More like "have to" than "want to"...

This was more like a cold hard stare of “have to” rather than a “want to” ! This tag came from Jolynn. And below are the rules :

* Share 7 facts about yourself.
* Tell 7 unspectacular quirks of yours.
* Tag 7 people, their links and a comment for each blogger.

FACTS
1. I’m a devout Catholic, and I’m absolutely open to interreligious discussion and prayer – like what we used to have in our yesteryears.

2. I have a passion for music. I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember, and I play the piano and the drums. My musical dream takes greater importance than my legal qualification, and it'd be a great insult to me if I fail to live that dream of mine.

3. I’m unafraid of voicing out my opinions – that too, if I know that the crowd I’m talking to is open-minded enough. This explains why I’m far more explicit in my content in the French version of troisnyx* officiel.

4. I still think that Windows XP is the best operating system ever sold. =)

5. I have two irrational fears – one is a fear of cockroaches (speaking of which, there was a huge one in the bathroom today). The other is a fear of being rejected and ridiculed. That came about because of the kind of rejection I faced when in Year 1, and during my first two years of catechism.

6. I look at myself – body, heart and soul, and whenever I assess myself, I notice that I have the body and soul of a Malaysian, but the heart of a Frenchwoman.

7. I lost my mother last year and two siblings back when I was younger. I loved my mother deeply. I never got around to telling many people but I know that those who are close to me do know how much I loved her. And had she been here, she’d have lifted me out of my sorrow and helped me live my dream…

Okay, off my soapbox now, let’s head on to my unspectacular quirks.
1. My favourite games are those from the Kingdom Hearts Series, Jak II and Jak 3. As the first Kingdom Hearts put so much of emphasis on Sora battling the darkness, I used to be so afraid of the dark (in case a Heartless with yellow beady eyes sprung out at me !).

2. Not very long ago, my language (especially French) was verging towards vulgarity – no thanks to the cutscenes in Jak II and Jak 3, which I played in French. I think while I was doing my spoken B2 (the exam before the C1), the examiners noticed it - and maybe it was because of this that I didn't do particularly well.

3. While the rest of the class is talking about Flo Rida or Chris Brown or some other Billboard class act, I sit alone and listen to Alizée, Mylène Farmer and Zazie.

4. Prior to the 12th of April last year (when I got my drum kit), I used to drum on pillows – not on hard surfaces, for fear that people would start throwing insults at me. I had that habit of drumming on pillows ever since I was three. The sound of the pillows was rather soft, but bass-toned (I’d say), and whenever I was in dire need of music, I’d just tap on the pillow. Well… I still do it now, but not as often as I used to do it – I only do so when it’s late at night and I risk waking people up if I play the drums.

5. I have a sleek Seagate hard drive, 320GB… which isn’t working on my poor desktop PC. What’s the use of a goddamned hard drive with all that memory when this pint-sized PC can’t even power it up ? =(

6. My alter ego (whom I thought of immortalising on paper, in a story) is a sun-tanned, brown-haired, half-French girl named Aimée Duchemin.

7. Prior to using Blogger, I used to write my posts on Windows Live Spaces. And I treasured that space like gold ! The downside of it all was this – I couldn’t customise that space using CSS, and I couldn’t backdate posts, and I had separate journals for lyrics and life. It was in October last year that I started unifying everything right here, on troisnyx* officiel. Some time later, I became disturbed by the things that were happening, and I also found some new ideas for posts – which, if written in English, would cause the closure of troisnyx* officiel and my imprisonment in ISA – and so the new troisnyx* officiel was formed today.
