Facts About Me

Posted on the 12 June 2014 by Lifeofasportswife @jessaolson
While I was on my blogging break I did a lot of thinking about what type of blogger I wanted to be. Yes, I have been blogging for a few years now and I probably should have figured that by now, but I haven't. I want to be a blogger where I meet and get to know people. I want to be a friend blogger. I want to a blogger that you know my life not just the good stuff. I want you to know ME!!

#1. I have embraced that I am a nomad. Since I have been married (3 years if you are counting), we have moved twice. We are at about a year and half in one stop. It doesn't work of everyone, but it works for us and that's all that matter. 

#2. I love dry cereal. I can and will eat it all day. Let's be honest I can eat breakfast at all meals of the day if I could. We talked about it briefly to have it at our wedding reception.  #3. I hate taking showers. Sorry but I do. (I do take them but  for some reason I'm not a big fan.) I don't like baths either. I do LOVE hot tubs though. (Who doesn't though!) #4. I hated my name growing up, and wanted to change it to Sarah. My real name is Jessica. I shorten it to Jessa about 5 years ago.  #5. I haven't always been crafty. I use to hate it and was actual embarrassed about it growing up.  #6. My husband is the first good guy that I dated. I am great at picking out "amazing" guys.  #7. I'm really quiet when I first meet people! I just examine the room then interact with people. 

#8. I don't like chocolate. I know, it's weird. 

#9. I am a people pleasure. Even on things that I shouldn't. 

#10. My first major in college was music. I wanted to be a music teacher, but after my first semester at Henderson State I didn't want anything to do with music. I graduated from Iowa State with a degree in marketing and journalism. 

#11. I was born in Iowa, but grew up in Arkansas. I consider them both home. 

#12. I hate talking on the phone. There are only a handful of people that I will answer the phone for. Everyone else can text me. 

#13. I love fountain drinks. I use to be really bad about drinking pop. Now I have (1) 32 oz diet mountain dew. 

#14. I'm a morning person. 

#15. My biggest pet peeve is multiple alarms. (I hope the hubs is reading this. He already knows it, but I know I'll get a text from him.) Wake up at the first alarm! It's not that hard.. See above. 

#16. Sometimes I wish we would settle down in one place. At times I want out of the sports industry, but being in WV I know he is LOVING his job. It can just be tiring dealing with the long hours, homestands, etc. (To be fair he knows this one. I don't post anything about him without him knowing about it first.) Again to be honest we have fought about this!
