Hey girl heeeeey! Did the interesting title reel you in today? Were you expecting to find the lovely ladies from the Facts of Life on this here blog? Well, sorry to burst your 70's balloon, but all you get today is little ol' me. Just for shits & giggles, here's a picture of the cast so you don't feel like you completely wasted your Google search of Facts of Life cast!
Oh Tootie, she was always my favorite! Well moving onto what the blog post is actually about. I saw a few days ago on Whitney's blog that she was going to have a one day link up {today so hurry up} presenting to all her readers the facts of her. She is giving everyone the opportunity to crank out a facts of me type post and link up with her. I highly suggest doing so because let's be realistic, she's pretty awesome and not to mention popular, so do as the popular blogs do! I jokes {about the doing as they do, not about her being awesome and popular}, but this was a really fun post to write about and I've noticed the posts I am the most real with you guys on, seem to have the most traffic.
At first I had no clue what I was going to write about, I am not creative in the least bit, so I turned to an old post I did, here for inspiration. Here is what would be said about me if you came to Nikki's Theme Park {look at Whitney's post for this to make sense}:
{} I am a complete girly girl, but I love to watch football or basketball with the guys and throw back a few beers.
{} I've never really been a liquor fan {gasp, I know}, it tastes pretty gross. I do drink it, but nowhere near how much I drank a few years ago in my prime. Nowadays I'm more of a white wine lover.
{} I love to dress up, even if it's just jeans, boots and a cute top. I never get the chance to wear cute stuff to work since I'm in scrubs all day long, so when I go out for drinks with friends I get extra dolled up.
{} I like to write things out before typing them up. This includes, but isn't limited to, blog posts {like this one}, papers, etc. I guess I'm old school when it comes to that, but I like having a rough draft so that when I type my mind doesn't wander and thoughts don't get confused.
{} I've only ever traveled to 1 country besides America and that is India. I talked about my trip there a few times on the blog, but if you want a bunch of pictures, go here!
{} I've never had a fairy tale romance, you know the ones you read about on fellow bloggers blogs, magazines, books, etc. I've felt like I've been in love a few times, but never the heart-flipping, body consuming love that we all aim for or is that just me.
{} That leads me to my next point, I'm a complete and utter hopeless romantic. I love everything about romance and can't wait to truly experience a lifetime romance. For now, I will live vicariously through Rom-com's.
{} I am also a Pinterest addict. I fully admit it and am comfortable with my admission of being an addict. I suppose it's better than being addicted to drugs or alcohol?!
{} I currently live in the beautiful city of Chicago; however, I truly believe I am meant to live on the east coast {even if it means living in New Jersey, the butthole of America, no offense to anyone who lives here, I actually love the state}.
{} Music is my drug. I love it all ranging from pop, top 40, country, r&b, rap, and 90's music has a special place in my heart!
{} I have way too many nail polishes for a normal person. Anytime I have family or friends over they just go to my stash, pick out a polish and I paint their nails for them. They like to think I'm really good, but I enjoy painting their nails!
{} When people give me compliments I never know how to respond, so I just get reeeeal awkward.

{} I swear meme's are based off my life, here are a couple examples, when I look at them I'm like hmm, these meme creators must have been peeking into my life and got these ideas because these are entirely too true!
Hope you all enjoyed touring through my life and although I could come up with another 1000, I think I'll spare you. Plus I'm hungry and I don't want to wait to get hangry.
Toodles lovers!
I know what you mean about getting all dolled up, I am in workout clothes everyday. Mostly yoga pants when the weather permits.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only Pinterest addict!!
Haha I love all of those memes.
I too love white wine but I've recently found a love with White Zinfandel. I can't seem to get enough.
ReplyDeleteI love your pins! The flirting one, the Pauly D one, the driving one all made me crack up. Those are so true. The song one is literally the story of my life and the sleep one I wish happened a lot more often.

I always do a nervous giggle when someone compliments me. In my head I think I'm saying Thank You, but it comes out as a laugh...every time.
ReplyDeleteLOVED getting to know more about you! What a great post :) SO many things I could agree with you on! The main one- writing EVERYTHING out before I type it. It probably slows down my productivity at work but I HAVE to do it. It's a compulsion.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post!
