This is a fun one.
I was tagged by Emily of CoupleJones on Tuesday, where you write 5 things about yourself. If you have not been over to CoupleJones you should check out her Encourage to Inspire Project with CailaMade...it is going to be a great series on inspiration and creating!
So I got tagged, and now I am going to play!
5 things you may not know about me.
1. I love history. I always have been a bit obsessed with different eras and the pasts of different cultures. I really enjoyed my two high school history classes, and the teacher I had for those classes was really very good. At Cal State Long Beach, I found myself another great history teacher...this was not world history...this was art history. I was hooked. So I have a BA in Studio Art with an emphasis in Art History.
2. I have a huge obsession with bunnies and elephants. Bunnies - I think they are too cute for this world. I go around yelling "BUN BUNS!" when I see one...just ask Jimi. He does a great impression of me, because I am a dork. Elephants - they are such loving, gentle giants. A lot of my art is inspired by them and our house has quite a few elephant things in it.
3. Rootbeer fanatic - Barq's rootbeer is my favorite. But I also like handcrafted rootbeer and the classic A&W (rootbeer float...yes, please). If I could only have one sweet thing for the rest of my life - RB would be it...hands down.
4. I have wanted an Etsy shop since 2007 when I discovered Etsy...yes I remember the year, it was kind of a big deal for me. Everyone got Etsy gifts for Christmas that year. Now in 2013, a mere 5 and half years later, I am finally going to open my own shop. Why did I wait so long? I don't know. End of March people, it is happening here!
5. I paddle outrigger canoe...Hawaiian style boats surfing down waves...that kind of paddling. Through paddling I met my fiance, Jimi, who I have had a huge crush on for like ever. Yes, I still have a huge crush on him...duh! I feel so blessed that we get to share our love for the ocean, the waves and the sport with one another.
Okay that is enough about me. Now I tag Kelly, Noni, Lish, Kat and MJ. Kelly, because I know you will love this :) and Noni, Lish, Kat and MJ, because I would love to know a little bit more about my Falling for Friday friends!
xo,
