I did mine with 5 years increment and started with 1981 when I was 5 years old. It was fun… seeing how I evolved.

The 1981 photo was the one that AA was staring at because he said we looked so much alike when we were kids. I was a very shy kid and most of my photos has that shy look.

The 1986 and 1991 photos were taken with our pet poodle Macho.

The 1996 and 2001 photos… well, it was hard to find a solo picture of myself. I used to hate solo pictures.

2006… can you see my double chin? Gross isn’t it?! Haha! A little of that is gone already.

I’m tagging anyone who wants to see how you’ve evolved! I’ll edit this later to add Aggie’s tag link.

Got this tag from Pinky. Thanks!

Here are the simple rules: Link to the person that tagged you. Post the rules on your blog. Share six unimportant things/habits/quirks about your self. Tag six (6) random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs. Let them know that they are tagged by leaving comments in their blog. Let your tagger know when your entry is up.

1. My most favorite phrase when I’m inis or pikon “Bahala ka buong buhay mo!” Another one is for example you asked me to do something, I end it with “mag-isa mo!” e.g. “Mag birdwatching ka mag-isa mo!” or “Umalis ka mag-isa mo!” And sometimes when somebody asks me a pang-asar question, before I answer I take a deep breath and roll my eyes while exhaling hard.

2. I have about 10 jeans, 5 capri pants, a couple dozen of shirts that I haven’t worn yet. I didn’t buy these, most of the jeans were bought by my dad and the capris by my mom and the shirts were pasalubongs from the US of A. I like old clothes and I like my jeans worn. I don’t like newly washed jeans… so uncomfy for me. I remember in college, I have like about 4 or 5 used jeans hung at the back of my door. I use my jeans about three times before washing it, so those jeans go on rotation before going to the washer.

3. I like matching kubyertos when eating. As in partners dapat ang spoon and fork. Of course, that’s only when I’m home. Ayoko naman mag-inarte sa ibang bahay. Bad yon! Haha! When I’m at home, I couldn’t eat when my kubyertos are not partners… I have to ask the maid to change it.

4. I’m organized but makalat. Pwede ba yon? Haha! I want my stuff to be organized, too organized maybe, that’s why most of the time I don’t know where to begin oraganizing it. And my things end up cluttered on the floor in my room.

5. I love accesorizing… but unlike other girls, I don’t like girly stuff like pearls or gold or white gold jewelries. I like jewelries too but I like them plain. What I like more are unique bracelets, bangles, friendship bracelets made of beads, leather, metals, natural materials, etc (see the photo below). I started wearing anklets way back 1996 and used to wear about 3 or more. I sometimes wear only one piece of earring on my left ear. It’s a silver peace sign earring. And I sometimes wear a toering.

6. I’d love to have dreadlocks! And right now I’m so tempted to shave my head or have my hair cut really short.

I’m tagging everyone who reads this.

Here’s my result (my comments are in bold):

I’m a Wistful Soul 

About
You’re someone who doesn’t have much luck in the romance department. You’ve got such a lot of love to give but it keeps getting lost in transit. You probably think that it was about time that you had your share of romance. But if you were lucky in love, would you really be happy? Have you ever thought that maybe part of you actually enjoys pining for the one you love…? If you really want your fair share of love, perhaps you need to set your sights on a more realistic object of affection?  More realistic object of affection? Hmmmm… hindi ba realistic si AA? Haha! Actually, the more I think about it… he’s too good to be true.

Your Emotions
You are a deeply emotional person. So sometimes you can’t help feeling disappointed and frustrated when things don’t go your way in affairs of the heart. Loneliness is a real demon. Maybe you feel you deserve some more love in your life. Right now you may be feeling a bit fragile and disillusioned by love. But remember, there’s plenty more fish in the sea… You never know what’s waiting round the corner… Very true din, but now I try not to be too emotional. I just let things be… bahala na si Batman!
Perceptions
The world can be a very lonely place when love isn’t going the way you’d like. You’d like nothing more than just to feel completely natural with the one you love. It would be so special if you could sneak away with them and find a quiet place just the two of you. That would beat all the heartache you seem to put yourself through. Your choice of animal shows that you are a very loyal person. You like to look out for the one you love and have very strong instincts. Sabi nga ng lola, pag may ginusto ako kailangan makuha ko!

Aspirations
You’re a real romantic at heart. Sometimes you actually enjoy a spot of heart-ache. Pining for the one you love can be good for the soul and for the creative spirit! The physical side of love is essential to you. Touching really helps you to connect with the one you love. After all, you’re a caring soul. For you a healthy relationship is one where you lean on each other when the going gets tough. True love is about taking the rough with the smooth. After all, you’re in this together. Very true about touching… very touchy ako with friends. Maakbay, ma-hug, etc… and this one I can’t be with AA cause i don’t want him to misinterpret those friendly gestures as me taking advantage of our closeness. Kaya nga mahirap yang sinasabi niyang closeness na yan! Haha!

What Your Handwriting Says About You

You are a laid back person with rather low energy. You aren’t lazy… you *are* sensitive and empathetic. You are very extroverted and outgoing. You are loving, friendly, and supportive. However, you are also manipulative and controlling at times. You are balanced and grounded. You know how to get along well with others. You need a bit of space in your life, but you’re not a recluse. You expect people to give you a small amount of privacy, and you respect their privacy as well. You are conservative, old fashioned, and a little stubborn. You are resistant to change. You are a decent communicator. You eventually get your point across, but sometimes you leave things a bit ambiguous.

Most of things said here are correct except for “manipulative and controlling at times.” Really? Me?
