Tagged - 5 facts about me

I have been tagged once again by play-play in the kitchen & Do What I Like (Florence). I have to list 5 facts about myself and then pass on the tag to 5 others.

5 facts about me:

1) I am a serious procrastinator. I won't get things done till the last minute when there's hardly any time left.

2) I hate to use makeup unless absolutely necessary.

3) I hate to clean the house if I don't have to.

4) I do love cooking, baking, washing dishes & doing laundry.

5) I was a neat freak but due to circumstances now (with a kid), I have slackened.

I would like to pass this tag on the the following -

1. More than words
2. Jottings of life
3. East Meets West
4. Karlsfoodie
5. Beachlover

Tagged - Before I was a mum

I got tagged by East Meets West Kitchen quite some time ago. Sorry it took so long. Well, here it goes.

This is what she wrote:
The rule to the e-mail is that, once you have been hit, you have to hit 5 pretty Moms, including the one who thought of you today & sent it to you. The idea is that if you get hit again, you will know you are really pretty!

So I thought lets just turn this into a tag instead. But that “hit” part won’t work very well in a tag. So instead of giving a “hit” to the one who tag you, you add your name at the bottom of the tagged persons list, and without bumping the person at the top or bumping anyone off and let the list grow. Hit 5 pretty mums on your list to let them know they are pretty!

So, I guess it's what you'd like to share about how life was before you became a mum. I just did the same amount on the list as her. Have fun ladies!

Before I was a mum;
I didn't have to compromise on sleep.

Before I was a mum;
I couldn't wait to be one.

Before I was a mum;
I travelled quite a bit.

Before I was a mum;
I didn't know what it was like to love unconditionally.

Before I was a mum;
I didn't cook as much as I do now.

Before I was a mum,
I was less messy as far as the house was concerned.

The 3-in-1 tag

I got tagged by Little Corner Of Mine for this 3-in-1 tag and she picked to do only one tag which is About Me and so did I. I do not know what the third tag is, and the second one was 'if you were an animal, what would you be'. Hehehe.... I thought this one was easy

1. A movie that made you laugh.
There's Something about Mary.

2. A book that made you cry.
"Since I was a Princess" by Jacqueline Pascarl, the sequel to "Once I was a Princess". It is a very sad autobiography of an Australian lady who was married to a Malaysian Prince and how he kidnapped the children, and her fight to get them back. It was a journey that lasted 14years. What made me cry was when she was eventually reunited with them. Very moving story of her struggles and strength as a mother.

3. A Best Friend.
I have more than a few. There's Karen, Marisa, Gaye, Vevita, etc etc.

4. A favourite childhood memory.
There are more than a few - having fun in Katong Park with all my cousins; Christmas Eves when we would stay over at an aunt's and we would all hang up our stockings to find them filled when we wake in the morning; the National Day parades where the contingents would march through the entire stretch of Nicholl Highway from the Padang, and they would march past our windows, followed by the floats at night. Unforgettable.

5. Your favourite animal.
Dogs

6. Your favourite food.
I don't think there is a single favourite food. I love FOOD full-stop.

7. An item of clothing you cannot do without.
My Jeans?

8. Something you collect.
Loads of Junk

9. Your favourite store to shop in.
Daiso. Hehe.

10.Your favourite flower.
Tulip.

I would like to pass this tag to:

The Singapore Housewife

Hut of Cranberry

Missed Young

Lekker!
