A Few Basic Facts As An Introduction

1. Books are my life! As of today I own 215 books, not including the 341 books on my Kindle. I would love to have a library in my home one day. Books have always been my escape. They've helped me deal with any hard times I've experienced. Also, I just really love reading :)

2. I really wish my job was to travel the world. I've been to a lot of places, but there's still so many places in the world left to see and experience.

3. I love sports. Watching and playing, although I'm not that great at any of them. Soccer, football, basketball, and baseball are my favorites.

4. I grew up reading Harry Potter. As well as watching the movies. I am a huge Harry Potter fanatic! I will always stick up for the brilliancy that is Harry Potter. And yes, I totally own a wand.

One of the best experiences of my life

5. Along with Harry Potter, I'm obsessed with Doctor Who! So far I've only seen the new Doctor Who, but eventually I want to watch the original. Until I do, Nine is my favorite Doctor so far!

6. I love coffee, tea, beer, and wine. I have no favorite there. Just whatever I'm in the mood for is what I'll drink!

7. I am no where near a professional chef, but I do love to cook and experiment with recipes. Although I don't really like to cook for other people because I'm always worried that they won't like it. Plus I'm one of the least pickiest eaters I know so I like pretty much everything I make.

8. Just like pretty much everyone, my family is very important to me. I hope to be able to move closer to them eventually so I don't have to spend such long periods of time without seeing them.



9. My dog has pretty much saved my life. If I didn't have him in my life I would've given up. He kept me going when I wanted to give in. Plus he's the most adorable dog ever!

10. I'm learning to become more confident in myself (maybe not my cooking). I spent the first half of 2015 depressed and feeling miserable. I was always negative about life. It caused me a lot of stress and problems, especially in the relationship I was in. But I'm getting back on track to being the person I was before some problems happened.

Well that's a little bit about me. Hopefully I continue to update this and it helps me remember how awesome I am and that my life isn't so bad.

Me :)
