15 things: random tidbits of my life

You know you're from Montana when you see color combos of silver and maroon or blue and gold and automatically think UM and MSU.

I try to live by the rule: "don't knock it till you try it" particularly in regards to food.

You know basketball runs thick in your blood when a p.e. teacher isn't doing it right and you have to force yourself to not step in. (But I did anyway).

The relationship between myself and stairs is a battle, up, down, walking, running, using the railing or not - I lose.

You know you're from Montana when you think "I can handle an Alaskan winter in the bare minimums" all the while having winter gear in the car for safety and just in case. (I caved on this one).

Elementary schools were not built with adults in mind - in any fashion. Case in point: the door handles at any entrance hits me at my knee or just above.

I dread the morning I spill my coffee from slipping on the ice in the 5 feet it takes to walk from the coffee shop to my Jeep. (This is a ticking time bomb)

I live in a town where people are shocked that at the age of 24 I have not been married at least once, nor have I had children.

While I complain about the cold and winter driving, every time it snows...the excitement of snow floating from the sky is undeniable like the butterflies of a first date.

Every time I try to leave my bank I never open the door right, even though I coach myself from the car to the teller about the door and also seemingly forget to read the sign on the door instructing me to "push".

I pick my wine based on the uniqueness of the label.

Americano with coconut is like a Hawaiian sunrise every morning, my favorite. Try it!

Alaskans stop at the sight of a caribou heard like tourists in Yellowstone.

November 2013 will forever be the only month I completed No Shave November.... I let my armpits be unkempt. It was gross.

Pringles MUST be consumed in stacks of no less than 5 at a time in one bite or mouthful. The pickle flavor is also delicious.

Day by day, I don't see much change in who I am, however, I am not the same person I was 6 months ago. I like that.
