It's FRIDAY! Yay for short weeks, right?
Usually when I'm washing the dishes and tidying up the kitchen I watch YouTube videos to help pass them time. It somehow makes the whole tedious process of tidying up my kitchen bearable and, dear I say it, enjoyable. Many of the vloggers I watch have, at some point or another, done one of those TMI tags so I thought…might be fun to do one here! So here we go - 23 random questions you probably never would have thought to ask me answered…honestly. (Oh and that candle in the picture above? So good).
01. What are you wearing?
Pajamas and a light cotton robe.
02. Any tattoos?
Yes.
03. Quality you look for in a partner?
Open-minded. Intelligent. Respectful. Caring. Sense of adventure.
04. Favourite quote?
"It's never too late to become who you might have been." - George Elliot
"Nothing happens until you decide." - Oprah
"When someone shows you who they are believe them; the first time." - Maya Angelou
05. Favourite colour?
Black, midnight blue, gold…this watermelon shade (coincidentally the colours of the flowers in the photo above).
06. Favourite dessert?
A really good slice of strawberry cheesecake.
07. Love or career
Love?
08. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
10 minutes?
09. Turn off & turn on
Arrogance & intolerance / intelligence
10. Last thing that made you cry?
11. Fears
The older I get the more I fear death. Also, those real life "whodunit" tv shows…where they're trying to solve a real case…I can't watch those. Extreme heights.
12. Favourite beauty products?
NARS radiant creamy concealer.
13. Book you're currently reading?
The Underground Girls of Kabul
14. Last person you texted?
A friend while watching 'How To Get Away With Murder' - we "watch" it together!
15. Favourite food?
Noodles? Chicken? Eggs? Hakka Chilli Fish?
16. Place you want to visit?
Ethiopia, Uzbekistan, Morocco, Italy, Tanzania…the Middle East - when it's safe obviously
17. Favourite piece of jewelry
Some pieces I brought back from India…a necklace I bought in Egypt and always misplace
18. Last sport you played
Hockey with my 3-year-old niece for fun
19. Last song you sang
This. It was the last song I heard on the radio before I got out of my car. But that's more like "the last song I rapped" - so maybe this was the last song I sang.
20. Last time you hung out with someone?
Valentine's Day. Had a single ladies sushi dinner at one of my friend's house. Fun!
21. Bands you grew up with
I'm a child of the 90's so…TLC, Backstreet Boys, Boys II Men, No Doubt, N'Sync…I could go on and on...
22. Something you miss?
I kinda miss the time before social media…the constant temptation to "check-in" or "browse" is all to real. But then again, there's a lot that I love about social media. It's a double-edged sword for sure.
23. What are your dreams?
To be happy: fulfilled, satisfied, loved.
