7 random facts about me:

1. I love cats. My love for cats started when a street cat left her newborn male kitten on my door. She looked at me straight in the eyes as if saying "I want you to take care of my baby". I took care of this kitten and let the mom enter my home to feed her baby.

2. I'm a university student majoring in Spanish. One of my dreams would be teaching Spanish in Japan.

3. Besides Japan, San Francisco, California is my dream place to live. I think it is a very artistic city.

4. I love to stay up late at night. I don't know why. I always find more things to do at night than during the day.

5. I love watching Japanese dorama (soap opera).

6. I cut my nails short in August of last year and I have not cut them since then. Currently, my nails are an average of 2.7cm long.

7. I can never leave home without makeup or without nail polish on my nails.

Thanks Tip-Top-Nails and Dragon Lady Nails for this award!

Something about myself that you don't know:
