Eight Random Facts

Tagged by Pei Ling.
1) Each player must post these rules first.
2) Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
3) People who are tagged need to write their own blog about eight things and post these rules.
4) At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
5) Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.
As requested, proudly (really?) presenting to you:

DAN'S EIGHT RANDOM FACTS
1. Dan is a hardcore fan of Chinese food. Although he has the luxury of eating different kinds of food in his multi-racial and multi-cultural country, he is perfectly fine in eating Chinese food 365 days a year.

2. Dan is a nocturnal creature. In spite of earnest and countless advices, pleas, encouragements, pressures and threats hurled at him from all levels of society to convert into an early sleeper, he is still in the struggling (endless?) process of conversion amidst an unrealistically demanding student life.

3. Dan is a tortoise when it comes to articulating thoughts in words. Inevitably, writing blog posts takes up one big chunk of his time. The only reason he is still hanging on to it is that it helps him to write faster and better. When will the tortoise become the hare?

4. Dan obviously speaks better Mandarin than English. Yet, he is more comfortable in writing in English and reading English literature. (Isn't he a confused soul?)

5. In spite of his Reformed tradition background, Dan is very amazed and interested in Eastern Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism and strives to unearth the treasures from these older traditions in enriching his own.

6. Dan is a 100% soup lover. ("Hey, do you always have to talk about food?")

7. Until now, Dan has yet to master the art of chopsticks holding. Not that he cannot eat food using chopsticks, just that it is not the orthodox way of holding.

8. Lastly but most importantly, Dan lives in a community of friends.
