Ten Things About Me (That I'm Not Sure If I Should Tell You, But I'm Telling You Anyway)

I got the idea from @WorDazza, who was inspired by another user to do just that, so that means we got this from that other user. But anyway, since I just finished my tea and I still can't sleep, I might as well do this given my attention deficit disorder. I may have done this before, but if ever I have, I don't know if this would be the same list. Okay, enough with the intro. Here goes: 1. I am a mother to four beautiful kids (two boys, two girls). Starting it off like this might seem boring, but this is me: I am first and foremost, a mother. My kids are the center of my universe, and I do and will do everything for them, even at the expense of my own happiness. 2. I am in my mid-thirties. But because I hang around with my kids and my younger staff a lot, I feel ten years younger. Sometimes my eldest sound more mature than me. I still dig Justin Bieber, One Direction, and Arianna, and I still watch Spongebob. 3. I love music. I only hope that one day music will also love me back. The kind of music that I listen to depends on my mood: when I hate the world, I head-bang to LIVE's I Alone; when I want to hurt myself, I listen to Celine Dion's I Love You, Goodbye. 4. I love to dance. I was a ballerina as a child. I want to try ballet jazz now and learn how to dance Love Me Like You Do like Maddie Ziegler. 5. I graduated as the class valedictorian in high school. I earned my college degree from our country's top university. I have two master's degrees. I married a random phone caller who did not finish college and was unemployed for the most part of his life. They say bright girls are stupid when it comes to love. 6. I only drink two kinds of alcoholic drinks: beer and tequila. So if you want to knock me unconscious, you know what to do. I was drunk when I first talked to my would-be husband. 7. I'm not good at managing my finances. The reason why I work hard is because I need to earn more to spend more. I don't know how to save. (save? that's a weird word.) I will hire a financial manager, if only I can afford one. 8. I am a Scorpio. I am passionate yet shrewd -- except for matters of the heart. I am easily bored so I tend to complicate many things and make my life harder, hence, the incredible amount of stress that I deal with on a day-to-day basis. A very honest person once told me that I am manipulative and deceptive. Funny, I took that as a compliment. 9. I write to live. Even if I don't need money, I still write because this is how I express myself. I hope one day I can publish my own book and get someone to read it, aside from myself. 10. I am like Mentos. Hard on the outside, but soft inside. Unfortunately, I come on too strong to many people. Imagine being appointed as the head of our disaster rescue team. Heck, that's a man's job! They say that's because I can "mobilize" men. Although many times, I also want to feel fragile and weak, and experience how it is to be rescued, preferably by a knight in shining armor that looks like Channing Tatum. But nah, I don't believe in fairy tales.
