No, this post is not about Jack Bauer.
Today is my birthday and in honor of turning 24, here are 24 factoids about me ;-)
My mom's water broke the evening of April 1st, but she didn't have me until later in the day on the 2nd. I could have been an April's Fool baby, but I wasn't. Thanks Mom!
I am 1/4 Japanese, dad's side.
I've never colored my hair (only gotten highlights once).
I like making lists.
Actually, I love making lists.
I have vandalized school property. Intentionally. In a minor fashion, but it was therapeutic.
I have become more introverted the older I've gotten. I talked a lot when I was little. Like, a lot.
When I was 4, I founded "The Prissy Club." Only Virginia Taylor and myself were members.
I am published! Two of my devotions appear in the book "Big Dreams from Small Spaces," published by Group Publishing. My ultimate goal is publish a devo book for little kids.
Drowning/suffocating and snakes are my biggest fears.
And thanks to this last winter, I now loathe driving on ice.
#teamsweettea all the way. And no, unsweet tea with "sweetener" is NOT the same thing.
In the last year, I rediscovered my love of reading.
If you don't know me well, you read that and thought "Wow! But she's...normal!"
Or maybe you didn't. That's okay too.
I have a weakness for cosmetic bags and office supplies. Both obsessions started young.
I met my husband on a blind date...a mutual friend set us up...after she had dreamed (repeatedly) we were married. We were engaged in 8 months. When you know, you know!
Psalms, Hebrews and Romans are my favorite books of the Bible.
Anchors are my life symbol. Hebrews 6:19
I love checking the mail.
When I lived with my parents, one of my main household chores was to do the dishes. I was nicknamed "The Dish Fairy." I can't wait to have a kid who can be my dish fairy. Haha!
Speaking of nicknames, I didn't really have nicknames growing up. I was just Samantha. That's still my preference. A select few get to call me Sam or Sammi ;) And they know who they are.
Love,
Samantha
