19 Things You Should (And Hopefully Don't Already) Know About Me
Courtney Chapman

School is starting and fall is getting a little closer. There's something about the end of summer that makes new beginnings seem possible again.

So in the spirit of a new semester and new classes and new beginnings, here's me starting over with where I probably should've started with this thing – a classic get-to-know-you article. In honor of recently turning 19, here are 19 fun facts about me!

I go to Texas A&M University.

You probably already knew this. Gig 'em.

I am a Christian. 

Really hoping you already knew this one!

My favorite color is yellow.

I'm afraid of dogs.

I love people way more than animals.

I love to read.

Since I know you're wondering, I don't really have a favorite book, but my 10th grade English teacher got me hooked on Charles Dickens and other classics, and when I was younger I was obsessed with Nancy Drew.

I'm an introvert, and didn't realize it until this year.

My celebrity crush will always be Ryan Gosling.

A miscellaneous list of things I just really love: musical theater, coffee shops, snail mail, rainy days, trying new foods and meeting new people.

I'm learning Spanish, and hope to study abroad in a Spanish speaking country and become fluent.

¡ Aprender español es divertido!

I consider my ability to shop at thrift stores and off of clearance racks one of my best talents.

I never thought I would say this one, but I legitimately love working out.

This is my favorite vine right now.

Don't ask why. I don't really know either.

I am a type four on the Enneagram.

Here's a little more information about the Enneagram if you are confused.

I listen to One Direction way too much.

My favorite movie is 'Pretty in Pink'.

This movie also became part of the reason I went by "Pinki" this summer at camp.

I played softball for 12 years.

My go-to meal is a cheeseburger and French fries.

By the way, In-n-Out > Whataburger, end of discussion.

 I'm really clumsy.

Hope you fell in love with this post (haha get it?), and now I'm a little less of a stranger writing stuff on the internet!

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods.

bruce springsteen album cover born in the usa

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.
