Feeling like I should do a fun post to sort-of introduce myself to any new readers that might be checking out my blog for the first time! And for any longtime readers or family/friends just stopping by, these may be eye-opening NEW facts for you too 😉 Plus people really seem to love lists now-a-days (Hello every Buzzfeed article ever)…
In no particular order of importance:
1. I used to HATE drinking water. Even until I was 19 years old (can’t remember exactly when it changed) but now I almost can’t get enough of it. I barely drink anything else in the day…and I never thought I’d be this person but here we are.
2. I love everything that lights up. We are talking Electric Light Parade status of lights. I love all that exists within that parade. Let’s just say Disneyland at nighttime is my personal heaven.

3. I’m Multi-Ethnic (Half Mexican, Half White) and I really struggled with this in college. I still feel the tension of “not fitting in” but thankfully I’m a lot better now than I used to be with being comfortable in my own skin.
4. My favorite type of songs are angsty breakup songs. I love the angst of it all! Kelly Clarkson’s Since U Been Gone! Justin Timberlake’s Cry Me A River! No Doubt’s Don’t Speak! Adele’s Someone Like You! Bruno Mars’ Natalie. Ugh…all just so good and those are just the ones that came into my mind.
5. I’ve always wanted a surprise birthday party. But sadly never had one. *hint hint *
6. I’m (soon to be) 28 years old. And still living the single life. Party on Garth.
7. I absolutely LOVE talking about media and television. I love watching TV and then discussing the episodes/stories/seasons with friends. I hope to one day have a job where I get to analyze and discuss TV and actually get paid for it!
8. My all-time favorite show is Supernatural. I never used to have a favorite show because there was always something holding me back from committing to it (see this
post for more details) but now that I’ve seen the glory that is Supernatural, I know nothing will compare. Hands down best show that I recommend everyone watch.
9. I’m frighteningly good at arguing/defending myself in conversations. It’s part of my job but I think it’s also part of my DNA. I get it from my dad.
10. I don’t like sweet & salty things eaten together. I know, this one feels anticlimactic for me too as the last fact. But seriously! I don’t like the taste of salted caramel/chocolate or any other combo. I like sweet and I like salty just as long as they aren’t together.
Well, I hope you enjoyed this silly little update from yours truly…
Now it’s YOUR turn! In the comments below let me know a fun fact about you!
