I don't read novels. I've only read like 5 novels, in my life (This does not include school books and novels one had to read to make book reports). I did read a lot of science encyclopedias when I was younger though.
Novels I've read in recent memory (included in the 5 I've read in my whole life... IIRC):
Halo: The Fall of Reich
... I forgot the rest
I tend not to try things out for myself. I'd usually ask someone else to go for it, or wait and observe someone else do something before I embark on a similar task. This says a lot about me, like I'm the type of person who wants to get the whole thing right the first time around, and/or try to learn as much about the task before embarking on it.
I can only down 2 beers before getting sleepy. I think of this as a defense mechanism from being drunk, as my sleepiness will prevent me from drinking more and act a little too happy.
I used to avoid hot sauce, but I've recently fallen for them, especially if there's a spiciness neutralizer near by (yogurt or milk). Pizza gets a big dash of hot sauce whenever I eat them now.
After the curry shortage due to Co-op closing down, I've recently experimented with Indian Foods and various curry dishes using one of those instant-indian food mixes (like the Curry roux) that were recently available in the supermarket. I'm now making Tikka Masala on a regular basis as well as Indian Butter Chicken
. I'll try to make a batch the next time we meet. I thought of serving the typical mac n' cheese, but I don't really like those things.
When I'm bored and not feeling like playing video games, I check a random page in Wikipedia, filling my brain with useless trivia.
My best subject in college was both macro, micro, and international economics. I aced all the tests except for Micro where our professor passed all the female students and failed all except for 1 male student (the one who passed was not me, I failed that subject because the professor didn't know how to teach at all, and he had the reputation of being a pervert so he passed all the girls in class). Next semester, same subject but different professor, I aced the subject.
I used to make a lot of model kits. There was also a time that I never used a hobby knife or a cutting tool to remove the parts from the trees, which resulted in poorly made models. My uncle pitied me so much that he taught me a crash course in model kit making one afternoon with the right tools (hobby knife and all, he assembles cars and motorbike models).
I suck at math. Big time.
I used to draw a lot, before entering my specialization in college. Now I can't seem to re-kindle my interest.
Sour cream and onion flavored chips are the best :3 Cheeseburgers rock! Root beer is awesome (extra points if it has ice cream on top)!
I used to weigh 210 lbs when I was 16, then dropped it steadily to 150 lbs by 19. I was a diet success story, that was until I entered the specialization course in our college where everyone got fat due to stress after graduating. Now I gained it back to 170 now that I'm 24.
EDIT: I never learned what a good summer vacation was.
