Tag Memes and Viral Links
I don’t like to do too many of this because nobody likes to read a blog that’s full of memes. I’ll at least like to return the favour to the lovely folks out there who’ve been kind enough to link to me. I’m sorry if I’ve missed you out. It’s certainly not intentional. For those people who’re tagged, obviously you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to.
1) Face Behind the Blog
Nick tagged me for this. I think I’m supposed to post a picture of myself and provide some useless information.
Blog Title : About Every Little Thing
Description : Just a girl with a penchant for stick men drawings blogging about whatever interests her.
Why “About Every Little Thing”: Because I needed to pee really badly and so decided on the first title that came into my head.
Name : Lis
Country : Singapore
Occupation : Corporate drone
Email : abouteverything[at]gmail(dot)com
Birthday : Hello, a chick’s age is secret so you’ll just have to settle for “somewhere in April of a certain year”
Fav Color : Green (see green top and green handbag in self portrait above)
Fav Drink : Depends. Before 6pm or after? Tea if before (coffee is overrated) and liquer if after.
Fav Fruit : Strawberries (plus whipped cream and champagne and… mmmmmmm…)
Fav Dessert : Chocolate (the dark stuff. white chocolate is for pansies)
Hobbies : Not posting tag memes, thinking of the next prank to play on my unsuspecting colleagues, and the best ways to pretend to be productive at work. Drop me a note if you’ve any tips.
Some of the blogs that I know which put up picture(s) of me are : You think I’m gonna tell you so you can go snoop around those blogs? Yeah, right.
Come on, show yerself!

2) Geek Train

———- START COPYING HERE ———-
Geek Train - All aboard!
1 - Write a short paragraph at the beginning of your post and linkback to the blog(s) that put you on the list in the paragraph. You MUST do this. No-one plans on getting slapped for duplicate content any time soon, do they?
2 - Next, copy the list of originals below COMPLETELY and add it to your own blog. If you’d like a different keyword for your blog then change it, when you do your post, and it should pass to most blogs with that keyword, provided the train keeps on spreading.
3 - Take the adds from the blog that added you and place them in the “Originals” list.
4 - Add at least three new favourite blogs of yours to keep the train going, e-mail the blog owners (or comment on one of their posts) and insist that they post.

3) Link Luv
Thanks to Denny who showed me some link luv. I’ve no idea how to tell if someone’s using the DO FOLLOW plugin so I’m not adding anyone for this.
1.Write a short paragraph at the beginning of your post and link back to the blog that put you on the list in the paragraph. This isn’t a suggestion. You need to break up the duplicate content. Someone took the time to add you so the least you can do is give them an extra link back.
2. Copy the list of originals below COMPLETELY and add it to your blog. If you would like a different keyword for your blog then change it when you do your post and it should pass to most blogs with that keyword.
3. Take the adds from the blog that added you and place them in the “Originals” list.
4. Add at least 1 new blog that you KNOW is using the DO FOLLOW plugin to the list in the “My Adds” section. (Add no more than 5!) Let the people you’ve added know, so that they can keep the list going!

4) If I had a million dollars…
Andrew over at Everybody Loves Coupons just tagged me with If I had a million dollars…, so rather than start another post, I’ll just add to this one.
So what will I do if I’ve a million bucks? Easy. I’ll start my own stick men colony and use the remainder to feed my yarn addiction and build a yarn nest.
List of bloggers and how they’d spend the moolah:
1. SYH will spend for Family
2. Miche will give to the needy
3. Montessorimum will keepsake
4. Lovely Mummy will spend & save
5. MummyInVain will fully utilise
6. Babyfiona will buy house and open business
7. MonkeyWong will go for a long vacation
8. Emila Yusof will realise her dream
9. Mariuca will open a Perfume Gallery
10.Janice Ng will upgrade house and go for long vacation
11.Hin will blog to donate for charity
12.Bobo will invest in property and let her parents go on a holiday.
13. Brad will spend all of his money on foolish gadgets
14. Danielle will buy a cottage in the woods and never look back
15. Andrew will build the ultimate game room and have fun in the Hawaiian sun
16. Lis will build a stick men colony and a yarn nest.
Because I’m really curious how these folks will spend their moolah, I’m tagging the following bloggers:
Jason (spend it all on gorillas and sushi?)
Michael (getting a greet-and-meet with Tina Fey?)
Lisa (more chances to test all the hotel beds in the world?)
Geedos (another tour around the world?)
Geezus, this was a freakin’ pain in the ass to do. I can’t imagine why some people do this all the freakin’ time.
This must be my longest post ever in the history of my short, illustrious blogging career.

Blimey - that’s quite a post. It must have taken you ages to write!
It certainly took me ages to read it all! And all those colours - very psychedelic! :-)
Yes! Thank you for calling me a “SUPER HOT MOMMY!” That made my day!
*I just love your self portraits!*
Geedos, hell yeah, I won’t be doing something like this for quite a while!
Mel, anyone who has been to your blog or seen your pictures on flickr will agree!
Ten Ways to Appear More Productive in the Corporate Environment
That’s 100 kinds of awesome.
Hey Lis, NICE picture :)
Quite the babe, am I not? :D
Hey your blogging career may be short but it is certainly very illustrious so keep up the good work.
You’re well on your way to fame - especially as this must be one of the longest posts in history!
Cheers for the tag and thank goodness I only have to do the bottom bit!
Nicely done, Lis! And yeah, I’m fairly new to all this meme/tagging stuff too and frankly don’t know how people find the time to do so many. It’s exhausting ain’t it?
Oh and I may have to change my answer for the million dollars and instead buy a genetics lab to create the world’s largest cat (well cats, there should be 2 so they can play and fight together), to play with your insane amount of yarn.
I’m taking notes, but think I got a little lost. I’ll email ya if I need help ;-)
Every time you pass up an opportunity to post a picture of yourself my image of you gets even more outlandish. As of now, I’ve added talons, eight legs and a unicorn horn.
Geedos, can’t wait to see what you’ll do with your monopoly million bucks!
Andrew, you bet it is. I doubt I’ll be doing another one in the near future. Paws off my yarn!
Jason, you might not be too far off from the truth. So far I think I’ve 3 eyes, talons, 8 legs and a unicorn horn. Are we keeping score?
Okay! I finally got to this one! My answers are now posted!
