Some random things about me

physeteridaeI have been reliably informed that this is 'a good writing exercise', and that it makes you take a good luck at yourself and you often realise things about yourself when you write them down that you didn’t before. So, here goes…
I make note of words I don’t know and look them up later. It's a habit I also tried to instill in my children, and I have a notebook full of them.
I always feel best in a dark blue suit
Rain is one of my favourite sounds
I love finding connections to other people, and never feel self-conscious or out of place, even in a group of strangers. I having a large social circle, but cultivating close friends takes time and trust.
Some of my worst life choices have involved tequila
I will always stand up for myself and get my point across but I loathe arguments, raised voices and drama. I remain permanently unimpressed by people who bring that my way.
I still remember the phone number of the house I grew up in.
I could sit and eat an entire jar of crunchy peanut butter, straight from the jar, licking it off a spoon. I don’t keep peanut butter in the house for this reason.
I'm not a prude, I’m just proper. Certain things have no place being discussed in a public forum.
The way people treat each other generally in society really gets me down.
I find the shocking lack of people who actually listen these days to be pretty depressing.
I used to be a complete pessimist. I wish someone had told me how annoying that was.
Living in London taught me the art of the hustle, how to not stop til you get what you want, how to be unapologetic for wanting greatness
I love those moments where you share a smile or random bit of banter with a stranger.
I'd like to live in Paris for a while. I have no idea what I’d do there, probably just sit in cafes and people watch all day, but I’d love to do it.
I love clothes, style and the art of dressing. I’m not a fan of actually shopping though.
My brothers and I have the kind of relationship where one word can trigger an inside joke that’ll have us laughing for an hour. It’s awesome.
In my line of work, I appreciate my go-with-the-flow attitude. It's not that I don't get stressed, but I don't let stress get to me
I want to try a floatation tank
It's not that I hold grudges exactly, but I do remember a lot of disagreements and hurt feelings
