Having missed the chance to write up a post for the #gettoknowme challenge by @anomadsoul when I was tagged by my dear friend, @elizacheng, I've decided to write a much similar post called '5 Things You Should Know About Me'.

I actually do enjoy writing posts like these because it allows me to be 'genuine' to my readers and followers which makes things 'real'. It is also always easier to write about it because it is real and personal. So I would like if you would want to continue this challenge to tag 3 of your friends to carry on the #5thingsaboutme challenge. What better way to spread the 'intimate' vibes by making it a challenge and hey! I would love to read yours too!

For @anomadsoul's post, you would have to select your previous posts that you think represents you and would help Steemians to get to know you better. But for #5thingsaboutme, you can just go wild and crazy about the whole idea. You can write about what you like or don't like, you can write about what you do while ur pooping, or your hobbies. At the end of the challenge, tag 3 more friends to pass the baton. As simple as that.

And now, to get on with this!~

5 Things You Should Know About Me

I'm an INTJ

I think that one of the fastest way to get to know someone is by their personality or temperaments. Usually I would recommend my friends to do the myer briggs personality test if they haven't already not because I want to put them under a microscope and know all their deep dark secrets... but it's pretty important because you tend to understand why he/she does the things she do during certain situation.

For me, I'm an INTJ which shouts Introvert, Intuitive, Thinking and Judging, now before we all jump the gun at 'judging', or 'A HA! I knew zord judges me everytime he looks at me'. Truth be told, yes I do judge, at least a little but there are pros and cons to it. Anyways... I am an Introvert, and as much as it seemed like I'm an extrovert on Steemit, is because I feel safe and comfortable behind the keyboard. You don't get to see my face and at most, hear my voice on my talkshows. So there will be times when zord suddenly disappears and you can't find me online, there are a few factors that that would happen. First one is because I need to get away from people and hibernate my introverted self(That's how introverts recuperate) and secondly, I don't like you. HAHAHa Just KIDDING. It's mostly the first one, maybe.... :P

I don't mind spending a fortune on good food

Many of you know me for my food adventures during my meetups and my photos. If you're on my instagram, you would've thought I'm some kind of food insta account that spam you with food ads. There are some of my friends who LOVE GOOD FOOD but it is not a main priority to have it, much more spending a little more on it. They are not poor, I know because they can buy figurines which cost thousands but when it comes to food, the nitpick at the price so often.

For me, I don't mind spending thousands on food especially if it gives a new tasting experience or for quality ingredients. My satisfied tummy makes me a happy man.

I can play 5 instruments

Being in an Asian family, it's like a norm that our parents send us to music school to pick up the piano. Ask most of the Asian parents around, and they would be like....'YES, we must excel our kids in all fields and take over the world'. Muahahah..

When I was younger, mum enrolled me for piano class which I hate but have now regretted I quit at grade 3. I wanted to learn guitar and drum but was sent for piano lessons. After quiting piano at grade 3, with some musical knowledge taken there, I picked up the guitar myself through youtube tutorials. I didn't have a guitar at that time and I didn't ask for one from my parents. I prayed about it and I found an abandoned guitar at my old church premises. From there I started my first song ever, 'Robbie Williams - Better Man'.

Loving to listen to good music, I practiced 'air drumming' since a drum kit is quite expensive and I thought it was uneccessary to have a drum set at home. The neighbours would be all over my family. Through the years of air drumming before I sleep, it took me a day to learn the drum basics when I was needed to fill in the worship team in church. At that time, I was playing the bass for the worship team.

Oh and I play the trumpet too, was part of a brass band during my high school years.

 

I broke my skull before

I was very young and just started to learn to walk. I was also learning how to go down the stairs at home. I have quite a long stretch of stairs to the first floor of my house and as I was slowly inching down to get to the kitchen. For food of course, my sister accidentally bumped into me from behind and I went swirling from the top of the stairs and down the flight of stairs. Hit my head on an edged metal beam as my head fell in between two steps. CRAAAKKK!~ Wasn't the most pleasant feeling. Rushed to the hospital to get my brain juice intact. A few hours later, I was jumping about on my mum's bed.

I actually thought I was late for work just now!~

I was so tired I took a nap during dinnertime. Suddenly, my phone rang and I the first time I looked at was the clock on my phone. It says 9.47 and I was panicking because I was supposed to get into work at 9.00 every morning. I ran to the toilet, got dressed and sanity hit me. I went back to check the time, and it was 9.47pm. That is how much I value punctuality. I'm a guy who gets to an event 10 minutes earlier or half an hour earlier if I'm not familiar with the place.

I can say I'm quite disciplined at being punctual and I get ticked off when people are late. But I usually don't say. I always think that punctuality tells how much you 'treasure' that commitment to make it on time. Well, depending on the situation unless u had an accident of some sort then you're excused.
