10 real facts about me.
Taken from the dashboard.
1. To start with, I have a keen sense of smell, rather a very sensitive smell. I guess that explains my OCD.
2. I’m very bad in directions. Minsan kahit ilang beses ko ng napuntahan hindi ko na kayang balikan. Mahina akong mag memorize ng mga roads and buildings, etc etc. Not only that, kahit madalas ko ng nilalakaran but when I started on the other way around like pabalik, or reverse direction na sa kabilang street ako maglalakad even on the same road maliligaw na ko for sure. Grabe talaga kabobohan ko when it comes to direction and even when giving directions to others, don’t trust me as hirap akong mag explain. Lagi kong sinasabi, “on the corner of”…or “that same road we used to pass by something…“. Once nga naligaw ako sa sarili kong flat. I just moved in then when I went to work, pagbalik ko nakalimutan ko kung anong number ng building ko.
There was also a time when I’m still working in a Telecommunications Company, naligaw ako kasi di ko matandaan kung saan ako bababa considering na mga 2 days na kong pumapasok.
3. I’m not good in Math. Kapag numbers, I do not only double check, minsan 10 times paulit ulit kasi nga ayokong magkamali lalo kapag work related. Even at work, what I’d do, I would observe kung paano ginagawa ng mga ka office mate ko and then I practice myself when I’m free.
4. I’m a sleepyhead. I can sleep 16 hours straight. The longest time I slept was 4PM then I woke up the next day at the same time. (Well, it’s not continuous because I get up around two to three times to pee and drink water). 8 hours of sleep is not enough for me that’s why I’m taking advantage of the “bed-all-day” during my off days/weekends.
5. I’m very observant. Everywhere I go. People, Places, things, food, movies, etc. I just love to sit back and observe. That’s also how I see people’s inner personality and character. And if I keep an eye on something or someone, I would watch everything about them more closely. How they talk, how they laugh, how they speak, how they eat, how they move. Everything about them. Plus, most of the time, we could define people from their upbringing, environment, family, day-to-day living, manners, norms, and the people around them.
6. I have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I have this habit of doing things on a cycle and I have obsession related to perfection. I’m not that competitive person, but I want to do everything in a very organized manner closed to almost perfection particularly to things I’m responsible with. I don’t wait for tomorrow if I can do it today. More so, I would never lie idle and relax if there are things to be done. I’m keen to cleaning. Ung malinis sa iba, minsan madumi pa sa tingin ko. Basta I have my own way of doing things according to my standards. Mas gusto ko ang linis ko. Even sa cupboards, gusto ko laging arranged, organized and in order. But i dont demand people to do things, basta nakikita ko at hindi maayos sa paningin ko, I do it myself. Hindi lang sa mga gamit ko even sa gamit ng iba, at hindi lang din sa mga ginamit na kinalat ko, pati na din sa iba, kapag nakita kong nakakalat, ako na ang kusang magliligpit. Ayoko ng madumi. That’s one thing that immediately spoils my mood and irritates me fast.
I can’t leave the house in the morning with a messy bed and floor, Otherwise, I have the tendency to think about that at work, which would bother me for the rest of the day. My clothes always have to be neatly folded and hung in the cupboard. My kitchen has to be clean and tidy. No dust. I do the same thing over and over again, repeatedly. Everything has to be properly arranged- even those that are not visible to the eyes- like under the sink, inside the cupboard, etc. All the labels have to be facing the front.
7. Hindi ako madamot. Whether in money or in food or any other material things na meron ako. That’s one thing. If maliliit na amount of money lang na hindi naman ganun kabawasan para kwentahin pa, i dont mind them, hindi natin pag uusapan. I don’t count things na nagastos or nabigay, or kulang or dapat equally shared. But I could be maldita as well, and it shows when I start to dislike any person, no eye contact, and as if they are never existing.
8. What else? I have this unique charm I know, (hahaha!), but honestly, yes I do. Na palaging nakaka attract sa iba wherever I go. Madalas akong special treatment. The fact that I don’t easily get comfortable with strangers, not that mahiyain ako because I’m not like that. It’s just that I prefer to sit and observe first and make myself and everyone else at ease and comfortable with me before I finally open up.
9. I have trypophobia. I find small holes, clusters, in different or irregular patterns gross & disgusting that would make me shiver and throw up.
10. I value privacy and my personal space more than anything else, and at the same time, I value people’s privacy as well. I hate gossiping. I hate dramas or publicly spilling out their emotions and burdens, more so keeping my life open for everyone to see. There’s always the right place and right time to express your sentiments with the right people.
Additional: Fun fact
I don’t check other profiles that much. It’s not that I’m a narcissist or something, but I would rather check my own profiles and blogs I run and immediate family more often than other people. Also. I would rather spend time with family than friends especially when I’m on Philippine vacation. I would rather spend vacations or dine out, or out of town with them rather than with other people- even friends. Why would I waste time and money with others if I could share and enjoy it with my family? Is it family oriented? Well, not that much, but my happiness only revolves around family, more than anyone else.
End.
