EDIT: Back, found this very interesting stuff on Reethinking Life followed the link from The Gil Mind.
7 things that used to scare me (btw, some of them still scare me):
- sound of the power saw (chainsaw) - my number one fear. we used to live near a lumber owned land (Bay, Laguna), the sound of the chainsaw will cause me to climb the table or hide in any other area where i feel i'd be safe (there was an incident wherein i tried to climb my father's back!).
- aswang/manananggal/freddy kreuger/jason voorhees/ - all sorts of fictional monsters, especially the "cha bun kwa" (w/c was actually the name of a lion in an old reader's digest issue) and the "sipay" (they kidnap young children, or so my parents say).
- wells and deep, dark holes on the ground.
- darkness (dark places)
- failure
- humiliation
- certain kinds of people.
7 things that scare me now:
- failure
- losing my right hand (aka my drawing hand)
- not being able to transform my thoughts into artworks (there are times when my creative juices run dry - i get intensely scared and frustrated)
- getting very horrible injuries.
- being bogged down by chronic depression/obssessive tendencies.
- losing my mind.
- not knowing my purpose
- books
- sketch pads (all sorts of drawing paper), pencils, ink
- video games (i'm a playstation addict - especially survival-horror and rpgs)
- food
- psychology, crime, the paranormal
- witty jokes
- music (can go from rock to classical)
- I like spending a great deal of my time alone (especially when i'm working on something).
- I'm often thought of as someone aloof, inconsiderate and even self-centered (i forget birthdays, forget to call or text my friends, and even forget to apologize etc.) But I bear no ill intentions, things just happen to slip from my mind. heh.
- I like eating "viscera" or "entrails" (excluding human ones!) - I especially prefer the heart, brains and lungs.
- I suffer from mild to severe mood swings and chronic absent-mindedness -here but not here-.
- I hate overwhelming odours (perfumes, smoke) - although I happen to like the smell of gasoline and rugby! O_o
- I like to read.
- I like to drink vinegar (this i don't know why!)

7 things i plan to do before i die (seems too early for that): because according to www.deathclock.com i'm set to hit the grave on 2056. hehehe!
- paint and draw (as many as i possibly can!) or illustrate a book.
- actually finish a story (i've had lots of ideas but i run out of steam before i could actually come down to writing it! or i finish a couple of chapters but suddenly suffer from writer's block!) or publish a comic book.
- visit transylvania, alcatraz, auschwitz (and all the nazi camps all over europe) and the holocaust memorial.
- stabilize the family finances.
- build a cabin/house on a remote, mountainous area. (this idea i had since i was a child - never lost it's appeal)
- work on DreamWorks, Lucas Digital or Squaresoft (character designer, illustrator or even matte painter)

- sit still for long (i'll stamp my feet and drum my fingers)
- apologize (?) well, not really but it takes a great deal before i can, even if i'm the one who's wrong. but i'm working on it!
