10 Weird/Funny/Interesting Things You May Not Have Known About Me

As the title suggests, here’s a few things you probably didn’t know about me.

1. In fourth grade, I met Governor George W. Bush on a trip to Austin, TX with the Cub Scouts to complete one of the requirements for a merit badge and even got a picture with him. He’s not too tall.

2. Thanksgiving night, 2008: I broke my right pinky toe playing that baseball game on the Wii.

3. I cried/cry during Forrest Gump and Fools Rush In.

4. I’m actually really afraid of the dark. Like, seriously. Which is why I won’t watch scary movies right before I go to sleep. Nope.

5. I absolutely love roller coasters. Except the ones that take you up and drop you. No thank you.

6. I hate haunted houses and have never been to one. Not happening. Probably stems from my fear of the dark.

7. I’m pretty nerdy. I absolutely love Transformers and Harry Potter and sometimes think how I would interact with Optimus Prime or Harry Potter.

8. I’ve got a slight crush on Taylor Swift. She’s just so darn adorable.

9. I got to drive a 2010 Ferrari 599 valued at $374,000 for an hour around Irving, TX. Sure, it was nerve-wracking driving something that expensive, but the thrill of driving something with 620 horsepower is incredible.

10. A few years back, on Christmas morning, I devoured an entire Reese’s peanut butter and chocolate Christmas tree in one sitting. This was one of those big ones that came in a good size box. Suffice it to say Christmas morning was delayed by 20 minutes.

Ah, I almost forgot:

Christmas Eve, 1991/92: I was around four or five years old. We had a tradition in the Loa household of opening a small present Christmas Eve. My mom told me I could open mine as soon as I got out of the bathroom. So I releived myself and was in such a hurry, accidentally zipped up a, um, sensitive area in my pajamas. That’ll make your eyes water QUICK.
