5 Things About Me

My niece, boyfriend, and me. :)

Hi! :) I've been blogging for a little over a month now and it occurred to me that I really haven't shared anything about myself other than my love of fashion and makeup, so I thought I should do that today. 

1. I think one of the biggest things that makes me who I am is where I am from. I was born, raised, and still live in Eastern Kentucky, USA. I had to be specific with the region of Kentucky that I am from because I think we got a lot of negativity that comes along with our region. It is a poorer area of the country, but not all of us are living in poverty here and not all of us are addicted to Mountain Dew (I don't even like Mountain Dew). I realize not everyone believes the stereotype, but it just hurts my feelings when I see us portrayed like this in the media. Anyways, now that I've ranted a bit.....It is a beautiful place. I love my mountains and even my small town. I do wish I had a mall close to my area, but that's why online shopping is so great!

2. I'm going to pharmacy school!!!! and not just any school I have been accepted at the University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy! It has been my dream to go there for so long and I got in! It is ranked #5 in the nation, so not too shabby. :) I went through a period of doubt thinking I wasn't good enough to get in, but I did. So never give your all and never give up and you can do it! I'll be starting in the fall. SO excited!

3.  I have been dating my boyfriend, Brandon, for about a year and a half now. He has always been so supportive of my love of fashion and makeup. I think we are behind the times here in Eastern Ky, so I do "stand out" compared to what everyone else wears, and I have got negative comments before, but he loves what I wear and encourages me. I think that is so important. Another lesson to girls, don't let someone bring you down, because you can and will find someone that likes/loves you for you. AND be yourself, it doesn't matter what other people think! Yea, so, Brandon is the best! He is a P.E. teacher and soccer coach and I love him a lot. :)

4. My hair is naturally blonde. I don't dye or do anything to my hair to color it. I think it keeps my hair healthy. I love my hair. I use to have long hair, then I went mad and chopped it off, so now I'm in the process of letting it grow back out a little. I think not coloring my hair helps me to keep it healthier since I do use a lot of heat on it.

5. I'm a complete nerd and I love it. I actually love to study! I love learning new things. It has never been a chore for me to study, except for math. I always loved my biology classes and history classes. I really enjoy watching animal planet and discovery channel. I am obsessed with Harry Potter! LOVE IT! Why does it have to be over :( and my car's name is Optimus Prime. 

That's just 5 things about me. If you want to know more, within reason, then ask away. Thanks for reading! xx
