OK, I know, “bloggy tags” is as new to you as it is to me, but since I thought it’s fun, we’ll see how accepted this is :) Now, this is how you do it:

  • Do a written task or answer a question. Then tag 1-5 others to do as you did.
  • Tag your post with the cute little glowing “Bloggy tag” button to alert readers that you�re playing.
  • Link the button to the post of the person who tagged you, if you didn�t start the game.
  • Tell your readers to click the button to find out who came before you. It�s a surprise for them.

So, since I’m starting this game, I get to ask a question. And my question (it isn’t a question, but since I’m starting it, it is what I say it is, hahha) is:

Tell us about the nicknames you were called when you were younger.

When I was younger, about 9 - 12 years old, my Mum called me “Donald Duck”. Simply because I didn’t smile as often as I should. In fact, I was always not smiling and I took very little effort to smile at people whenever somebody talked to me, or whenever I talked to people. Now that I’m looking back at things, it could all due to my mal-aligned teeth. You know how girls are always very vain, and wouldn’t want to show the world her “short-comings”.

So yea, Donald Duck. Darn, I hate that nickname.

So when I grew up a little more, like when I was in secondary school (13 - 15 years old), I miraculously realized the importance of flashing a smile, to the kacang putih man, to the plumber who fixed our pipes, to the newspaper delivery man who climbed up to our third floor apartment everyday, to the teacher who gave me a “I think you need to work harder” look when I failed my Additional Math paper..

Anyway, to cut a long story short, my Mum doesn’t call me Donald Duck anymore. Because I smile a lot these days. And because I now have a set of almost-perfectly-aligned teeth :)

The end.

Now I get to tag a few persons, right? OK, I’m only going to tag the following THREE persons because I’m not sure whether the others are capable of following simple instructions, hahha..

  • Wuching - because he recently complained that he had nothing to blog about, heh!
  • Merv - because he’s my favourite sexy blogger
  • ColourfulWorld - because this young man is my newest fan! :)

Ei, even if I didn’t tag you, it doesn’t mean you can’t do this, OK? Anybody can do it, the more the merrier! :) Come on, tell me what your nickname was/were when you were younger! :)

And since I started this “thread”, I’m not linking anybody with the cute little glowing “Bloggy tag” button, but if you wanted to know more about the person who started the whole “Bloggy tag” thingy, click here.
