10 things

Monday, February 4, 2008

i have been tagged by the rambling virus:)

instructions:  blog about 10 weird/random facts/habits/goals about myself.  at the end choose 10 people to be tagged, listing their names and WHY you chose them. Don’t forget to leave them a comment (You’re IT! ) and to read your blog. You can’t tag the person who tagged you, since you can’t tag me back - let me know when you’ve posted your blog so I can see your answers.

1.  after college, i took up two courses that i didn’t finish.  i took up nursing for one sem (didn’t even finish the sem) but i realized that i wasn’t caring enough to be a nurse.  then i took accountancy for one year.  i excelled in this course but i got  impatient so i stopped.
2.  i am not athletic.  i don’t know how to play any kind of sport.  i also don’t know how to swim nor ride a bike.
3.  my college friends used to call me "brando".
4.  i got published once in youngblood.  the title of the article was "generous patrons".
5.  i believe that people are inherently evil.
6.  i’m willing to work my ass to death to achieve my career goals.  heavy workload stresses me out but it gives me a sense of satisfaction.  i also want to become an entrepreneur and amass wealth. :)
7.  i don’t have a credit card.  i prefer to pay in cash.
8.  i get extremely nervous whenever i get a haircut.  for some reason, i’m prone to haircut disasters.
9.  in once tried to manipulate myself into thinking that i have a crush on a classmate.  the experiment turned out to be half successful.
10.when i was younger, i believed in the power of "star bright, star light, first star i see tonight" :)   the one thing i wished for every night actually came true.

i’m interested to know about these guys so i am tagging april, emcee, bren, francine, hailey, kirstine, michelle, pinaywife, wersp, and yods.  i hope you’d have as much fun as i had in answering this meme.

make your blog interactive

having your own website is like having your own talk show.  you have the freedom to write about anything that you want.  you can express your opinions on various issues that you’re interested in.  

just like a talk show, sometimes you’re also interested to know about what your readers think about you and what you write.  some websites or blogs give readers the option to leave a comment or to post a shoutout but not all readers have the patience to compose sentences to give you feedback. 

to know about your readers, you might want to set up quick polls or surveys in your site.  this will allow your readers to provide feedback in just one click.
