Part of My World

I was tagged twice so it’s my turn to spit out my seven secrets.  You can thank Simple Subtle Style and Jen of Pretty in PDX. I wrote a personal post last month, but here I am again talking about my life.

These seven facts are kind of embarrassing but the fun part, right?

1. I like to sing super loud when I’m alone in the car but I refuse to sing in public. I’m an alto, so I can sing the boy songs easier than I can sing along with the girls.
2. I love books. I love the touch, feel, and smell of the printed word. My favorite place growing up was the library since it was a cheap and entertaining pastime. It wasn’t until I moved to LA that I stopped going to the library since I have to pay for parking! Books are free, but parking is expensive.
3. When I was young, my mom wanted to make me into a child model/actor. I even auditioned for a Goldfish commercial. Needless to say, I was not successful. But that’s probably when I started learning how to pose and be more comfortable around a camera. (Even when I was in that dorky awkward stage.)





4. From kindergarten until 5th grade, I wore the same size uniform. (A tall tale perhaps, but it’s how I remember it) I didn’t have a growth spurt until I was in 6th grade, but it wasn’t enough to make me super tall.
5. In college, I experimented with my hair a lot. The color changed every three months, but every year, I changed hairstyles. Throughout all this experimentation, my hair was still healthy with no split ends! Nowadays, I’m low maintenance with my natural hair color and a trim every 6 months or so.






6. I started to care more about clothes and fashion halfway through college. Before that, I wore a uniform to school and my mom or my younger sister picked out my outfits. They’re trendier than me so I looked pretty good for not having a say in my clothing choices.
7. I used to eat a lot and not just for my size. When I was visiting my friends in Boston, we went to Eagle’s Deli and we completed a food challenge there…finishing a 1 pound burger and 1 pound of fries. It doesn’t look like much, but boy does it fill you up! There’s tangible evidence and if you search hard enough, you can find our photo on the back wall of the establishment. (The food was decent, but I didn’t really have the opportunity to enjoy it.)

So now that you know a bit more about me, I’m passing it along:
