A Profile: Andrea

This new series is a way for me to introduce you my friends because 1. The people around you say a lot about you, and 2. They're genuinely awesome people and I just thought it would be fun to get their POVs on some matters. I'm going to ask them 10 questions, some easy and some tough, so you can get an understanding of them on a global scale- what they like, how they think, 'who they are'.

I chose Andrea for the first installment because, honestly, I couldn't think of anyone better. Apart from being an insanely good friend, she's opinionated, funny and has some kick-ass advice to spread around. I'm not gonna lie, she's kind of my shrink.

So without further ado- this is Andrea for ya (Disclaimer: These are not like dating site profiles or anything so if that's what you're looking for then move along my friend, this ain't the place for you).

Oh, and she's pretty hot too. Photo courtesy of Michele Abboud.

1. Alright, give us your full name, date of birth and one fun fact about you: Andrea Chaanine, I was born on the 27th of August and mm, one fun fact about me... All I can think of is how much I love food. And maybe that I recently got a new nickname: "Hormonella" because hormones and stuff..

2. If you could eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be and why: Sushis and pasta- they're the two foods I always always crave, and for desert cookies and ice cream always *forlorn sigh*. 

3. Do you have a movie that really touched you emotionally, and if so what is it: Actually, I'm really sensitive so if a movie is the slightest bit sad or even if it's not sad at all but reminds me of something, I'll get emotional. Fun fact; the Mamma Mia Musical made me cry. The people I was with didn't know what to do with me!

4. What are three things you always have in your purse (excluding keys, wallet and phone): *searches frantically in purse* Ok, I have an overnight lip balm from The Body Shop that's really good- it smells a little like vanilla, my matte Nars lipstick in Tonkin-the lipstick I wanted (Pigale) was actually out of stock and this one is the closest shade, albeit slightly pinker- and my Giorgio Armani sunglasses. Oh, and my rings!

5. What is your go-to look: I don't have a go-to look! I'll wake up each day and feel like something different. Sometimes it's shorts, sometimes skirts. I usually wake up with an idea of what I wanna look like that day; some days I feel like being preppy, some punkish and sometimes I'll even mix styles together.

6. What is your cure for heartbreak: Never been there yet but probably ice cream (You should know that Andrea is a heartbreaker and not the other way around).

7. What is the motto you live by: Expect anything from anyone- Not very fun but that's what I learned and it's safer to live that way.

8. What's one song that will always put you in a good mood no matter what: I don't know, I can't think of one. Most of my songs are usually pretty sad, but sometimes that's what I need to make myself feel better. I guess Three Little Birds by Bob Marley is a good one.

9. In your opinion, what are the three qualities everyone needs to possess: Generosity, Kindness and Care.

10. Any last words to finish us off? Thank you for picking me, I'm honored!
