- I hate gossip magazines/websites. My bathroom's full of the magazines, thanks to my brother's girlfriend's affinity for them. I'll read 'em when I'm in there, but only as a last resort, if I don't have any issues of SLAM or Complex lying around. And only because I NEED to read something while I'm in there. I just don't see the point in the whole celebrity gossip scene, personally.
- Speaking of things I need to have, I dislike showering in silence. I always blast music while I'm in there. I used to have a CD player in the shower, but my mum got this iPod player for free, so now I have my whole music library to choose from. It. Is. Awesome.
- When I was younger, I used to be obsessed with making sure everything in my room was synchronised, time-wise. So, I used to pull out my Digimon (...ahem), set the time on my stereo and press the "Finalise" button at the exact moment that the second timer moved from :59 to :00. Y'know. Synchronicity.
- Speaking of obsessive habits, I always used to set the time on my VCR clock (the most prominent source of time in my room, seeing as it's in HUGE neon green digits, right at the foot of my bed) and on my G-Shock SEVEN minutes early. Why seven, I don't know. But having it early always gave me a sense of reassurance. Like, "Dude, you're not that late. Chillax. The clock's fast."
- I can't remember when this started (probably sometime around Year Seven?), but everytime I see a set of numbers, I'm compelled to add them together and see if they add up to five. I also feel a weird sense of satisfaction when I see numbers that do add up to five. I think I've memorised the different combinations of numbers that add up to five. (Like, 77 would add up to five, seeing as 7 + 7 = 14, and 1 + 4 = 5. I'm weird like that. Don't mind me.)
- I love roller-coasters. I never used to, but the feeling of going ridonculously fast while still being completely secure is just hard to beat. Sadly, I haven't been on a good roller-coaster in God knows how long.
- I love isolation. I hate isolation. It goes back and forth.
- Speaking of which, my mood can swing back and forth pretty quickly. It doesn't take a lot to push me to the extreme in either direction.
- I've been blogging for four years now. Four years. In blog form. That's like, a fifth of my life. Insanity.
- I love making lists. Possible byproduct of slight OCD.
- i used 2 type lyk dis on MSN...full shorthand n evrythin... But nowadays, it gives me the shits. I don't know why, it just does. Personal pet peeve.
- I've seen my favourite band perform my favourite song in person twice in my life. Thrice, if they play it again on the 26th of Feb. The first time I heard it in person, I felt like all my birthdays had an orgy and produced a super birthday. True story.
- I have a habit of appropriating mannerisms/behaviours/speech patterns from my favourite characters. It's been mentioned more than once before that I pretty much bogarted Chandler Bing's personality.
- I love The Wire. But I can't bring myself to watch the last season. Not because I don't want the show to end, but just because Sidereel loads too slow whenever I try to watch it. Annoying.
- I spent almost the first ten years of my life in the Phils. So, whenever my mates talk about typical Sydney childhood staples, I'm pretty much out of the convo by default. But I'm not mad; I loved growing up in the Phils.
- I have a very simple diet. It consists of pork/chicken, rice and orange juice. Noodles get thrown in there every once in a while. Same with fruits and water. But for the most part, I stick to what I love.
- I have a love/hate relationship with epic games. I love the sense of grandeur that comes with a long game (like Final Fantasy or GTA), but at the same time, I find it so much harder to get immersed in a storyline nowadays, compared to when I was growing up. As much as I love a long game, I only really enjoy it once I'm close to finishing everything. On the other hand, I can play sports games (okay, just NBA 2K9) all day long. No story, aside from trying to replicate whatever crazy feat Kobe pulled off that day.
- My favourite colour's always been blue. In recent years, yellow has made its way up the list, too. Green's at a close third.
- Growing up, I always wanted to be a chef. Then I realised I'd rather eat than cook. So I settled for having a chef as one of my best friends.
- I used to commonly experience sleep paralysis, sans the hallucinations. It used to scare the shit out of me. But since I haven't felt it in a while, I kinda miss it.
- I used to drink a lot, and always for a reason. But after seeing and feeling way too many hangovers, I've decided to avoid crossing that line from "buzzing" to "I'M NOT A FUCKING DOG, I'M A FUCKING MAN!" Moderation, what up!
- I like being out of the house, if only for the fact that it means I get to dress up and change out of my home clothes.
- I personally reckon that Rachel Bilson is one of the most beautiful women alive. But that's just me. It's a subjective thing. Also, Natalie Portman and Stacy Keibler are right up there.
- I've watched every episode of Friends at least ten times over. Sometimes I'll watch an episode just to see how many lines I can quote. Also, The One With the Embryos is still the best episode ever.
- I almost always have a song in my head. If I could have a soundtrack playing in the background while I went on with my life, that would definitely be on my list of "Best Things Ever."
Peace.

END COMMUNICATION.
