Now on to the 7 things:

1. I dont really get the "RSS Feed" thing.

2. Or the purpose of Twitter.

3. I have a new-found love of baking. It started last Thanksgiving when I wanted to bake a pumpkin pie because it's my fave desert. So far, it's going well!
4. I drink at least one cup of coffee and one can of Coke every workday.

5. My parents are divorced. I haven't seen my father in 11 years. I have a 10 year old half sister named Aaliyah that I've never met.
6. I am half Puerto Rican and half Indian (via Trinidad). I can't speak any other language other than English and some Spanglish. I love Puerto Rico, but I've never been to Trinidad or India...until hopefully this fall!

7. I love travelling. I have been to 16 countries...so far. My number 1 place to visit is Australia, followed closely by Italy!
