OCTOBER 5, 2022Hello 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.
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.
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 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!!
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.
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.

It would be easy to locate or distinguish you even if you change your looks or will undergo a surgery , hahaha! yeah just like a robot who has weird mannerism. I am not sure if it has something to do with an Obssesive Compulsive disorder wherein you can't really go on with a task without doing something. Seeing some things unfix or can't help to do something , or making sure that you did certain things and you'll check it again or do it again repeatedly gives you satisfaction or else it bothers you if you did'nt do it. hehe! All are signs.
Yes definitely that is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I have that too like turning on and off of lights and sometimes I get back at our house just to check that.
Awww so you are aware that you have it, hahaha! I am a bit OC , organizing things and hate it kapag hindi maayos ang beddings or medyo hindi pantay ang doormat etc etc.. lol!
Those are funny quirky habits. I still imagine how cold your ear is that attract your touching attention 😂
It is always cold and soft and i love the coldness and softness of my ear sis hahaha
Hehe😅. You have some funny habits, my friend. But I also love the sound of a zipper. It sounds very interesting. Also, I love to draw stars on my body. I'm thinking of getting a tattoo soon and I will draw a star on my body.
Go with your tattoo my friend. It is a representation of yourself and it is an art.
Ako naman sis, I always tap my batok kapag kinakabahan ako hahaha. Tsaka ako hearts ang lagi kong dino-drawing , actually halos lahat ng notes ko may hearts haha
Diba, habit talaga natin yan mag drawing ng shapes eh. parang reflex ng kamay natin pag nagiisip or may kausap ganun
O diba, may kagaya ko din na pala gawa ng ganyan. Talagang habit na natin yan.
Quirky nga but I also do number two
hahaha, pag panget ang tunog ng isang zipper sis hindi ko ginagawa sa kanya., pero sa bag ko ngayon ang ganda ng tunog ng zipper
Napapaisip tuloy ako kung ano yung habit ko pero parang wala sis hehe. Pag ka gising ko kasi Tulala pa eh pero yung sayo makapag sulat kapa.

oo isa yan sa quirky habits nga, ako di ko yan kaya gawin natatakot ako hahaha
Hahaha baka masobrahan ba? na try ko din mag palobo ng laway gamit dila haha
Is it safe to say that the first two happens unconsciously when you're immersed in work or bored sometimes? As for me, I pick my hair. I like the of it coming off my scalp, real quirky innit?
I do that before, rolling my fingers around my hair, but now I have a very long hair I find it hard to do it now hahaha
Some circumstances change even the oldest habits don't they? 😂
Ung zipper sis ganyan din ako minsan
Diba, yun zipper. Napansin ko sarili ko sa zipper eh, at naalala ko na matagal ko na yun ginagawa hahaha
Ako naman sis I draw hearts. Pag me chance ako mag draw, heart talaga. Lol. Tas dati nung me earrings pa ako, lagi ako nag ka count ng backwards from 10 while nakahawak sa earrings ko. Kasi dati, yung mama ko lagi ako sinasabihan na ingatan ko yung earrings ko para di mawala. Haha. So habit ko na yun until di na ako nga eearrrings.
Omg, yun counting backwards while holding earrings ang quirky nga nun sis. hahaha.
Haha. Meron pa but im gonna write it na lang sa next article ko. Thanks for the idea.
Ako din sis gusto ko may blue, black at red yung ballpen ko. Yan talaga pinapabili ko ni mama noon nung elementary pa ako.
Oo sis dapat complete sila diba? Pero ngayon may nadagdag ako eh, kulay violet at green, pero di ko sila dinadala sa work at kahit saan man
Ganun ba sis, meron na pala ngayon violet at green sis. Ganda naman.
Drawing squares? Hmmm interesting! hehe
O diba parang addict lang ako, nag dadraw pa ko ng square bago bumangon sa kama hahahaha
