HERES YOUR ANSWERS PART 2

Describe a major issue or event that has affected your family.

One event that has greatly affected my family is my sister’s divorce. Right before the Christmas of 2004 my sister and my young nephew got kicked out by her husband. Her and her husband tried to work it out until April when my sister found out about the other woman. By that time she was pregnant with twins. It was a major issue with our family because he had ruined her financially. She had to move back in with me and my mom. (I was going to Community College in Western KY at the time.) Of course she didn’t like this at all but I believe it was a blessing. I was able to stay home with my nephews for the first years of their life. This is why I care so deeply for them. There father turned out to be a sperm donor just like his father had been to him. This was to my great surprise because me and him had been very close until his father came back into his life. This was also very wonderful for my sister because she now is with someone who she is completely happy with.

Describe yourself as a competitor

I have never been into competitive sports or any competitions like that. I was in the marching band for four years. (yes I am a band geek) We were a tight knit group and worked hard to be the best we could. Which was generally pretty well. Sorry I have a story to tell: My sophomore year I wanted a belly button ring soooo bad and my mom refused to let me get one. I made her a deal that if the band got in the top 10 at state she would sign for me to get one. She had no faith and guess what!!! We got exactly 10th in the state and I got my belly ring. Back on track: When we were at competitions and our name was called to receive an award it was like static was in the air and euphoria set over me. Marching band started my competitive spirit and now any time someone challenges me in something (that is not sports related) I will work my damndest to beat them. I love the feeling of accomplishment.

Why do you want to be on the RW? Why do you think others will vote for you?

This is going to sound so cliché: I come from a small town where everyone knows everyone and I have never allowed myself to let go and just not care. I was very uptight in high school and only went to like two parties. Now that I am in college I have loosened up but I have still have not totally let myself go free. I would love to get away from college for a while and just not think about it at all. I think the point of Season 20 is to find people with ambition and since I have ambition I hope people will vote for me. I am very fun to be around and I am smiling 65% of the time, I am sleeping the other 35%...although I have been told by some that I smile even when I am asleep.

Do you drink alcohol? If yes, how do you generally behave when intoxicated?

I do drink alcohol on a semi-regular basis but RARELY ever get drunk. I love a corona here and there and my favorite mixed drink is an amaretto sour. When I get drunk I don’t act crazy I actually get really mellow and don’t talk a lot. Of course that is because typically I am at a restaurant and not a party. Apparently I also loose track of time: Me, my sister, and her boyfriend were at Hananokis one day and I told her I would keep up with her drink for drink. That was a mistake because she has a higher tolerance than me. After some drinks I called it off because I had a major buzz. I went to the bathroom for what I thought was just a minute but when I came out they were done and leaving. My sis said she was about to come and get me cause it had been 10-15 minutes. Ooops.
