100 Truths About Me.

The lovely Elle has tagged me with this cute questionnaire and I obviously didn't have the tiniest urge to resist. So cheers to you girlie for giving me the idea for my first post of the month. I'm very happy to participate =)

001. Name → Marjie
002. Nickname(s)→ Marjie, MJ, Marj, Maj
004. Zodiac sign → Sagittarius
005. Male or female → 100% lady.
006. Elementary → St. Paul College (Paranaque, Philippines)
007. Middle School → I skipped it since I was already 14 when we moved here in the U.S. and they decided to put me in 9th grade right away.
008. High School → Independence High (CA.) and Chandler High School (AZ.)
009. College School → Chandler-Gilbert Community College, AZ.
009b. University → Arizona State University (ASU)...go sun devils!
010. Hair color → Dark brown like the exact color of my eyes. Somehow, they match quite well =) .
011. Long or short → Long during the winter, and short during summer (something only girls get the logic of)
012. Loud or Quiet → Loud. I view "quietness" as being timid, and I could never be that person.
013. Jumpers or Jeans → Jeans. Always.
014. Phone or Camera → Phone. I'm not the best photographer in the world, but I am good with conversations =).
015. Health freak → a bit.
016. Drink or Smoke? → smoke, no. drink, occasionally.
017. Do you have a crush on someone? → Yes. Funny guy Sergio Cilli for his wit and personality, and the rest of the the male hosts of Infomania on Current TV (that's right, I keep myself well informed).


018. Eat or Drink → Three times a day. Sometimes more if I'm bored, lonely, heartbroken, or low on self esteem.
019. Piercings → Three....one in my right ear, and two in my left ear.
020. Tattoos → None. I was never into them.

FIRSTS:
023. First piercing → When I was a baby. In Manila, a girl gets her ears pierced in the hospital to distinguish her gender when she's born (true story).
024. First best friend → A former neighbor named Elsie. I wonder what she's doing now.
025. First award → Most Positive Attitude, freshmen year, for dance. I still have the trophy to prove it.
026. First crush → At age 5, A guy named JR . Again, I wonder what he's doing now.
027. First pet → Blutoos, my puppy when I was a child.
028. First big vacation → Vegas and San Francisco holiday of 2004. Nothing beats the family reunion.
030. First big birthday → My very first birthday in 1984. I don't really remember how it went, but I saw the pictures and it looks like I missed out on a lot. I mean just look at all those presents I don't remember getting.



CURRENTLY:
049. Eating → Nothing
050. Drinking → Nothing
052. I'm about to → Answer the 53rd question
053. Listening to → XM radio currently playing the acoustic version of "Sunny Came Home" by the Shawn Colvin
054. Plans for today → I'd like to battle insomnia first. Then I'd tackle the rest of the day when I wake up.
055. Waiting for → Morning.

YOUR FUTURE:
058. Want kids? → Yes. In spite of my love for independence, I DO want to be a mother someday.
059. Want to get married? → Yes. I'd like to grow old with someone as well.
060. Careers in mind → A chef and a restaurant owner. Absolutely far from being a doctor like I used to want. I know. But things changed when I became the O.R. patient.

WHICH IS BETTER IN THE BOY/GIRL YOU LIKE?
**Since this is based on Sergio Cilli, my answers will be very limited. I've never met the guy in person
068. Lips or eyes → Eyes, since he comes with mustache and beard. But he did go clean-shaved two weeks ago, and the lips are not that bad either.
070. Shorter or taller - On TV he's tiny and two dimensional. But with the awareness of how short I am in real life, in person I assume he's taller than me (and hopefully three dimensional).
072. Romantic or spontaneous → I wouldn't know.
073. Nice stomach or nice arms → Adorable smile.
074. Sensitive or loud→ Funny.
075. Hook-up or relationship → Again, I wouldn't know.
076. Trouble maker or hesitant → He's probably neither. I have this impression of him as a calm guy that has a few charming tricks up his sleeves (man....I gotta fly to L.A. to see one of his shows).

HAVE YOU EVER:
080. Lost glasses/contacts → Surprisingly neither. Since I'm almost blind without them, I can't afford not to know where they are when I need them.
081. Ran away from home → Never.
082. Held a gun/knife for self defense → A knife, to scare my most annoying nanny when I was a kid. But it didn't work. I think I got scared of it more than she did.
083. Killed somebody → Maybe a few bugs in my house, and the biggest thing I killed was a flying roach. Does anyone know a good place to hide from the authorities?
084. Broke someone's heart → I think so, back in high school. Although I'm not so sure.
085. Been arrested → Never. But I have been stopped for Jay walking. I got out of it somehow.
087. Cried when someone died → Always.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN:
089. Yourself → Sometimes.
090. Miracles → It depends on what it is. Sometimes they're just coincidences.
091. Love at first sight → No. I believe love needs time to grow. Otherwise, it's lust we're talking about.
092. Heaven → Yes
093. Santa Clause → I used to, until my parents decided to blow their cover when I was 11. I think they got tired of buying those presents since I always end up wanting something else the next year.
094. Tooth Fairy → Never. Anyone who wants my loose teeth won't pay money for them. Trust me!
095. Kiss on the first date → Yes, because I believe in the power of kiss in general when it's done at the right moment. Whether or not it happens on the first date, it's always a waste of time to deny yourself something like it.



ANSWER TRUTHFULLY:
097. Is there one person you want to be with right now → When you're single, there always is.
098. Are you seriously happy with where you are in life → Not always, but I do believe the best is yet to come.
099. Do you believe in God → Yes
100. Post as 100 truths and tag 20 people → I won't reach 20, but to my 5 girls Gemz, Claire, Shyn, Clarise, and Dazzle, this one is for you.

Happy Tagging!
