Giving out trivia of oneself is no joke, it's like spreading your self too thin in the
cyber space however

ako that's why I'm doing this. For you this might be deceiving, I tell you now that I know my self better.
This has been circulating in
blogosphere for a while now and I'm enjoying reading their version of "25 random things about me" even if I don't know them. So, I decided to write my own too.
Here are the 25 giveaways to know me.
1. I don't know how to bike.
2. I don't like pineapple in my pizza, meaning no
hawaiian pizza for me. I prefer all-meat or with olives, bell pepper but please no pineapple.
3. I learned how to swim because my father left me in the part were I cannot reach the bottom, the depth was thrice my height. I realized that he was right after I reached the shore - survival instinct made me learn how to swim.
4. When I was a kid I would prefer playing outside rather than sleeping after lunch . Now I know that sleeping is vital in growing up and that's one reason why I am as tall as the current president of our country.
5. I was part of a band in high school. Oh not the singing band but the band where you play the national anthem and the likes during school program even in our town fiesta.
6. Learning karate has an advantage, I once applied it to my bully classmate from then on, no one bullies me. I was an active
karateka once, it lasted for 3 years but I did not pursue that sport. I like
pingpong better, but my first love sport was tennis.
7. I am afraid of dolls. They're creepy especially the plastics with those eyes look so real, eyelids are moving and some of them are battery operated to talk! They're scary! Paper dolls were okay especially the custom made paper dolls.
8. I still want to study/work abroad, if only for a short while. Even if just a short course..
9. I'm afraid of frogs.
10. I was an active member of girl scouts since grade 1 until I graduated high school. I received gold medal award together with my 3 classmates in high school for civic work which gives us an opportunity to be exempted in C.A.T. but I still took that subject just for a taste of somewhat army training. I like being in girl scout better. I don't want people bossing me around!
11. I never never tried any illegal drugs in my life and so does sex. Believe it or not but that's the truth.
12. I like sports and would love to learn a new sport and its odd that I hate PE way back in college. I don't know, I am not good in math either but PE was the least favorite subject.
13. My frustrations include growing dumb, growing alone and failing. I'm struggling how to gain back the focus every time I fail and it takes time to get over it.
14. I dig sad themed movies, vengeance, environmental awareness, political motivated, witch/magic and cartoons. Recently
Slumdog Millionaire has become the number 1 on my list and that is not on the list of movie themes that I mentioned previously - I call it an exception.
15. I don't eat apples but I drink apple juice.
16. My favorite subject when I was in elementary was
HeKaSi.
17. Our house collapsed last 1990 earthquake.
18. Way back in high school most of my classmates dreamt of becoming a doctor, lawyer, nurse or teacher. I dreamt to become a marine biologist after I seen the movie Flipper. My second choice was veterinary medicine but look at me now I landed in an IT field.Go figure.
19. I want to learn Japanese.
20. I forgive but I don't forget. I give second chances or even third but still I don't forget. I am not a fan of promises.
21. I have hard time sleeping without a mosquito net.
22. I am better in one on one talk rather than in a group conversation.
24. I love to draw. I'll scan some of my works for you to see.
25. If I were a boy my parents would name me Emilio, after my grandfather. Lucky me I am a girl so it became Emilie.
Found this movie in my movie archives. I am not familiar of the title but when I played it and found out that Emma Robers is on the lead role I decided to give it a try since I know her from movie Aquamarine and Nancy Drew. To add, Alex Pettyfer played the role of Freddie Kingsley, son of the school's headmistress and Poppy's love interest.He's from the movie Stormbreaker, he was a cute little boy then but now he grown up to be Burberry hottie.
