This picture was taken on my recent trip to Disneyland! In the lobby of the Grand Californian Hotel15 (potentially) Interesting facts about me: (in no particular order)
1. I'm blunt to the point it gets me in trouble from time to time. My friends usually say that I am awkwardly blunt but that it is refreshing because you always know exactly where you stand with me.
2. I used to be a picky eater. I was contemplating posting something along the lines of "I'd rather eat a cup of worms rather than...(what I thought was the most disgusting food ever) but then I realized I would rather eat just about anything than a cup of worms. In the last few years I have grown to be ok with sushi, asparagus, peppers and even almost enjoy onions. So point and case I'm not as picky as I thought.
3. One thing I have always used as a "unique" trait about myself. I can change my own oil. I know just as much and potentially more than all of my three brothers about cars, thanks to my dad. I love getting my hands dirty and the sense of accomplishment when the car runs again.
4. My roommate gave me this one: I'm a secretly nice person. This sounds stupid to say but I am an extremely independent person and hate to appear vulnerable. This comes off as intimidating to most people. But nonetheless I have the ability to have a soft heart and care for people. In fact once you crack the shell it's hard to get rid of me.
5. I can juggle. When I was in 5th grade I had a teacher...Mrs. Moon...maybe. But she had a set of juggling balls that she would let us practice with and I enjoyed it enough that I bought my own (probably my parents bought them) but I did own my own set and practiced often. In case your wondering I usually only juggle with round objects, I have yet to branched out to knives or anything. My career path has since changed from circus girl :)
6. My deepest passion is cooking. I have a tendency when I'm feeling any emotion strongly to cook. When my best friend recently left for her mission I was very sad as you can imagine and the only thing that would take my mind off of it was cooking. I had a wonderful week of meals as my friends can attest. If I had to only do one thing for the rest of my life it would be cooking.
7. I am the only girl in my family. I have three brothers. Two older than me and one younger. I have two sister-in-laws as well. I actually use this information quite often in my daily life. I have a friend that whenever I start wrestling her she says "three brothers, three brothers". Its really quite funny. Poor brothers, don't even realize how much I blame on them. When I moved away from home and in with 5 other girls I was in for a real reality check. I used the phrase "I grew up with all boys" to explain a lot of my actions and thought processes.
8. Along with growing up with all boys I learned how to work. I have had at least 2 jobs since I've moved away from home. I had 4 at one point. I am a manager at Cold Stone, this will be taking up the bulk of my time this summer. I hate being bored so what do I do? I work.
9. If you know me at all you would probably not guess this one. I have a stuffed animal that I go to sleep with. His name is Mr. George C. Cuddlepants. I got him on my recent trip to Disneyland at Build-A-Bear. My roommate gave him to me. All he wears are little white boxers, some may find that strange but he is a cutie.
10. I love to go on drives. Just like cooking I love to go on drives when I'm feeling any emotion strongly. Usually if I'm driving its because I'm angry. But the drive calms me and allows me to reflect on life a bit.
11. Surprises are one of my favorite things. And no, not receiving surprises but giving them! Recently, I got my roommate a new pair of shoes that she has been wanting since high school. I ordered them online and it felt like it took forever for them to get here! I ended up telling her the day I ordered them that I had a surprise coming for her...didn't help my cause...but it was still very exciting for me.
12. I love going on random adventures. I feel like I should define an adventure in my book. An adventure from Lolo's perspective: anything I do with people I enjoy being around that I was not planning on doing that day. I love doing things spur of the moment even if they are something as simple as going to get an slurpee or driving to the Pepperidge Farm plant to buy a 7 lb bag of goldfish.
13. I love to play basketball. I have been playing basketball since second grade. When I was younger than second grade I was in dance but the second I could get out of dance and in my shorts I was shootin' hoops. It's another one of my passions that I don't give near enough attention to. Note to self: Play basketball this summer. Self: "Noted"
14. I enjoy getting dressed up. Again, I might have to define dressed up in my book. I hate dresses so dresses are not in the realm of dressing up. I love doing my hair and make up and putting on some hot jeans and classy shirt and strutting my stuff. I don't do this very often but I do enjoy doing it. And if you know me this might come to you as a bit of a surprise.
15. Last but not least I love to drink water. I believe water has a very good impact on your health and diet. I could drink water all day. I do believe there are better tasting waters than others. I have gone on a Nikken kick for a while. Lost 5 lbs in one week. I choose water over pop at restaurants not only because of the price but because it just tastes better. I also believe that going from pop to water is the quickest, easiest and simplest way to cut calories out of your diet.
And thats me in 15 random facts. This was harder than I expected it to be so it took two days...oh well...I will do day 2 tomorrow. Chao for now!
