Stuff You Need to Know..

If you’re going to be reading my blog, it might be good to have you know a thing or two about me, just to make it a little more fun. This post was inspired by Marquis’post, over at Simply Clarke (which, by the way, is a sweet, sweet little blog that really brightens my day – you should definitely check it out!).

So without further ado, here’s some super interesting stuff about yours truly:

§  I am obsessed with flossing my teeth. Seriously, it’s like one of my favorite things.

§  Pitch Perfect is probably one of my top three favorite movies of all time. I've seen it way more times than I’d like to admit, and could probably quote the entire thing start to finish if pressed.

§  I am a middle child.

§  I am really interested in a lot of things (psychology, photography, cooking), but still haven’t found a passion.

§ My daddy (in the picture above) is the best person I have ever known. 

§  I keep my toenails short, literally as short as they can be. It totally grosses me out if I can feel my nail on top of my skin at all.

§  I hate working out on purpose, but adore things like long walks with the boyfriend, or dancing in my living room that give me a sneaky workout.

§  Red velvet is one of my favorite flavors. One of these days I’m going to make the perfect red velvet cupcake.

§  I’m a technical idiot. I have no idea how to do a blog design, how to do any kind of website coding, etc., so I’m just trying to figure it all out as I go along.

§  I have lived in four different states since I got my driver’s license, but have only ever gotten a license in two of them. Whoops.

§  My favorite beer is Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy, and I hate that it’s only a seasonal flavor.

§  I was homeschooled my whole entire life up until college.

§  I love being organized. Walking into places like The Container Store or Ikea gives me a huge thrill, just to think of all the possibilities.

§  Barnes and Noble is my happy place. I like small, neighborhood bookstores too, but there’s just something about the smell of B&N that calms my spirit every time.

§  I hate feet, I think they’re gross.

§  I can roll my tongue.

§  Football is my favorite sport to watch and I like the Chicago Bears and the Minnesota Vikings….even though they’re in the same division.

§  I like playing around with fonts.

§  I almost never wear makeup, and when I do, it’s pretty much only on my eyes, and only a little bit.

§  I am almost thirty and I still sleep with a stuff animal – an adorable puppy named Jake.

§  I have no sense of style whatsoever.

§  I love looking back at planners I’ve used and seeing how busy I was, and remembering all the things I did in a day.

§  I spent two months in the Philippines on a missions trip when I was in high school.

§  I love, love, love little babies.

§  Talking on the phone is one of my least favorite things.

§  F.R.I.E.N.D.S is my all-time favorite tv show.

§  I hate any kind of math beyond simple addition/subtraction/division/multiplication.

§  I love wearing hats, but I’m super particular about how my hair is styled underneath them.

§  When I was taking my driver’s test, I turned left when the instructor told me to turn right, because I can never remember which one’s which. I aced the test anyway.

§  I really like being tan, but am always nervous about tanning or laying out in the sun because there is skin cancer in my family, and it tends to be hereditary.

§  I’m a strong supporter of the US military, especially the Marine Corps and the Navy, since I have family and a lot of friends in both branches.

§  I like painting my own nails, but my right hand always ends up looking like a three year old did it, because I’m ridiculously non-ambidextrous.

§  I am really uncoordinated, and manage to scrape/cut/bruise myself all the time without even realizing it until much later.

§  My longest-lasting life dream is to tour Europe.
