Learn a Little More About Me

A while back, I dropped the ball on this whole blogging thing and very recently, I've been trying to make a conscious effort to start posting on a more regular basis. Once I started becoming more active, I gained a couple new followers. So, thank you to everyone that has decided to follow me, both new and old. I thought that since new people would be following along with me on my journey that it might be a good idea to introduce myself a bit and share some things about myself that you might not know from my blog posts. I hope you enjoy getting to know me a little bit more about me.

1. I'm allergic to cats. This is a common allergy in my family. In fact, most people on my father's side of the family are allergic to cats.

2. I'm very hard on myself. I put a lot of pressure on myself to be perfect even though I know it's unattainable. It's caused a lot of unnecessary strife in my life and it's a problem that I'm making a conscious effort to try to solve.

3. I have an English degree with an emphasis in Literature. I graduated on October 21st of last year and it was one of the best feelings of my entire life.

4. I'm very frugal. I try my best to use coupons when I can and make sure to buy things that are on sale. I've always been this way though. Even as a child, I was a saver and hardly ever touched the money in my piggy bank. I have a very healthy respect for money and know the value of a dollar.

5. If I'm reading a book, I always feel the need to finish it. Even if I'm not enjoying the book, I feel like I have to know how it ends. After investing so much time into it, I feel like if I don't finish it, then I've just wasted my time. Either way you look at it, it can be seen as a waste of time, which is even more frustrating to me. Unfortunately, it's a habit of mine that's been very hard to kick.

I hope that you've enjoyed this little insight into getting to know me better and that you stick around to learn more.
