I love eating. It’s just a fact, so I took on this challenge to try to make myself try new things. I tend to get in the habit of eating only what I know I like, even though I’m not opposed to trying new things… I just go with the familiar. A few of the things that I tried include McDonald’s Big Mac, like 15 different types of sushi, rib tips, and pistachios.

How I did it: My friend Jeff is a ceramics major, and he took my boyfriend and me to the school's art studio one night to play around with clay. I ended up messing mine up, but it was so much fun! I'm going to try to trick him into taking me back over there at least once a week... :) Nothing feels as good as the wet clay spinning between your fingers. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Basically, a boy told me he wouldn't marry me if I didn't know how to cook.2 years and a new boyfriend later, I am looking into culinary school. :)It is one of the best things I've ever done. I've gained a bit of weight (ha!) but nothing makes me happier than making good food... or food, period. (mistakes happen!) I started with simple recipes and read up on some things, and now I am pretty confident that I can follow jus… Read how I did it…

So, I got my first tattoo in October. A friend designed it for me, and I am more than smitten with it. It’s meaningful to me.
The next tattoo I want to go though will be a half sleeve which I am hoping to incorporate some of Halsey’s work within.
So many people I love are there. Or are moving there.
So many things I love happen there.
I must go to there.
