5 random facts about me


Since I'm just starting out on this blog, I thought I would share 5 super random facts about me! You can learn more on my "about me" page, but I thought five random facts would be a fun way to introduce myself today.

  1. I'm a huge Chicago Blackhawks fan, and pride myself in being pretty knowledgable when it comes to Hockey as a sport. However, when it comes to other sports, I'd like to say I have a basic knowledge or understanding of the rules, but I may be giving myself too much credit in saying even that.
  2. The only country I've traveled to outside of the United States in Canada, but I love visiting there! I have family outside of Toronto, and have also visited Niagra Falls. It's one of my goals in the next few years to slowly explore more of the country with my family.
  3. In case you couldn't tell by my first two facts, my house is a total Winter Sport house (Can't wait for the Winter Olympics to begin next week!). We love to ski, snowmobile, skate, sled, play hockey, the whole nine yards. As you can imagine, there isn't a lot of great skiing in Kentucky or Illinois, but the coolest place I've ever skied is Terry Peak in South Dakota!
  4. I have staples in my right lung. Yes, surgical steel staples in my lung. This is my go to fun fact for any ice-breaker on the first days of class.  It sounds pretty freaky (and I guess it is!) but I will definitley be sharing more about this soon!
  5. My go-to Karaoke song is "Don't Go Breaking my Heart" by Elton John and Kiki Dee. It's a duet, but I usually won't do Karaoke unless I can rope someone else in to singing with me! It's such a classic. If I had to sing a song by myself though, I would probably chose "My Church" by Maren Morris. My mom and I are obsessed with it! I've been told that my brother thinks I'm a pretty great car-singer, so at least I have that going for me!

Blue Light Glasses

I'm not sure if it's the 10 hours + a day I spend on the computer, or the extra 5 I spend on my phone, but my eyes have been tired recently. This was enough for me to look into blue light glasses and purchase a pair. Blue Light is the light from your computer that can strain your eyes and cause trouble falling and staying asleep. I purchased an  inexpensive pair  just to try them out, and so far I'm really enjoying them. I've forgotten to throw them in my bag a couple of times, and now always wish I had them because I've noticed a significant difference in how tired my eyes feel by two or three pm. So I want to know, have you tried blue light blocking glasses? If so which ones do you have and what do you think of them?

Looking Forward To...

Popping in to share some things I'm looking forward to in the next few weeks! + My first Dance Performance since 2016. This semester I am performing in a jazz/hip-hop number with our school's new dance company and I am so excited! We have our showcase on Friday and I can't wait to get on stage again. A lot of my friends didn't even know that I used to dance for 16 years, so it will be really fun to share this part of my life with them. + Warmer Weather. It has snowed two times in the past three days in Louisville. It's just been a light dusting each night, but I still can't believe it. I'm ready for the 70 degrees days of February to return ASAP! + St. Patrick's Day. My Mom's side of the family is obsessed with St.Patrick's Day (Mostly because of my Grandpa Jim) so I can't wait to celebrate this weekend! A friend and I are planning on going out in the afternoon to avoid that craziness that goes on that night. + Meditating. ...
