50 Facts About Me
10:50 PMHey guys!
I was going to do my September favourites today, but I've had a lot of school work and I've been generally very tired and stressed out. However I didn't want to skip a day and since this is still a new blog I thought it'd be fun to do the '50 Facts About Me' tag. But don't worry, my favourites will be up on Tuesday.
- I was born in Rome
- But when I was nine and a half I moved to the Big Apple
- Last year I moved back to Rome after five wonderful years in America
- From my experience away I learned many things, including english. So I'm now fluent in two languages, italian and english.
- I also learned that New York City is my favourite city in the world. I love the fact that it's so busy and crowded, it motivates me to try and stand out and be the best version of me I can be.
- However I'm not satisfied with knowing two languages and I want to learn more. This year I'm planning on taking a German course
- I want to learn german because I want to (hopefully) spend my fourth year of high school abroad.
- So, in case you haven't noticed, I love discovering new places, new languages and new cultures. This means that I really want to travel when I'm older. Some of the places I most want to see are: India, Ireland, Scotland, any country in Africa, and Canada.
- Still related to traveling, I really want to go on a road trip/ hitch hiking holiday. Something about hitch hiking just really fascinates me, even though I know it can be dangerous and complicated/unexpected. I think that it creates a wonderful bond between you and the friends you travel with and it helps you to expect the best in people and trust strangers.
- I also really like camping and I've been going every year with my family since I was very small. We've done vary various types of camping, even some where the only bathroom is a small hole in the ground you have to dig yourself. Ew, I know.
- One of my favourite things to do when camping is sleep outside. My friends and I usually go sleep on the beach to watch the shooting stars. I love love love the beach.
- This also brings me to my next fact. I love shooting stars and also stars in general. I think they're really pretty and the fact that they seem so small but are so big is mind blowing. When I look at a clear starry night I kind of just feel at peace with the world, no matter how cheesy that sounds.
- However I hate the typical star symbol (☆) and the heart one ( ♥)
- Okay so from this tag so far I actually seem like an outdoorsy sporty person. I am not. I'm actually probably the least sporty and laziest person in the world!
- I also procrastinate wayyyyyyy too much.
- And swear wayyyyyy too much.
- And I'm extremely messy!
- Not to mention I'm a shopaholic, which isn't really good when you're a student and therefore don't have a job or money.
- I'm really into fashion and beauty, but I was actually one of the biggest tomboys ever when I was little!
- This is probably because I have an older brother who I used to adore...maybe a bit too much. When I was being potty trained I searched my belly button area for a willy and I was raged to not have one like my big brother! Hahaha that's embarrassing!
- To be honest though, I've always been a bit weird and for a long part of my childhood I wanted to be a hobo. I've always wanted pets and I was sure that hobos had the best dogs, therefore becoming a hobo to me meant having a cute dog. You can disagree but I still think that logic makes sense.
- I always really liked animals and when I was little I used to horse back ride. I absolutely loved it! However I had to quit when I moved to New York because finding a stable in the Big Apple is kind of hard. I haven't really properly ridden a horse since then and I'm too shy to start now, which is a shame.
- I've always had a hard time picking favourite things, so I don't really have a favourite animal. However I really like foxes and horses, especially drawings of them. I don't know why, but I think that they're the two prettiest animal when sketched.
- I've also never really had a lucky number. Well actually that's a lie. My lucky number is 4 but I don't actually know why.
- One favourite I can definitely pick: favourite candy bar. The Midnight Milkyway. No, not the regular milky way. The Midnight one. If you've never tried it, get a hold of it. It's the best thing in the world.
- ...I have a very big sweet tooth.
- I prefer chocolate to candy.
- And chocolate ice cream over vanilla any day. I honestly don't understand people who choose vanilla.
- Still on the subject of food, because food is life, I don't eat breakfast. People find this really weird but when it's too early in the morning I actually feel nauseous if I try to eat. I only eat breakfast if I wake up about after 10:30 am.
- Which means that when I don't have school I always eat breakfast because I'm not a morning person and 10:30 is like dawn for me.
- I'd always rather be cold than hot because I hate sweating and feeling sticky
- Also being cold means you have an excuse for cuddling up under a blanket. And the perfect thing to watch? Disney obviously! I absolutely love old disney classics but I also really like some of the new movies (like frozen and tangled)
- However my feet are always cold and I hate that!
- I also hate feet in general, any temperature.
- I also hate feeling as though I'm missing out on something and so I'm kind of scared of spending time alone instead of with friends.
- I'm also kind of scared of the dark, especially when I'm alone.
- And of roller coasters.
- In general I get scared extremely easily! Anything and everything makes me jump out of my skin!
- For this reason I never watch horror movies! "Oh you want to watch a horror movie? Go ahead I'll be in the other room enjoying some Disney classics..
- "...or maybe I'll read some John Green." It's true. I love John Green and I've read all his books at least once.
- I usually only read in summer which I hate because I actually really enjoy it. During the rest of the year I usually read only when it's pouring outside because I really like listening to rain from the inside. However I also kind of like being caught in the pouring rain outside.
- I'm a huge day dreamer. I constantly zone out during the day and get lost in my fantasies.
- I like to fantasise about my future sometimes. I have no clue what I want to be when I'm older, which scares me, but I know that someday I want to have a family. My favourite name for a baby girl would be Charlie.
- When it comes to real life, however, I like to think I'm a realist. I say 'like to think' instead of 'am' because I'm not really. There's some days when I'm a huge pessimist and others when I'm very positive. My goal is to find the balance between the two and see the world as it really is.
- I think the most important thing in the universe is true friendship, yes it's cliche but it's true and I would do anything for my friends.
- I've known my best friend since kindergarden and I still see her everyday and we're still super close even though we've lived on other sides of the world for five years.
- One day I really want at least one tattoo, but I don't know what I want or where I want it.
- I also want to learn to take good photos
- and improve my writing, so I can make this blog the best it can be.
- This isn't a fact it's actually just a thank you to anybody who has taken the time to read all of this. I don't have any followers or anything like that so if you, whoever you are, have read this,you've made my day.
