I got Tagged!

Since I was tagged, now I have to tag 7 people as well namely (I'll choose those who I know haven't been tagged yet) --> ton-ton, ep, my cousin tina, mara, rex, lorraine, and ague.

Instructions: Each player starts with 7 random facts/habits about themselves. People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their seven things, as well as these rules. At the end of your blog, you need to choose 7 people to get tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them that they have been tagged and to read your blog!

1. I've never been able to sleep in class. No matter how tired I am or how few hours (at times none) of sleep I have, I can never sleep in a classroom. And it's not like I've had really stirring professors always! There were some which really were able to put other classmates of mine to sleep.

2. In college, I never really bought the required textbook unless it was a novel. Then in grad school, I began purchasing the required textbooks, but I never really read them. That is why some of my books are pretty much as good as new. They pretty much end up on display. Hehehe!!! At least if I need to look something up, I have the books for it.

3. I cross-stitch. This is something I think most of my friends now about me. I've been doing it since I was in first year high school even through college. During grad school, I haven't really been able to get back to it, but I did bring all my stuff in case I do decide to pick up the habit again. I've been able to finish a good number of projects. I usually get teased cause I made 2 ballerina patterns, one in blue and another in pink.

4. I enjoy counting coins. Let me clarify, I'm one who doesn't mind when I get change during the day. I've always had a piggy bank and usually every month, I empty it out and check the balance. I rarely use the coins I have in my pocket unless I have too much already. At one point, when I deposited my coins it came out to a total of $500. I just enjoy taking them out and stacking them and counting them out.

5. When shopping, I tend to put things that I'm interested in purchasing in my cart, only to leave them just when I am about to reach the check out counter. This habit of mine irritates franny, cause sometimes there are items which I do need, but I end up postponing my purchasing of it. I guess it's my way of "satisfying" my desire to shop.

6. I hate being late. I always try to make sure that we make it on time, even though I am well aware that those who we are meeting are notorious for being late. I just think that being on time is your way of saying that you are valuing the person you made plans with. More frustrating for me are those who are late and seem not to care that they are late at all (it's surprising how some people are unapologetic about it).

7. I collect postcards. I usually ask friends of mine to send me one whenever they travel. Whenever I travel I do return the favor as well. I prefer that it gets sent out through the mail, but it doesn't matter how I get one :D I just think its nice seeing where my friends and relatives have been able to travel and explore. Of course, it's part of my plan to travel to those places as well.

That's pretty much it. It's not as easy as it seems.
