Still A Little Traumatized By The Shock
So I did my homework. I interviewed one of my parents. I chose my mom, since my dad was busy and would give me the shortest sentences possible.. Ack..Here it goes!
My mom, me and my sister, not to forget tigger (MAGOO!) and pooh (CHESCA!) at disneyland HK
1. What was the funniest thing I did when I was a baby?
-When you were a kid, we left you in your high chair attached to the table. There was a chocolate cake in front of you, and thinking that you wouldn't touch it, we left you. You dipped your fingers into all parts of the cake. You filled your face with chocolate, since you missed your mouth most of the time. When we saw you, we didn't even stop you. We just laughed.
2. What was my first word?
-"da da" (awww... teeheehee)
3. What was my favorite food?
- Chicken nuggets from McDonald's, because you could hold it yourself and dip it in the sauce...
4. What was the craziest thing you did when you were a student?
- When I was in grade 3 or grade 2, I fought with one of my boy classmates. I repeatedly hit him with an umbrella. In the end, his mom came to school. (I didn't think she wanted to expound much on her high school years... tsk tsk)
5. How did you and dad meet?
- In the college library, while I was reading a book, he came up to me, and asked if he could sit there. I had a very snobbish attitude and just grunted. After a while, he asked me for my zodiac sign. I just said "Aries". He then looked at the newspaper he had with him and read my horoscope. It said something like do not bury yourself in a book when you already have someone to talk to. Thinking that it was a lame "line", ignored him. But he said that he wasn't lying, and when I checked, he was telling the truth! (Fate? I think so... It couldn't have been a line daw, torpe daw tatay ko!)
6. If you could do anything other that what you are doing now, what would it be?
- I want to teach, not necessarily school subjects, but rather to train people. Either that or I want to study again, maybe something like philosophy or theology..
7. Tell me a secret you kept from your parents.
- I lost the money my dad gave me for an expensive book I needed for school. I ended up finding ways to borrow it from the library and from classmates, until I saved and borrowed enough money to buy a second hand one. (I think my mom is keeping all the juicy stuff away from me.. I think she thinks it might give me ideas.. Wahahha!) (If I asked my dad this, the list would go on and on and on... sayang!)
8. Tell me something about you that I still don't know.
- When I was young I thought of becoming a nun, but nobody took me seriously because they said that my personality was not fit to be a nun.. (I know how you feel, mom.. Boy, do I know how you feel! hahhah!! Do the celibacy dance!! wahahah!)(by the way, I don't want to be a nun, but... basta..)
This was very odd... Those are the only words that are coming out of my brain at the moment.. Still a little traumatized by the shock..

Who Am I?
Here I am on another adventure to discover the "real" Bea. Ack!
Useless facts that no one really needs to know (hence,the word useless)
-I don't know how to ride a bike.
-My favorite color is orange.
-I have a fear of exercise.
-I love movie marathons and feel good music.
-I want to own my own McDonald's.
-I wish i could break dance or dance really well.
-I wish i was Oprah's friend.
-Ice cream makes me happy.
-I hate going to school, but i hate missing classes.
-I think that I'm starring in my own "Truman Show".
-I dance like a fool when I think no one's watching.
-I played a black girl in a recent original musical called "One Way" (If you want to buy the soundtrack, just tell me :D)
-I'm a couch potato who loves to watch cartoons like Spongebob and Dexter's Lab (I guess you shall never be anything more than a mere mankey!).
-I've always wanted to be on the TV show "Beat The Geek"; I someday hope to beat Nav.
-I dream to be in a band.
-I have a list of books that i want to be able to finish reading by this year. It has reached 63.
-I lived in Hong Kong until i was seven.
-I am now in Netopia because I still do not have internet at home.
-I am very moody. One day, i can be loud, friendly and carefree. The next day, i'll be all emo, introverted and reflective.
-I'm living a life of TV reruns and chocolate chip pancakes.
-I'm soon going to learn how to drive. Yay!
-I have one sister.
-My favorite holiday is Christmas because of the time I get to spend with my friends and family, the cold weather during Simbang Gabi mornings and no school(The gifts and money are just a plus).
-I like curling hair.
-There are times when I think I don't think at all, but other times, I think I think too much.
I know these things can't really define me as a person (except that maybe sometimes I can be really shallow), but I think I can never really say who I am. I could, of course, get all philosophical but isn't everyone a child of God whose goal is to know, love and serve God to one day, be happy with Him in heaven?
And since I'm under time pressure in submitting this entry, I better stop sometime soon. Ack! Hehe. G'bye. Later days, guys!
