A Little Introduction





Hello! And welcome to my blog!

This blog has been an idea in the making for several years now. However; being the
procrastinator that I am, it hasn't been brought to life until now.
For my first post I have decided to introduce myself, as a way of breaking the ice, and providing a sample of what you might expect to see in this blog in the future.


Describing oneself is always a tricky business. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy talking about
myself as much as the next person( let's face reality, who doesn't like a little "it is all
about me " moment every now and then), but thinking of what to say about myself took me
a while, and I finally decided to make the task a little bit easier by making a list and mentioning ten random,
oh-so-interesting facts about me.
So here we go:

1) I am addicted to Reality Television. Ever since MTV aired Laguna Beach in 2006, and
my life was never the same again. You can say it is my guilty pleasure, and of course,
the trashier the better ( something along the lines of Jersey Shore and Geordie Shore).

2) I have the attention span of a gold fish. Therefore, having lists is an integral daily
survival tool of mine.

3) I am the most pessimist, cynical person you could possibly meet ever.
 Imagine someone asking the rhetorical question:" can this day get any worse?", now imagine me popping in the background  listing all the possible worse things that could actually happen (if only I can do this for a living). However; I have recently made a conscious decision to let go of my old destructive, habits and try become a more positive, optimistic person. Because leading a life of negativity proved to be a

difficult and not enjoyable way of living.

4) I may not seem like the brightest bulb in the room, but you ought to know that I have two
bachelor degrees ( in English Literature, and Marketing), one MSc degree in Marketing
and Strategy, and currently studying for my second masters in Management and
Organisational Analysis. All this and I am a young soul of less than 25 years.

5) I have an obsession with shoes. While shopping, I can resist the allure of clothes and
other vanity products, but not shoes. When I see a perfect pair of heels, a magnetic-like
force start pulling me towards it, and there is nothing I can do but cave in to the power.

6) I can't dance even if my life depended on it. Of course, my two naturally left feet never
stopped me from teaching random strangers how to Doggie, or most recently how to Gangnam Style. I am shameless.

7) I am a book worm. Reading is my favorite hobby, and not only because it does not
require any form of physical effort, but also because it takes me to magical and enchanted
places. I feel a great sense of accomplishment every time I finish reading a book and I add
it to my slowly-growing personal library (Yes, I am old school when it comes to books, I
buy actual, tangible ones).

8) I have an inclination towards the dramatic. Anything can be turned into a dramatic
scene starring me. But in my defense  how can we enjoy life without adding a little bit of salt and spice to it?

9) I cannot emphasize enough my love towards routines and schedules. I go into a state
of internal panic if I don't have a daily routine planned out. Don't get me wrong, I am a
daredevil, and love having a good time and trying new things. As long as they have been
penciled into my schedule.

10) Just in case you have not noticed, my favorite color is pink.

Hope I haven't scared you away yet.
Until next time....
xoxo
