20 Things You May Not Know About Me
Note: I wrote some of this ages ago, but I'm gonna leave it in because personality. The intro and questions 1 & 2 are the old ones.
*sigh*
*sigh*
As I type, I just sat down on my bean bag a few minutes ago and have lots of homework and a soccer game to go to.
I just don't feel like it though.
That's a problem I have a lot. Anywho, if you're wondering what this has to do with this post, well, I'm writing this post to get something done while at the same time relaxing.
And that's why you'll be learning 20 things about me that you may or may not have wanted to know. ;)
1. How tall are you?
5'4" And I'm gonna follow Sophia's lead and tell you that that's approximately 163 cm. In other words, short. #pride
2. Do you have a hidden talent? If so, what?
I'm guessing you mean something that most people don't know about me. Huh. OH. I can put my foot behind my head and also I'm pretty good at catching almost any kind of ball. ADDED: Good reflexes. What can I say? I was born with them. *wiggles eyebrows*
3. What is your biggest blog-related pet peeve?
I really don't like it when bloggers don't reply to comments on their posts or if the formatting is unprofessional on a blog. If there's lime green type on a black background or mis-aligned borders, it really throws me off.

4. What's your biggest non-blog-related pet peeve?
I hate it when people pity other people and it's the farthest thing from sympathy.

5. What is your favorite song?
-_- How can you ask things like this? Music literally saved my life during this last semester of college (which was my first) and it's really hard to pinpoint one song.
How about a list? *grins winningly*
Home to Mama by Cody Simpson & Justin Bieber
Blank Space by Taylor Swift
Coward by Hayden Calnin
Outside by Calvin Harris ft. Ellie Goulding
Aaaand I also got crazily into K-pop. Korean pop music for those of you who aren't familiar with that term :D So here's some K-pop.
Moonlight by Got7
Lovesick by B.A.P
Peter Pan by EXO
Beautiful Target by B1A4
I've come to learn that almost all K-pop groups' names are capitalized or acronyms or both. XD

6. What is your favorite Etsy shop that isn't yours?
This probably defies the average-blogger-type, buuuut I don't really do Etsy. It's just really pricey so I don't look even if I want to ;)
7. What is your favorite way to spend free time when you're not alone?
Watching movies and TV shows for sure. Or browsing stores like Ross and T.J. Maxx which are basically stores that re-sell a huge assortment of everything at lower prices than the original seller.
8. What is your favorite junk food?
Junk food is awesome. I refuse to think of chocolate as junk food (because it's not obviously) so I would say either Cheetos or sour cream & onion potato chips. Yes, they're as delicious as they sound.

9. Do you have a pet or pets? If so, what kind, and what are their names?
I do have a pet! A gorgeous puppy (not really...she's actually four years old) called Kim. She's an amazing mix of we-don't-know-how-many breeds. I would put a picture on here but I don't think I have one handy. *le sigh*

10. What are your number one favorite nonfiction and fiction books?
This is unanswerable. I haven't read nonfiction in a looong time and there's no way I can pick a favorite fiction book. Sorry. You shouldn't ask these questions ;)

11. What is your favorite beauty product?
Um...hm...
I don't usually use make-up but when I do my favorite's probably mascara. I hate putting it on because I'm awful at it but I don't have long eyelashes so...

12. When were you last embarrassed? What happened?
OH. MY. GOSH.
Okay. So this is what happened. I am not a sports person. I reject exercise. Therefore, I know the game rules for like zero sports and I don't even watch sports on TV except for football (the American kind) sometimes.
I went to a whiffleball game with a friend at the beginning of the semester. I didn't want to. I was forced. Anyway, whiffleball is kind of like baseball except less hardcore and it was really casual cause kids were playing too, etc.
The first time I hit the ball I tried to run with the bat.
>.< I still cringe.
This is why you shouldn't make me play sports, people.

13. If you could only drink one beverage (besides water) what would it be?
Gatorade. That way I have many flavors. ;)

14. What's your favorite movie?
NO.
I loved How to Train Your Dragon 2. And Guardians of the Galaxy. Don't make me choose between those two, just don't.

