With that, here are 11 things you probably never needed to know about me!
1. I had a doctor’s appointment yesterday, and without going into too much detail, it was scary and painful. In order to make myself feel better, I came home with this:

A new Nike workout tank….
…and some new Puma running socks. I’m not usually brand-specific or loyal, but I’ve had good luck with Puma’s running socks. And the retail therapy made me feel a bit better 🙂
2. I leave for Hawaii in approximately 18 days. Not that I am counting or anything.
3. I went through a piercing phase when I was younger and at my peak, I had 11 piercings. I still have 10 but I don’t really wear them all regularly.
4. I’m pretty psyched that my new beanie came in the mail a couple of days ago. I had ordered it online from a friend’s company and since it is supposed to snow tonight, I have plans to wear it! She hand crochets all of her hats, so they are super warm!
You need to see the side too. Don’t you love how droopy it is?!
5. I really get a kick out of that news story about Pat Sajak and Vanna White drinking while hosting Wheel of Fortune. I’m dying to find a clip of them hosting while drunk!
6. I’m turning 30 in less than a month (March 1). Luckily, I’m not freaking out and am actually excited. I loved my 20s so I figure my 30s should be even more awesome!
7. I went to Egypt two years ago. While there, we did a camel trek to a Bedouin village. The trail zig zagged along the Red Sea, and I had the sassiest camel that ever existed. At one point, we walked over this narrow ledge and my camel came to an abrupt stop and tried to launch me over his head into the sea below. I started yelling at the camel, and he snorted at me! We had a talking to after that. Sassy camel.
8. I climbed Mt. Rainier back in 2007. We started the hike at like 1am and I realized we had been hiking for like 5 hours by the time the sun rose. It was an awesome climb and I am thinking of taking a few friends back so they can go for a summit attempt!

9. When I lived in Spain, my friend Angela and I traveled to a small town called Denia for a day trip. Clearly we were stupid tourists at the time and didn’t know that everything was booked solid for some festival. Long story short, we couldn’t catch a train back and every hostel and hotel was booked for the night. We hung out in a bar until 2am and then snuck onto the private beach at a fancy hotel and slept on their lawn chairs 🙂 Did I mention that I’m a rebel?!

10. I rappelled off this arch in college. It’s in Utah, just outside of Moab, but there are already bolts in the top for when tour companies take groups up there. I took this pic after we all made it down safely. We don’t need no tour! 🙂
11. I got stung by a jelly fish doing my open water scuba cert in Ecuador. The kicker? Our instructor had driven the boat to the other side of the island since we were proving that we could swim (a component to pass the cert). We had to keep swimming, right through the sea of jelly fish, because we had no other options!
