5 Tuesday Truths

Here's my pre-trip 5 Tuesday Truths..

1. I'm a hoarder.
I have this thing where I basically just want to amass lots and lots of my very favorite thing. For example, I currently have 5 of the same sweater, just in different colors. I can't help it. I find something I just love and I want to keep it forever and love it to death.

2. I can never finish a drink.
Literally. Water, tea, coffee, lemonade. I always always leave about a centimeter of liquid left in the cup. I wish I could learn how to curb this habit.

3. One of my very favorite spots in the world is in Athens, Greece.
I went to Greece two Septembers ago and it left quite an impression on me. Something about being in the place of birth of so many mythical creatures and stories, and the ruins still standing, a testament to all of these... I just love it!

4. If I wasn't making jewelry, I would like to be a writer.
I'm not exactly sure what I would write about, but I do so enjoy writing a good short story or putting my thoughts down when I see something gloriously beautiful, heart-breakingly sad, amazingly breath taking or just simply, unforgettable.

5. I'm currently doing my best to go back to school.
I graduated from school a couple of summers ago and have since then just been itching to rejoin the academic community. I just love the feeling of learning something new... of being around others who challenge me... make me question what I believe in. It's like I can actually see all of the connections firing away in my brain and new ones forming, taking up some of that white and gray matter up there..
It's part of the reason why I closed up shop a week ago and in another few weeks we'll see if I made it back in or not. Here's hoping!


Now I'm off to finish packing the last things on my list. I hope I'll have some internet while I'm in Tucson so I can post some gorgeous pictures up for you! If not, I'll see you in a week!

xoxo,
C.
