1. I’m named after a herb. I mean my REAL name, not my user name. But hey, they are similar.

2. Religion? I am agnostic.

3. View on politics? Ugh!

4. I’m 24 but people often mistake me for a teenager. It’s probably the height.

5. I’m 5 feet tall (more like 5 feet short).

6. My natural hair color is brown (darker at the roots, light at the tips) and it’s my current color. Through the years my hair has also been darker brown or some shade of black. From time to time I’ve had highlights - blond, bright red, rusty red or purple. The purple ones happened as an accident but I loved them.

7. I used to have three piercngs on each ear but now I only have one on each (the others healed).

8. I have a tongue piercing. Just one.

9. Eye color – boring brown.

10. I wear glasses when I watch TV or go to lectures.

11. Cat or dog? Why chose when you can have both?

12. Pets I’ve had or still have: dog, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, a turtle, scorpions. We never actually bought any cats. On several occasions, we took in baby kittens that were thrown out in the streets. We managed to find some of them homes with friends, some cats left when they grew up and some stayed. We currently have two.

13. Animals I want to have: owl, fox, wolf, tiger, cheetah, dragon. But a friendly dragon, not an OMG!-it’s-gonna-eat-meeeee dragon.

14. I have two cactuses. One is named Bertie, the other – Benji.

15. My laptop also has a name: Brick (or Brickie when I’m affectionate).

16. I’m addicted to Milka chocolate and have a bunch of stuff that brand offers as prizes during promotions: two Milka stuffed toys, two Milka blankets, a Milka stuff cow/pillow, a Milka cup, a Milka magnet writing board with a Milka pen… I think that’s all…

17. Speaking of stuffed toys: I have so many that if they came to life and flipped, they’d take over the city and enslave all humans.

18. As a child, I took a few riding lessons.

19. One of the best presents I’ve ever gotten was The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. 

20. I listen to pretty much every genre of music but I’m most fond of 90’s music.
