10 Random Facts About Me

1. I've started drinking black coffee at age 10. I just love the smell of brewed coffee early in the morning and I can really be cranky if for some reason I could not have a cup before going to work.
2. My ambition when I was young in chronological order - to be a teacher, a scientist, a nun, a flight stewardess, a journalist doing field work in war zones around the world, a psychiatrist but ended up going to business school instead.
3. I grew up being daddy's fave girl. Can't remember any major event during my growing up years that he missed. He's the most influential person in my life and I miss him very much.

5. I was so into photography that I almost had a nude photo taken. I even participated in conceptualizing the whole look, from the pose, play of shadows and the finish. But (un)fortunately the city was hit by a black-out when we were about to go through with the pictorial (the studio has no generator). We waited it out for about 30 mins because I already had my hair and make-up done but we ended cancelling it and I never gathered enough courage to do it again.
6. I use to have a very active third eye but I had a priest perform a ritual to close it.

8. No matter how tired I am during the day, I cannot sleep early and I always wake-up before dawn.
9. I still have my first notebook in school, some of my report cards and letters and cards given by friends from my grade school up to this time.
