I'm staying at my aunt's house tonight, and their entire family is leaving for Bintan tomorrow, for holiday. Gosh, this means I'll be stuck alone in their house for the whole day tomorrow. Is that a good thing?

Yeah well, at least I have two lappys to play with: mine and my cousin's. Teehee.

I just realised something: small kids these days are becoming more and more vulgar. My 4-year-old nephew uses "Oh my god" in practically every single sentence, and scolds in chinese/hokkien for almost everything he doesn't get. My 4-year-old godbro knows a whole string of profanities, with his favourite being the F word, which he uses on a daily basis.

What is the world becoming?

And I just realised that I got tagged for a quiz by Joseph, and I didn't notice until today. Eeek. So this post shall be long, cause ima do two quizzes from his blog. :D

--

Quiz one.

1. Do you have secrets?
Why wouldn't I have?

2. Would you fall in love with someone younger than you?
I hope I won't, cause it'd be pretty weird.

3. Do you enjoy going to school?
Well, honestly, most of my writing was done during lessons. I have absolutely no interest in boring, unimportant lessons that won't have any use for me in the future.

4. What would you do with a million dollars?
Buy the stuff that I urgently need/want, and save the rest. I can't possibly spend it all in one day, can I?

5. Will you fall in love with your best friend?
Depends. They say that many people do, and if he's my type, why not? He'd know me well enough by then.

6. Which is more blessed: loving someone, or being loved by someone?
Is it too much to ask for both? Unrequited love is painful, and it hurts a lot emotionally. But of cause, if someone loves you until he gets obsessed, that ain't good.

7. Who do you idolise?
Thou shalt not have an idol before me. (:

8. If the person you secretly like is attached, what will you do?
I don't know? Emo? Cry? Hmm, but it takes a great deal for me to like someone, as in, really like-like.

9. Is there anything that has made you extremely happy?
Extremely? Hmm, I can't remember, actually.

10. Do you have any regrets?
Have you read my fanfic called Regrets? Understatement of the century. It's just one of my most major regrets though, I have a lot more where that came from.

11. How would you see yourself in 10 years time?
Somehow, it's clouded. Let's just take each day as it comes, kay? :D

12. Who are currently the most important people to you?
My family, my "family", my friends. You all. (:

13. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
Hmm, a pretty nice guy once you get to know him, and he's someone who shares my impatience and whose writing niche area is the complete opposite of mine. :D Emo ftw.

14. Would you rather be single and rich or married but poor?
Married but poor. I ain't a miser, and at least I have someone to be with through all the tough times.

15. What is your favourite colour?
YELLOW. Gosh, how many times must I repeat this?

16. Would you give your all in a relationship?
It's either all or nothing, and nothing would make it completely pointless.

17. What would you do if someone whom you hate ask for your forgiveness?
Depends on his/her sincerity. I'd brush it off then, and don't mind it unless they do something that makes me hate them again, since it takes quite a lot for me to hate someone.

18. Would you forgive and forget no matter how horrible a thing the someone has done?
It all depends, really, on a lot of factors, such as my mood that day, the amount of sincerity the person has, and what did he/she do in the first place.

19. Do you prefer being single or having a relationship?
Single for now, but if it's supposed to happen, it will.

20. 6 people to tag: Ricky papa, Junxian, Bakamono Kor, Chenwei, KC didi, Arnold.

Quiz two.

Ten things you probably know about me:

NUMBERONE: I write emo maple fanfictions, and some non-maple emo fics too. But I can't pen action scenes. Whee, the opposite of Joseph.

NUMBERTWO: I like yellow, and all brightbright colours. :D

NUMBERTHREE: I like to poke people. Alot. -smiles innocently-

NUMBERFOUR: My maple friends live all over Singapore, and even extend over the causeway. Yulong never ceases to point it out to people. Yes, I'm VERY sociable. Teehee.

NUMBERFIVE: I regret taking up Japanese, and it's seen by my constant ponning of lessons.

