Monday, November 25, 2019



1. I have one sibling , a younger brother. We're seven years a part.
2. I’m a member  of Kappa Delta Pi.
3. I've always known that I wanted to be a teacher and spent all my childhood years collecting books for my one day classroom.
4. I am the biggest introvert. I would rather stay home than be around a crowd. Also I’d prefer to listen than to talk.
5. I've worn the same 2 perfumes for the last 7 years. Clinique "Happy" and Jlo's "Glow".
6. I absolutely love traveling. I am in a new city every week or weekend whether its for my job or for pleasure.
7. I am always hot when everyone else is cold. I keep blankets laid out on my couch for guests when they come over. Everyone describes my apartment as Antarctica lol Yes, I sleep with fans on during winter months.
8. I have an addiction with podcasts and audio books. I listen to podcasts more than music. I’m loving  Crime Junkies right now.
9. I am more secretive than I'd like to admit. I've always had a habit of keeping things that mean the most to me private.
10. I truly enjoy LEARNING! I love going to workshops, conferences, etc. I'll be the first to admit that I have more book smart than sense :p. No street smart whatsoever.
11. I am deathly afraid of anything that flies (birds, butterflies, moths, etc). Anytime I go in pet stores, I steer farrrrrrrrr away from the parakeets and parrots. In high school on a band trip, I was chased around and ATTACKED by a flock of birds in an open door restaurant. I nearly ran into the restaurant's low dangling chandelier running from them. I've never fully recovered.
12. I love scary movies.
13. Weighted blankets have been such a game changer for me when it comes to sleeping and helps my insomnia.
14. After years of dreaming of the exact puppy breed, color, etc I've finally got the pup of my dreams. Currently puppy proofing my home.
15. I got the chicken pops when I was in the 3rd grade. I remember my mom bathing me in oatmeal and telling me not to scratch. Well I did. I still have a chicken pop bump on top of my right shoulder.
16. TMI WARNING butttttt I am such a free spirit at home. 99.9% of the time I'm in my birthday suit until I have guests over. Then I have to put on clothes. :p
17. I'm a true EMPATH. I truly sense people just by standing next to them. With that said, I often need time to recharge. When I'm around people for an ample amount of time, I become physically and emotionally drained and or physically sick.  I literally have to have a full day alone to recover. It's a blessing and a curse.
18. I can always sense when someone being untruthful . I was in a room of no shy of 15 people. We were playing the game 2 truths and a lie. I've never met any of them before and didn't know their names. I was able to point to each person until I got to the 15th and told them the lie they said. Everyone faces showed how creeped out they were.
19. I gravitate towards water, oceans, etc. Water is so cleansing and refreshing to my soul. It's probably why my getaway is the ocean. My water bill usually reflects the excessive amount of long baths or showers I take.
20. My home is my safe haven. Incense, candles, or diffusers are always burning. I absolutely love Egyptian musk incense.
21. I  loveeeee Nerds rope candy! I never leave Walmart or a gas station without trying to find Nerds rope candy. I was even more thrilled when I found out that Sonic has slushies with Nerds. I usually order the grape or Ocean blast with Nerds.
22. I am claustrophobic. Being in small closed spaces is an anxiety attack WAITING to happen for me.
23. I am very strong willed and goal oriented. Once I set my eyes on something, trying to convince me other wise won't change anything. I go for it!
24. I'm a FIRM believer in doing people right. You reap what you sow. Speaking kindly of others. I tend to see people positive traits more so than their negative ones.
25. My favorite meal is pasta. I reallyyyyy love spaghetti. It will always be my favorite.
26. I've become a Vodka girl. I love pouring a splash of Ketel One's grapefruit vodka into my grapefruit juice. So refreshing. Don't knock it until you try it!
27. I have Mortans toe which means that I have long toes. My second toe is so much more noticeably longer than my big toe. I have greek feet.
28.  I have an obsession with putting Vaseline on my lips and eye brows through out the day. I keep a jar of Vaseline on my night stand.
29. I truly value my time. Therefore, if I'm not learning anything, engaged, or gaining any insight of something, I'm pretty much overrrr it and it's really hard to reel me back in. RECLAIMING MY TIME.
30. I've probably been in more hotels than the average person. No, I'm not a prostitute.
31. Humility and kindness are character traits that I admire the most of a person.
