And to wrap up our little series on getting to know the ladies behind Chic-Thrills, our darling contributer Erika has listed out 20 fun facts about herself. Here goes…
- I’m also a strict vegetarian and also a vegan on most days. My dietary change happened as a result of my love and admiration for animals, but has been sustained because it’s so healthy! And it’s a pure coincidence that all three of us Chic-Thrills writers are vegetarians. It makes dining out together really easy.
- I’m obsessed with any type of fitness or workout activity, except maybe kickboxing. I just can’t get into it.
- I danced for a majority of my life and I really, really miss structured classes every day. Sometimes you can find me dancing around my apartment.
- I am painfully indecisive, but also have a big imagination. I have wanted to open up numerous businesses and start random projects because of my wandering mind.
- I LOVE to bake and give away my goods as gifts. I especially loving making cakes into shapes. Some I’ve made in the past include an XBOX controller, a penis, and a monkey.
- If money weren’t an obstacle I would own a house on both coasts. I am an east coaster at heart, but love the warm weather and beach culture of California.
- Most people who just meet me would never guess that I have three tattoos.
- I have a weird addiction to pretzels. I can’t stop eating them. Ruth can vouch!
- The next place I am dying to go is Costa Rica.
- When I was younger, I told my parents I was going to live in Australia. Instead, I studied abroad there. I also told my parents I wanted to join Greenpeace and save the whales.
- If I had to pick, right now I would say my three favorite movies are Definitely, Maybe, Pirates of the Carribbean (the first one), and The Little Mermaid. Although, I recently saw Up in the Air and thought it was great.
- Although I beg to differ, a lot of people in my life have told me I look like Lindsay Lohan. I’m pretty convinced it’s just the freckles.
- The best gift I ever gave was a surprise trip to Aruba to my parents for their wedding anniversary.
- I’ve known a good amount of my friends since elementary and middle school. They are true, genuine and amazing people.
- I am pleased to say that I am very, very close with my family, especially my sister and I call my Mom at least once a day.
- I am a firm believer that you don’t have to pay a fortune to look like a million bucks. Right now, I am really into the boho, laid back style emulated by Nicole Richie and clothes from Free People. I also tend to devour the J.Crew catalog every time it arrives.
- I really, really like magazines. I like them so much, I have kept most of my issues from my high school days up until now. That might be weird, but I can’t let them go.
- My favorite meal of the day is brunch. I love breakfast foods and could eat them at any hour. Plus, who doesn’t love mimosas?
- My grandmother gave me her old Polaroid camera a few months ago, and ever since I’ve been obsessed! I just wish film wasn’t so expensive.
- Everyday I check my horoscope on NY Post.com. I was never a huge believer in them, but Sally Brompton is a magician. Even if I check at the end of the day, her predictions are usually right.
