I decided to get a little personal today and create a list of random facts about myself. So here it is guys get to know me a little more! (hopefully you won’t think I’m too strange LOL)
Fact 1: Spanish was my first language growing up. I learned english going to school.

Fact 2: Growing up I wanted to be an illustrator and author of children’s books.

Fact 3: I love to paint and I used to draw really well when I was a kid. My favorite thing to draw was cartoon characters
Fact 4: I am an organized messy person….if that makes sense??
Fact 5: I love my curly hair. Of course when I was younger I used to hate my curls and for a while had to go through a transition phase because I damaged my curls so badly from straightening my hair constantly.
Fact 6: I will ONLY straighten my hair once or twice a year!
Fact 7: I am NOT good with technology at all. I can barely figure out how to use the computer.
Fact 8: I love the old American big band/swing music era: Billy Holiday, Glenn Miller, Louie Armstrong, and Jimmy Durante just to name a few are my favorites.
Fact 9: One of my favorite songs from Glenn Miller is Moonlight Serenade (side note: super cheesy, I know, but when I play the song I make my husband stop what he’s doing and dance with me to that song….most of the time it’s in the kitchen)
Fact 10: I still can’t figure out snapchat to save my life!
Fact 11: I am obsessed with the Victorian Era. Any movies with Kings and Queens, I’m in!
Fact 12: When I was a kid I used to think in music videos they used to change out of their clothes really, really fast.
Fact 13: I learned how to apply makeup by watching hours and hours of youtube videos.
Fact 14: The reason I got into wearing makeup was because I hated my nose for the longest time. I always said I was cursed with the Rivera beak LOL! As I got older, figured out the power of contour, and learned to love my self, I joke about the curse now. I like my snoze, it suits me.
Fact 15: I love Jesus!

Fact 16: A major pet peeve of mine is when I am holding the door for someone and walk through WITHOUT saying thank you! OMG that drives me insane so I always yell YA WELCOME!

Fact 20: I am an extremely shy person, but once I get to know you I am super goofy.
Fact 21: I am also obnoxious, ask my husband.
Fact 22: I have a weird sense of humor. What “normally” would make someone laugh doesn’t make me laugh at all. Most of the time I laugh on the inside.
