Twenty-Something Things About a Twenty-Something

Hi guys! I'm (finally) starting to keep a blog, and actually keep up with it! I've tried a couple of times in the past, but now that my academics are winding down and I'm not as involved in so many activities, I figured I'd give it another shot.

Here are just a few things about myself:

1. I'm one-year post-grad; I studied biology with a minor in chemistry! 
2. Essie nail polishes are my guilty pleasure. #bikinisoteeny
3. I never go a day without wearing my pearl studs.
4. I cry every time I watch a soldier homecoming video.
5. I have an irrational fear of butterflies.
6. I am a devout New England Patriots fan. P-A-T-S PATS PATS PATS!
7. I hate scary movies.
8. I'm a pro at riding the mechanical bull and/or shark - I once stayed on for 57 seconds.
9. I entered a beauty pageant once for giggles and ended up winning.
10. My favorite food is steak.
11. I once tried to be a vegetarian. That lasted two weeks until I craved some steak.
12. I rowed crew throughout high school and miss it terribly.
13. I'm a ginger.
14. Sperrys are my go-to shoe of choice.
15. I've been to 4 different countries, but want to visit more.
16. I'm originally from Connecticut and hope to move back after grad school.
17. I am a converted Lilly Pulitzer addict.
18. I am also a converted monogram addict. The South has corrupted me.
19. I ride horses.
20. I'm a dog person.
21. I am very close with my family, especially my mom!

What are some key things about yourself? Do we have anything in common? Let me know in the comments, or tweet @twentysomeprep.
