twentyfivethings
1. i really like fish (specifically sushi, swedish fish, goldfish crackers, salmon, aquariums and my pet fishes)
2. i suck at spelling. and i get really self conscious about it when i write on chalkboards.
3. i never watch tv on my own volition. i still don’t really know how to use the tv in my house. i do, however, really like watching the office, but i don’t think i’ve ever watched it when it has been actually showing on tv.
4. because of this, i’m really bad with pop culture references. i’m the last person you should ask who’s that person from? or.. have you seen the last episode of..?
5. i can remember faces like no other (to the point where i feel uncomfortable when i “meet” people multiple times), but i’m really bad with names.
6. one time my roommate, abby, told me that i was the person that utilizes the tortilla the most out of everyone she knows.
7. i can spend hours on the internet. currently my favorite thing to do is to look at wedding photographer blogs. few things photograph better than two people in love.
8. i secretly love reading girly magazines like glamour and cosmo. they are so delightfully brainless and materialistic. i mostly use plane flights as excuses to purchase them.
9. i have no idea what i’m going to be doing after i graduate, and it stresses me out more than anything ever has.
10. i am perpetually busy. it’s some sort of addiction.
11. i love my little sister. she’s the cutest. and i’m really protective of her. whenever i do fun things in la, i always think of her and want to take her to it with me the next time i go.
12. i used to have tons of pen pals in elementary/middle school. i still love getting snail mail. most of them were friends i randomly made when i traveled. freshmen year, i found out that two of my pen pals from boston were cousins of my now roommate of three years. it’s a small world.
13. i’m undeniably.. shamelessly in love. i never thought i would do a long distance relationship. in fact i broke up once because of it. he lives across the country, and i’m seeing him on the next friday the 13th. love makes you do lots of crazy things.
14. i have a really good memory of things that happened and what people said. and i think of them randomly. they play back in my head like a movie, and i can be sitting doing absolutely nothing and start laughing because i’ll think of something funny that happened.
15. i need alone time/quiet time. i like debriefing on my day or thoughts. i get irritable if i don’t get any.
16. most of my alone time goes to my blog. i’ve had one since the seventh grade. i hate it when people quote what i write in it. it’s definitely a personal blog.
17. i recently donated 10 inches of my hair to locks of love. i’ve been wanting to do it for years. my new haircut is the the first i’ve ever liked from day one.
18. i’m hoping to get out of southern california after i graduate. i’m a little too comfortable and a little too in love with this place.
19. i hate that i can’t cry at normal times when i’m supposed to be sad. but when people say something nice at just the right time, sometimes i start crying. i always feel bad because they probably think that they said the wrong thing, when it is just the opposite.
20. i can’t stop buying scarves, dresses, bikinis and cardigans.
21. i didn’t wear makeup until my freshmen year of college. now i think i look weird without any.
22. senior year of high school, i was president of my high school band. i never thought i was very good at the flute, but i mostly stayed because of my friends. i haven’t touched my flute since graduation.
23. i put my hair up in a “pouf” nearly everyday because i can’t stand it when my bangs split.
24. i hate that i get the asian glow when i drink. i think it’s gross, and i hate that it makes me look like i’ve had more to drink than i really have.
25. i used to think roses were so cliche, but i’ve changed. i’m a sucker for flowers (i buy them for myself), and i think it’s so cute when i see guys walking out of flower shops with bouquets of them.
