Ten Random Things About Macchiata 😂

Okay so, let’s loosen up a little bit. I only noticed today that I’ve been nominated by Hive account@gabrielatravels to do this challenge. I will try to write something that I barely talk about in my blog. Something that’s hopefully novel about me.

However, before we go down to 10 random things about me, I want to answer the questions that was given to me "What animal represents you the most, and why?" “

It’s going to be a little animal that’s considered nasty and mostly hated. But I think its behavior kind of resonates with me. It flies here and there, it can be in a clean or dirty place- totally adaptable to situation. It tries so hard to survive among insect repellent and human flip flops. It actually does nothing but people fear of it. Maybe it’s dangerous, who knows but it’s truly nasty. And that is cockroach.

So, let’s leave that grim part. Moving on, here are 10 random things about me.

1. I am an introvert.

Maybe this isn’t new. However, I can be very chatty and outgoing but I still prefer solitude. I also prefer to spend a little time as possible surrounded by others. My ideal day is when I can have my coffee at peace and read books without any distractions. I tend to have a party, but that's only inside my head.

2. I am very shy, perfectionist and self-critical.

I am most likely won’t start a conversation unless you do. Even to be fair, I actually want to mingle with others without having to overthink about how I look, sound,behave. I always assess what I write, type or say but overtime, I don’t give a shit.

So what if I am not perfect? nobody is perfect anyway. But that’s just flowing through my ears, and often I will be back to my perfectionism.

3. I enjoy stand up comedy.

I am not a movie buff. But I will definitely enjoy a good stand up comedy especially when the topic is about criticizing society. I still want to go to watch a live performance especially from Daniel Sloss.

4. My biggest pet peeve.

The only thing in the world, that someone shouldn’t tell me is,that I shouldn’t be spending too much on coffee. I am just like any other person, they splurge on things they love. I happen to love coffee. It is as simple as that.

5. I am always an indecisive person.

I never know what I really want. Since I was a little, I tried many things such as : swimming, modeling, painting, martial arts (karate), knitting, sewing, mechanical things, musical things (I was in marching band, an orchestra, a choir and a band), programming, designing, dj-ing and anything I can try. I am mostly jack in all trades but I have yet to pick something I like. I think when you know what you want, life is a little focused and easier.

6. I love lurking around the web.

Who doesn’t? I was always curious about the places that I have been told is having political turmoil. I was always curious about what it is like living in another country.I was always curious about how things work and how to break it. I was always curious on how to fix things.I may not be around that much, not saying anything but I read things. And I think I can be a good background/ fact checker.

7. I want to live off the grid.

Having to spend my entire life living surrounded by concrete walls, I grow fond of the nature. My ideal ways to settle down is somewhere a little far from the city, with a little garden, some pets and a swimming pool.

8. I am a business minded.

Despite some business practices contrasted to my principal, I have always been an entrepreneur. At the age of 7, I was selling cookies and cakes. At the age of 11, I was selling books, food and cookies. At the age of 15 I was helping my parents with their travel business. Then at the university, I was selling cookies and doing dropshipping.

I am good at seeing opportunities but I am just too lazy to do it. Regardless, I can give you a business ideas based on your preferences and your location. Bonus with how to run the business.

9. I pronounce some English words in French or Spanish way.

I need to go back to kindergarten and learn how to spell. It was normal once.Yet after learning couple of different languages, it’s all completely mixed. I am currently learning Esperanto, just started a few days back in hope it simplifies the way I see language. I also think Esperanto is very easy to learn and pronounce. So, any esperento speakers out there, Saluton! mia nomo estas macchiata :D

10. I want to have my own library.

I want to have a place where it’s accessible for public to read. My biological mother have set an example for me that it’s doable within a small community. I want to do that as well, one day if I already find a place where I decide to settle down.
