*******

I have a few habits, some are pretty annoying:

• Whenever I have locked my car, and after walking away (quite a distance, mind you) from the car park, a nagging feeling that keeps telling me that I haven't locked my car always tag along me.
• I always sit with my legs crossed.
• I always place my spoon and fork downwards after finishing a meal. I have yet come across a gentleman who does that, usually it's faced upwards.
• I key in the zone alphabet and number of the area I park my car in, in shopping malls under the SMS function.
• I write to myself when I'm extremely down or angry.
• I must have breakfast the moment I wake up. Can't function without breakfast, hehe.
• I like to chew on ice.
• I play with the straw with my mouth after finishing my drink during mamak sessions.
• Every night, I always sleep on my left first.
• I can't go by 3 days without a vigorous exercise.
• I can't stand messiness and hairs on the floor.
• I can't stand clogged sinks.
• I avoid chopsticks as much as possible, yea yea, call me a lousy Chinese all you want.
• I have never done reverse parking in my whole entire life.
• I speak English to both my brother and dad and Cantonese with mum. It's been like this eversince I was a kid. Would be awkward & weird to speak Canto with my dad and EVEN weirder with my bro.
• I still kiss my brother whenever I see him. He's 18 this year by the way.

And the latest entry to this list...

There's this sink in our new office which we utilize for washing our hands, mugs, etc and it is placed outside of the office. So everytime you need to wash something, you need to step out of the office and walk, say, about 1 metre to the sink.

So, what habit could Angie develop from a sink as such?

The sink needs to be shut tight. Even more tighter than the usual taps I would say. So most of the time, whenever I walk past the sink, sounds of water dripping melodically can be heard. So what do I do?

• Do I ignore and walk away? In hope that someone else will turn it off?
• Do I pretend I didn't hear it?
• Or being a nice person I am, walk towards the sink and turn it off?

You guys know the answer. Yes, that's how pathetic and anal I am. Sometimes I tried ignoring it as I have walked quite a distance away from it but YET I would still make a U-Turn and walked all the way to the sink - just to turn it off!

So that's me.
