7.5 Things about me

1) I hate conforming. Like an angsty teen, I still like to shock and provoke; sometimes for the sheer pleasure of it. But it’s taken a milder form now as I grace through the years.

2) I love oldies even when I was a kid. That means at 10 years old in the 80’s, I enjoyed music from the 60s. Which means now, I love super-oldies.

3) I was born with my hair standing up. And it continued to stand in my toddler years. Mum always had to comb it down. They say babies born like that are STUBBORN. I proved it once again.

4) I have 2 mothers. One mum is the first wife, she brought me up. The other mum is my biological mother, she is the second wife. She was there about 3-4 years of my life… I think

5) Since I was a kid, I always had this paranoia that someone somewhere is watching. Maybe he’s even using binoculars. It’s weird and irrational… but the feeling has always been there. So as an adult today, I like to do a sudden turn around to make sure no one is looking or following me.

6) I love to sing. As a kid, when I was sad (i.e Mum scolded me), I would look for my dog, Princess, and look at her and sing. And her eyes spoke volumes when I did that, like she knew I was sad. And she would not wag her tail as usual.

7) I miss Princess. She was an Alsatian mixed breed. Just like me, Mixed. They say when you are of a mixed race, you never really belong. Both sides feel you don’t totally look like them. Both see you as belonging to the Other.

7.5) I like bright, citrusy colours because they cheer me up.
