25 Things About Me
Nice to meet you
1. I am the epitome of a clean freak. Or, better yet, I’m just a freak who has an uncontrollable urge to be tidy.
2. I have to sleep with a fan on at night, regardless of the season, and I just love a fan in every possible way; it is indeed my favorite appliance.
