Somewhere, on someone's site, I really don't remember whose, I saw a list of "100 things you may not know about me." Because I'm so full of myself, I cannot resist it. Even though, 100 things - yep that's a buttload of stuff. But wonders never cease because the attention whore in me is up for the challenge. Anyways, here goes.

100 Things About Me:

1. I�m not physically fit or strong what so ever and yet every time I�ve arm wrestled I�ve always won, and no I�ve never cheated.

2. I have a gap in my two front teeth. The parental units have always tried to fix it and I always thought it was part of my charm. (Please Madonna & Lauren Hutton have it and look how far they've gone.)

3. I'm far too trusting and gullible. If you tell me something is true, I'll probably believe it.

4. I want to try to live life to the fullest, because I'm always aware that today may be my last.

5. It's hard for me to say no, but I'm getting better at it.

6. I never realize a guy likes me unless he tells me directly and frequently.

7. I worry a lot about things. I try hard not to.

8. The first thing I do when I get home from work/going out is check my email. (I'm a dork I know.)

9. I get into trouble for saying what I think.

10. I am light sensitive. I can't see well in the sun, and my skin burns horribly.

11. When I was a kid, my older brother dared me to ride my bike down a steep hill in our apartment complex in Italy. I did, without any knowledge that I had no breaks what so ever on my bike, and I ended up stopping when my forehead violently slammed against a concrete pillar. The pillar was covered with tiny pebbles so till this day I still have a faint mark on my forehead.

12. I don't like spicy food at all.

13. I talk in my sleep.

14. I hate dreadlocks, they look dirty.

15. My favorite flowers are gardenias & jasmine. Roses are soooo boring.

16. I have a speech prepared, since I was 7 years old, if I ever win an Oscar or BAFTA. I used to practice it in front of the mirror after coming back from ballet classes in London.

17. I think Brad Pitt is ugly.

18. I always wonder how women who have huge fake plastic talons for nails can wipe their asses when they go to the bathroom and take a shit.

19. I really love orange tic-tacs and yet I hate all other tic-tac flavors.

20. I don�t like ice cream � it�s too cold.

21. I�ve watched every Real World that�s been on TV. And while I know it�s pointless TV I still watch on.

22. When I was a little girl a huge motorcycle fell on me. To this day I can�t remember it and how my older brother (being a little kid as well) could have lifted such a huge weight off of me.

23. I�ve always had a problem reading any maps.

24. I don't mind watching porn, in fact I enjoy it.

25. I've been a blonde, brunette and redhead. Currently back to my natural brunette hair color.

26. I hate peanut butter and marshmallow.

30. In college I used to have a soda for breakfast every day.

31. I've seen every James Bond movie made.

32. I'll always say Sean Connery was the best James Bond but Roger Moore wasn't that bad either.

33. I knocked over Dustin Hoffman while he was pushing a pram as I ran out of my house to catch the school bus in London. No one was hurt and he was very nice about it. Then again I was only 10 years old.

34. I went to my last year of high school here in NYC where I met and became friends with Liv Tyler.

35. When I was younger and in our summer home in Brazil my uncle's dog bit my ass as I ran around in circles screaming and crying for it to let go of my bum.

36. I own a Barbie & Ken X File doll set. (And no, I have no shame in my game when it comes to the X Files.)

37. I've skinny dipped in a pool at night with a bunch of other people.

38. I've almost had a threesome. I ended up not being happy with the situation and backed out of it incredibly fast.

39. I referred to the priest in any church as the pope up till I was about 12 years old.

40. I've always wanted to have one red wall in my room. For no other reason but contrast.

41. Ouija boards scare me, no matter how cheesy they may be.

42. I dream of being rich enough not to be bothered with work. A Karen sort of life.

43. I buy glossy magazines and flip through them. I never manage to read much that's in them at all.

44. I don't understand why an African American can say the "n" word and get angry with a white person who says's it. Shouldn't the word be obliterated from our language to begin with? It shouldn't matter what color your skin is, if it's a bad word shouldn't it just remain a bad word?

45. I've pierced my tongue and kept the piercing in for 3 days. After that the pain and blood were excruciating and I decided it wasn't worth it.

46. I'm a wuss when it comes to pain. No tolerance for it what so ever.

47. I can belch anytime I want to.

50. I know way too much information about serial killers, thanks to books and TV shows such as the FBI Files, etc.

51. I carry Silly Putty with my always. When I'm nervous I play with it.

52. My favorite color is black.

53. I think Russell Crowe is a git. And not at all attractive. He reminds me of a bear looking too scruffy and ready to throw up on you. Not something very attractive in my book.

54. If I smell coffee I get the worst migraines.

55. Tanqueray gin and tonics are my beverage of choice when ordering at a bar.

56. Whenever I end up getting married I am going to wear white sneakers instead of heels. The dress will cover them up and I want to be comfortable.

65. If I ever have kids I want to name them Jack and Lolita.

66. I�ve always wanted a dog and yet I can�t stand their smell.

67. I�ve seen all of the Ghostbusters movies a thousand times, and yet I still get a kick out of watching them.

68. I�ve always been told I�ve got great eyelashes for some strange reason.

69. I hate the color purple, not the movie, the color itself.

70. I carry a camera with me always; you never know when you�ll get a Kodak moment after all.

71. One of my best friends�s killed himself.

72. I�ve gone to therapy once when I was a teenager. After 15 minutes of interrogation I told the mind rapist that I thought the whole session was bullshit. I didn�t need someone to tell me my problems when I already knew what they were. I also felt like I was paying someone to be there to listen to me, which was ridiculous. I still feel the same way.

73. I want to get a tattoo of a ladybug except I�m too scared to do it. I keep thinking of myself as a grandma with a tattoo and it just doesn�t work for me.

74. I�ve only ridden a roller coaster once, scared the hell out of me and I�ll never do that again.

75. I always carry mints or gum with me. I have somewhat of an oral fixation.

76. I think scars are sexy, they give a person character.

77. I drink a tall glass of cold milk every morning.

78. I�ve always wanted to have green eyes rather than plain old brown.

79. I�ve always thrown big birthday parties on my birthday. Somehow it all comes together nicely.

90. Thanks to kickboxing classes I can kick past my shoulder level.

91. At my new job I work for 8 men and one woman, all of them sweethearts.

92. When I daydream it�s always the same thing. I�ve won a large amount of money and I�m always thinking of what I�d do with it.

93. I can�t curl my tongue, but my mom and brother can.

94. I once held my friends hand when she was getting her cootchie sewn up tighter. To this day I still get the creeps thinking about it.
