random facts about me.

1. Despite being Portuguese, I write my blog in English because my goal is not for people I know to read it. Only one of my friends knows about its existence and I feel more comfortable sharing these bits of my soul to strangers on the Internet. (I'd rather talk about stuff face to face than have people I know reading it on my blog)

2. I HAVE TO drive with my windows open. I love feeling the wind on my hair while I'm driving and it makes me feel suffocated to drive with my windows closed.

3. I LOVE peanut butter! It's my favourite comfort food.

4. I hate taking naps. When I was in kindergarten I was the only kid who didn't take a nap. Sleeping in the afternoon makes me feel queasy and takes away all my productivity.

5. When I eat any kind of pie, I open it up, eat the filling, and then the crust.

6. I really, REALLY like football! People never expect that from me, but I do. I watch most of Porto matches and it brings me a lot of joy and suffering!

7. I dislike wearing white pants, I think they look great on everyone else, but I don't like seeing myself in white pants and I feel like every time I wear them, they get dirty in a second.

8. There is a cat in my neighbourhood who pretty much spends most afternoons at my house. It's lovely for me because I love cats and I was never allowed to have pets. (His name is Nico)

9. It's VERY hard to get me drunk. I tell people I have an "iron liver" because when I drink the same amount of alcohol as my friends, most of them get drunker than me!

10. I drink my coffee without any sugar. Once I read something on Facebook that said that people who do that are most likely to become psychopaths. Go figure.

Hope you enjoyed these random facts about moi!
lots of love,
