Getting to know me

this post was originally written here but I wanted to repost it (with a few additions)


Things you should know about me if we are going to be BFF:



I have a serious owl collection

I despise bananas, pickles and cucumbers

I do not watch scary movies or anything that involves animal cruelty

I cannot stand whistling


I moved to Austin from Dallas in August 2008 and thought I would only be here a year


I have never had a cigarette or tried any illegal substance

I really like Colorado Bulldogs but I rarely drink

I would choose sour candy over chocolate any day


I first talked to Allen on myspace
(our story can be found here and here)

I will go days without washing my hair

I have a deviated septum and I dream of having it fixed one day soon

I have only ever had 3 boyfriends

I'm a beauty school drop-out

I wear fake nails because I'm a habitual nail biter



In 5th grade I was hit in the head (hard) with a softball and I swear it's the reason for my lack of memory

I'm homesick every day

I'm a procrastinator

If I read in a car, I get carsick but I suffer through it on our drives to Dallas

I paid off my first ever car and then turned around and bought a new one


I have 20/20 vision

My dogs are my children (for right now)


I cannot stand the smell of gasoline, bananas or sharpies

I have two tattoos that I really wish I had never gotten

I have asthma that is severly allergy induced


Allen and I got engaged on Christmas day 2010
(engagement story can be found here)


I could listen to country music all day everyday without interuption

I had an extremely short haircut back in my early teens that I hate seeing photos of til this day

I'm obsessed with my Canon Rebel xsi but I'm not very good with it in complete manual yet



So what would I need to know about you?



Have a great Tuesday y'all!

I love this post! I'd choose sour candy over chocolate, I HATE scary movies and cucumbers, but LOVE pickles! I used to have fake nails, but now am too lazy to go to the salon to get them done.

I'll do my "get to know you" post next week!

Can't wait to meet you!
