So for those of you on facebook, you have probably seen the 25 random things phenomenon going around. Anyways I got together some random facts about me and smashed ‘em thogether… so take a look!

One of the most influential people in my life is a former hockey coach, Bill Naucke. He taught me what it means to play every shift like it’s the last time I’ll ever skate. I am eternally in debt to this man. I believe in LOVE, positive thought, and action. I aim to live the hell out of every single day. I love to travel, but I hate being labeled as a tourist. A goal of mine is to become fluent in multiple languages. I have learned more since I graduated college than I did in the combined 17 years of schooling prior to that. A busy day is infinitely better than a day spent doing nothing. Smoking cigarettes is the single most unattractive quality a person can have. I was such a picky eater as a kid, my mom had to institute a 5 minute “complaining time” before every meal where my brother and I would tell her how disgusting her cooking looked. My motto is “keeping it real”. Ask me what I think it means. I was scared of Goofy as a kid. Unfortunately, I had Disney bed sheets. Every night, I would try to hide from the multiple Goofys on my sheets. I pride myself on my ability to compose and take amazing pictures. (On other peoples’ cameras, of course, because I don’t own my own, and frankly, I think sometimes we can get so caught up in getting a picture we forget to have the experience.) People in authority positions that do not understand leadership is about building people up piss me off. I am a people person, I dine on constant exposure to awesome people and I go crazy if I’ve spent all day by myself. My lucky number comes from Brendan Shanahan, my favorite Blues player as a kid, who wore # 19. I am a creative genius and I am an artist; therefore I choose faith over fear. I LOVE what I do. I feel sorry for people whose work is actually a job. Ice hockey is my weakness. I love the sport more than anything. I have a couple awesome scars to prove it, too. A goal of mine is to write a paper using only famous quotes and song lyrics. I have no idea what this paper will be about. Suggestions? I’m incredibly romantic for the right person. And I’m picky as shit. I run a 4.5 40. Odds are I’ll smoke you in a foot race. I am currently boycotting Stella Artois – can you guess why? I can drive a mean stick shift and I secretly love the old Disney movie musicals. I would much rather talk to someone than read a bunch of random things about them.
