10 Facts About Me!
If you guys follow me and Tim on Instagram and watch his vlogs on YouTube, we’ve shared our life and relationship with you and you obviously know a few things about my personal life. Today I thought it would be fun to share things you might not know about me!
- I have trypophobia. Defined by Wikipedia as “the intense, irrational fear of irregular patterns or clusters of small holes or bumps.” For examples, check out this Buzzfeed article here. My skin is literally crawling typing this, so I’m moving on.
- I have a certificate in Interior Decorating. After high school, I moved to Vancouver, BC and completed a certificate program because I thought decorating was what I wanted to do. However, I realized I only like to decorate for myself and not anyone else. So, I didn’t pursue it as a career. Instead it’s a hobby!
- I’ve never broken a bone. Never once, nope, nope, nope!
- I was an aunty at 10 years old. I have 1 nephew and 2 nieces.
- I have Remember The Titans memorized.
- Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is my favorite book and I’ve read it over and over again.
- I love soggy/warm cereal and flat soda. To get my cereal just how I like it, I either let it sit in milk for a bit before I eat it, or I microwave it for 15-20 seconds (mmmmm). Don’t ask, I just like it okay?
- My favorite video games are Tekken and Mortal Kombat.
- As a child I played in a bowling league and my team was called, “Backstreet Boys Girlfriends” LOL. I was probably the worst player, ever.
- I have floaters in my right eye. I don’t exactly know what a floater is, but the best way I can describe it is a grey cloud in my field of vision. Imagine you have a camera and your lens is dirty. It looks like that! Kind of annoying, but I don’t really notice it much anymore because it never goes away.
I know a lot of you have active blogs or blogs you’d like to start up again (because you tell me!). How fun would it be to do a post like this about yourself. Try it!
What is something about you that not a lot of people know?

Girl, I have floaters too! I’ve had them for almost 12 years (I’m 30). Totally freaked me out at first but I’ve learned to live with them. I have the squiggly ones too 😛

Oh my goodness Chia! I really thought it was just me, when it came to trypophobia and the warm milk with slightly soggy cereal. I never knew the word for it until I read your post (lol). I would try to explain this to fear to people but no one would know what the hell I was talking about! It’s very real and why did I click on the buzzfeed article (practically in a fetal position right now)?! When it came to the cereal and room temp milk, people just look at me crazy, but I just keep munching and slurping my cereal and milk away hahaha.
chia
Hahaha! That Buzzfeed article ruined my life. I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels the same way! =)
Lilie
Every single time I read this blog I just feel so much better about everything going on in my work and personal life!
chia
Yayyyy! I’m so glad that I could make you feel that way. It makes me so happpy inside! =)
Danny
What’s your ethnicity?
chia
Eritrean/Salvadorian!

You should make sure your eyes are checked, floaters can be a sign of detaching retnas. Take care of yourself!
chia
I’m always monitored by my opthamologist!

CHIA you are beyond gorgeous and you are goals! I hope you could someday do beauty tutorials, I’m obsessed with those and I feel like you’d make an amazing beauty guru. You’re already naturally pretty! Ok, enough with all the flattery ♡ I also like my sodas flat too!
chia
HELLO! You’re so sweet, but maybe I’ll have to work up to tutorials…don’t hold your breath on that one. Thanks for reading, darling. Love you!
Shan
Omg 😮 Chia, soggy cereal and flat soda?! Ohhhh no, no, no…lol that’s so gross! Now I can not relate with you on that haha. My cereal has to be fresh and crunchy,with super cold milk..and once my 🥤 soda becomes flat, I throw it out! That’s what makes us all unique in our own way, we all gotta be different!😀
chia
Hahaha, I can’t explain it! Thanks for reading babe <3!
