100 Facts About Me

1. I don't really have a butt at all. I mean, I do, but it's really flat.
2. My least favourite bit about myself are my legs. And my tummy. And I also don't like how hard it is for me to motivate myself to do stuff for school.
3. If I had to spend the rest of my life eating one food, I'd pick spaghetti the way my aunt makes it.
4. My mom had me at age 23. I don't plan on having children until I'm at least 25.
5. I want 2-3 kids, and I want at least one boy and one girl if I have three, but if I have two, then I want them to both be girls. There's just something really special about sisterhood.
6. I don't really think ahead. Like, I didn't think ahead when planning my party this weekend that it was Easter Weekend and that my mom would probably have silly ideas about me staying home and eating fish or something... I hope it somehow works out...
7. Old people really like me. And try to set me up with their grandsons a lot.
8. I have one younger sister. She's 14 (going on 15 in May)
9. She wears too much eye makeup. And listens to a lot of angry music.
10. My dad likes listening to the car radio at a barely audible level. It's REALLY annoying.
11. My mom repeats herself a lot. (She's a grade 2 teacher. I think she thinks we're 7)
12. My grandpa, the one in Serbia, buys ice cream bars for me and my sister.
13. And my other grandpa, the one in Brampton, gives us chocolate bars.
14. My grandma, the one in Serbia, watches Spanish soaps with me in the summertime. They run from 8-9pm, then I get ready to go out for the night. Then she tells me how pretty I am. Boosts my ego.
15. My other grandma, the one in Brampton, makes really good cake and panzerottos, and she lets me ride her bike when my cousins wanna go for bike rides. It's pretty happening... It has a basket in the front that you can carry stuff in. Sweet ride... No, I've never taken off of any sweet jumps on it.
16. Most of my friends don't make much sense. They say things like "Your mom" at the most inopportune moments. And they say things like "When everyone likes you, no one likes you" in weird attempts to be deep, but you're just like, WTF?
17. One of my friends once said "Timing is everything. It's like 'Location Location Location' in real estate. Except replace 'location' with 'timing'". WTF?
18. I took note of it in my journal because it made so little sense.
19. I still bring it up sometimes and make fun of her for it. I love the movie "Napoleon Dynamite".
20. My other friend, her accent changes when she talks to her parents on the phone. And one time, she did a demonstration of her knocking back drinks, and she made this really weird sound 'ugh ugh kugh'. Me and Pauly are yet to let that one go...
21. In case you're wondering, the friend that did that was Zeebs. Haha.
22. People tell me I'm mean all the time.
23. Most of my friends tell me that they found me intimidating when they first met me.

26. I couldn't be friends with sissies who couldn't take a mean (read: truthful) comment.
27. It's really important to me that the guy I marry has the same outlook as me on the important things - religion, political leaning, the upbringing of children, how to spend money, who does the chores (him). Stuff like that matters.
28. I refuse to marry a guy who won't cook, do dishes and laundry, and vacuum.
29. I want to see the world. But not the prairie provinces. I couldn't care less about wheat-fields.
30. I think everyone should read "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupery
31. My room is painted blue.
32. I love music. I took piano lessons for roughly nine years, and played the violin for roughly six. When I go visit the family in Brampton, my cousins play piano for us, and we all sing. Occasionally, my grandma and grandpa will come down, and grandpa will play the piano while grandma sings. My grandma is possibly one of the most talented people I've ever heard.
33. I met a smart, opinionated guy the other day. Those are hard to come by. You'll get opinionated stupid guys. And you'll get smart un-opinionated guys, but a combo is a hard find. So it was exciting to find one. I felt giddy for the rest of the day.

44. I like boys in boxers, not briefs.
45. I prefer witty guys who can keep me laughing and thinking. That's a definite prerequisite and can usually make up for other stuff they're missing.
46. I think it's hot when guys are gentlemen.
