Let’s see if I can think of 100 facts that describe me.

1. I never really liked my name. I don’t care anymore. I registered some domain names with my name in it, because they were still available. And at the same time, that’s kind of odd, since I share my name with some famous female singer. I don’t know her and her songs. But it’s a pain in the neck in search engines, having to share your real name with some celebrity. My username on most websites is Rosiewosie.
2. I’m a girly geek. I like tech stuff.
3. I have asthma and many allergies.
4. Web design began as a hobby for me, and it really still is
5. I am a steady (Macromedia) Fireworks user. I have been using it since 2001. And I don’t want to use anything else. I’m also very attached to the old Macromedia Fireworks. I have the new Adobe Fireworks. I just don’t like it as much. I prefer MX.
6. In case you didn’t know already, I LOVE California ♥.
7. I am addicted to pizza. Yes, I can live without it for a week, or longer. But I like it a lot!
8. I drink Wiener Melange every day. It’s some sort of cappuccino like coffee.
9. I have over 25000 photos. I can make photos of anything. And no matter how dull a subject really was, my photos usually turn them into something interesting.
10. I have EVERY Sims game (Sim this, Sim that). I even have some games several times. For example, The Sims Livin Large. I have that one 5 times. Mainly due to Deluxe editions and collections.
11. I bought The Sims Party AGAIN recently, just because of the different box art.

14. One day I will have my own design and development studio.
15. I love pink and leopard stuffz, and those two combined.
16. I already had a webcam in 1999, which I think makes me one of the first ‘normal’ people with one of those. I still have that same webcam though. And I definitely need a new one. But I don’t like using it. So I couldn’t be bothered less.
17. There isn’t a moment I am bored on my PC. I design, develop, game and learn constantly.
18. My natural hair color is brownish/red. But I dye my hair brown/(bright)red/blonde from time to time.
19. My mom is blonde, but has a darker skin than me.
20. I converted many people from IE to Firefox. Anyone who hasn’t switched by now is just hopeless, and is also someone I won’t waste my time on.
21. I gave birth to the first famous Sims baby. Yes, a famous Sims baby. Why? Well, his daddy, ChEeTaH is the webmaster of the well known Sims site The Sims Zone. And Seth’s mommy is of course me. I run several Sims sites, one of them being SimsNetwork (SimsNetwerk). We don’t know of any Sims famous webmasters as a couple who got a baby. So that basically makes us the proud parents of the first famous Sims baby.
22. I dislike certain profile websites like IMVU, MeetYourMessenger and Hyves. I also dislike MySpace, don’t use it often. But I am on MySpace sometimes because of some of my friends. I hate people inviting me over and over again on the above mentioned profile sites. I will not join them.
23. I used to have a PDA in stead of a normal cell phone. But it kind of broke down on me. And my 2yr subscription ended early this (2008) year. I will get a new PDA one day. But right now I don’t even have a normal cell phone.

57. But I’d rather have a new iMac, you know, one that I can use.
