One Hundred Sweet Things You Will Know About Me

Months ago I was lucky enough to have wonderful 20 followers, and I posted a list with twenty sweet things about me...well, at the same time I also commented back to a wonderful reader of mine... because she suggested I would do the same thing once I hit 100 followers. AND...it is time my friends!!!! It is time!!!  
*click here, for the 20 things about me*
And yes, I'm scared like never before...because I want to give out little hints, and not open up like crazy because where's the fun in that?! You would know so much then about me and forget me and my silly blog. :( So no. I am trying to make it easy, silly, but very real and very me.

♥  ♥  ♥

And dang...that took me quite some time...I bet people around me would easily point out things for me, but it's taken me a while to really dig deep and find some true facts about me...random at some point, but still...very me...and still not giving out too much. After all it would be boring if you knew everything about me. Just what I stated above...you'd know me and leave me. ;)

20. I always wanted to have a sister or a brother and constantly begged my mom for one. Her reply was it is impossible. My answer to this was why is is impossible?. She never answered. Today I know why. ;)
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
21. Stationery is an obsession of mine. I literally collect that stuff.

24. Traveling is a hobby of mine. I wish I could do this once a week though...haha!

43. I can be very talkative. Very!!! But, I can also be extremely shy and quiet...until I warm up and wow then there's no stopping me. ;-)
44. I love refills...wonder why they don't have that in Europe (at least where I am at).
45. My handwriting is kinda cute.
46. When I was little I used to stutter.
47. All my ex's are married today. Kinda freaks me out.

51. I dread funerals. Who doesn't?!
52. To me, my father doesn't exist anymore.
53. I adapt easily, in every city, country, language, etc etc

55. I still have a few pen pals.
56. Granny Smiths are my favorite apples.

59. Disneyland is a spot I love to go to once a month but obviously can't. ;)
60. I try to go to the movies once a week (even over here where it's so incredibly expensive).
    
    
    
    
    
61. Roadtrips are awesome. Wish I had friends over here that would think the same way.
62. In all honesty...I am a confused girl. Not sure why I stopped being determined and started being all so confused and blah!?!
63. White roses are my favorites, my second favorites would be white tulips.
    Weird? Maybe. Maybe not.
64. I don't drive at all. I rather walk or take public transportation.
65. I miss driving, yes, but I really don't see the point in it over here.
66. As a teenager I loved the Kelly Family.
    Never heard of them? Good!!! Very good. You so didn't miss out.
67. Can't stand rap music. Although some of it is quite interesting.
68. Making lists like this is really really hard, even for a chatterbox like me.
69. An aunt of mine used to belong to one of the richest family in her country. I am not complaining. ;-)
70. Movies are my thing. I watch everything...literally. So if you want to go to a movie but your friends don't want to go because they think the movie's weird, or not their thing...I'm all yours...I go to every single kind...the weird kind, the funny, the stupid, the sad, the cute, the scary...whatever!!!! Bring the movies on!!!
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
71. I love currencies, and am so sad Europe lost most of its wonderful ones.
72. Since Switzerland is so expensive and has weird laws and regulations on what to sell in stores...Germany and sometimes France are my best options when it comes to shopping. They have brands we don't, and price wise they're so cheap I'm literally in heaven. OK, cheaper, not very cheap. I am not the only one though. Apparently it's a Swiss thing. ;)
    
73. My favorite month of the year is June. ♥ ♥
74. I don't like my voice.
75. I need to have a notebook/planner/agenda on my desk. So I can write down what I either did that day (sort of like a quick diary) or jot down how my future looks like (with possible lunch or dinner plans, or dates, or movie days or whatever). I'm not very well organized sometimes I admit that, but this has to happen and exist and needs to be next to my laptop and all. I go nuts if I don't find the right planner on time. 
76. I'm obsessed with chapstick. Any kind. Do have my favorite kind though but am always willing to try out new brands. ;)
77. Stuffed animals are cute, and yes, I still own a few. ;)
78. Big bags are my thing. I carry tons with me.
79. Pizza with onions and ground beef...yummy!!!!!
80. FarmVille on Facebook is my addiction...I can't give it up and I won't. At least for now.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
81. Summer time means allergy time...and that since I was a cute little four-year-old girl. All my fault. I shouldn't have put fresh grass into my nose. Ok, didn't put it there, I pushed it up there. LOL All true.
82. I'm a night owl. Usually don't go to bed before 1 or 2 am, unless I have to get up at 5 am.
83. My toe nails are always painted - in the spring and summer time. Winter...I let them rest.
84. I let people believe in whatever they want to believe in. As long as they stay true to themselves and understand my beliefs and opinions. I don't judge when it comes to that. I may have tons of questions and can't really see the point in certain things but that doesn't mean I don't like it or judge the person or discriminiate against anyone and anything there. After all you should know I'm very open-minded. ;) 
85. When I started college I wanted to study psychology. I don't regret the fact that I changed my major but I wonder what made me change my mind.
86. Quotes are pure inspiration to me. I may not always remember them or know who's responsible for such wonderful wisdom. But it's just great how much they can inspire me.
87. I won't leave the house without my tiny old but pink iPod. That may change once I get an iPhone but until then...
88. Taking bubble baths is my favorite way to relax. Add some Michael Buble or such...you get the picture
89. As a kid I used to have guinea pigs as pets. Don't have any pets now. I wish I had a puppy though.
90. I am not a US citizen. ;) Having family there and having lived there doesn't automatically make me one.
    Just saying...if you thought I was one... ;) Sorry!
    
    
    
    
91. Avocado, Strawberry, and Watermelon is a very good combination.
92. Summer's my favorite season of all.
93. I would love to meet the love of my life soon. Unless I already have and didn't notice.
94. My taste in music is diverse and may surprise some people.
95. I never had long hair, so now I'm trying to work on that and let it grow a bit more.
96. Red wine is my favorite; from California of course. And yes, for whoever didn't know...I drink wine. ;)
97. I think my face's ugly and all, therefore I think I'm not photogenic and hate pretty much all pictures with me in them. Hence, the lack of Selma pictures.
98. For unknown reasons I'm fascinated by the 1950s!
99. Friends are important to me. VERY important; no matter how far apart and how little we know each other...it's part of life, and friendship is always very precious.
100. I love my bloggie friends! I never thought I'd say this but consider yourself hugged and loved and appreciated for everything you've been doing, saying, thinking, posting, ya name it.

And if you're not satisfied yet, click HERE on a previous list about me...I tried not to repeat myself over and over again. Not as easy. I'm sure there's more to me but as I said it would be way too much and just not right to disclose it all. ;)

So, I can't believe I'm literally having 100 followers...not counting those that just read my blog because I told them too (haha!), or those that aren't officially following but still do follow. Does this make any sense? Maybe not. Doesn't matter. Thank you for reading my silly stuff, and thank you for showing me that life can be great...with and without such a great writing tool. :)

Have an amazing day!!!

xoxo

P.s. and yes, again...all pictures via we ♥ it!!! :D I'm secretly obsessed with that page.

And since I not only have 100 but 101 followers...

101.  I never leave the house without one of my bags filled with wet tissues, paper tissues, wallet, keys, cellphone, my handy "make up case" (with everything in there...from lotion, mirror, band-aid, aspirin, and everything else that may be needed at some point maybe - not just by me) and a water bottle. Depending on where I'm heading a book, my cute camera as well as my iPod are put in there too...big bags are important. Even for tiny me. ;)

Now I'm done!!! ;)
