35 on 35

- Wow. 35. I never thought I would turn 35. Never. Not in my wildest dream. Not that I thought I would die before I turn 35, that's just morbid. I just . . I don't know.
- I have never been to a concert. Spongebob, Disney On Ice and Barney shows don't count. I mean real concert.
- I'm blessed with great friends around me, in real life and online. I love you all!!
- I have been on some kind of diet since I was 13 I think? I have never been thin. Now I don't do diets anymore. I eat what I want in moderation and I try to balance it up with some walking/running/crawling whenever I can. Then I go and stand in line for another half dozen of salted caramel cupcakes. Ha!
- I love food so so much. ↑ Refer to 4.
- I applied to be on Prima Design Team three times and didn't get in. At that time I feel like my style is good for the company (long long long ago). Now I rarely use flowers or other Prima style embellishments on my layouts. So it's true. People change.
- I stay away from perfume department as much as I can. I get headaches, FAST!
- I drink too much coffee, most days. Trying to drink more water and I can assure you it's a struggle.
- If it's possible to fall in love with salt, I think I'm in love with kosher salt.
- I don't know how to do smoky eyes, doesn't matter how many youtube tutorials I watch. I always end up looking like I was in a bar fight two nights ago, or a weeping, sad panda. Choose one.
- I love cooking. What I hate is the washing up afterwards.
- I made and tasted guacamole for the first time this year. Yes. Believe it. This is the truth. LOVE it!
- I hate talking on the phone. I don't even answer the phone if the caller is not in my address book.
- I can watch shows like Law&Order SVU, Criminal Minds, CSIs etc - all.day.long.
- If I have to choose maybe three kind of food to eat for the rest of my life, I would probably pick potatoes, eggs and chili. (and oh.. kosher salt - but that's not food, right? lol)
- I wake up starving. Everyday. It's like I work out in my dreams or something like that. *sigh*
- I always have a stack of library books to read. Always fiction. I used to buy a lot of books, then realized we are running out of space - FAST. Now I borrow and only buy series that I really really love.
- I get sentimental when I see typewriters. If I have unlimited amount of money and space to store them, I would buy every single one. I used to fall asleep to the tap-tap-tap-tap-ding of my dad's typewriters. One of my favorite sound, that.
- I can't parallel park. You can laugh, I won't be offended. Haha.
- I met Sam online. Everyone had doubts when I told them we were gonna get married. But hey! we're still here, still together, still annoying the heck out of each other. :D
- I wanna learn to bellydance. The problem is, my belly is already jiggling even when I'm standing still. *sigh*
- I dream of living near the beach. One day, maybe. Near as in I open my back door and walk 15 steps to the beach.
- I used to have a pierced nose from the age of 16 to 21. I miss it.
- I'm kinda obsessed with books written by Sandra Brown nowadays. To the extent that, because I was in a hurry, I didn't realize that I borrowed two of the same book during my last library visit. Standard Operation Procedure - I go in, see her name on the spine, and I grab everything and check out. I used to do that with Danielle Steel, Charlaine Harris, Sylvia Day, Sophie Kinsella - to name a few.
- There are days that I go to bed at 7pm.
- I almost always have strawberries in my green smoothies. 97% of the time.
- I dance in public and embarrass my children. They will laugh and walk away, but Sam might join me. :D
- I can't dance - this is the truth. Which is why the children can't wait to get away from me the second I start. ↑ Refer to 27.
- I don't do horror movies, zombies and the likes. If you come at me, dressed like a zombie, I will hit you with whatever I have in my hand, then faint on the spot.
- I'm not a pet person. My life is full and busy trying to keep my children alive.
- I swear if one more person tells me I should be grateful for every second of my life because I get to not work and do nothing, shaking my booty at home, I'm so gonna slap him/her senseless!
- I try not to cry about everything I've done wrong, because I don't get enough fluids as it is already. ↑ Refer 8.
- I'm not somebody who wants to go back and visit my early 20s. I'm proud of who I am now. Far from perfect without a doubt, but much happier.
- I can't swim. And I'm afraid of huge amount of water, still.
- I feel 29. :) I may look 40, but i feel 29 and I'm sticking with that. :)
