Drooling + My First Kiss: 25 Things About Ashley

by healthy ashley on January 30, 2009

As if you haven’t seen this before :) After being pressured into it via Facebook, I thought you all might care to know 25 Things About ME. I’ve got to admit, it felt a bit awkward writing out 25 sentences that all start with I!

from a family dinner last night

1. I’ve become much truer to myself over the past few years.

2. I drool when I sleep. (Ewww!)

3. Running has quickly become one of my biggest passions.

4. I’ve been a vegetarian since Oct. 2000.

5. I love my ‘alone’ time.

6. I am doing exactly what I want to do- and I’m pretty happy about it.

7. I’m studying to be a nutritionist.

8. I love making new friends.

9. I miss my friends and family in NPR, even though it’s only 1 hour away.

10. I miss the Beanery more than anything. (The Beanery was a coffeehouse my family owned- which eventually led to 4 coffeehouses around Tampa. It was like nothing else- lots of couches, live music and the best people. I met most of my friends there and to this day we all still miss it.)

11. I love cleaning my house.

12. Cooking and baking after a tough day really soothes me.

13. I believe accepting that everything doesn’t have to be perfect is the key to enjoying life.

14. I love traveling and can’t wait to travel outside the U.S. (to somewhere other than Mexico and Canada!).

15. I clip coupons and it makes me feel so good!

16. I am so thankful for the people who care for me.

17. I am too impatient to read movie descriptions or any important details.

18. I still miss my dear friend Jonathan Williams who disappeared with the Navy.

19. I’m all about simplifying my life.

20. I could live off of frozen mango.

21. My first kiss was New Years Eve when I was 17. It was SO BAD!

22. I’ve never been to a college football game- and I’ve already graduated!

23. Out of 13 ’2009 Goals’, I’m accomplishing 12.

24. David and I have been dating long-distance for more than 2 years!

25. I am so excited about what’s to come.

If you would list 25 Things About You, then I tag you! Make sure to let me know if you do it!

Love your list! This one is SO true – I believe accepting that everything doesn’t have to be perfect is the key to enjoying life. :-)

I am interested in becoming a nutritionist as well. What kind of degree/education are you persuing?? I am looking at a Masters degree in Nutrition but also a more holistic nutrition certification. Any thoughts? Tips?

What a great list! I drool when I sleep, too, ha ha.

That’s cool that you’re studying nutrition. I think someday I might go to grad school for that- it’s been a passion ever since I took a class my freshman year of college.

Number 13 is so totally true. I’m always so busy worrying about making things perfect that I don’t enjoy the process/journey. It’s something I’m working on.

Oooo I actually did this on my site a while ago. It was SO hard to think of 25 things. I think it literally took me months to do.

Here's my recap: http://www.spiffykerms.com/2009/05/25-random-facts/
