Here's my description of a god in my universe, well at least in my own.
1. HE IS ASIAN.
Mario Maurer (Thai Actor)
I rarely fall for the "western" looking guy, (well maybe except for Ed Westwick) and I always prefer the Asian look (even in women). You can trace this down back in my childhood: my first crush was a Japanese neighbor. I wasn't even studying back then (I think?) and I really like this guy living across the street. My parents even have to call him once just so I would be able to take a picture with him (this sucks I know).
I am an avid fan of Asian stuff: culture, music, drama, food, etc. Yes I love places outside Asia especially in Europe but there's this feeling of belonging in Asian culture that makes me want to know about it more. FACT: I took around 20+ units of Asian related subjects in the university (including Philippine related subjects)
I preferred to watch MTV Asian Music Awards than the American version of it before. I got to know Rain and SE7EN before everyone else did (yes, confident).
2. HE SINGS
Not the professional type, but you know, as long as the effort is there, that's A+. I just need someone who will willingly sing some stupid song if I ask him to (because I sing stupid songs too). But of course, if one can sing wonderfully, that's bonus points!
3. HE DANCES
Not the professional level as well. I would honestly go for a crazy dancer. What's a crazy dancer? Here:
If the guy has the guys, that's A+
4. HE PLAYS AT LEAST ONE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT
If he sings well, then he's exempted. Don't you just like someone who'd play a musical piece for you while on a date? Any musical instrument will do, but I seriously go crazy over violinists, drummers and pianists. FACT: All of my past crushes know how to play a musical instrument, and most are drummers. :)
5. HE IS AN ARTIST
An artist in a sense that he may be a photographer, a painter or someone who could draw people and not just stick figures. I just want someone who could perfectly draw my face and send it as a gift to me on my birthday. :)

6. HE HAS RESPECT FOR HIS / MY FAMILY
If you're someone who doesn't mind what your parents tell you, then get the fuck out off my life. As they say, men who treat their mothers well would most likely treat their girlfriends / wives the same way too. He must not keep our relationship hidden, especially to his parents.
7. HE HAS A SENSE OF HUMOR
BORING MAN = FAIL
Do I even need to explain this?
8. HE LOVES ADVENTURES / NATURE
In Zambales
He must agree that the moon is the most beautiful thing during the night, walking by the seashore is a worthwhile thing to do and mountains are divine. He should be someone who enjoys a 14 hour trip.
9. HE LOVES ALL GENRES OF MUSIC
From Classical to Metal Rock, he must endure my extreme listening capacity. My playlist is a smorgasbord of songs from different genres, ages and cultures. (I have Muslim songs, and I'm not Muslim)
If he likes East Asian music (Korean, Japanese), that's A+.
10. HE IS SMART
Not intelligent, just smart. I don't need a nerdy guy. I just need someone who has his own opinions about different things and issues. Again,
BORING MAN = FAIL
11. HE LIKES KIDS AND CUTE THINGS
Yes to father figure!
11. HE WEARS GLASSES
Yes to father figure!
11. HE WEARS GLASSES
Hihi. Kyouyaaaaa.
Yes people, I fall for the nerdy-looking guy (READ: Looking). I don't know, it makes people look smart (ugh, stereotypes). FACT: My ex-boyfriend used to wear glasses.
So far, those are the things I usually look for in someone, but that doesn't mean one has to have all. I believe in standards, but not in its execution. However, finding your standards takes time. It takes experience to weigh it.
This is the man from my Mars, who's yours?
