45
things you (probably) don't know about me
1. I had a black
rabbit named Snoopie as a kid. I would take her with me every holiday and walk
around the campsite with her on a lease
2. I used to be (and still kind of am) terrified of doing a forward roll (let alone a
backward one!)

seriously asked me if my natural hair colour is pink
4. I'm naturally a
red head
5. My hands and
feet are ALWAYS cold

mission to try every tuna sandwich there is.

pink until about 3 years ago
8. Same counts for
Hello Kitty

anything, except for liver

ride again though.

artist and illustrator.

stand people who don't finish their plate or eat very slow

about 10 years old I won a book writing + illustrating contest with a story
about a dog that dies of cancer and leaves behind a sad little puppy. I still
don't know how I ever came up with that story.
21. I can't go a
day without eating bread
22. I love doing the dishes
23. When people
tell me they don't like to eat a specific something, I take that as a
challenge. Like, I will 'hide' the disliked ingredient in the dish, or make

Usually people love what I cooked them and I take a lot of joy telling them my
secret afterwards :P

world better when it didn't have smartphones

letter of acceptance from Hogwarts.

35. When I was in middle school people teased me by calling me a lighthouse (since I was so much taller than everyone else and had red hair) and I remember it used to really upset me.
