Numbers 41 - 60 of the 100 things about me list....
41. My father’s side of the family has 3 sets of twins, twin aunts, twin cousins and twin nieces.
42. I hope I’ll be able to give birth to twins when I get married and get pregnant some day.
43. If I have twins I hope they’ll be identical girls… because I used to love reading Sweet Valley.
44. Right now I mostly read my required texts and I don’t usually enjoy reading them.
45. My favourite writer would be Anne Rice and my favourite book by her would be The Queen of The Damned.
46. My lecturer tells me that reading junk fiction will pollute the mind.
47. I don’t usually read classical or contemporary greats unless its necessary. If forced to choose a favourite, I’d go for Kate Chopin.
48. I hate Lord of the Rings and think that people who boast about loving Tolkien are showing off a little about their refined choices.
49. However, I loved the movie because Orlando Bloom and Liv Tyler’s in it.
50. I love Harry Potter but I hated the movie. I think Hermione looks too pretty to be Hermione and Prof Snape has a whiny voice.
51. My favourite movie of all time would be The Shawshank Redemption… but I have not read the book from which it was adapted yet.
52. I enjoy reading trashy romance novels though. The Mills & Boon kind.
53. I’ve tried writing a trashy novel once. 3 pages of that was dedicated to sex which I ‘cut and pasted’ from several Mill & Boon novels.
54. I lost that silly attempt but I’m still looking for it.
55. I dream of becoming as big as JK Rowling once but so far its been very hard for me to write in a Malaysian context. I’m still trying.
56. I used to love Tom Cruise and hate Nicole Kidman because she took him away from me, but then I fell in love with her and now I hate Tom Cruise … I hate Penelope Cruz even more because she took Mr. Cruise away from Kidman.
57. I once liked a boy for 6 years without telling him at all… when I finally told him I found out he was bisexual and I cried for 3 hours because it meant that we’ll never be together … ever.
58. The above happened just 2 weeks after I agreed to become my boyfriend’s steady.
59. When I study, my books go all over the room, on the table, on the bed, on the floor, on the chair… but I end up reading stories instead.
60. I minor in Literature because I think it’s a good excuse to study stories instead of mugging for abstract nonsense like Philosophy or Psychology.
