10 Random Facts (tagged by Ron Cruz)

Post the rules:

1. Each blogger starts with ten random facts/habits about themselves.
2. Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their ten things and post these rules.
3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose ten people to get tagged and list their names.
4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

• I’ve watched every single episode of Charmed at least five times
  Huge fan! Even had a phase where my email address was halliwell_phoebe@charmedmail.com. and had everyone call me Phoebe or Pheebs (some of my college friends still do). Cute story… my brother found out about it and wrote down "Phoebe" on my Christmas gift tag.

• I was nicknamed Peachy in high school
  It all started as joke when someone called me Angelu and I looked back. Henceforth, I was dubbed, Peachy. Actually, I never thought it would catch on but it did. And before I knew it, even some of my teachers would call me Peachy instead of my real name.

• I was interviewed on Teysi ng Tahanan and the Inside Story when I was 10
  They both did a segment on gifted children and I was one of them… hehehe… kidding. It’s actually one of my childhood friends who’s the gifted one.

• I text using my left hand
  Which is funny because I’m right handed.

• I hate reading
  Not that I hate literature (don’t get me wrong, I’m a big fan) but I just don’t enjoy reading books, which is probably a good thing because the moment I pick one up and finish it, it’s probably worth reading.

• If I were in the States, I’d probably be a Republican
  Red states here I come. Yes, I’m a gay republican. I’m all for tradition and family values. And yes, I’m more conservative than liberal.

• I’m homophobic
  Yes, I’m a homophobic homo. Weird, huh?! I’m probably one of the very few gay guys who never enjoyed hanging out in Malate (I’ve only been there once or twice and the only reason why I went for the second time was because I didn’t have much of a choice). And you’d barely see me hanging out in the gay scene. The thing this is, there are just certain gay people who (i’m sorry to admit but) scares the bejesus out of me. I don’t know why but they do.
  
  
• I’m emotionally imbalanced
  This fact scares me. I don’t cry when I know I should and cry when I know I shouldn’t. You know how everyone cried when the watched the Notebook? Well, I didn’t. I didn’t even cry when one of my closest friends died. I cried though when I watched the Little Mermaid 2 (when Melody tore the wall down), the Mighty Ducks (when they won), Sister Act 2 (also when they won the competition). Actually, I still do when I watch them again. I also cry when they send someone home on American Idol, when I watch series finales of my favorite shows, and when the overture plays when I watch musicals.

• I don’t swim in public pools
  I just don’t.

• I’m a hopeless romantic
  No matter how strong my convictions are saying I’m not, don’t ever believe me. I know deep down that I am and there’s no changing that. Funny how my life (and everyone else’s) gets screwed up a whole lot and yet, at the end of the day, I still believe in happy endings.
