About Me...

Here is a list of facts about me to get to know me (as my first post).

1- I absolutely LOVE sunshine.... in any way, shape, or form, it can almost always put me in a good mood.
2- My signature item is flip flops, which I wear all year long and cannot survive without (yes, I wear them throughout the entire winter too).
3- I am not a picky eater, but love almost any food... it is all just so delicious!
4- Of all the many wonderful foods I eat, French Toast is probably my favorite.  Close behind is apples, cheesecake, oranges, taco salad, home-made pizza, hawaiian haystack, chinese food, trifle, and brownies.



5-Music is one of my favorite things in the whole world.  I love playing the piano and singing, although neither of which I am very good at.  I also love almost any genre of music and listen to everything except for most rock and rap.
6- Ice cream is also one of my favorite foods.... especially with chocolate-peanut butter cups and carmel swirled into it or raspberry cheesecake!
7- Although my favorite season is summer (closely followed by spring) I love all four seasons.  I love warmth and the beginning of new life.  I love the changing of the leaves to red and orange (and the coming of the hollidays) and love seeing the snow fall.
8- When it snows for the first time, there is something about it that seems so magical, and I get so excited I can barely stand it.
9- I also feel excited when it rains and absolutely love to dance in the rain  (which is one of my very favorite things to do).  I just love the feeling of being completely drenched while twirling in the poring rain.
10- I love to do art of any kind, but especially sketching and painting.
11- I also love writing poetry and stories (although I haven't done very much).
12- My favorite juice/drink is orange juice.
13- My favorite celebrity is David Archuleta (followed by Justin Bieber)
14- My family owns two cats and a dog (plus a million other pets that have died) but I am not an animal lover.  However, I do like pet fish and birds when they don't belong to me.
15- I am fifteen and 1/2, but still don't have my permit. (Which I should be getting soon though).
16- I love to read, especially adventurous romances.
17- I am LDS!
18- I do not like spiders and snakes.... both of which give me the shivers.  I also can't stand any other kind of bug and am terribly afraid of the dark.
19- My biggest pet peeves are when people pop their knuckles or are mean for no reason.
20- This is me with my best friend... Savanna!  As you can see from the picture, I love putting my hair on top of my head or into other crazy do's.

21- I also love hanging out with my friends.
22- After going to Hawaii for spring break this year, it is now one of my favorite places ever (especially Kauai... here are some pictures from the trip.)

23- If I were to make a list of all my favorite songs, it would take a lifetime, but some of my favorites are: Elevator by David Archuleta, Count On Me by Bruno Mars, and Never Grow Up by Taylor Swift.
24- I love to play board games with my family... especially European ones.
25- By the way, other than flip flops, my next favorite shoes are probably sandals... both of which I can't stand to wear without painted toenails.
