i was tagged!

My twinner, Livvy, tagged me in her blog to do this. WOOO!! I hope I do it right. Before I do it, I'll share a brief update I suppose. 

Life is GREAT! I could not be more blessed. Things are going so well. I'm training for a half marathon and am loving it - sort of. Running is NOT easy for me. I still may pack a gnarly pair of roller skates. We'll see. Still looking for places to go and do Humanitarian Aid. Hit me up with your knowledge if you know of any. Loving college and my roomates. They're the best. I've been thinking about a mission as of late. Who knows. Next semester I'm selling my soul to school. 19 credits, baby. You can just call me the living dead. I will probably end up kicking off the zombie apocalypse. Anywho, here's the dealio I was tagged to do!
