What mistake made in your youth do you most regret now?
I can't believe I've completely forgotten about this blog. I created this in 2007 and only posted thrice. But I'm back, and hopefully this time around it's for good. =DFor my first comeback post, I shall answer the question: What mistake made in your youth do you most regret now?
I think the one thing I regret the most during my childhood is my neglect for activities outside of school. My parents wanted my sister and I to enroll in other classes, things like martial arts or swimming, piano lessons or even voice lessons...those kinds of things. I wasn't particularly social; I was shy and hated to be around strangers. The simple task of introducing oneself and making new friends has always been horrendously hard for me. I wanted the usual surroundings, the usual people.
...so I passed up all those chances. Whenever they would bring the topic up, I would quickly say no and that was the end of it. Thinking back, I wish I had taken even just one class. Be it a karate class or piano lessons, I would've had accomplished something beyond schoolbooks and report cards, and the world that I know would've been a whole lot bigger than what I know right now.

wildest dream jobs
1. Police. Being a police is exciting, and a small part of my usually rational self wants to try handling a gun, wants to try wearing the uniform, wants to try whatever it is police(wo)men do. It just is cool.2. Astronomer. I don't have enough guts to even dream of becoming an astronaut, but I'd like to be an astronomer. One of my favorite things to do is stargazing, and that is partly one of the enjoyable things an astronomer can do as a job--with pay. =)
3. Fashion model. I'd like to be one. Haha. But you have to be really skinny and really tall to pass for this kind of job. It just feels so...glamorous, in a way. And I'd like to see myself in the pages of Vogue, one day. Hehehe.
4. Pusher. And I mean drugs. Haha. It's weird, really, but there are times when I wonder why they do what they do, and why they find satisfaction in giving out drugs. But hey, this list is my wildest dream jobs, so...=)
5. Ballerina. I really, really want to become a ballerina. To have that grace, that elegance, those high jumps. Ballerinas, to me, have a wonderful, magical life. When a ballerina is on stage, you just can't help but be drawn to every move, to every turn, to every jump. Anyways, I don't have any chance of becoming a ballerina now, so it's now a part of this list.
6. Archaeologist. It seems intriguing and not so many people really are into this kind of job, so I'd want to give it a try. =D
7. CEO. Haha. Wildest dream jobs, remember?!

Sports Top Threes
Sports?1. Tennis. Because it's the "gentleman's game" and it's nice to watch the game. Very exciting.
2. Basketball. I love the sweat, the jerseys, the teams trying to outscore the other team. Whenever my dad watches NBA, I can't help but look and cheer my favored team.
3. Volleyball. I scream like a mad(wo)man whenever I watch VBall games. Like when the other team hits the ball and a player from my team digs? It's a thrilling game.
Vaguely Vivid
Due to an incessant need of getting to know myself better, I made this blog, Vaguely Vivid, and in this blog I shall post questions and queries that I myself will answer about myself.This is because of the fact that I like to know more about myself. My other blog, which comprises of my everyday thoughts and rants, is clouded by stuff that are not really important so I don't really see what I want to see from myself. Now, here it is, the blog for me to realize who I really am. =)
