TAG NO.1

List eight (8) random facts about yourself. Tag eight people at the end of this post and list their names. Let them know they’ve been tagged by leaving them a comment on their blogs.

#1. My hobby is military history, and I can pretty much go on for hours about every military tactic used, from the Assyrians four thousand years ago, to how Napoleon could have conquered Continental Europe, to why Singapore is militarily superior to Malaysia. :P

#2. One of the people that I admire the most is Klaus von Stauffenberg. Yes, he was German. Yes, he served under Hitler. If you do not know anything about him, you seriously need to do some reading.

#3. I am only allergic to one thing, and one thing alone. Cold temperature.

#4. I can kick myself in the chin. Yes, with feet, not with knees. :) If I am not wearing shoes, feel free to ask me to demonstrate.

#5. I cannot stand butterflies. If you don't know this yet, you need to know me more.

#6. I love being underestimated. When I go to class in my slacks, shirt, and tie, with my glasses, everyone assumes that I'm a geek. Until of course, they see me dance in Jaipur. :) Or when I am in my dance attire and in Philosophy or Sociology class. Guess who got maximum extra points for class participation? ;)

#7. I am 5'3 and proud of it. If I was any shorter, I would really have a problem with getting items off shelves. If I was any taller, I wouldn't be able to be as nimble on my feet when I dance.

#8. I didn't know this until last week, but I can bootyshake. :P And as eye-witnesses would tell you, I can bootyshake FAST. ROFL!
