7 things about me:
1-I was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. As far as I'm concerned, it is not a mistake by the lake, but one of the greatest cities out there! My entire family still lives there-as well as many of my friends. I try to get home to visit whenever I can.
2-I met my husband on the internet. Yep. Eleven years ago now-but we were just two crazy kids who met in a chat room on AOL (you remember those days?) and really hit it off. We talked online and on the phone almost everyday for a year and a half until we were finally able to meet in person. Once we met-that was it. We had to make it work. It was long distance at first, but that wasn't good enough. I've been living in Indiana for almost 8 years now. :)
3-I went to Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, where I majored in Communications (Public Relations and Journalism). One of my biggest regrets is not finishing my program there. BUT-had I stayed there and finished, my life might be completely different. The biggest difference-I don't know that I'd be married to my amazing husband and living in Indiana. So I guess I made the right choice by leaving there.
4-I was a band geek. Yep. In high school, I was in every band you could be in and I was even the president of my schools Marching Band my senior year. Head geek. I played clarinet and saxophone. I wouldn't trade those years for anything.
5-I had a breast reduction. It's been a little over 5 years now, but it was so worth it and one of the best decisions that I've ever made.
6-I worry about everything. Seriously. I think my worry is completely irrational a lot of the time, but I don't know how to make myself stop worrying. I worry about things that I can't control and things that I can control but don't know how to. It causes me a lot of anxiety.
7-I act like I don't care-but I am very concerned about what people think about me. I don't know why.
I don't know if those are good things about me or not-they are just the first things that popped into my head.
Okay-lets see if I can do this part :)
