11 Random Facts about myself:

1. My birthday is December 28th...3 days after Christmas and 3 days before New Years
2. I really love the combination of Diet Coke and cheddar Goldfish crackers. I could eat those all day long! 
3. Before becoming a teacher, I wanted to be a Speech Pathologist. After 2 semesters of classes, I realized I wanted to work more with children, pushing me towards Early Childhood Education! 
4. I was on my middle school's morning News program. I LOVED it. I mostly worked in the back, creating the show's titles, transitions, script, taking videos, etc. I even was awarded a scholarship upon graduation from the program!
5. I have never colored my hair. Yup....this is my natural color. I have toyed with the idea of getting highlights, but I ultimately go against it. I just really like my hair :)
6. I was given a stuffed animal dog for Christmas when I was about 6 (Ginger). I loved this stuffed dog so much that my Pops promised if I could find a dog just like it, he would buy it. Guess what that 6 year old did? She found that dog and guess what that dad did? He kept his promise!! 
7. I can't go to bed at night unless I have a bottle of water next to my bed. It's probably psychological, but it always has to be there! 
8. I have known at least 5 of my great-grandparents! I was lucky enough to know 4 of them very well, spending many holidays with them. I loved being able to have such strong role models in my life. 
9. I use to bite my nails. An awful, awful habit. It wasn't until my Pops offered me $100 bucks to stop that I actually did. Ever wonder why I always have painted nails?? Having painted nails helps me not bite them :)
10. I really like indexing. It is almost addictive! I grew up watching my grandpa do it and started doing it myself about 2 years ago. 
11. I have been fortunate enough to visit over 10 countries. I went on a study abroad and have some other opportunities to travel abroad. I love experiencing new places! Here's my list so far: England, Scotland, France, Monaco, Italy, Spain, Tunisia, Malta, Corsica, and Mexico. This will soon change.....Belize, Grand Cayman, and Honduras...here I come!!
