I think it's fun to read random things about friends and other people as well, so I got inspired and figured I might as well contribute a little :P Here it goes.
1. I used to be a perfume-addict sort of. A few years ago, I got allergic to perfumes and I have been sadly forced to adapt and start using boring products without perfume instead, and my precious bottles of perfume are becoming dustier and dustier..... Even though I can't help myself from nice smelling things such as my Herbal Essences hair products or my heavenly smelling washing softener liquid from Silan.
2. I always wake up at least 2 hours before I have to leave the house. I love to take it easy in the morning with a warm and refreshing shower, watching the news, checking my stuff on the internet, eating a nice breakfast and have plenty of time to get ready and walk slowly to wherever I'm going. I really hate a stressy start of the day, then I will be in a bad mood for the whole day.
3. I'm absolutely deadly scared of insects, any kind. In the summertime, I always take a seat at the dinner table so that I can quickly escape if an unwelcome guest flies near me... (lol) And my electric insect racket is my best friend in the house.
4. I always try to stay neutral and see things from different perspectives, because if there is something that I've learnt it's that people of different cultures and backgrounds may view one particular thing from 2 completely opposite standing points.. So I always do my best to be aware of what I'm saying or doing, and also listen and try to understand people's point of view.
5. I'm really not interested in fashion. I simply like nice clothes, and if I see something I like, I'll get it. If there is nothing of my taste in the store, I'm going home empty-handed (or with home-decoration stuff or a plant instead, that's just me)
6. I like to wear different earrings every day and I often try on different pairs before making up my mind! It also happens that I change earrings throughout the day, I'd rather do that than walk around completely without any.
7. From when I was 13, I've spent countless hours at a computer and I'm quite handy when it comes to finding what I want on the internet and fixing up my computer with handy programs and settings. I don't know what ads or popups are and it really surprises me how many ads there are everywhere when I log onto other computers and what surprises me even more is that people just get along with them. Puh.
8. I've really inherited one of my grandmother's "green" hands (she was a florist) because I really love plants and flowers and it's a great hobby of mine to grow different plants. They are green, they are cute, they are alive and they grow. I find is really fascinating!
9. When I was younger, I had problems with ingrowing toenails and therefore I cannot wear shoes that press on my toes, not even the tiniest bit. Therefore, I hate buying shoes (I only like to buy open-toe summer shoes) and I avoid shoe-shopping if I can. I cannot and will never be able to wear girly shoes such as pumps. So I'm the happiest when I can wear open-toe summer shoes with colorful toenails!
10. My mp3 player is almost 10 years old, believe it or not. Got it for Christmas in 2001, 256 mb and the brand is "Jens of Sweden". It loads its internal battery via USB, holds about 30 - 40 songs, which is perfect for me because I never listen to more songs than that at a time anyway. It works perfectly, I use it almost every day. I never took part in the "pay a crazy amount of money for a design mp3 player" hype (the Ipod). I'm very happy with mine!
