Hey y’all!!! How about we switch things up a bit… I wanted to get out of the natural hair realm for a little bit and get personal with you. Although my hair is one of the ways I like to express myself and my creativity, it is a small portion of who I am.  So, I’m sharing with you a few fun (or weird) facts about me.

1. I love sweet tea…like I would crave it. I cut back drastically because a few years ago, I had my annual blood work done and my A1C revealed that I was borderline Diabetic and I don’t want that in my life.
2. I hate being in large crowds… I wouldn’t say I’m a true Enochlophobic (yeah, I looked the word up), but I need to know where an exit is at all times and if that cannot be accomplished I will not attend the event or gathering.
3. I am a true foodie… I’m always looking for new places to eat, I enjoy the experience of trying new foods. At one point, I considered (very briefly) finding a taste testing job on the Food Network channel.
4. I’m a very animated person… I can tell a story and make it great because I’m going to give you a show along with it. I will impersonate you and do it well (with respect, of course) lol!
5. I hate being wrinkled… It irritates me to the core. I will keep the seat belt off my shirt/dress just to keep it from getting wrinkled. And yes, I even iron my scrubs for work (I know, petty!)
6. I love, love, love to laugh… It doesn’t matter who, what, where, or how, if laughing is involved I’m there. I will even enter a large crowd just to get a good laugh in. It’s euphoric for me.
7. I color when I’m stressed… Nope, I’m not ashamed about it one bit. It calms my mind and creates a mental escape for me. Before adult coloring books, the children’s book worked just fine, I don’t discriminate!
8. I love the taste of Louisiana Hot Sauce… I don’t necessarily put it on every single item I eat, but it is definitely one of my favorite condiments.

Sometimes we get so caught up in the events of our lives that we forget to look at the small things that make us who we are. And every so often, you should explore that about yourself, even if it is weird or not common among society, it doesn’t matter because that’s what makes you who YOU are. NEVER be afraid to be YOU! Some people can’t handle your awesomeness… And that’s okay, but for those who do, keep them close and always appreciate them for loving you for who you are!!!

Not so fast,  I would love to hear some fun facts about you, so please feel free to share in the comments below. Thank you for stopping by!!!!

P.S. In case you were wondering… A1C is a blood test that identifies the average glucose (aka sugar) concentration in your blood over a 3 month period, so your doctor can determine how well your blood sugar levels were regulated in that time frame.
