• Also inform them about their nomination.
• Reveal 7 facts about yourself that your readers may not know

Now onto the facts…

I am very short. And when I say that, I mean that I am shorter than the average height for my age. I am pretty sure fourteen -year-old, alike me, average at about 5’3″. And then there’s me 5’0″ and 1/2. I always like to make the extra half count! But although you are prone to be made fun of with a shorter height, there’s nothing about it to make you non-confident. I think it’s actually kinda fun to be the shorter person walking down the halls at school. The only part that I hate is that I m constantly asking people to grab things for me from higher shelves.

I cannot swim. Sounds crazy, right? But, I took swimming lessons for almost four years (maybe more?) and I can do no more than a doggy paddle. With that said, I also HATE deep bodies of water, such as oceans and deep pools. Since I suck at swimming, I like to know that I can touch the bottom.

I really like shopping. And, not just for books. Although I love to browse through Chapters’ selection for hours, I also really like to shop for clothes, makeup, and decor. I love searching for new jeans and t-shirts; concealer and eyeshadow. I am in NO way a stylish person or good at makeup, but staying up to date with the latest trends is always good. I am currently waiting for stores to stock up on their fall collections so that I can buy some jeans, knitted sweaters, and flannels.

I don’t watch TV or movies. If it’s something hyped, maybe. But for the most part, I don’t watch them. The last TV shows I watched and finished were Riverdale and Stranger Things. My friends were all addicted to them so I just had to give them a go! I have tried watching other series too, but I’ve never been able to finish them. As for movies, I hardly watch them. I do really want to see the adaptation for Everything, Everything, since I recently finished the book. But I’m not really interested in anything else.

I am a VERY picky eater. Probably not as much as most people, but I won’t eat a lot of things. The number one food that I hate is mayonnaise. It seriously wins for ickiest condiment. I also am not a fan of ketchup, fish, meat with bones, ham, and a million other things. I try to eat a lot of plant-based foods over meat and dairy. I am also a sweet tooth – I love fruit, candy, and chocolate ❤

I have an urge to travel the world, and experience new things. SO, I guess you could call me “wanderlust.” I’ve been to many places in the past, including Hawaii, Mexico, Orlando, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Vancouver, and many other airports. Those are just a few of the places that we’ve vacationed to or spent the night in. But most of all, I want to travel to New York and spend a chilly night in a coffee shop. I want to go to bookstores, watch a broadway show, experience the thrill of Times Square and live as a New York person for a week of my life. A girl can dream, right?

I’m an October baby and my birthday falls on October 17. I always find it creepy how my birthday is in the month of horror and is on an odd day. But, according to horoscopes, libras are some of the nicest people!
