One Month Get to Know Me

In honor of me posting for one month on my blog, I am posting a get to know me post with 30 facts for 30 days of blogging. I hope you enjoy!


  1. I have one brother who is seven years older than me.  He is getting married in 2017, so I am super excited to have a sister too!
  2. I have one dog. She lives at home with my parents.  We named her Peeka which is short for Pikachu.
  3. I have always lived in Florida.  I was born here, lived here my entire life, and go to college here.
  4. I grew up in a small town called Ocala but now currently live in Sarasota. I go to school about five minutes from the beach.
  5. I hate the beach.
  6. I do not like amusement parks, rollercoasters, or crowds. 
  7. My biggest fears, in this order: heights, tight spaces, the unknown, cluster of holes, and cockroaches.
  8. I do not pick favorites on anything.  I have chosen a favorite color at random so when people ask I am ready to answer quickly instead of having to explain why I don't have a favorite. Prussian Blue. 
  9. I have a fascination with communism.  I don't think it works at all, but I love to read about it.
  10. I also love anything Russian, Italian, German, or English, in that order.
  11. I have traveled all over the USA and been the 13 countries. I love to travel and would only do that if I could.
  12. I am Italian-American.  My grandfather came over from there and lived in New York.  Both of my parents are from New York but met each other in Florida.
  13. I love video games. Zelda is my favorite. I have a Nintendo 64, Game Cube, Wii, Xbox (yes the original), and a Super Nintendo.  
  14. I am a huge fan of anything Geeky. Marvel. Sherlock. Harry Potter. The Hunger Games. Narnia. Star Trek. Star Wars. LOTR. 
  15. My favorite TV shows genres are: crime, comedy, and action. My favorite Tv show is The Office.  This is the only favorite I will pick in life.
  16. I tried to watch Dr. Who and watched all of the ninth doctor.  When he switched I was too attached and could not continue knowing this would happen every few seasons.  One day I will try again.
  17. I do not cry in books, movies, or tv shows.  I have cried in two books in my life time. Both were Harry Potter: the Order of the Phoenix and the Deathly Hallows.  The 5th was because of a death. The 7th was because it was all ending.
  18. I prefer paper back to hard covers. I hate movie covers on books.  
  19. I have problems quitting books.  I am technically in the middle of about 20 books because I keep telling myself I will go back when really I hate the book and should just donate it.
  20. I am studying at Ringling College of Art and Design to become a Motion Designer. Don't know what that is? Look it up.  It is the future.
  21. I want the apocalypse to happen. I hate society.  I would make a good hermit.
  22. I don't watch any sports.  If forced I would choose baseball only because it reminds me of my dad. I hate football.
  23. I am an INTJ female.  The rarest type; I like it that way. I have some cool people in my type: Sherlock Holmes, Moriarty, Batman, Mr. Darcy, Gandalf, the Emperor, Magneto.
  24. I never like the third book in trilogies.  I feel like that isn't just me though...  Also I am tired of trilogies. Many of these YA books could be shrunk into 2 books. Please stop doing it for the money.
  25. I love to watercolor paint. My favorite thing to paint or draw is faces. I have been practicing for years and become really good at it. 
  26. I love to do my hair and makeup but never seem to do it.  I guess I love sleeping in more.
  27. I rode horses for 12 years.  I love it and am sad that going to college meant I had to stop.
  28. I am Catholic. Go to church every week.  Read the bible every night.  Psalms are some of my favorite readings. Psalm 38.
  29. I want a tattoo one day.  Right now I only have one piercing in my ear.  I am wanted to get a second but that would be it.
  30. I love space and mandalas.  Triangles are awesome.  


and as always,
Happy Reading
