So onto the introductions:
My name is Samantha and I am from the Houston area of Texas, I am 26 years old and fixing to go back to school something that I need to do not only for my future as well as just to prove that I am not as bad at school as I believe that I am.
This is a picture of my brothers girlfriend and I. I am on the one in the blue dress and why my goal over the next while is to lose a good portion of weight. I want to look good so that when those two do get married (because they will) I can look good in any dress I decide to where to the wedding.
15 Interesting facts about my self is a little harder to figure out. I mean what I can consider interesting and what others consider interesting are two very different things. But here we go:
1. I have never left the US but on a Cruise Ship, My mom and my sister have both driven to Mexico, my Mom flew to France and my Dad has been to Canada but both my brother and I have only traveled out of the US on a Cruise ship. Maybe that should be a goal fly to another Country or Drive to Mexico over the next few years.
2. The Farthest north I have traveled is Tennessee and the Farthest west is Colorado, yep another thing I wish to change.
3. I love to read, not all that interesting but it should be said on here early on. My favorite types of books to read are Paranormal and Romance
4. I have been on a total of 3 cruises, which I have loved them all.
5. I was taught to fish by my mom's dad growing up, but I am too much of a girly girl to still fish, though sometimes I wish I still did.
6. I am teaching myself to make my own jewelry to go with my own style not just the style that the stores sell for you. A little harder to do and it can also be more expensive.
7. I have been to one Leaky Con in 2011, I wish to go again in 2013 along with VidCon and BEA and Comic Con. Talk about one very expensive summer if I do go to it all but I would love to go to each of them so here goes planning and saving to see what all I can afford.
8. My cousin's husband actually fell off a beam in our garage and fell onto the windshield of my car after Hurricane IKE. The car was not working so they did not really have a way to move it so that is where he ended up falling, I guess it beats the concrete.
9. My goal weight to lose is over 100 lbs, I know not all that interesting but I figure since that will most likely be a topic a couple of times on the blog I may as well as get it out there how many pounds my goal is to lose, but as I start out I am going to show it in smaller increments.
10. I am in general a sloppy person, that is another thing I am hoping to change about myself. Both my room and my appearance. I want a cleaner look for myself neat and put together.
11. Scrapbooking is fun, though I do not do it often, I keep journals on trips that are scrapbook looking.
12. I collected beanie babies when I was in High School with my mom and I still have them all in the top of my closet (I don't think they are worth much now).
13. I have N'SYNC bobble heads, yep I have a Justin Timberlake bobble head along with all the other members of the group N'SYNC.
14. My favorite thing to study is school is math, I love the order to it all, 1+1=2 all the time, that never changes, English seems to be all over the place for me. Personally I was never any good at grammar.
15. You would think this was easier but it is really a lot harder than it looked on the site that I found the 30 posts that needed to be done over the next month. It took way too much thought effort to come up with 15 INTERESTING facts about myself.
