About Me

           Hello everyone! My name is Andrea, it’s just Andrea. No middle name (darn you parents) or nicknames. I’m sixteen years old and I’m probably one of the loudest yet curious human beings on Earth. Funny since I come across as the shy one who only speaks to her friends. No you have it all wrong. Once people get to know the real me, they’re surprised. I’m a loud, sarcastic and outgoing person who isn’t afraid of putting herself “out there.” I love to laugh, to me it is the remedy to anything.

          My family consists of my mother, father, my older sister Elissa (pronounced just like Alyssa) and myself. My parents are very different than most. My mother collects candles. Yes, candles. She has around 500 and isn’t stopping anytime soon. I have never actually asked her why she likes to collect them other than the obvious. I’m very much supportive of her collecting them because quite frankly my house smells amazing, heck she even buys candles for my room, what a wonderful woman she is. Her cooking now let me tell you, it is amazing but that’s another story. My dad, hmm, where to start. Ask any of my friends, their initial reaction is: “that’s your dad?” When people first meet him they think he’s a strict man by the way he looks, you’re all wrong. He is a teddy bear, really though. He is a nice and easy going person who loves the outdoors. Every summer we go hiking in Calistoga and wow it is beautiful. My dad looks forward to this day probably more than his birthday, seriously. He isn’t one to sit on the couch watching television; he has to be up and about. My sister and I have an interesting relationship, we can go from being best friends one minute to complete enemies the next. We are the exact opposite, yet everyone says we look alike and act the same. In the end, I really do love her and appreciate everything she has done for me.

        In my spare time I like to run. This past summer I woke up at seven in the morning, sometimes earlier, to go running. Most (normal) people would go running in the afternoon, but I can’t stand it. When I wake up I have a sudden amount of energy and sleeping in for an hour more won’t help it, so I decided to run. Not only was exercising a great start to my day, seeing the sunrise was exceptionally beautiful. Now that’s crossed off my bucket list. Would I want to run competitively? Absolutely not, in my opinion it would take the fun away from it. As for after high school I plan on attending college, I am not sure of which one at the moment though. Kinesiology, anthropology, and sociology all fascinate me, but I am certain I will change my mind as time goes on. I’m not too sure as to what else to talk about so here are some small details about myself:

        I would love to travel Europe one day. I like the color purple. I’m not a fan of reading. I have a pet rabbit. I am scared of needles; I get the willies just thinking of them. I have a job, but I haven’t started working. I listen to the Black Keyes. I love Nutella. Wind mills freak me out. I have watched the movie The Birds and ended up crying from laughter at the end. I enjoying shopping at Urban Outfitters. I am a neat freak.
