a little about me

i'm really excited to be participating in the send something good project - formally know as package pals - hosted by gentri, kaitlyn, and kristy. basically a bunch of us bloggers signed up to send a fun package to another blogger. unlike previous swaps that i have participated in, who is assigned to who remains a secret. it's up to me to learn about this person and figure out what they would like to receive in their package.

in an effort to keep things simple, get to know more bloggers, and also to provide information about myself and what i like, i am linking up this post with the send something good gals. you can link up on either one of their blogs, or at the bottom of this post.

in addition to (or possible overlapping) my about me page and random facts (including my recent "7 questions" posts), here is a little more info about yours truly :)

1. i love, love, love taking photos, more as a hobby than anything else. i really enjoy shooting with film, mostly 35mm or disposable cameras. but i'm constantly shooting with my iphone as well.
2. i'm pretty obsessed with my iphone (in case that hasn't come across in my posts, lol).
3. i've recently been focusing on living a healthier lifestyle. i'm trying to eat healthier (which is hard! haha), and i've joined a local gym. i've already noticed a difference in how my clothes fit, and working out has become a habit for me now... i make sure to fit it in my schedule whenever i can.
4. even though i try to eat healthy, i LOVE chocolate, and popcorn. yum :) oh, and steak. filet mignon. yes please.
5. i'm pretty addicted to target. i'm there at least 2-3 times a week. it's kind of ridiculous.
6. i love totes, clutches, coin purses, and makeup bags.
7. i love adding items to my growing makeup collection, especially eye shadows and lip products, even though i need to cool it soon... that money adds up! haha.
8. my favorite tv shows right now are: game of thrones, east bound and down, the killing, new girl, modern family, revenge, grey's anatomy, i survived, and how i met your mother. i watch a lot of  too much tv.
9. i'm going to vegas memorial day weekend with chester & our friends and i'm SO excited! this will be my 6th vegas trip, but it really is different every time i go.
10. i'm really becoming a serious apple fangirl.
11. i enjoy crafting, and have been itching to make something new this month.
12. i'm turning 28 next month on the 20th :)
13. i love to read, but it's been so long since i've read a book :( sadness. next on the list are devil in the white city and the game of thrones books. i'm pretty open to suggestions though, if anyone has any :)
14. i love good design. i wish i was better at graphic design myself. i can manage ok on some client stuff at work, but i should just stick to video ;)
15. my favorite color is blue, and i really like heather grey too.
16. i had blue streaks in my hair for a couple years, and now i have purple and brown... pb & j, as chester calls it. but i've been debating on getting rid of the purple only b/c it's so expensive to maintain. BUT i really do love it, so we'll see how long i keep it

that's about all i can think of right now. if you're a new reader, thanks so much for stopping by! and if 

you're not, thanks for coming back! at the beginning of the year i promised to be better about posting regularly on this blog, and i think i've done a pretty good job so far :) i plan to keep it up!

until next time,

steph
