Getting to know me

Hi future friends and my current ones (hope you guys are reading this), my name is Fatmata and I go by many nicknames; fatty, fathead, fatso, ftk (my middle name is Tammy, i am aware of how unfortunate that is) and the list goes on. Given my list of unfortunate nicknames, you would think that I wasn't a huge fan of my name, but in fact it's the complete opposite, I really like my name. It took years, but I have come to accept and even embrace it, because I really wouldn't be me without my name.
10 things about me:

1. I LOVE LOVE candy, hence the theme and name of my blog
2. I live and breathe for books,especially scientific mysteries (i.e Michael Chrichton) and non-fiction
3. Currently a student at University of Waterloo but I will be transferring too Simon Fraser University in the Summer, majoring in Health Sciences and Human Resource Management
4. I really want a bulldog, they are soo cute
5. I use the word cute way too often for a 20 year old
6. I would do anything for my friends, family and boyfriend and I really hope they know that
7. I like tequila a little too much
8. My dream in life is to travel everywhere and anywhere, and I am off to a good start
9. I really love cooking and hope to showcase my mad skills on this blog
10. I really don't like wearing pants

I started this blog because of a recommendation from my awesome friend Lucy, who has been telling me for awhile now that I need to broadcast my thoughts, for people to read and learn and gain great knowledge because I am so wise (her words, not mine).

Hopefully I keep this up, it's going to be a fun ride!
