25 Things You May Not Know About Me

1. I modeled for Toys R Us and Kids R Us when I was little.  My mom took me to Toys R Us when I was 4 years old and they were looking for disabled people that would be interested in modeling, so she signed me up.

2. When I really like a song I will play it over and over until I don't like it anymore.  I know it is very strange lol.

3. I am a stickler for spelling things correctly, especially common words. It drives me insane when people spell common words incorrectly.  

4. I have been living in the same house my entire life. The only time I moved was when I lived in a dorm for 2 years in college.

5. I have been walking with crutches since the 2nd grade. I still remember that day.  Prior to that, I walked with a walker, which had a little basket in the front :)

6.  When I was in high school. I was in two of the school plays, "Grease" and "Damn Yankees." 

7. I have sensitive hearing and I am afraid of a lot of loud noises.

8.  I don't smoke. I never have and I never will.

9.  I have been dancing since the age of 3, but it didn't really become a passion of mine until I was a teenager.

10.  I am right-handed

11. I had alligator when I was in Myrtle Beach years ago. It was actually really good. It tastes like chicken.

12. Speaking of Myrtle Beach, it is my favorite place. I could swim in the ocean for hours because the water is so warm and a lot calmer than it is up here.

13.  I don't know how to ride a regular bike, but I used to have a bike that I could pedal with my arms.

14. My all time favorite song is "Under the Bridge" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. 

15. I used to write stories in a Lisa Frank binder.  I hope we still have it somewhere lol.

16.  I have to listen to music when I am doing something important or if I need to focus on something. I once looked up facts about Spina Bifida and it said that people with SB listen to music to stay focused on what they are doing. I am listening to music right now while I am writing this blog. 

17.  One of my biggest dreams is to go to Europe.

18. I have never been able to fall asleep in a moving vehicle.

19. I miss 90s Nickelodeon

20. If I had to live on one food for the rest of my life it would be pizza.

21.  I want to be an Academic Advisor in a college because I really connected with my advisors in college. I was given so much of support and I want to provide the support for others.

22.  I also want to dance in some professional capacity.

23.  I really don't like eggs.

24. I don't have a disability in my dreams. It's the weirdest thing.

25. I am so excited to become an aunt. :)
