Quirky Habits of Mine
OCTOBER 5, 2022
Hello to my passionate co-writers of this awesome site!! How you all doing. I was so busy today at work. I was all pressured and stress. Again, some people are inconsiderate and only thinking about themselves. They want me to do the impossible when we both know that our enemy is time. When you are hurrying time flies so fast. You cannot beat the deadline but you will still try. I able to do what is told, but after that I drain myself. I'm exhausted. At the end of the day I want yo just lie down in bed and sleep.
But I did not, I was busy with my notifications. This is juts the time that I am writing my own article. May I ask you guys, do you have quirky habits? I guess lots of people have that. I will share mine for today.
Touching my ear because it is cold
It is my quirky habit when I was still a baby according to my mother. When I was just 6 months old, my mother saw me touching my ear. It is either my right or left, but one thing is for sure I hold my ear because it feels cold.
When I was already a toddler, I still do it. Mostly when I am sleeping, I am touching my cold, soft ear and I try to doze off. I can sleep well if I am doing it.
Even when I grown as an adult. Even up to now, I do it. My sister told me that if someday I will be replaced, like those on the robots, she will watch out if I will do that habit. If I didn't, then I am replaced, lol. While writing this post I am touching my ear when I am thinking of some thoughts. This is really my thing eversince.
Closing and opening my bag, because I love the sound of a zipper
I thought I get over this quirky Habits of Mine, but just this afternoon, while resting before going home from work, I was opening and closing my bag at the office. I did it lot of times before I let go. Actually that is the reason why I come up with my topic today. I don't know what kind of satisfaction I get from it but the sound of the zipper of a bag makes me feel calm. It comforts me. The sound of closing the zipper in my jeans, slacks or other clothing doesn't hold the sound I love to hear. It is only the bag that gave me a sounding satisfaction.
I always have three ballpens everywhere, red, blue and black
I think I got this habit when I was still a student. I always have three color ballpens wherever I go. When I will go out with my friends and you check on my bag, there are ballpens inside and the colors are red, blue and black. Some people keep a ballpens inside a bag, but sometimes it is a black ball pen, but me, I will put three colors. Right now, I am into gel pen, so it is a three colors too. I don't know the explanation but before I kept one black ballpen inside my bag and I was thinking maybe it is sad there alone inside my bag, lol. You can laugh at me, go on, but I am honest here, I can feel the black ballpen is sad so I join it with blue and red. You can laugh at me!!
When I wake up, I will draw a square first before getting up
You can laugh at me again, but I have been like this ever since I became aware of the square shape. I am fond of drawing square when I was a baby and I was in school. When I don't listen want to listen to you but you are talking to me and I am writing something, for sure I will draw a square. I even made a graffiti of square when I was young, that even in my dreams the square shape is there. Once you wake me up, or even if I am just waking up, I will draw a square before getting up.
I always draw a Star
Wherever I am, at home or at office, when I am writing, before starting to write something, I will draw a star. I have lots of stars that drawn everywhere on my notes. So if you will see a square, you will also see a star. When I am talking over the phone and the conversation doesn't require jotting notes, I will have my notebook with me and I will start to draw a star. I think this is something to do with my hand that still wants to get busy doing something even it requires only to listen.
Am I weird with my quirky habits? I think there is someone weirder than me. I think I am still okay and normal, lol. It is just that, there are some things that I can't control and surely if I am not doing those things, I am replaced.
