A meme cos I've been tagged!!!!

A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."

 1) When I discover some new food that I like, I'll keep gorging myself with it for the next 2 - 3 weeks (not everyday, but almost every other day) until I'm sick & tired of it. After that, I'll lose my interest and will not crave for it again.

2) I'm addicted to the Internet. I surf in the office, when I reach home until it's bedtime. It's worse on hols / weekend - from the moment I wake up until I go to bed. But I don't aimlessly surf - I'll always be on LJ, ff.net, or G-market. I know - so boring, huh.

3) I hate socialising.... period. I don't mean going out with girlfriends but casual dinners between colleagues and the big boss who is on his annual visit, office functions, wedding dinners where you do not know anybody else except the bride/groom, parties where you do not know anyone else but the host. Why? Because I hate making small talk - I find it fake and patronising. Bottomline - I'm anti-social?? Ha Ha Ha

4) I have a fiery temper. Anything & everything can just trigger me off, but then I also simmer down pretty fast. After that I would feel like a real bitch and apologise (well, most of the time if I did lose it for no valid reason). But usually only my family and good friends see this side of me. That's so wrong, right? But I'm truly think that I can be my true self with people that love me whom I care and am comfortable with.......

5) I have the attention span of a 6 year old. I will lose interest in stuff pretty quickly - especially sports/health related ones.
Eg : 
1)  I picked up inline skating and was very enthusiastic about it. Bought the skates, new sports attire and the works but promptly lost interest within 6 months. I think it's because I tried and found that I'm not good at it hence why bother?
2) 2 visits to the fitness centre (California Fitness specifically) and I swear never to step into one again. Perspiration and a pounding heartbeat (not related to the hunk in pheripheral view) is so not my thing.

6) I just wanna be happy and contented with my life. I'm happy just having a job that makes enough to supplement husband's income to support the family, and have a loving family. And I'm free to indulge myself occasionally with some shopping, and pick up new interests along the way to while away any extra time I have (when I'm not on the Internet). Sometimes I wonder why is it that I have no ambitions to climb the corporate ladder, unlike my peers. I rationalise that the higher you are, the more work and stress you'll be exposed to so it's not worth it. Afterall there's no free ride in this world, correct?

7) Something light hearted - I'm currently obsessed with Saiyuki, Code Geass & Vampire Knights fan-fiction. I've been reading and re-reading them non-stop, and hunting for new ones. Any good recommendations???

I'm skipping B & C cos my f-lists are quite a close community and most probably are already tagged one way or another. Or because I'm plain lazy. He He He

Psssttt... I'm feeling uncomfortable cos I strained my shoulder, probably cos I'm hunched over my computer for such long periods of time, and it's killing me. 2 visits to the doctor and loads of painkiller later, the bloody twinge is still there and annoying the hell out of me. :P

The story is The Other Half of Myself by YenGirl at FFN. I see it's 30 chapters (that, I already knew) and over 200,000 words.

I can't vouch for it, as I haven't read it, but my daughter is almost as picky as I am, so it should be good, or at least readable. The introduction is literate, at least. She does admit they may be a bit OOC, but she thinks the pairing itself is OOC. She likes it for the lulz, as she would put it. Enjoy!

Oh, I've read that one. Very nice and a tad OOC.

In fact, most of the VK fics I've read are a bit OOC but they're still good.As long as they're not ridiculously OOC (like a total personality change), I'm fine.

Total IC-ness rule only applies to my one true love - Saiyuki. LOL!!

As I said, my daughter thinks, and I concur, that Zero x Kaname as a pairing is OOC to begin with. She doesn't mind OOC if it's for the lulz and there's still a semblance of the canon personality.

Personally, I ship Kaname and Ichijo. Ichijo seems the most 'normal' of the Night Class and is Kaname's right hand man, so to speak.

Oh I see.

As for me, I think Kaname and Zero as the perfect pairing cos of their blood bond. I cannot recall if Kaname drank Zero's blood (will have to re-watch the anime again) but Zero definitely fed of Kaname and this is what makes the pairing perfect. He He He

I suppose that's why I prefer the fanfics to the manga. LOL!!!
