11 things about me
- I am the eldest of three children, my sister being the middle and my brother, the youngest.
- I am Japanese and Okinawan yet I have a Hawaiian middle name. Actually, I'm the only one in my family who has a Hawaiian name. Long story short, my mother's adoptive family, or hanai family, is Hawaiian.
- I'm going to be a junior in college this upcoming fall semester where I am studying English.
- I love to eat. If you want to try out a new place, call me up! I love exploring what's out there.
- I get sentimentally attached to things and find it hard to part with them. Possible hoarder tenancies? Nah, I eventually give in to the clutter and purge.
- Music is a big part of who I am. I connect better with people and ideas when I can relate it to music. People have told me that I'm a walking ipod; I sing to whatever song is playing.
- I can get lost in books. I have quite the vivid imagination and tend to "see" the book as I read. This makes it difficult when there are film adaptations because I get very annoyed when it doesn't turn out how I envisioned in my head.
- I'm addicted to scuba diving. If you haven't done it, what the hell are you waiting for?
- My favorite movie of all time is Grease.
- I would like to move to the East Coast, preferably New York.
- I may like to shop a little too much.
Questions from Scenique Route
- What is your number one goal in life?
- I would like to have the opportunity to travel the world. I'd love to become a fashion/travel writer and document my finds and ideas as I globe-trot.
2. What do you gravitate towards more, shoes or makeup?
- As much as I love shoes, I'd definitely say makeup. I am obsessed with makeup. It's a little strange as well because I don't wear much, yet I have and know about so many products. I enjoy doing other peoples' makeup more than my own.
3. Are you more of an outdoors or indoors person?
- Ooh, this depends. If we're talking full on nature outdoors, I'm definitely an indoors gal. I hate getting dirty so things like hiking are out of the question. The only exception is the beach and being in the water. But I love being on boats and at parks on a nice day.
4. What is your favorite restaurant?
- I have far too many. But one of my favorites is Himalayan Kitchen. The food is amazing and I love the atmosphere. I'm all about the right kind of atmosphere of places and this place definitely has it. Laid back, eclectic, yet simple and effortless.
- I'd love to be able to sew. My life would be so much easier if I could make exactly what I wanted, when I wanted it. I would save so much money and be able to tailor items to fit my body rather than the general public's.
- I'd love my own rent-controlled loft or brownstone apartment in NYC (does that count?). I thrive on independence and Hawaii is way too slow for my liking.
- Italy. I've wanted to go there since I was in the fourth grade. It's the perfect blend of the old culture and new. Not to mention it has amazing museums, art, architecture, fashion, music, and culture.
- Food/Drink: Mocha Cookie Crumble frap at Starbucks
- Clothing/Shoes: Black suede ankle boots from Target that totally look like the Dolce Vita Jamison boots
- Makeup: New shade of Chanel Vita Lumiere Aqua Foundation
- Random: EOS hand lotion
- BAGS, hands down. It's a problem...
- Noooooooo. This question is impossible! Too many too possibly just choose one. Always on rotation are: Citizen Cope, Michael Buble, Led Zeppelin, Ella Fitzgerald, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes, old musical movie soundtracks, and...so many others. Hahaha this question is hard!
- I'd really like to meet J.K. Rowling because I think the woman is genius. I am such a fan of Harry Potter and I cannot believe how detailed and extensive of a world she created in the series. I'd love to have a chance to pick her brain.
- If you could live in a foreign country, where would it be?
- What is your favorite type of food?
- Is there anything that you hold onto (physical object) from your childhood?
- If you had $5000 to spend, would you spend it on a plane ticket, a handbag, or a killer pair of shoes?
- If you could see one musical artist, living or not, who would it be?
- What is a book you can read over and over again?
- How did you become close to your best friend? (I'm curious because I can't remember for the life of me! It just seems like we've always just been best friends.)
- What is your dream job?
- What do you splurge on?
- If it was impossible for you to fail, what is one thing you would love to do?
- What is one thing you'd like to accomplish in your lifetime?
