Apparently i got tagged. It's 2am now, so i'll make this quick.

Instructions of the tag: Given a topic, you are to write down your answers in your blog, and then send the same topic to 5 other people. Write down the names of these 5 people and link to them on your blog. Go visit their blogs to notify them that they are tagged. The 5 people who are tagged should, in their own blogs, write down the name and the link of the person who tagged them, answer the same topic, and send it to another 5 people, etc.

Topic: 5 Quirks

1) Impulse buys. Definitely not the case of thinking of buying something today, and gettting it the next.... nooooo. It's more like thinking of getting something today, handing out cash to the cashier the next hour. You can ask Joel and Daryl about KOTOR and Guild Wars. I'm a salesman's dreams come true.

2) I've got an attention span of a baby's. This is bad especially during lectures, but worse when i'm talking to people. So the next time you might when to shoot questions at me to check whether i'm listening. Wait... why am i shooting myself on the foot here?

3) I'm nonsense at remembering names. Which is always a potential banana peel when you have to refer to that person's name later in the conversation. It's like.... when someone introduces his/her name, at that very moment my mind will have this mental block that totally filters the name out of my system. It's a little voice in my head that goes "Dun need to listen to this part of the conversation. You'll forget the name anyway." So, the introduction actually goes like this in my head: "Nice to meet you! My name is *mentalllllll blllooooccccckkkk*. And you are?"

That's when i put on my innocent eyes and sweet smile and go "sorry. i din catch your name just now. What is it again?"

Only to forget it again after he/she repeats it.

4) When someone offers me something to eat by surprise, my initial reponse will be "no thanks", although the biscuit or sweet looks reaaaaaally tempting. So next time i say no, ask me a second time. I really mean yes. Damn chinese genes....

5) I rarely reply my SMSes. Especially those which requires an answer and i haven't made the decision yet. Usually i'll just stare at the msg, think "wah lau... nmind. shall reply later. Maybe an answer will just hit me." then my handphone will go back to my pocket, and the message eventually deleted when there isn;t enuff space in my phone. Quite a process eh?

That's about it. tag 5 pple? hmmm... No need hyperlink la. Eyes half closed already....

My entrepenuer friend back from the days we sold... ermm.. RAM chips and processors. Weiwen.

The gangster of arts fac NUS, the godfather himself Wongcheok.

The fren traitor person who owes me a Hong Kong trip, JJ.

The man with a million quirks (it's hard, but pick your top 5.), Gao.

Murphy's Law himself, packed with a beatles haircut, Guang.

Good night folks... zzzZZzzz
