25 Random Things About ME!!!

1. I love to travel and move around. I get antsy if I am in one place for too long. I have lived in four different countries, and moved nine times in less than four years. Although I am from New York, Toronto and California feel like home. Still on the fence about the People's Republic of Portland...I hate it, but I am going to TRY to like it.

2. My favorite color is pink, but I hardly ever wear it. I have a pink BlackBerry, iPod, digital camera, curtains, frying pan, carving knife, mixing bowl set, Coach keychain, BCBG stilettos, purse, shower curtain...you get the point!

3. My family is super close. I know it sounds dorky, but my parents are my best friends.

4. I never cry...it has been two or three years since I last cried. I have never cried over a guy, either. I am a heartless bitch. I also don't believe in soul mates or true love.

5. I have caught the bouquette at a wedding.

6. I hate cats and am extremely allergic to them (because I am allergic to EVERYTHING) and they seem to LOVE me! I am so a dog person.

7. My life's ambition is to be a Bond Girl. But I want to be an evil one and I don't want to be one that dies. Or be the CEO of a Fortune 500 Company.

8. Letter writing is a lost art. I much prefer to write real letters via snail mail than email...so everyone give me their street address!!!

9. When I was younger I used to hate my name. I went through a stage when I would only answer to Rainbow Bright and I used to make my dad be RB's horse, Swift Wind. (I know, I am super cool.) Then I discovered that "Sara" means "princess" and have love my name ever since...I am such a jap! And I really HATE when people spell it "Sarah" because that is not my name. That fucking 'h' is pretentious!!!

10. I am a Samantha- I hate being in relationships, I never want to get married, and I never want kids...in fact, I kinda hate children. I have my job to keep my busy! Besides, I really like being single! ;) I am extremely independent and do not like relying on anyone for anything- I want to do it all myself! I absolutely love the fact that I am at a point in my life where I can provide for me and buy just about anything I want. All the women who independent, throw your hands up at me!!!!!!

11. Thanks to a few years of practicing yoga, I am really flexible. I can get my foot behind my head!

12. I hardly ever watch TV. I mean, I have a TV, but it just isn't plugged in or anything. They only time I watch it is when I am at the gym. I much prefer to read.

13. I am a super nerd and proud of it! At DaimlerChrysler, the admins told me I was a nerd trapped in the body of a fashionista.

14. I collect heels the way some might collect stamps. Christian Louboutin, Gucci, Manolo, Stuart Weitzman, Pucci, Chrisitan Dior, Cole Haan...all my boys! For me, the shoes make the outfit and are the first thing I pick out when I get dressed. Unless I am at the gym or the beach, I always wear heels! But I do not have a favorite pair. I would imagine asking me to pick a favorite is like asking a parent which child he/she likes best. It's kinda funny because I never wore heels before I started business school because I couldn't walk in them. But after two years of trekking up and down the mountains of the Pepperdine campus, I have my MBA AND the ability to walk/run/jog/skip/hop in stilettos.

15. I can be really long-winded. With me, there is not such thing as a the short version- it is always long or longer. Ask me what time it is, and I will tell you how to make a watch, the history of watches, and the best place to buy a watch!

16. I have needed each and every one of my cars, including the ten million I had a Chrysler. Currently, I am driving a brand new BMW 328, which I love more than life itself! Her name is Vesper Lynd. Yes, I named my car after a Bond Girl!

17. I loooooove tequila.

18. One of my favorite things in the world to do is get my hair done...maybe it is because my stylist has an endless supply of wine...

19. Not only can I tell you how many calories are in just about anything, I can tell you how many miles you will have to run to burn it off...yeah, I may not have the healthiest relationship with food and exercise.

20. One Christmas I knocked our ginormous tree over and broke most of the ornaments. My sisters still will not let me live it down. And I think the following year I almost burned down res with a menorah incident. I am not so good with the holidays. (Hahaha, remember that, Christina?!?!)

21. I am totally addicted to caffeine...coffee, green tea, you name it! I am also addicted to artificial sweetner...let's hear it for diet pop!!!! (As Emily knows, I have been known to start the day by say, "I'm disgusting" while drinking a can of Diet Coke.)

22. I would like to think that everything in life happens for a reason and the person we become is a culmination of all those experiences. At the same time, life is what you make of it and how you handle everything that comes your way. We all have the ability to change things in our lives we don't like, or at least make the best of it. I think it is important to enjoy each stage of your life because five years from now you will look back and wish you had. I have been drinking too much of the Yoga Kool-aid!

23. I hate chickflicks. I thought Titanic was the worst movie EVER! I love the Godfather, Old School, Animal House, Top Gun, Scarface, Terminator, etc.

24. I enjoy the whole process of getting ready in the morning or to go out at night. I love picking out my clothes! And I wear makeup because I think it's fun to put on, not necessarily because I think I need it. Although without make-up I look young. It is not uncommon that I am mistaken for a high school student!!! Wooohoooo!

25. I attract crazy people. It's cuh-RAZY how much they seem to love me.
