I have never done anything like this before, so without me over thinking it(because I over think a lot) I am going to list 201 random facts about myself:

1. I am terrible at multiple choice exams, they confuse me a lot. I prefer essay type questions.
2. I do not like playing competitive games, my husband is super competitive so to keep peace we don’t play games. I would crash and burn if I were to compete say on Chopped.
3. I have many hobbies, my favourite is reading anything really except for motivational books. I feel like they are a fraud paying someone to tell you, you can do it without actually giving you practical advice. That is just me. My favourite books are the totally unrealistic kinds, where you almost always know what will happen but I read them still. A few twists and turns always help.
4. I enjoy shelling peanuts. It refreshes me.
5. My favourite snack is maputi, the store-bought kind.
6. I do not like attending meetings or talking on the phone. I prefer email or texts.
7. I choose clothes that are most comfortable for me. I am a tights and t-shirts person.  I will look at heels and think they are nice or even buy them but I can not wear them comfortably for an hour.
8. My favourite shoes are Tommies by Bata. I have a few pairs but I need more. I am UK size 7 in case you would like to buy a pair for me. Plus you can not beat the price, I think they are US$7.
9. I enjoy watching business news stations like Bloomberg and CNBC. i also enjoy cooking and home improvement channels.
10. I do not like politics, it is a pity it has to affect my life!
11. I like making lists of things to do and then start a new project on a whim.
12. I do not have a favourite color. Black is my safest choice.
13. I go on Expedia and plan a trip but never actually take a lot of them. I also do the same with clothes, I will go on a website choose clothes and place in a cart and never actually buy them.
14. I enjoy thrifting and repurposing the items I get. I have scored some new times at a fraction of the cost especially Leo’s toys and books. To some extent it feels like renting the toys because I donate the same toys to the thrift shop when he has outgrown them.
15. I enjoy teaching Leo but hate cleaning up. It’s amazing how much a mess such a small person can make in a short time.
16. I enjoy learning new things especially things I can do with my hands. I learn more by doing.
17. I do not like pictures of myself.
18. My favourite subject at school was mathematics. The answer is never subjective!
19. I generally do not like housework but I HATE doing floors. Especially shining concrete floors, I honestly do not see the point to it especially when you have a high traffic home. I am lazy and I own that.
20. I enjoy cooking and experimenting with ingredients. The food always tastes better the next day though.
21. My happiest place is when I am creating. I could be writing, sewing, or making a table, gardening. I don’t really care, I am happy.
