11 Facts about me:
1. I secretly love those cheesy high school dramatic books and movies that are usually pretty dumb, but hey... they are my guilty pleasure. I love a good dramatic romance every now and again.
2. I am obsessed with any kind of animal... especially if it's a baby animal. Sometimes I think they are so cute that I can't help but cry. I can't handle their cuteness!
3. Whenever I see a cute pregnant girl, I secretly wish that I was pregnant. This is recent... and I'm not sure that I like it. Don't tell Jason.
4. I have 6 Brothers, and it shows. Sometimes I feel more like a boy than a girl... I'm annoyingly competitive. Seriously, I hate losing more than anything. If people are giving me trouble (like the lady downstairs) my first thought isn't, "how can I peacefully resolve this?" It is, "what is the best possible prank I can do to this person?" I'm not proud of it, but it's the way it is. I love everything outdoors that most girls hate. Camping? Count me in. We don't have a tent? Perfect! I can see the stars better! Let's jump off that really high cliff into the water? Duh! You don't have to ask me twice... No trespassing? I don't even know what that means... haha see what I mean? Whatever.. my life is fun.
5. I have the meanest sweet tooth. It's brutal. I have some serious self control, let me tell you.
6. There's nothing I love to do more than travel. I love any kind of travel. It's become quite the obsession, and I wish that I had a less expensive hobby.
7. The ocean is one of the most mysterious places to me, and I am seriously mesmerized by it. I love love love spending time in the ocean! Deep water scares me a little... but it is also part of the reason that I keep going deeper like I have something to prove to myself. Being in deep ocean water is thrilling. Also, I want to go on a deep sea fishing trip (Boyish)... and I wish so badly that mermaids were real. (Girlish)
8. I've always wanted to be an anthropologist and archaeologist because I'm obsessed with history, travel, and learning about different cultures.
9. I'm deathly afraid of any and all types of bugs. They are creepy and gross and I especially hate hearing a bug buzz past my ear. It's worse than nails on a chalk board!
10. I've always thought I'd be a good actress if it weren't for my stage fright. I really do think I'd be good at it though.
11. I'm the cuddliest person on the planet. Nothin' like a good cuddle, am I right?
And now, the questions:
1. Favorite childhood memory?
My favorite childhood memory is of a Christmas long ago. I can't remember my exact age, but I couldn't be any older than 8. I really wanted a mouse for Christmas.. don't ask me why, I just wanted a mouse for Christmas like a normal child. My older brother Daniel and I were like BEST FRIENDS. I wanted to be just like him. Anyway, he being the best big brother in the whole world, spent a whole day in the garage setting a trap to catch a mouse for me for Christmas. I didn't know a thing about it, but Christmas morning, I pulled a mason jar out of my stocking with holes in the lid and a little white mouse inside! I was so excited! My mom was mortified. Daniel Proudly exclaimed that he'd caught the mouse for me. My mom was mean (in my childlike mind) and didn't let me keep it. That was the most thoughtful Christmas gift that I've ever received.
2. What is your hobby?
I'm always looking for new hobby's. Most of my hobby's include other people though, like everything I like to do outside, biking, hiking, swimming, rock climbing, slack lining, you name it and I obviously love it! Since I've been out here I've had to look for new hobby's that I can do on my own. Lately, I've been a little more invested in my camera and learning more about photography and videography. I have also taken more of an interest in crafting, even though that was always something I have done with my mom.
