I have had quite the spike in followers recently so I thought I would have a quick get to (re)know me session in the form of random facts!
- Obviously I'm Rachel
- My name was supposed to be Alexandra but my dad changed his mind last minute
- I can never tell if its is minuet or minute (referring to time)
- I am a bit of a hoarder with books and nail polishes
- I have read over 1,000 books
- I own over 300 paper books (mostly Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb) and about 200 e-books
- I own over 200 nail polishes
- Everyone in my family learns to ski at 3, but I was at 4 because I refused to learn and kept sitting down in the middle of the kiddie slope
- I hate coffee and tea with Chai Lattes and Mint tea being the only exceptions
- My high school was 21,000 kids big. My college is 14,000 on a good day
- I used to have hair down to my waist now it is at my ears
- I have been to Israel, Paris/Versailles, Amsterdam, Curaco, several of the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Canada but I have only been to 13 states
- I have quit more sports then most people will ever play: ballet (jazz, tap, classical), soccer, volleyball, basketball, tennis, ice skating, gymnastics, yoga, and horseback riding (though that was just because it is damn expensive)
- When I was a freshman in high school and in a desktop publishing class, I asked my teacher what profession got to do that... I have wanted to be a graphic designer ever since
- I have anxiety and mild OCD
- Sometimes I am an extreme extrovert and need to be around people, but sometimes I just want to be locked alone in my room for a week with no human contact
- I have an odd obsession with the Kennedys and the Royal family - especially around QV's era
- Despite looking like a good girl, I have 2 tattoos and 9 piercings, and swear like a sailor
- My car is named Izzy. The car before was Adam. My phone is Janice. My AC unit is Jasmine. I like to name inanimate objects
- I cannot snap but I can whistle, roll my tongue, and wink
- When I get bored I wikipedia serial killers and other crime stories. I often wonder if this makes me deranged as well
- The vinyl on my steering wheel is peeling. I am convinced it is because I sing in my car
- I like to talk in funny accents and make funny faces
That's me! Tell me something about you!

I love posts lie this :). And I had no idea you were a NR/JDR fan! I stayed up well past my bedtime reading Tuesdays release (but so worth it!).
Your high school had 21,000 students?! Mine had a little over 1,000. And my college was under 7,000. Holy moly.
I totally relate with the I can either be extremely extroverted or just want to be left alone for a week in my room! Glad to know I'm not the only one!
Ohhhhhh I had no idea you had tattoos! What are they?

What a great list! I am most intrigued by the skiing thing. Why 3? We are very alike. I love looking up serial killers. I am worried that one day if the government takes my computer they are going to think bad things! I have an obsession with the Kennedys too. I even read 11/22/63! (A good book, you should read it!) And of course you know I am a designer.
