23 Things You Might Not Know About Me

TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY! I'll be 23 years old.. 2 years away from 1/4 of a century and I still refuse to floss my teeth. I thought I'd write a post listing some interesting and some not so interesting things about me... 23 things to be exact!

1. I'm 23 and I still refuse to floss my teeth.

2. I am completely incapable of whistling or snapping my fingers.

3. I have been confused for being Lebanese on many occasions. Only two people have guessed my nationality correct the first time: Italian. 

4. I use to be quite the tenor saxophone player.

5. I like to do art and always seem to be trying to draw Disney princesses.

6. I am not very good at drawing Disney princesses.



7. I once, very long ago, was amazed that I was born on my birthday. Talk about coincidence.

8. I love my scars, and no, there is no cool story to go along with them. I'm pretty sure they were from falling off a bike.

9. I once was a nun in a play... I think the director was greatly mistaken about a suitable role for me.

10. I use to hate my birthstone (pearl)

11. I now love pearls

12. I always over listen to my favorite song at the moment. I'm talking on repeat for a couple full days. Right now it is Dark Doo Wop by Ms Mr.

13. There is something extremely soothing and magical about listening to movie scores. I also match the movie score I'm listening to to the situation I'm in. For example, you can feel quite swashbuckler-y in the bathtub with Pirates of the Caribbean playing in the background.

14. I had the biggest crush on Robin Hood when I was little... and yes, I'm talking about the cartoon fox.

15. I use to be convinced that I could call Robin Hood whenever I wanted... and yes, still talking about this cartoon fox:



16. I have chosen to pursue a career in teaching.

17. I have chosen to have a backup career as a Document Control Clerk incase the above does not pan out.

18. I think Switzerland would be an incredible place to live and it is my number one travel choice.



19. I was left on a doorstep as a baby.... just kidding. I know what you thought, "Wow Vanessa! Finally something decently intriguing!" But I am adopted...seriously.

20. Depending on what we're eating for supper, I get overly excited about certain foods.

21. I have traveled to England, Ireland, France, Amsterdam, Australia and New Zeland... my favorite trip was a road trip down the West Coast. Read about the road trip here!

22. I honestly think I am not that interesting of a person which is why typing this post was super hard (that's what she said). I don't have much talent in any one thing, but feel happily mediocre at a bunch of things.

23. LAST ONE! I finish things 99% of the time
