50 Random Facts About Me

Hello everyone! First and foremost I’d like to say THANK YOU so much for all the wonderful responses of my last post. I was really very moved by all your comments and messages, I do love this art form so much and it’s a joy for me to share my thoughts and crazy ideas with you all!

So I’m working on an awesome series of posts right now that I will probably post next and don’t worry I will account for the other days in NYC that were pretty awesome as well and full of opera. But now I’d like to post something slightly more personal. This is actually a video tag that I saw in my favorite fashion YT channel Evelina. Yes, I subscribe to a fashion channel and Evelina is real cool, she’s not like most of the fashion vlog girls who have irritating voices and sound kinda dumb. No, she’s very sweet and has the most amazing ideas and tips about sorts of things, plus she’s Russian and speaks 4 languages, the girl is smart.
