Why I Never Want to be on the Amazing Race

Much as I enjoy both watching The Amazing Race (TAR) and The Amazing Race Asia (TARA), but I'll never try out for TARA, and here's why.

1. I'm not a camwhore, and no matter what reality show contestants say about how they "don't notice the cameras" after awhile, I think it's a bunch of bull shit.
2. I don't have face for TV or the radio.
   
3. I'm a lousy traveller.
   
4. I'm not a Type A personality and probably don't make great television.
   
5. I'm a physically unfit, tiny Asian chick who can't lug her backpack around without injury.
   
6. I laugh at the contestants too much over the years to not have that bite me in the ass in karma points. It's easier to heckle and scream at the TV in the comfort of one's own living room.
7. It's fun to munch on Doritos or Cheetos while watching. Just is.. until they do the eating challenges.
8. Even if I wanted to, I can't find (or think of) anyone to go on the race with.
   

But on the other hand...

1. I could drive a stick (manual transmission) if I had to - watching those moments on the show where the women can't drive a stick are freaking hilarious.
