facts| me.

I've been unpacking, cleaning, and spending time with family while still stuck on a different time zone. but I promise I'll start writing on here a lot more real soon. I can't wait to share pictures of Florida with you. & late river pictures, plus shares some new (and more personal) things with you guys! but in the mean time, here are just a few facts to get to know me a little better. xo

1| I have scoliosis. not too severe but definitely noticeable. I used to be real self conscious about it (sometimes I still am) but I've grown to realize that it's how I was made and I will continue to strengthen my body to help it in any way that I can, but I wont let it effect how I look at myself. (I'll write a whole post on it sometime) 

2| one of my biggest dreams is to one day travel the united states campsite to campsite.

3| My brother, cousin, and I were almost kidnapped when we were younger. definitely made me very hesitant of trusting people, and now I'm extremely aware of my surroundings. 

4| i do everything with my left hand except write. brush my teeth, eat cereal, throw a frisbee, all left handed.

5| I sometimes (more often than not) listen to Christmas music all year round because I love Christmas time so much I just can't always wait. 

facts| samename

I saw a picture today, it read "name random facts about your best friend", as facts were popping into my head about all my friends, it gave me the idea to start a little series and post some facts about a friend or a family member every once and a while. let you in on a few of the important people in my life (i promise not to make it boring). 

first up, my samename. (and if that doesn't give it away, that means we have the same name..) we haven't been friends for that long (around two years) but her and I became super close, fast friends, and we always seem to be thinking the same thing, it's probably cause of the name. ;)

01| she has too soft of hands that she can't open those plastic produce bags(one of the reasons she keeps me around).

02| she has a strange love for vaseline.

03| she is a special effects makeup artist, she once made me into a dinosaur. 

04| her phone is rarely ever over 40% charged.

05| if you need some shoes I promise you'll find about six pairs in her car.

06| ..along with twenty seven empty water bottles.

07| she loves her pug, coffee, & christmas more than pretty much anything. 

08| she is seven inches taller than me. 

09| shes a part of a secret league but if I told you what it was I'd probably have to kill you.

10| she is a math genius. 

ps we have an instagram together: @samenameshoes
