WEIRD HABITS

Because this has been sitting on my drafts for two years now, I thought maybe it's about time I finish this post. It's in english because 2 years ago, I write in english all the time in this blog. Medyo nahirapan lang ako, kaya naging tagalog, but since I've already started this that way, might as well finish this post in english.

A list of Gillboard's weird habits:

  • I LET MY ALARM SNOOZE 4 TIMES BEFORE I WAKE UP... I love to sleep, and don't normally look forward to going to work.
  • WHEN SLEEPING MY FEET SHOULD ALWAYS BE ELEVATED... I don't know if I'm the only one who does this, but I have to have a pillow under my feet when I sleep. Either that or I place my feet on the walls. Specially when I'm tired.
  • I LIKE PUTTING CHEESE ON MY RICE... Whether it's the cheese spread or I grate cheese, I want my rice to have flavor. The viand is usually not enough for me. But I do this more when the ulam has tomato sauce on it... parang spaghetti lang.
  • SPEAKING OF EATING... I'm not used to eating on the table with people. I tend to eat on my own other than the dining table. Even if we're having a family dinner, I often eat away from my family. Usually in front of the television or computer.
  • I CANNOT LEAVE MY HOUSE WITHOUT A SIGN PEN... I have no use for it other than at work, but I always bring a pen with me whenever I go out. My take on it, there will be a time that I'll be signing autographs for fans.
  • I SLEEP WITH PILLOWS ALL AROUND ME... I think I need six pillows to sleep peacefully. Pamalit kasi wala akong yinayakap... huhuhu
  • I DON'T LIKE THE TASTE OF SOFTDRINKS... I know it's not a weird habit, but it's just weird. I don't like how coke, sprite or whatever softdrinks feel in my mouth. That's why I don't drink too much of it. It's crazy i know, but at least it's healthy!!!
  • I LIKE TO TALK BACKWARDS SOMETIMES... I usually do this when I'm alone. It's my secret language. Something like this: oka is treblig. oti ya gnasi driew gniht tuoba em. And I can do it quickly too.
  • SOMETHING ABOUT PLATE NUMBERS... When I'm commuting, I always look at plate numbers, and I always list down the first letters of plate numbers of cars until I complete the alphabet. But until now, I've never seen a car whose plate number starts with the letters O and Q.
  • I TALK TO MYSELF... That's because I'm semi-autistic. I'm used to talking to myself. I oftentimes interview myself, whenever I'm alone. No I'm not crazy, but when you're an only child with practically no one to talk to when you're growing up, chances are you'd be like me. Di ako baliw... autistic lang... minsan.

So there's mine. I think I've humiliated myself enough already with this list. What are your weird habits?

  1. finally. just when i thought that i'm the only coo-coo around here who talks to himself.

    it gets kinda weird sometimes when someone catches you talking to yourself, they'd be like, "were you just talking to yourself?"

    i know its fucking weird but i've always used it as a way to make myself feel that i'm not alone. LOL ANG EMO!

    this has got to be one of those syndromes pag only child ka. diba? diba? diba?

  2. Well, nice to see we have a lot in common.

    Cannot Leave The House Without A Sign Pen: So true! This unbreakable habit started when I was younger, due to an absurd thought that I would need a pen to write a ransom note to my parents if someone kidnapped me. Like I said, absurd.

    Sleeping With Pillows All Around: Check! You can have enough friends, but you can never have too many pillows.

    I Talk To Myself: Check. Used to think it was weird, but then I discovered the word "soliloquy." Only, does soliloquy apply when one talks to multiple selves?

    We have ONE more thing in common.

    But I ain't telling. :P

  3. Healthy habit ang pagkausap sa sarili. Ginagawa ko din 'yan. Tulad mo, iniinterview ko din sarili ko. Nyahaha kaya hindi ka nag-iisa. LOL

  4. You don't drink soft drinks? A gamer should have cold caffeine and cheetos by their side.

    Anyways, I can't leave the house without a pen either. Although I use gel pen, not a sign pen.

  5. Huh? pano kung sinigang or kare-kare ang ulam? ay cheese pa din yung kanin? hahah

    Here's the top on my list:
    1. Least favorite kong gawin ay maligo. Oh well, ganun yata talaga pag konti lang ang fats sa katawan. Ginawin. Here's another: Kaya kong matulog ng walang bentilador! Ü

  10. Re: Plate numbers. Wala naman talaga ata kasing plaka na nagsisimula sa O at Q kaya wala kang makikitang ganun. Hehe. Something to do with O resembling zero.

  11. yung elevated feet... yun ang alam kong dapat talaga... ginagawa ko din yu pag pagod lang...

    sabi ni sharon di maganda ang kumain magisa... baka maging adik ka... o baka yun ang dahilan kung bakit ka semi autistic...

    sana di ka ma-salisi gang kahahanap mo ng O at Q...

  12. inuulam ko rin ang cheese sa kanin at kinakausap ko rin ang sarili ko pag mag-isa!

    pero astig ung ability mo na magsalita ng pabaliktad h. ang alam ko lang ung dinadagdaggan ng pantig na "g" ang pagitan ng mga sylabbles gaya nito.

  16. same with me tol... 4 to 5 times ko snooze yung clock ko bago bumangon..bakit ba masarap kaya matulog lalo na puyat...

  17. The fromage on the grain I do, as I find the palate profile of risotto very appetizing. Unfortunately, fiscal situations deter me from such indulgences. So long as the cheese is salty enough. I've even done just cheese and rice, with a little cayenne flakes and pepper.

    Oh, and I often eat alone.

  18. try getting the square root of the plate number of the car in front of you then add to the square root of the one after you divided by 2.

    more fun.

    happy new year brotha!

  21. I used to do the backward thing too, every word that comes to my mind I try to spell backward, until it became an obsession, and my brain is full of words, good thing that was when I was a young kid and I eventually gre out of it...
