I may not have a practical mind, but it's very fixated on concrete things. I like detail.

I love food and I love everything involved with food. I love the fun of it. I love restaurants. I love cooking, although I don't cook very much. I love kitchens.

I may not like the material, but I'm still a trouper.

Talking in one language and talking in another, I think inevitably, produce two different personalities, as far as I've seen in other people. I assume it does the same for me.

I'm an emotional person. I may not seem that way, but I'm an emotional person.
