1) I didn’t wear skirts or dresses until I was 14 (unless I was forced to for special events)…. but then I completely switched and wore them all the time for a few years.
2) In conjunction with the fact above: I was a total tomboy when I was a kid and was a master tree-fort builder. The only barbie I had- I cut all her hair off.
3) I can’t handle touching chalk with my bare hands.
4) I have a guilty pleasure for supernatural teen literature (I say literature to make it sound more fancy but it’s not….. but I don’t care because I love it).
5) I totally look up to Anne of “Anne of Green Gables.” She looks for the positive in everything and brings out the best in people.
6) I’m terrified of sharks among other sea creatures but am a total fish myself so I still swim in the ocean but am mildly terrified the whole time. I STILL feel like a shark or the Ogopogo or some sea creature is rushing up to get me if I swim even in the LAKE alone. I make sure there is someone else me so the odds are 50/50. hahaha.
7) I’m pretty spiritual but rarely bring it up.
8 ) I speak some Italian and German and really want to become fluent in Italian.
9) If someone asks me for my honest opinion (and they mean it), I always give it.
10) I have few celebrity crushes but the ones I do have, I get teased for (Ron Weasly (Rupert Grint and Seth Rogen for example).
11) My parents are my heros and the most amazing people I know. I thank my lucky stars daily for my family. My dad is an artist and my mom is a musician and we always had our artistic sides encouraged and never had pressure to become anything other than happy. I’m getting all mushy now!
12) Speaking of mushy, I cry super easily!! Whether it’s a sad commercial or a friend says or does something really sweet, I tear up at the drop of a hat.
13) I wasn’t planning on pursuing any kind of career until I was like 26! Photography definitely found me.
14) I’m very resourceful. I am also more observant than people know.
15) I have a really weird sneeze that people don’t know what to make of.
16) I hate peppers among many other foods. Pretty picky about food.
17) I believe everything happens for a good reason.
18) I have a tattoo… it’s a tiny dot (lol) that makes a triangle with two freckles I have. One of my best friends (a certain lovely German) and I tried to give ourselves tattoos in the tennis courts near my house when we were 16 and I only got as far as one tiny dot.
19) If I could live anywhere in the world it would be the Okanagan half of the year and Tuscany half of the year. Pretty stoked to at least have half of that!!
20) I don’t like to cook. I am really patient with a lot of things but cooking is not one of them! It took me a long time to admit that to myself because I really WANT to like to cook. haha.
21) I did grade 9 and 10 in one year through correspondence because my friends were all in the grade up and going to high school and I would have been left behind in middle school. So I caught up (and it was a loooot of work)! Once I put my mind to do something, I do it!
22) A couple people (including my sister) have scars from when I went through a pinching phase in elementary school. Sorry guys! :S
23) A kid once ran me over with his electric kid jeep when I was 6 (I was unscathed apart from some rubber tire marks). I later punched that boy and gave him a black eye (only time I’ve ever punched someone). We were back to being best buds a few days later.
24) I hear things wrong a lot. ie: “You like to wear donuts on your head??” … “You bought a vacuum for your pet giraffe?”
25) When I people-watch I like to make up silly backgrounds and stories for them in my head.
