This blog is just beginning. It's empty and wordless; but not for long! Soon it will hold thoughts, dreams, successes, photographs, craft projects, and tales of my daily life. To start this blog off, here are 20 things about me:
1. Everyday I dream about living on some land with a big garden, lots of livestock, a cozy house, and a family to live there with.
2. I dislike school, but Lord willing, I'll graduate will my Photography degree Spring 2015!!!
3. I have two birthdays; 04/08/1994 and 09/24/2006. (If you have questions feel free to ask!)
4. My favorite color is green! Although I don't really dislike any color.
5. My best subject in school was math, but never liked doing it. I'm a slow reader and have never been able to write well! Therefore; I take photographs! Lots and lots of them!
6. This is my third blog I've started. (My first was on hatching baby chicks for my senior project and the second being my mission trip to Bulgaria in 2013.)
7. I love to bake. But if I cook, I need a recipe or dinner will never be made.
8. I spend my Winters hunting with my dad, my Springs taking way too many photos of flowers, my Summers being outside not coming in till it's dark, and my Falls drinking tea non-stop while eating apples and nutella. Because of this, I have no favorite season.
9. My first memory is of moving into our house in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA, and don't remember a day before that. (Which included the last miles of our move from IN to CA.)
10. My favorite number is 10.
11. I have had numerous pets in my life including cats, fish, hamsters, bunnies, a hedgehog, a gecko, chickens, and dogs.
12. I have red hair and inherited it from my Papaw (Dad's dad). It skipped a generation and I'm the only grandchild out of 8 that got it, and I was the last born!
13. On my hunting/fishing license it says that I'm 4' 11" and weigh 93 lbs. And I have no doubt that information is no less than 5 years old. (I guess I should update it...someday!)
14. I lost my two front teeth on the same night within a few weeks of Christmas when I was a child...not even joking you!
15. I recently chopped 14 inches off of my hair and donated it. I still miss my long hair!
16. I'm doing a half-marathon at the end of September and I haven't ran more than 5 days in the last year. Training will begin this month.
17. Even though I'm getting my photography degree, I really just want to be a farmer of some sort and do photography on the side. Although I really have no idea what I will actually do with my life once I graduate!
18. I started my photography business officially in August of 2013 and two weeks later photographed one of my closest friends' wedding!
19. I didn't fall in love with photography until I photographed my now brother-in-law proposing to my sister. (That's a whole post in itself.)
AND 20. I still watch Disney movies on a weekly basis and I blame it on all the babysitting I do! Yet I am not ashamed because they just don't make movies like they used to.
Wow, that took a lot longer than I expected. That's not my story, but you can get a gist of what my life is like. This blog will be about my daily life so I assume you'll get to know me better just by following along! Until then, those 20 facts might just define me.
