My Eleven Fun Facts
1. I was a Girl Scout of the South Jersey Pines my entire life, yes, until I graduated high school. I think they've changed the way they map out the area of the Girl Scouts, but i'm proud to be a Piney Girl Scout =) 2. I was SUCH a bad student in high school. I honestly have no idea how I made it to college haha. But now that I'm in college I have a high GPA and doing really well. I think it atributes to the fact i'm studying the subject I actually care about. (History)
3. Speaking of college, since I started college ( Fall 2010) I've changed my major 3 times!! (i'm very indecisive) At first I was an Art major ( but lets be honest, I don't want to be living in the poor house after college, so I dumped that) Then I was a Sociology major ( didn't have a clue what I wanted to do with that) and then I chose the best major, the one that makes me so happy, History. I could honestly talk about history all day. Give me a country to talk about and I'll give you their war, economic and social history from 1300 to now.
4. I'm mixed. On my moms side i'm : Blackfoot Native American, British, Dutch. dads side: African American, English, Aboriginal Australian. People always ask me where I get my tan, and i'm like " uhhh, my parents?!" haha. But yes, i'm mixed, and I love having so many cultures to associate with.
5. My signature drink is a sex on the beach. I can't STAND it when people make it wrong.
6. Speaking of tanning, I tan like nobodies business in the summer. I can go from a yellow pale girl to a thanksgiving turkey-brown in a few hours. Just bring me to the shore, i'll show you =)
7. Since May 2011 I've lost 40lbs, i'm really proud of myself =)
8. I was raised a strict vegetarian my whole life. My mother was a vegetarian since the 70s, and never ate pork due to religious reasons ( old testament, even though we're Christians and not Jewish.) I just started eating Chicken, Turkey and seafood last summer. I don't think I can ever eat red meat or pork. It just skeeves me out.
9. I speak semi fluent Deutsch =)
10. I'm a HUGE baseball fan. Phillies only though. If they aren't in the world series, don't talk to me until the series is over. I will be in a terrible mood! haha
11. As much as I love Jersey, I want to move to the Carolina's when I get married and settle down, it's so lovely there.
Taylor's Questions!
1. When you were in elementary school, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Oh gosh. I wanted to be a number of things. I wanted to be a Pop star singer, lawyer and oceanographer (because I love dolphins). The oceanographer phase actually lasted from elementary school to early high school.
2. Now that you're grown up/almost grown up, what is your dream career that you are pursuing or wanting to pursue?
I want to be curator at a history museum. I always told myself that I would marry the guy who took me all the way down to D.C for a date at the Smithsonian's for a day. I could spend forever in a museum, and I think it would be fun to be the head of the museum and teach people how much fun history ( of any kind) is fun to learn.
3. What are five qualities that you require your future/hypothetical/present husband to have?
Kindness, compassion, religious, loving, and a Phillies fan =) ha.
4. If you could live anywhere in the United States, where would it be?
North or South Carolina seem so lovely. I'd also love to live in Southern California, Washington/Oregon or Maine.
5. What is one thing that you wish someone would have forewarned you about in life?
Choose your friends wisely. Just because you have a bunch of friends doesn't mean they're a bunch of good friends. Be more concerned with the quality than quantity.
6. If someone were writing a book about you, what do you think the best chapter would be about?
As of right now, my senior year of high school. I honestly had the best high school experience and went to a great high school where there really was no bullying. ( i'm serious when I say this, it was really rare. I never saw a person get bullied with my own eyes. My class were all around very accepting, good people.)
7. So you're sitting at a bar when this extremely handsome guy approaches you. He's very charming and you get along great, so you exchange numbers. As you're driving home, you are thinking about how excited you are to see him again when you suddenly see his face on a most wanted sign. What do you do?
CALL THE COPS. He could be the next Ted Bundy. If you're wanted so bad that you're on a most wanted sign, I'm assuming your the 2012 version of Ted Bundy.
8. If you could change one thing about society, what would it be?
Our expectation of beauty. It's so messed up and sad. You're never skinny enough, never pretty enough. Everyone forgets how photoshopped and airbrushed our favorite celebrities and models are on the covers of magazines.
9. List your three favorite books.
1.) Are you there Vodka? It's me, Chelsea.
2.) Crank
3.) The Perks of being a Wallflower
10. What is your favorite color highlighter?
Pink! Duh. =)
11. If you were given a loan to open a shop/boutique, what would you name it?
Oh goodness, I'm not sure, I'm not the best when it comes to witty names.
how about Rideaux en Boeuf?! ( it means high class in French)
