It's taken me a while to make the switch to Blogger, but now that the transformation is complete I thought I would begin this new blog in a completely Bloggeresque manner, which is, of course, the 100 things list.
Some of you don't know me from Adam so 100 things about me might be a good place to start.
For today, just #1-10, though.
1. I have a 30-minute commute from my apartment to the campus where I work and I absolutely love it. A highway drive that cuts through the Blue Ridge mountains... what's not to love? At this time of year I get a daily dose of gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, and coupled with Colbie Collait crooning love songs to me through my stereo, I couldn't ask for more. Sure as heck beats the old bumper-to-bumper carbon dioxide-infused rush-hour that Orlando has to offer.
2. I like words that contain dashes (see last sentence of #1) and I also like to use the cliffhanger dash-- just like this.
3. I adore Netflix and am currently working through season three of ER.
4. Speaking of ER, I am a die-hard fan (of seasons one through three, at least). My favorite character is Dr. Mark Greene, followed in short order by Dr. John Carter who actually was quite endearing as a med student. Then of course the Carol Hathaway/Dr. Doug Ross relationship is starting to heat up in this season, but for me that is bittersweet because I realize that shortly thereafter Dr. Ross (played by the devilish George Clooney) will be leaving the show.
5. I could not survive life on earth without bread and potatoes. I must be a true Italian.
6. I'm a complete sucker for snuggling.
7. I don't eat chicken, beef or pork. But sometimes I really want to eat BBQ ribs.
8. Sometimes music will hit this sweet spot in my soul that I can't really explain to anyone, but there is nothing like it.
9. I graduated college with a degree in interpersonal communication and still find myself amazingly interested in it. It has made me consider pursuing my master's in intercultural communication one day.
10. I have ambitions to learn Spanish, French, Italian, German, Arabic, Chinese and Russian. My boyfriend (Joshua) and I have decided that if we learn one language every seven years, we can have it done before we die. I'm able to hold my own with Spanish already, so I think I'm ahead of the curve.
That's it for today, kiddos.
Ciao, bella.
