I'm boring to most of my friends when it comes to these things;) hahahaha;) I hate the smell of fried food--makes me puke! i recently discovered that the sight of lechon makes me dizzy na;) i hate clutter, i can't have mess around me coz it'll make me feel lazy. i hate wearing heels or closed shoes all day and wouldn't trade my flip flops for anything;)i love surprises--giving and receiving them;) as in sobra! i'd think of the most unusual or exciting manner i could make someone smile;) i'm a passionate person--to people and to the things i do;) i love as much as i feel pain and get hurt. my tears are so babaw and my laugh is so infectious, it's hillarious;) you'd know i'm in the movie house with just hearing my laugh;) when you see me quiet, don't worry--i'm not mad;) it's either im in super deep thought or i've not had my dose of choco
