So, this blog was requested from my wonderful, fantastic, amazing, World Race Squad!!
September Route 3 REPRESENT!!!!
Okay, so… here it goes, random things about me!
(I didn't quite make it to 50 llike some of you did. lol)
- I love Jesus with my entire heart.
- I LOVE FROYO. Aka, frozen yogurt, and if you haven’t tried it, you need to NOW! Mango froyo with raspberry syrup, granola and strawberries and kiwis = perfection.
- Most of the time I’m a health freak, but I go through days of eating nothing but junk.
- I have the biggest sweet tooth in the world.
- If you ask anyone that knows me they will tell you I’m a Starbucks addict. It’s so bad that I am a gold card member. (Dad, I bet you’re so proud of me!)
- I adore iced coffee and tea.
- I want to try sweet tea from the REAL South, not just Chick-fil-A. (By the way, I HATE fast food, but Chick-fil-A has my heart.)
- I feel lost when my nails aren’t painted.
- I'm a HUGE goofball.
- I have some pretty odd phobias – drinking out of plastic cups without a straw is the equivalent of nails on a chalkboard to me, spiders give me goosebumps like no one’s business and when I am forced to drive next to a semi my knuckles turn white from gripping the steering wheel (I feel like my life flashes before me every time… haha)
- I am the BIGGEST…procrastinator…known…to…man. It’s so bad.
- I love kids so much and I adore working with adolescents. God has given me such a heart for young people!
- I’m not a big fan of country music and I know there are a lot of you on my squad from the South, so I’m assuming “ya’ll” like it? You’ll have to teach me because Yuma, AZ just didn’t help me in loving it. 🙂
- I have some SWEET dance moves, almost as awesome as Napoleon Dynamite's, but I’m not quite there yet. I’m working on it. I can even shuffle, check ittttt! (Sort of)
- I love my family SO MUCH!
- I’m extremely convinced that I have adult ADD.
- I cannot multitask for the life of me. Aren’t women supposed to be blessed with that skill?! I didn’t get it.
- Sunsets never get old to me. I have yet to see one better than an Arizonan sunset. I’m so in love!
- I want a husky someday.
- I’ve thought of moving to Seattle, but for some reason I think I will end up in Georgia after the race and to be honest, I haven’t the slightest clue why.
- I REALLY want to backpack the USA to each State. You guys wanna join me?!
- I’m super short.
- I LOVE to run! And hike! Any type of exercise!
- I've run 2 half marathons and participated in 2 obstacle courses – Warrior Dash and Tough Mudder! SO fun!
- I adore the outdoors. I find that being in the wilderness really allows me to focus on how truly big God really is and how amazing His creations are. I tend to get lost in it all!
- I love camping! REAL camping – in the dirt, no toilets, cooking over the fire – the real deal. I love it.
- I love throwing a football around. I'm pretty clumsy when it comes to catching it, though.
- I would live on the beach if I could. As a matter of fact, I really hope our squad gets to stay on the beach this year! How SICK would that be?! In tents and with fire and whatnot?! Omg, yes.
- I have the BIGGEST heart for victims of human trafficking. Anytime I watch a video or hear about it I get so enraged and sometimes even cry, not gonna lie! Haha
- I’m a sucker for good quotes.
- I will always be a University of Arizona WILDCAT even though I will be graduating from its rival school with my masters in just 4 weeks! I will bleed blue and red for the rest of my existence on Earth!
- I’ve never really been a fan of blogging, so this year will be an adventure in that aspect of the Race. 🙂
- I cannot WAIT to travel and just help people. It’s been a huge dream of mine.
- I’ve been skydiving, bungee jumping and river boarding.
- I think this is where I’m gonna stop for now. 😉
I’m already in love with all of you World Race fam and I haven’t even met you yet. I'm SUPER stoked to do life with “yall” for a whole year! I feel like I have to start saying that now since so many of you say it! 😉
