Can't believe I got tagged by morningbloom to post 20 interesting facts about myself, but I guess here goes.

1. Born in Kingman, KS and lived there until I was about 10 or 12

2. My first kiss came at age 3 from the girl next door, Erica

3. I've lived in Kansas, Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, Illinois, Massachusettes, South Carolina, and North Carolina

4. I am a trained barrista by both Starbucks and Exspresso Royale.

5. I was a drum major in high school

6. Played the piano since I was 3 but once refused to play for an hour with a new teacher because I felt I wasn't being challenged by her. She wanted me to play a piece that I had played two years earlier for a recietal and wouldn't believe me when I told her I had, so I refused to play.

7. I've always won battles of will. Beginning with my mom over eating vegetable soup. Stayed at the table until 11 pm and fell asleep, she eventually offered me a grilled cheese sandwich.

8. I worked as an EMT for 4 years in Boston, MA. Most fun ever and saw things I'll never forget.

9. The worst thing I've ever smelt was burnt open bowel from a traffic accident

10. I've been to Iraq and looked in the faces of the people there... we are doing the right thing.
