I was tagged again!

I was tagged yesterday by Melissa, the leader of our Blogging for Fun group. I love to do tags occasionally because it gives me an easy topic to write about, but this one is not easy as I need to reveal a couple of things about myself hahaha.

Here are the rules:

1. Link to the person or persons who tagged you.
2. Post the rules on your blog.
3. Write six random and/or revealing things about yourself.
4. Tag six people at the end of your post and link to them.
5. Let each person know they’ve been tagged and leave a comment on their blog
6. Let the tagger know when your post entry is up on your site.

So here are a couple of revealing things about myself:

1. My real name is not Leomar. It is only my pseudonym. It is a combination of my Zodiac sign and my nickname. I started using this pseudonym when I was in college. I also used the name when I was writing for magazines and comic scripts in the vernacular. I got the idea from my classmate in high school who first used this pseudonym. He was also born as a Leo and he also uses Mar as his nick name. So when we graduated from high school and we were no longer classmates, I took the liberty of using the pen name as my own.

2. Okay, this has been mentioned above. I used to write comic scripts and magazines in the Filipino language. My first short story was published in “Liwayway”, the oldest existing Filipino magazine in the Philippines, when I was still 16 years old. And believe it or not, I also wrote romance novels at one point and some were published. Now, you can laugh, hahaha.

3. My first job was as a warehouseman on a department store in Quezon City. I was still in college then but I needed to work to help in our family’s finances.

4. If you have been following this blog, you know that I’m working as a call center agent. So I’m being paid to talk but outside of my work, I don’t speak much. I’d rather listen to other people’s discussions. I am more of an observer and I don’t want to be the center of attention.

5. I’m the youngest of four children. I have two sisters and a brother. My mother was already on her early forties when she gave birth to me.

6. You can call my teenage life as boring but honestly, I never tried any illegal drugs during my teenage years. I don’t smoke either. I know, it’s dull but I just don’t get the hang of it.

Well that’s it. I hope I didn’t bore you. Now I have to pass this on to six other people.
