So, I'm on break this entire week. What have I been doing? Let's see. Well, I lazed around on Monday, went somewhere mentally taxing on Tuesday and now here I am in the Monash comp labs on Wednesday.

Guilty!Wen decided to come back to uni today to get some work done on her hard-assed Management assignment. But once sitting comfortably in the comp lab, aided with quick-assed internet access, she chose to update her blog. Thus, making Guilty!Wen become Lazy!Wen.

Damn. Double damn.

So, I got tagged a loooooooong time ago, and well, I decided to finally get them done. Since I'm free now. Oh wait, I'm not supposed to be free. Never mind that.

I might as well get started quickly so I can finish quickly and get to my research work. *nods wisely* Yep, that's the way to go.



Idiotic Idiosyncrasies

id-i-o-syn-cra-sy /,Ιdiә'sIήkrәsi/ n [C] 1 an unusual habit or way of behaving that someone has. 2 an unusual or unexpected feature that something has.

"Here's the game. Introduce 10 quirks or idiosyncrasies of yours on your blog, following which you are free to pick five more people to do the same thing."


Okay, I officially got tagged by Ms. Loong Sheng Mae, ages ago, so here goes nothing. After all, goodness knows I've got more than enough idiosyncrasies.


1. [Twisted]
I always reach up to twist one of my five earrings on my earlobes. Twist twist twist. All the time. If I'm not wearing studs and wearing dangling earrings instead, then I'll be fiddling with them. Fiddle fiddle fiddle. I do this so much that I usually end up pulling too hard, and the back of my earring (What's it called? The earring stopper?) falls off. And I absolutely H-A-T-E losing the back of my earrings. Ugh. It annoys me.

2. [Babble Babble; Toil and Trouble]
I can bull and cock with the best of them. Enough said. I talk a lot of nonsense, even more so when I'm sleepy. Rubbish comes out of my mouth when I need sleep. Ask anyone, they'll vouch for this.

3. [SMS from SMS - Save My Soul from SMSes]
I SMS too much. SO much that the keypads on my two previous phones konked out as a result from my frantic pressings and overuse. My brother claims I SMS often enough, and quickly enough, to generate enough kynetic energy to supply electricity for the whole of SS2. Yeah, as you can see, exaggeration runs in the family. And my father always complains about my phone bill in the end. It's a lose-lose situation - skyhigh bill and spoilt keypads - but I can't help it! SMS me, and I'll reply. Bad habit. When I'm bored, I'll SMS you. Nooooooo. I shall not.

4. [Dry Wit]
Sarcasm comes easily. It's like a spoilt tap; it can't shut itself off.

5. [The Evil Box]
Those of you who know me well enough probably already know that I'm a TV addict. *cries out dramatically* No one can save me anymoreeee! Nyaahahaha. But TV, it's a way of bonding with my family. It's at the end of the day, where we all sit down, and watch TV together and dissect the plot and the acting loudly, like wannabe movie directors. Tsk tsk.

6. [Ker-rack]
My second toe on my right foot can't stop cracking, something wrong with my joint there, I suppose. I know. Gross, right?

7. [Multi-Tasker]
I study with the TV on. I can talk on the phone and study. I study with the radio on. I study with my MP3 player on. I study with my computer on. It's a wonder I actually get any work done actually. Lol, not to mention that I'm wasting one big heck of electricity.

8. [Pace Me]
I type pretty fast, even if I do say so myself. It's practice from typing all those meeting minutes for about *count count count* four years. [Omg, I held some form of secretarial position for four years?] I remember I was damn free as a kid, and my dad had this sort of typing book and I used to study the diagrams for fun as a kid. I know, I know, it was weird. We had this type tester in the lousy comp labs back in school, testing to see how fast you could type and I remember amazing Win Han with my score. He then, in typical Win Han fashion, went around announcing it to everyone who would listen to him. Lol, amazing how i can just remember certain things but fail to remember the rest.

9. [Triple Z]
I love waking up in the morning and realising that it's not time to wake up just yet. Then, I turn over and go back to sleep. Aaaaah. Such a heavenly feeling.

10. [What?]
I'm very deaf. BUT, I'm very sensitive to the sound of water. Like, when the TV's blasting, I can tell when the pail overflows in the bathroom. I can hear the first few drops of rain. Odd, isn't it? I'm still figuring it out.

Who I tag in return?
Hmm. Anyone lah. I'm not particular.



And then, I also got tagged ages ago by Ms. Eunice Wong. So since I'm fulfilling my tags, I'm getting off my lazy ass and getting it done too.

Angeline, because I haven't spoken to you in ages. And again, because I'm bored, I want everyone to do this. :D
