Things Bungi is which I'd like to be:
* Half-baked psychologist
* Social worker
* Cyclist (just so I'd feel less guilty about eating everything I love)
* Traveler (But only to the places I would like to go)
* Disciple (I have a problem focussing :p)
A lot of things fascinate me. Like Bungi said, I don't want to take up space on her blog either. I'll post one on fascinations on mine (then again, my whole blog is all about "It's funny how.." or "It's amazing how..").
The things I like to do doesn't involve coffee as much. I replace it with wine. Hahaha.

You should seriously think about the social worker bit, you know? And things are changing these days. Social work is becoming more and more professional. And the pay is also getting better. We shall continue to discuss this. I see your heart is in doing things that make a difference... You should think about this as well.
