If it looks exactly the same as your dad's.
I was taking off my socks just now, and as I raised my left leg up, I hit my knee on the edge of my desk. I managed to hit the funny bone in my knee, whatever that is, one of those pressure points that cause extreme pain, and I basically just fell off my chair (as I only had one foot on the ground for stability), and collapsed on to the floor. I felt like the wind had been knocked out of me, and I couldn't even bring myself to shout or cuss. I banged by knee, and created a thud on the floor, and now I'm wondering how little things like that happen in our everyday life but never get mentioned due to the insignificance of it.
So I'm talking about it here, right now. Pain is funny. And thought-provoking.
So I volunteered to do this alphabet meme (link here). AV gave me the letter 'H' for Hong Kong, and I'm supposed to write about ten things that begin with the letter 'H' that carry significance to me.
This was incredibly easy for me, so thank you AV, for picking such a wonderful letter that I wouldn't think would suit me so well at first glance.
Humor - I used to use humor as my defense mechanism, but now, it really is just for entertainment purposes. I love being funny, telling jokes, laughing, and I love it when others can display some wit too. I'm not really a fan of particular comedians, though. They're intentionally being funny to earn money, and I feel it's too unnatural. Everybody knows the true comedians are our hilarious friends.
Hell - I have a fascination with Hell. Even though, I do not believe in the place, I love the concept of it, and the prose, poetry and art that has been produced because of such an ideological place astounds me. I've nearly finished writing a 4000-word essay on the depictions of Hell in literature. If anyone has time to do some reading, (especially those of you who are younger than me and should count themselves lucky to not be in the homework-packed graduating year,) I suggest you find an English translation of Dante Alighieri's Inferno and appreciate the intricacy with which he conceptualized Hell.
Hatred - Even though I have more than one hundred posts dedicated to this one emotion, I do not seriously hate anything or anyone. The word 'hate' is just used for dramatic effect, I'm sure we all know that by now.
Hamburgers - I love food, and in some cases, I just have to have the most basic or classic forms of food. My favorite hamburger would have to be a classic cheeseburger, where the buns are perfect, the meat is the right temperature and softness, and the cheese is melted just right.
Hot dogs - In other instances, I love it when there's a whole lot of flavors mushed into one. I regard a hot dog is best when it is adorned with every additional topping available. I once had one with ketchup, mustard, honey mustard, relish, mayonnaise, corn, melted Swiss cheese, onions, tartar sauce and sour cream. I'm telling you: oh. my. God. So delicious.
Hair - I used to have a very bad obsession with having clean hair. Do you know what agar is? It's basically this jelly-like substance that allows bacteria to grow. Our biology class had to put our nails, or hair, or saliva, something, into some agar, to see if there was any bacteria. My hair, of course, demonstrated no bacterial growth.
Hollywood - I want to be a writer for television and film one day, or perhaps a tabloid writer. Something in the entertainment industry there would delight me ever-so-much.
Hold 'em - I play online Texas Hold'em Poker quite frequently. I'm quite good at it.
Horror - I'm a horror fan, and I end up sweating by the end of horror films, not because I was scared out of my wits, but because I was laughing the whole time at the cheesy dialogue, the fake-looking ghosts, and the other people at the cinema who scream.
Humans - Humans never cease to amaze me, confuse me, delight me, surprise me or influence the way I think. Aren't we just so fascinating? I can't wait to study anthropology this fall.
If you want to play, just give a holler and I'll assign you with a letter. :)
