This week I will not be posting a typical blog, but instead use pictures to describe my life. I hope you enjoy!
1. Books
One of the first pleasures that I learned to enjoy in life was immersing myself in a good story.
2. Chamber Choir
Performing a complex piece of music with other hard-working individuals is so satisfying to my soul.
3. Pho
This little bowl of joy is so much more than just soup!
4. Madeline
She is my baby! Who couldn’t love all that fluff?!
5. Siblings
I may have been an only child until I was 16, but having these introduced into my life has brought me so much joy and growth.
6. I am not graceful
Until I was ten, I believed the word grace was being extremely clumsy. Props to my family for using it as an ironic nickname for me (and my mom).
7. Ginger Beer
I’m not a big fan of soda, but I found this gem in Africa. Unfortunately, I have yet to find this brand (which is the best) in the States.
8. Trying New Food
I tried Dim Sum for the first time while visiting a friend in Hong Kong. I have yet to find such a delicious equal back home.
9. Roller Coasters
Because who doesn’t love flying precariously on a metal track?!
10. I do not like makeup
Wearing makeup makes me feel like I am veiling my true self and attempting to put up a front for how others see me.
11. Space
Every time I sit and watch the stars, I am always filled with awe at my existence and feel so tiny in such an infinite universe.
12. Harry Potter
Remember me telling you at the beginning about immersing myself in a good story? This was (and is) my go to for a fiction fix.
13. Adventure
Occasional adrenaline rushes are welcome to me. I was in South Africa about to go shark cage diving with my amazing teammates.
14. I am not tall
As a child, I knew I would never be tall based on my parents heights.
15. Indian Food
I first experienced Indian food in college. I dream of visiting India one day.
16. Swimming
Some close friends and I at a river in California before a friends wedding.
17. Animals
An understanding between species is vital nourishment for my soul.
18. Action movies
I love action! If it’s Marvel then that is even better.
19. French Horn
I played throughout middle school to college. I miss it dearly.
20. Milkshakes
There are so many possibilities I just don’t know where to start!
21. Friends
Meeting up with an international group isn’t always easy, but it is so satisfying.
22. Beach
Warm sand and water to splash in. Also usually coupled with books and naps.
23. Veterinary Technician
This is what my degree is in and what I do in between missions.
24. Cornbread
If it is from a box then it isn’t cornbread.
25. Chili
Best meal for me no matter the weather.
26. Blue
My favorite color.
27. Travel
Meeting human raised tigers in Thailand.
28. I do not like waking up early
Getting up earlier than the last possible second is just horrible.
29. Africa
A continent dear to me that I hope to revisit in my time.
30. Video Games
Pairs well with pajamas and staying up until four in the morning.
31. Summer
My favorite season.
32. I do not like camouflage
I will rebel against this ugly fashion trend forever.
33. Rice
My favorite grain.
34. I do not like peanut butter
I enjoyed it until I ate it almost every day in Africa.
35. Orphan Care
I would love to volunteer as a technician at a game reserve in Africa, specifically tending to orphaned big cats.
36. Missions
Living in tents and not showering for the purpose of reaching people is so fulfilling.
37. Chocolate
I have a huge sweet tooth.
38. Flying
A superpower that I will dream of all of my life.
39. Fruit
So versatile. Breakfast, smoothies, dessert. The options are endless.
40. Stuffing my face
Just in case I haven’t mentioned that I love food.
These are a few of the things that describe me. I hope you enjoyed the twist on the usual writing.
