5 Random Facts and Selfie Photo(s)

I had to look back for selfie photos of me... I take a lot of selfie photos with Colin but not many that are just of me.
 
April 2012 in Washington D.C.

I looked back through some of my pictures and found a few that I took of myself... And I promise at the end of the challenge I will take a selfie on the day of the post!

Now for 5 random facts about myself...

May 2013
1. Most of you probably already know this... Because I think my only readers... If I have any are all people I know personally... But I am #2 child in a line of 7 kids... And yes, we all have the same mom and dad! All my siblings are my best friends and have helped shape me into who I am today!

 2. I was once in school to be a Physical Therapy Assistant... But I dropped out... And then I tried X-ray Tech for all of two seconds until I didn't get into the VERY small program.  It's all good though, I have since gone on to get my Bachelors in Business and I'm almost done with my Master's in Health Care Administration. So don't be afraid of changing majors! But I am forever thankful for my hardest classes ever of Human A&P 1 and 2 and my medical terminology classes because they have helped me tremendously over the last 10 years since I took them.

3. On that same note, Colin's doctor thought I was a new PT or tech at his spinal cord injury rehab hospital when I was going through my training because I had such great form and medical knowledge.

4. When I say I want some Mexican food it really means I want chips and salsa and queso dip! Yep, I usually fill up on those before I even get to the actual Mexican food.

5. I can count on one hand the times that I have ever worn make up... I don't wear it at all. I won't even know where to start. I grew up being told I was beautiful so I didn't ever feel I needed it to feel beautiful... But I don't think there is anything wrong with those who wear makeup.

Outlet through blogging... and a challenge!

I am not the writer in the family at all. But I have found that putting my thoughts on paper is an outlet of sorts for me.

While I have my other blogs where I write about the adventures Colin and I have and my 101 things on 1001 days blog I still wanted to be able to have another place... A place for things that aren't adventures and aren't on the 101 list.

So I decided to bring this blog back to life... I thought I would do that through a blog challenge!

While most blog challenges have rules and regulations you need to follow I decided I would find a list of blog post suggestions I like, then blog through the list... I don't have to follow a certain order or a certain calendar/day requirement to post. This would allow me to write without putting the pressure of keeping up with current life or the constant feeling of being behind on blogging.

So here's the list...
-Self-Portrait and 5 random facts about yourself.
