8 Random Things About Me

I did this one pretty quickly.

1. I love formatting office documents. I could do it all day. I’ve undoubtedly wasted way too many work hours lining up paragraphs and shading cells and creating beautifully bulleted lists.
2. I remember the first time I ate Fettuccine Alfredo. I was three years old and with my family at Epcot in Disney World. It immediately became my favorite food for the next 10 years.
3. I considered the following majors at some point during my education: Middle School Education, Psychology and Counseling, Graphic Design, Small Business, Journalism, and Marketing. I settled instead on Mass Communications with a television production focus. I still don’t know if I made the right decision.
4. During my senior year of high school, most of my closest friends were juniors.
5. I prefer singing into my thumb to busting out the old hairbrush when I feel the need for a little personal karaoke time. I did this the other day while driving because Band of Gold came on the radio. It was late at night and I didn’t really think anyone could see me but I forgot that my passenger side window was down. When I looked over, there was a dude in the car next to me chuckling. I was mildly embarrassed, but decided that since I’d never see him again, I should really just ignore him and enjoy my sing-along. I mean how often does Band of Gold come on the radio? Not often.
6. I have a consistently accurate intuition regarding people who are close to me.
7. I grew up going to church but had never been an official member of one until several months ago.
8. I find Teen Girl Squad to be endlessly quotable.

• In the thrift store: “These clothes smell like grandmas.”
• At the Chinese buffet: “Three spring rolls please”… “Ow my stomach lining!”
• After meeting a vertically challenged dude: “Tompkins, how do you be so short?”
• After an injury: “My blood hurts.”
• Whenever: “How you lookin’?” SOOOOO GOOD!”
