeah. My current favorite is bass though just because its so fun to play.

13. I actually have a life list of stuff to do before I die. Alot of it is like normal stuff, like visiting Australia and Japan, but there are a few odd ones out there. Such as swimming in a pool filled with jello and getting shot with a gun.

14. I'm one of the few people that you'll actually see use semi-colons in casual conversation; I'm only saying this cause of Ronnie haha.

15. Ive performed two surgeries on myself over the years, probably because I have no qualms about being around blood and I can also handle pain. Once was when I cut into a blister and removed a rock from it that had been in my skin for a few months, and the other time was when I took a pair of scissors and cut off a wart on my hand and then used a knife to carve out the remaining stuff.

16. I might piss a few people off with this one, but I'm not religious at all; in fact I'm actually against most forms of religion and one of my major pet peeves is when people preach their religion to me or when they use God as an excuse for everything. I'm sorry, but it is not God's fault that I have such a good life right now; I like to put that blame on myself. And stop telling me I'm going to hell. If your religion won't accept a non-believer that leads a good life into your "heaven", then your religion is fucked up. I choose to believe what I want to believe.

17. When I own my house, I'm going to personally design two of the rooms myself. One room is going to be a music room, and yes, no matter where I live, I'm going to have a music room where I can do whatever I want to. Theres gonna be an assortment of instruments there and the wall paper is going to be record covers. The other room is going to be my kids room, and its gonna be a pretty simple design but I want the wall paper to be pages out of Dr. Seuss books. That'd be pretty cool to have all the old books we used to read on the walls.

18. My ankles are actually pretty weak from years of skateboarding. This is why I kinda hate it when people kick the back of my feet or stuff like that. It kinda hurts me a bit more than it hurts other people I think.

19. I can live off of cereal. Seriously. Last year there were days where I didn't eat anything except for cereal. Frosted mini wheats and honey bunches of oats = crazy delicious.

20. The true me comes out when I'm hyper and full of sugar and caffeine. Only a few people have seen me in this state but I usually just jump around alot and yell and point at random things and I can't sit still.

21. I didn't used to think this way, but I'm starting to hate things that are really childish. I don't know if its just me growing more mature or if a part of my humor just died.

22. I'm really into webcomics. Like seriously, ive been reading webcomics religiously for over 2 years now and I check them everyday before I sleep. Its part of the reason I stay up so late, because alot of em update at midnight.

23. One of the things I really like doing is looking at the stars. If you ever see me at the night, I'll usually be look up to the sky. Its just really calming I guess.

24. Beneath this facade of myself, I acually have alot of problems that I hate myself for having. Its all stuff in the past but I still can't get over myself for doing it.

25. I'm actually pretty far away from my family, contrary to normal filipino people. On my dad's side I haven't seen my cousins for at least 5 years, probably longer. On my moms side, I see my cousins like twice a year and I don't really hang out with them much.

Yay I actually thought of 25 things. I didn't think I could do that but wooo I did. I hope some of you tagged facebookers enjoyed reading this.

Actually... it's really normal for Filipino youth to be rebellious and not get along with their family (mainly parents). There's even a documentary about this and they've tried to put this issue on the news. It usually occurs around the same age too which is interesting! Almost like I'm biologically supposed to act the way I did in highschool. (or REACT I would say. Since I was definitely provoked)
