This is me...

I agree, what a great idea! Who doesn't like writing lists?

1. Mid-20s, born and raised in Central PA, but live in the DC metro area for about 3 years now.
2. Currently pursuing a PhD in Sociology/Demography & interning as a statistician.
3. Engaged to be married in May, 2012.
4. I love food and I love to cook. This works for and against me, depending on how focused on nutrition I am.
5. I love to read for pleasure, it's something I miss since starting grad school.
6. I've run two 5ks, am hoping to work toward an 8k this spring.
7. I enjoy spin classes, but I'm bad about going routinely.
8. I love a good wheat beer from a microbrewery, but this is a habit I need to cut back (to save calories AND money).
9. I love to travel, even if it's only a few hours away.
10. I've never been able to do a full, unassisted push-up. This is an eventual goal of mine.
