day 1 of the 30 Day blog challenge

Okay I’m jumping on the bandwagon for numerous reasons.  1) I haven’t been cooking alot lately, so my Whatcha Makin Wednesdays has fallen by the waist side but I will cook again! I’m just taking a break my boyfriend works out of town some times and so I don’t find the need to make extravagant meals for myself, I opt for chips and salsa sometimes.  2) We got sad news the other day so until I’m happy about what happened or get a better answer I’m not Jolly Jenn. 3) Why not try to blog for 30 days right?

 

Away we go!

Hi I’m slightly obsessed with this photo it’s my new blogger profile photo!

15 Interesting Facts About Me

1. I’m Chinese! Yes I love this fact about me.. I’m half Chinese and half German for you new readers who might not know about me already.

2. I played competitive soccer for 12 years.

3. I’m left handed! But I do everything with my right, including using scissors, golfing, throwing balls etc.  Except I’m left side dominate for shooting guns. I’m a pusher not a hooker though… Ha

“Fist aka the Pusher”

“ The Hooker” - I’m not a hooker! LMAO

4. I shoot guns, I date a hunter! What that means? I became a hunter! I got my hunter safety certification last spring and shot my 1st pheasant this past spring.

5. I’m a big sister to my little brother who is about to turn 18, we are 8 years apart.

6. I don’t like swimming in lakes or oceans.  I mean I like to but then if I stop and think about the fish that are right below me I freak out.

7. I was allergic to salt water until about 13 I would have to take Benadryl before going in the water so I wouldn’t break out in hives.

8. I recently started up my own side business making customized kids clothes, hair accessories and more (Click on MY ETSY at the top to see). 

9. I LOVE frozen yogurt I’m slightly obsessed I always end up buying more than my boyfriend every time and it is always a running joke between us who’s fro-yo weighs more.

10. I also have a running debate with my boyfriend on how you “finish” dinner.  Do you put the napkin on the plate? aka throw the towel in, or do you position the knife and fork in the position of ten o’clock to four o’clock.  I’m all for the fork and knife, he’s for throwing the towel in.  We do surveys at restaurants and see what happens.. They ALWAYS grab the towel first! ARGH!!

11. I bite my nails.. Right now though they are actually long which is impossible for me.

12. I got my first pedicure when I was in college like Sophomore year.

13. I obviously am not a natural blonde.. Getting my hair colored tomorrow!

14. I can speak a little Cantonese! I went to Chinese school for summer time when I was little.

You look so different with darker hair, but I love it! I'd love to go to a shooting range once in my life. And i had no idea you played soccer. So cool!

Joanna said...

Such a great list! I'm Peruvian and people always think I'm half Chinese...I'll take it...my hubs thinks that's exotic :)SCORE!

Shelby Bukhenik said...

I LOL'd when I read the fist/hooker comment and I have definitely seen a lot of leftie hookers!

I think swimming in the ocean is icky because of fish too!

I am a fok/knife kind of gal, but I can see how the napkin would get picked up 1st. You can see it easier, but etiquette-wise I think they tell you the knife/fork rule.
