25 Things to Know About Me

• I'm the oldest of four girls, and apparently we all look alike??

• My ideal jobs are as follows: A real life Disney Princess (preferably Belle) who works at Disney full-time, a Personal Shopper, and/or a Singer who made it big off of The Voice (which I am planning on auditioning for at some point in the nearish future). HOWEVER, I will settle for being a Second Grade Teacher and/or a Daycare Provider.

• I love my husband soooooo much!! I met him during my senior year of high school when I was on the co-ed dance team with him. Originally, I didn't want a boyfriend because I thought I'd enjoy my senior year better if I was single, but he changed my mind :-)We've been together since January 24, 2010, and we got married October 13, 2012 <3 He's pretty much the most wonderful husband a girl could ask for :-)
• My kitten and my bunny are adorable. I love them a ridiculous amount. They're my babies :-)
• Favorite color is purple. It's just the best.
• I am passionate about football, and I like video games as well as scary movies. I guess I have tomboy tendencies even though I'm incredibly girly most of the time
• I love music... [Pretty much] ALL kinds of music
• Fashion is important to me, and I love to shop, which probably means it isn't a good thing for me to be working in retail... Oh well :-P
• My closet space is too small. It will ALWAYS be too small. It's a problem.
• I will always cry while watching the last part of Steel Magnolias, but then I will always laugh immediately after. "You just missed a once-in-a-lifetime chance to take a whack at Weezer" :-)
• I'm pretty blind. Like really bad. It's a problem.

• In an ideal world, I would have like 10 tattoos already, but that may take a while. I know exactly what I want for each one and where I want them. Three of the tattoos may or may not involve Harry Potter, Pride and Prejudice, and Belle... ;-)
• According to my husband, I can "sing really well" and I'm a "badass"... The first one is pretty true. I'm definitely a pretty decent singer. NBD. And the second one is partially true. While I did take kickboxing and strength training classes for 16 weeks straight, I'm not sure if that qualifies me as a "badass"

• I love love love love LOVE mango smoothies!! Like really bad!! Especially if they're made with gelato instead of soft serve. That's literally the best
• I want to honeymoon to France, Italy, England, or Harry Potter World. I'm serious about that last option, but my husband would rather go somewhere more honeymoonish.
• The best pet combo for me would be to have two bunnies, two kittens, and two puppies. I'm working on it ;-)
• The way to my heart is hazelnut Pirouettes with Nutella. Really really REALLY unhealthy, but an amazing combo nonetheless!!
• I want to live in Burlington, Vermont after my husband leaves/retires from the Air Force with a remodeled Victorian house that has a bay window for me to sit and read books in, a huge claw foot tub that I can soak in, a stone fireplace, a library full of books, and an amazing walk-in closet. That's not too much to ask for, right? ;-)
• I'm a read-a-holic. Once I start a book, I will literally not put it down until it's done, which means I tend to finish books within a day or two. I've been known to read up to 800 pages a day. NBD
• HARRY POTTER IS MY FAVORITE BOOK SERIES!!!! I've read every book about 10 times, and I've waited 10+ hours in line for the movie premieres in the freezing winter and blistering summer.
• I can play alto/soprano/tenor saxophone, as well as a little guitar, piano ukulele, snare drum, mallets, and autoharp. However, singing is what I really love to do :-)
• Crocs are ugly. So are socks with sandals. Don't wear them. Ever.
• I don't wear much jewelry. Everything I wear has been given to me by my husband, and I would completely fall apart if anything ever broke or went missing.
• Having a pet penguin, giraffe, otter, owl, monkey, and/or hedgehog would literally just make me the happiest person in the world.
• I am a pro at untangling necklaces/bracelets. No joke. Anytime a fellow Plato's employee organizes jewelry, finds a hot mess of a situation, and brings it to me, I fix it. It's a gift ;-)
