Heyhey
lovelies!
A bit of
a different post than I usually do on a Friday, but what the heck, I was in the
mood for it.
One of
the blogposts I enjoy reading the most is the ’20 facts about me’. I love
reading weird and funny things about the people I follow, it gives me a warm
feeling inside.
So I decided to join in myself! Hope you like it!
o
I’m
a ‘warmth addict’. I literally go look for warm places everywhere since I get
cold very quickly and I absolutely HATE it.
o
I
have very bad vision. I have a dioptre of -8.5 on my right eye and -8.0 on my
left eye, which basically means I am blind as f*ck without my glasses or
contact lenses. I’ve had bad eyes since I was 7, but I’ve been stable for
almost 3 years now so I’m thinking of getting my eyes lasered in the next
years.
o
My
favourite scent ever since I was little is Vanilla. As a kid I always used to
go sniff my mother’s vanilla powder bags.
o
I
have a huge sweet tooth. When I was
little I sometimes used to sneak into the kitchen and put a whole spoonful of
nutella in my mouth. (Okay. I admit, this still happens now. But not much.
Like, one time a month maybe ..?)
o
I
have agoraphobia. This basically means that I have a fear of wide, open spaces.
I remember having a viewmaster as a kid (you know, those things you put round
cards in and then you can see all kinds of scenes through the eyethingies) and
me and my sister had some space scene cards. I just couldn’t look at them, not
being able to see the end of something gives me the most uncomfortable feeling
ever. I also HATE movies or videos that
are filmed under water because the sea is such an infinite, open space. I can’t
swim in a pool that’s so deep you can’t see the bottom of it, I don’t like
going to Sea Life because of the shark tunnel… pretty weird phobia, right?
o
I
have Raynaud’s disease. It’s not actually a disease, it’s more of a syndrome. Raynaud's disease causes some areas of your
body, such as your fingers and toes, to feel numb and cold in response to cold
temperatures or stress. In Raynaud's disease, smaller arteries that supply
blood to your skin narrow, limiting blood circulation to affected areas. My
hands and feet then go blue, purple, orange, and eventually some of my fingers
might turn white and numb. In response to warm temperatures the opposite
happens: the arteries widen up and pump a whole lotta blood through, causing my
hands and feet to swell and to turn extremely red. Raynauds also causes me to
get cold very quickly (that’s probably why I’m such a warmth junkie!). I’ve had
it for all my life and it doesn’t really cause problems, it’s mostly just
uncomfortable and I have to wear gloves when the temperatures outside drop.
o
I
could live in my pink dinosaur onesie.
o
I have the best boyfriend in the whole wide
world.
o
I
sleep with an Elmo cuddly toy every night. I got it from a friend a few years ago and I’ve gotten so attached to
it that I can’t sleep one night without it. I’ve always been the kind of person
to get easily attached to stuffed animals.
o
I’m
obsessed with things that scare me. Horror movies are my favourite although I
can’t sleep for weeks after watching one. There was also a time that I was
completely obsessed with the black humor cartoon series ‘Salad Fingers’, I just
couldn’t stop watching it and wanted to know everything about it. The storyline
is just so intruiging!
o
In
my opinion, pugs are the most adorable creatures ever.
o
In
my next life, I’d either want to be a cat or a lion. Seriously, cats and
catlike animals are my soulmates. I just FEEL them.
o
I
studied Latin – Modern Languages in highschool and did a year of Sciences of
Arts at the University of Ghent before beginning my journalism studies.
o
I
like to dip pickles chips in beer. Not just any beer though, it has to be Faro
Boon (a Belgian beer). I call it ‘Farkles’. Hashtag noshame.
o
My favourite food EVER is Greek food.
o
I
can’t listen to music without headphones on. I’m addicted to the quality of
sound my Sennheiser brings me and songs just don’t have as much intensity when
I hear them just from my laptop…
o
I’m
a HUGE metal/metalcore fan. Yup, I’m the
girliest of girls, but bands like Bring Me The Horizon, Of Mice And Men, Amon
Amarth and Dimmu Borgir make my heart
skip a beat. I also listen to metal to calm me down, which my boyfriend finds
very strange (and sometimes annoying).
o
I
danced from the age of 3 until I was 18 years old, then stopped when I went to
Uni. Still miss it every day.
o
I
have an inner emo kid that loves everything black and fangirls over Vanilla Sky,
Simple Plan and All Time Low.
o
I
spend way too much money on things to decorate my house, especially because I
don’t really have a house to myself yet. But hey, never too early to start
collecting!
