Meme tagging

My friend Selvi has meme tagged me (<<--pls. see the meaning of meme from wikipedia on the link provided). She was tagged by Leila and now it is my turn to name seven random and/or weird facts about myself. I have been blogging for over two years now and this is also my first experience to be tagged. Honestly, it is not so easy to do this and it took a day or two to know what to write here.

Anyway, I was able to name seven of them:

1. I am a "crumb picker" whether it may be a bread, cookie, chips, small piece of chocolate, or rice, pasta, meat, etc. Whenever I see or step on any of these, I right away pick it up and throw them. I may do this many times during the day and I don't get tired!

2. I put salt on green mango (yes we have lots of sour green mangos back home), mandarin or orange (or "dalanghita" in Tagalog), and strawberry...yum!

3. I also put chocolate sprinkles (or "hagelslag" in Dutch) on top of cheese and bread. I think my Dutch family still wonders why I eat like this :-)!

4. One funny experience I had was that one shoe flew out of the stage while on a dance practice during my dance workshop college days. Good thing it wasn't the real break-a-leg performance yet.

5. When Maarten was new in the office - he was my coordinator at that time - a friend once teased me while we were driving together that next time he will see me riding in Maarten's car (meaning I'll be dating him and so on). True enough, I did not just ride in his car, but also married him!

6. I just LOVE arranging my daughter's wardrobe and buying her clothes. I feel like I am dressing up a doll!

7. When I was a child, my nick name was "meme" from my real name "Imelda". My sister baptized me later with a new name "Menchie" because "meme" didn't fit me anymore as I was approaching ladyhood. As far as I now, "Menchie" doesn't have a meaning. It's weird that this tagging is actually called 'meme' as well...!

This meme tagging entails tagging other friends of mine...So I would like to tag Ailsa, Martha, Sieni, Negeen, Edward, Maxwell Eblaghie and my new blogger friend Bev! But only if they feel like doing this...:-)!
