Seven wonders of MY world

So I’ve been tagged. And here are my sevens =)

(note to reader: some of the stuff may not reflect on my personality accurately as I just wrote what I had in mind at the time being. And trust me, I’m as yo-yo-ish as one can get ;p)

7 things that scare me:
- ghosts and supernatural stuff (although I’ve never had any experience regarding the matter)
- the dark (I always sleep with the lights on, and my mum always tells me off about it. Heh)
- thunders and lightning
- my unnatural laziness
- not being a good Muslim, not good enough to earn His blessings
- snakes, lizards… reptiles, basically. AND frogs (euurgh),
- failure and not living up to people’s expectations

7 things I like most:
- reading and writing
- astronomy (childhood ambition: astronaut and later, astrophysicist)
- watching my cats frolicking in the grass (or doing anything else for that matter. Even watching them eat brings me a sense of pleasure)
- taking pictures
- shopping (an excellent therapy, my friends would agree with me ;p)
- Disney movies (for the happy endings- I just adore happy endings in a movie)
- Mother nature

7 important things in my room:
- my Quran mushaf
- munch-ons
- my books
- my handphone
- my memorabilia and soft toys (mostly gifts from dear ones)
- my laptop
- the mirror

7 random facts about me:
- I have been wearing specs on and off since I was 12 and had had like, 7 specs already to date (and still going through adapting phase. Heh).
- I often receive compliments for my handwriting =)
- I’m a pack rat AND sentimental junkie- it would take me hours (even days) to declutter my room, and I would keep everything in the end anyway.
- I have this big thing for cards- would buy them just because they’re beautiful and save them for a rainy day (to give to people lah).
- People often get a false first impression of me and my character (I won’t elaborate, but looks can be deceiving! Lol) and later would rag me about it (often claiming they had been duped. Yeah right!).
- I love computer games but have ditched them a while ago for some unknown reasons (hmm… maybe I should start playing again… hehe my mother would totally kill me for this)
- ‘Bullet Train’ is the title given to me during our class party earlier this year. Go figure =)

7 things I plan to do before I die:
- become a good muslim doctor (this one’s quite popular, so I’ve seen ;p)
- travel around the world with my best friend (we already have a long-standing date. Heh)
- sponsor my parents’ trip around the world (or at least their backpacks. Haha)
- memorise the whole of Quran
- master Arabic language and pick up two or three more foreign tongues (would love French, Mandarin and Japanese)
- do voluntary works (especially in the field of da’wah)
- write a book =)

7 things I can do:
- smile at strangers
- debate about almost any issue
- make small talks
- buy nice gifts for people
- give ideas and solve people’s problems, or at least comfort them about it (somehow people often turn to me for ideas and solutions to their crises)
- procrastinate (master procrastinator herself, I am ;p)
- appreciate nature

7 things I can’t do:
- save and manage my money
- make study notes (really)
- love maths (don’t hate it, just can’t love it)
- avoid trouble (to borrow from Harry Potter, trouble usually finds me)
- watch horror movies
- dance (not graceful enough. hehe)
- be a model sister (I’m forever stuck in the evil-sistersville. Hoho)

7 things I say the most:
- macam (one of my friends’ favourite activities- counting the number of times the word ‘macam’ crops up in my sentences)
- konon
- waaa…
- tipu!
- Ya Allah!
- Tapi kan…
- chop! (usually in repetition)

7 celebrity crushes:
- Jude Law
- Prince Eric in ‘The Little Mermaid’ (ni kire celebrity ke… heheh)
- The guy in ‘Chasing Liberty’ (the British accent!)
- Roger Federer
- John Mayer
- Clay Aiken
- Johnny Depp

ps: Al-fatihah to our late first lady, Datin Seri Endon Mahmood who passed away this morning...

be a model sister (I’m forever stuck in the evil-sistersville. Hoho)
--> Me too!

I often receive compliments for my handwriting =)
--> I can be the witness here! =)

I’m a pack rat AND sentimental junkie- it would take me hours (even days) to declutter my room, and I would keep everything in the end anyway.
--> Yup, seen her room with my own eyes!! Lol. Got one of her junks... hahaha. The frame u gave me, remember?

‘Bullet Train’ is the title given to me during our class party earlier this year. Go figure =)
--> She TALKS like a bullet train!

So, people, now we know who the REAL Safiyyah Azmi is. =P

Fi- I too love this song and his unique rendering. Solitaire will always be evergreen, no matter how they render it.

Add me to the list of people who also receive compliments for their handwriting. We are the rare breed now, you know!!
And you talk like a bullet train? I have a couple of friends who have mastered the art as well. It would be interesting to group you guys togeteher in an usrah. I guess you can handle ALL the topics from heaven to earth, in one sitting. :))
Thanks for responding. Am indeed enlightened.

Prince Eric in ‘The Little Mermaid’ (ni kire celebrity ke… heheh) --> Wowee.. ade jugak orang yang same with me.. hahaha..

Yes -- I noticed the little player at the right there. :D Haven't heard the song before. I recently came across Clay Aiken's 'Invisible' and I've been addicted to it ever since! Before, I think I've heard 'The Way' on TV, which I also like very much.

(I don't quite like Southern accents, though. ^^;)

Oh, the photos are gorgeous, down there. The sunrise, masya Allah! :O

And yes, some people do say 'macam' (or rather, 'cam') a bit too often! :P

i used to have a very overactive imagination concerning ghosts, which is actually the main reason why i'm still a chicken when it comes to horror movies.. i don't anything to jumpstart that imagination again!

wonder what happens if two Bullet Trains meet each other... i'd love to hear a conversation between you and my roommate Haniz!

we share the same opinion on maths ;)

ifos said...

Mak: Insyaallah to the sponsorship =)

Afie: the real me, eh? People often say I'm not a difficult person to figure out ;P Don't know whether that's a good thing or not ;)

Pycnogenol: I can't handle ALL topics, for example, say, maths ;) lol. I guess the reason I talk fast is becos my mind is usually like a bursting dam and I want to get everything out before I forget them (I've got this really bad immediate memory<-- or whatever you call it) =P

Ayumi: Eric is simply gorgeous ;)

Aneesah: Clay Aiken's voice is simply gorgeous ;)

Crimsonskye: My friend Azleen won't agree with us on that last line... haha. And your roommate Haniz sounds like a nice person. haha~

failure and not living up to people’s expectations ----> Something we share in common

shopping ----> Yup! Excellent therapy, it is (though not the cheapest T_T)

I often receive compliments for my handwriting =) ----> Let's have a go at comparing handwriting then, shall we? Mine's pretty nice too! Hoho...

procrastinate ----> If you're the master, then what does that make me? The Maharajah perhaps.

avoid trouble ---> Hahah...is there anyone on the face of the planet who can dodge this?