NUMBERSIX: Most of my friends are guys. ._____. Good insight into the minds of the opposite gender, I suppose. Well yes, this does mean that I pretty much understand what they look for in girls. -shrugs-

NUMBERSEVEN: I got alot of CIP hours this year, the highest for the whole level in DHS. Teehee. I get paid for my CIP too! (:

NUMBEREIGHT: I hate wearing skirts and dresses. They are just so.... impractical? :D

NUMBERNINE: I'm going to VJC for IP next year. Buhbye DHS, I'll come back to visit though. :X

NUMBERTEN: I are basketballer. Teehee.

Kay, ten things you DON'T know about me (or at least, I hope you don't, or it'd totally defeat the purpose of this):

NUMBERONE: I used to love to wear dresses and skirts and I hated wearing shorts. My favourite dress was this purple Winnie the Pooh one, and I still have it till this day. Almost all the pics of me when I was little show me in various dresses. Gosh. .____. Hard to believe, no?

NUMBERTWO: My favourite colours were purple and pink when I first started primary school. Then, after my bestie introduced me to Power Rangers, it become yellow, cause I was captivated by the bright colour in the show. Lol.

NUMBERTHREE: I used to love watching Barney. Once, when one of the CDs couldn't play, and my dad said it was dirty, I went to wash it in the sink, and it got spoilt. So I cried and cried and cried till everyone in my house panicked and they called my mom, who was in New Zealand at that point in time, and told her to buy more Barney CDs home for me. :X Embarassing revelation.

NUMBERFOUR: Majorities of my besties have been guys.
1) In kindergarten, it was either Justin or Toby, with all the pokemon and the make-belief stuffs and all.
2) In my first four years of primary school, it was Nigel, and yes, the power rangers and the neopets and the random phone calls when he migrated.
3) Next two years I had Cheryl, who persuaded me to apply DSA to DHS with her. She didn't make it, and I did, so I just went. Rawr, it all replayed again this year, when I already agreed with Isaac at the end of P6 to apply for VJC. I made it through, he didn't. Gosh, Dejavu.
4) Sec1 was Yongming, then we sorta drifted apart in sec2. Can't remember why. :X
Hmm, yes, I'm pretty much lacking a bestie now, and my own normal group of friends that I hang out with. It has both its downsides and its perks, I suppose.

NUMBERFIVE: My bed is covered with softtoys. I have at least 10 of them, and I still want more. I hug a different one to sleep each night, and I even have problems deciding which one to hug, cause I don't wana pick favourites. Yes, I'm weird, but hey, I like it like that.

NUMBERSIX: I'm redesigning my room, and it's now going to be filled with alot of childish stuff, like a giant pencil to hang my bags, a yellow side table to do my work, bright-coloured ikea shelves, and not to forget, an ADORABLE chair in the shape of a teddybear, with its arms as the armrests and all. Awwwww, so cute, but oh so expensive.

NUMBERSEVEN: I have a hidden personality. Well yes, to most people I appear to be the tomboyish, playing-it-cool, and hard-to-get one, but well, underneath that is just a little girl with a fetish for all things cute and simply adorable. Teehee. Well yes, someone has said that I'm actually pretty sweet and caring, so don't faint/throw up or whatever.
Technically, it is a more vulnerable side, so to get through, one has to prove his/her worth. Hmm, so probably, my future boyfriend/my close friends ("family" included, kayy) will be the only ones who get to experience it firsthand. I think I'm beginning to display a lot of the "solitary-emo-crying-alot-and-needs-comforting-and-reassurance" bit though. .___.

NUMBEREIGHT: Well, I think some people already know this, but I still do ballet. .____. No, I don't dance in a tutu, I dance in a leotard, with a nice chiffon skirt. (: Oh, so soft and fluffy. Haha.

NUMBERNINE: I was somewhat suicidal a week ago, even though it wasn't that obvious. No, relax peoples, I didn't cut my wrists or something, I just harboured these thoughts, and luckily, I had a little bit of counselling before things spiralled out of control.

NUMBERTEN: Somehow, I just feel like I'm not loved. .____. I don't know, really, why I feel this way. No, I'm not despo for a boyfriend. It's just that, well, like my family's been too preoccupied by other stuffs, and I'm being neglected in some way. Maybe it's just me, and my weird way of perceiving stuff.
