10 things you might not know about my past

In response to the What We Have in Common, Getting to Know Each Other Better- Contest, I am sharing 10 things that you (my ActiveRain family) probably doesn't know about me!

10 things that my ActiveRain family probably doesn't know about me:

1. I have circumnavigated the globe
   I went on Semester at Sea which is a four month study abroad program that takes place on a converted cruise ship. We visited 11 countries in the spring of 2009. I can honestly this was the best experience I have ever had. I meet some of my closest friends, saw many wonders of the world, and I didn't know a single person on the first day!

2. I moved to Washington for no reason
   I grew up in Southern California and decided to move to Washington for a change. I am glad I did since that is how I got this amazing job at ActiveRain :)

3. I have been skydiving twice (once was with my grandma!)

4. I went ziplining in Alaska

5. I grew up in a house with 9 people
   That's 6 kids, my parents and my grandma. Oh wait should I count the dogs, cats and birds?

6. I had to wear a uniform from first to eighth grade
   
   
7. I used to have a Disneyland pass

8. I drove the Pacific Coast Highway (Highway 1) from Los Angeles to San Francisco

9. I swam competitively in high school

10. I used to HATE vegetables (now I love them)

I hope you all know me a little better now. I can't wait to read some of your posts!
