Meme!

J.S. Peyton at BiblioAddict tagged for a meme-my first ever! Here're the rules

1: Each player starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves.
2: People who are tagged, write a blog post about their own 8 random things, and post these rules.
3: At the end of your post you need to tag 8 people and include their names.
4: Don't forget to leave them a comment and tell them they're tagged, and to read your blog.

*drumroll* Here are my facts...

1. I was born in Athens, Greece. (both of my parents are Americans-they were in the Air Force)

2. My parents got married eight weeks after they met. Twenty-two years later, they're still together.

3. I speak Russian, and I studied abroad in Russia for six months (St. Petersburg and Krasnodar). I want to live in St. Petersburg again.

4. I absolutely love little dogs, and plan on adopting a maltese or toy poodle (both non-shedding) when I have the opportunity. I will dress it in sweaters and I will not apologise to anyone.

5. My favorite dessert is Tiramisu.

6. I have the most wonderful niece/goddaughter in the world: she's fifteen months old and absolutely adorable.

7. I kind of look like Reese Witherspoon-strangers will mention it to me, and one time a Russian really wanted an autograph!

8. I'm joining the Peace Corps this summer.
