I am a 20 something lover of food, health, animals and photography.
I also have a great appreciation for beer and wine.
And I enjoy a good cupcake now and again.
I am currently a senior at Park University in Kansas City. I am one of the editors of the school newspaper; my major is photojournalism but I have recently discovered I hate my major. Okay so I haven't recently discovered this. I may have known for awhile. I received a full ride so instead of going to a school which offers a major I had a passion for I decided to take the free education.
Who could blame me?
So now I live in a
Just waiting to see where life takes me.
- I went to a small school in the middle of nowhere. My graduating class was something around 150. You know your from a small town when they put the graduating class on the wall.
- I was in color guard for all four years. I hated and loved it all at the same time and still miss it to this day. I have dreams I am still out there marching on the field.
- I have been to France twice and Italy Once. The tour group I went with was through my high school French class.
- When it was time for college I was accepted into an equally small school. I received a full ride. This is also the time I LOST the freshman 15. I never realized how heavy I was until I got to college. I started working out by running the track at night then I did taebo religiously. I finally worked my way to the gym. I ran 4 miles almost daily.
- I also met a pretty cute boy. I had told a friend I thought he was cute and so what did this friend do? He told him. Three years later I am living with him
in our shoe-box apartment.
Around this time my miles increased from four miles to six miles. My boyfriend urged me to sign up for a marathon with him. Half way through training he dropped out but I continued to pound out the steps day by day. I thought I better run one race before the marathon since I had never raced before. This was my first 5k.
10/10/10 Chicago Marathon!
I had never been to Chicago so running the city was exciting. The spectators gave you so much courage and dedication.
Now it is my senior year. I am still running a few races here and there but I am mainly focused on what is my next big step after college.
