25 BITS ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Engel's actually written 48 bits about himself. 24 from his account on facebook, and another 24 from his old blog. He's actually a semi-narcissist who likes himself more than anything else. This was actually from one of those tags that became a fad a few months ago. Engel thought as a third post, he'd like to reveal a few things about himself here...

1. At age of 8 Engel fell off a cliff in Cavite. The fall caused some scars on his face which fortunately disappeared as he grew older.
2. Engel's all time favorite perfume scent is Ralph Lauren's Polo Black.
3. Engel believes the ghost of his dead cousin often visits him in his room.
4. He has a niece who's in showbusiness. She's not a big star yet, but she has the looks and the attitude of a true diva. Probably when she grows up.
   
5. While he's not really updated with current and world events, Engel's pretty much informed in terms of pop culture.
6. At age 27, Engel still hasn't voted. Ergo, he doesn't complain about corruption in the country. He does not have the right to do so... yet.
7. He'd rather die than admit that he liked the John Lloyd and Sarah Geronimo films. He's now gasping for air... Urk..
8. Engel one time deliberately ate seafood (which he's allergic to) to be absent from work.
9. When Engel was little, he studied guitar, piano and flute playing. He did not retain any of the things he learned then now.
10. Only a few people call him Engel, but that is a part of his name. He'd rather not say now though. In bits and in time...
11. The last time he went to church on a Sunday was in the year 2004.
12. He often wonders why extras on Philippine television shows often wear make up even if they're just eating in a cafeteria.
13. Engel likes to listen to women talking girly stuff (and by girly stuff, he means the naughty stuff).
14. Engel is close to opening a twitter account. But he promised himself that Twitter is the only popular crap he'd never join.
15. In facebook, except for the ABS-CBN news reporters/anchors, he knows every last one of his FB friends.
16. Engel believes in destiny. Soulmates. Love at first sight. That's why he's still single. He knows the wait will be worth it. Yeah, he got that from a text quote.
17. It took Engel 8 attempts to see Love Actually. He now finds it one of the most delightful surprises in filmmaking. It's cheesy, but he likes it.
18. In terms of handwriting, Engel has the smallest in the world in his opinion.
    
19. Engel is 70/30. He'll write about it, one of these days.
20. If ever he gets married (and that's a big if), he already decided what names he will give his children.
21. Embarassing, but he cried while watching Marley and Me. He gets so emotional whenever animals get hurt in movies. He almost cried while watching Bolt (of all films!!!).
22. Rehabilitated, Engel was once addicted to Restaurant City, and Pet Society in Facebook.
    
23. He hates eating apples and any hard fruits because he has small teeth. And it hurts biting into an apple or any fruit like that.
24. Engel is not rich, but he buys gadgets that sometimes he does not need.
25. While watching SNN, Engel wonders what's with the nation's interest in anything Kris Aquino?

So there you go, 25 bits about Engel.