15. What were you in high school: prom queen, nerd, cheerleader, jock, valedictorian, band geek, loner, artist, prep?
I was homeschooled all through high school so I have no idea whatsoever. If I had to guess, though, I'd say a combination of nerd, loner, and artist. Bam.

16. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
Oh gosh, I don't know. Arizona? Great Britain? Ireland? I feel like I need to see more of the world to decide on my favorite place. In the end, no place feels like home without my family.

17. PC or Mac?
PC. I'm just much more familiar with it. And compared to Mac it seems a lot more user-friendly to me. There aren't like five steps to take a screenshot.

18. Last romantic gesture from a crush, date, boy/girlfriend, spouse?

YAY you did it finally! Thank you - you're awesome too. :-)
ReplyDelete*blushes in embarrassment* YES. FINALLY. Aw thanks :)
DeleteHello, my little procrastinator. OMG, I'm a shortie compared to you! Haha.
ReplyDeleteBoth How to Train Your Dragon 1 & 2 are among my favorite movies. I watched the 2nd one at the cinema and it was AWESOME!
Nice post :P
Hehe, hiiiiii. Really?? I'm pretty short in my family. All of the guys are 6 ft or taller. >.<
DeleteI KNOW. I love both HTTYDs sooo much. The animation is amazing and, of course, I love dragons. Omg, I would've loved to see it at the theater! Did you cry? (Be honest ;))
Thanks, S.R. <3
Okay I admit it, I did cry for HTTYD 2. Aw I hated that Hiccup's dad died and that Toothless was forced to do it.
DeleteThanks again for the tag. Here's the link for my post:

I KNEW IT. It was sooo sad. The whole family had just gotten back together :(
DeleteYou're fast at this. :))
Well, I'm even one centimetre smaller than you (German girl who doesn't get what 5'4 actually means) or maybe just your size if that number isn't exact.
ReplyDeleteWhat are Cheetos?
I think that How to train your dragon 1 was way better than the second and it didn't need the second. It destroys some small things of the first... although I'd love to watch a remake of it in thirty years or so... ;-)
5' 4 means 5 feet and 4 inches :D
DeleteI should have posted the photo of cheetos that I thought about putting on here! Cheetos are a snack food...they're very cheesy but their texture is hard to explain. They're crunchy but they also melt in your mouth.
Haha agree to disagree ;) I love both of the movies but I definitely think a third one might be pushing it.
Okay, then this sounds like Cheetos are something good. I LOVE Cheese! Maybe I should look if I can get there aroun here too!
DeleteMaybe... I think the second one still carries the message of the first one a bit, but I didn't like the animation, how it was too different from the first (I miss the simpleness of Hiccups old Dragon equipment) and it was a too huge change from the first to the second. It was like too much...
Cheetos are delicious :)
DeleteI can definitely see your point. Lots of things changed but I guess my favorite part and the reason why I liked HTTYD2 so much was because we got to come back and see how the characters had changed and grown. :)
Maybe it's also about the landscapes partly didn't look as natural as in the first movie and some flaws in the plot... probably.
DeleteI'll still watch any movie to additionally come up, but it's like with any other series: The first one is (almost) always the best and in every other you see things you feel a bit uneasy about.
That's very true :)
DeleteSkylar - I did it. I FINALLY EFFING DID IT. AFTER ALMOST FIVE FREAKING MONTHS. Here's the link: http://spraypaintedtunnels.blogspot.in/2015/04/20-things-you-may-not-know-about-me.html
ReplyDeleteSpoiler Alert: Many of my answers sort of creepily echo yours. We're similar in more ways than I thought.
Also, *that's* what you call embarrassment? Wait till you read mine.
YAY. I LOVED YOUR POST AS ALWAYS.
DeleteDude. That's awesome. *high five*
Omg, I would never be able to be okay with that kind of embarrassing memory. You are so strong. But to be real, it was his fault that he was sitting there. ;)
