First Post / About Me

*Shakes out jitters*

Alright. I must admit, I'm a little nervous about starting a blog. I've made several in the past, but I never really had anything interesting to share. (Xanga.com, anyone?) This blog will be different, and completely unlike anything I have done before. 

I plan to discuss things that interest me, some current events, and my opinions on life in general. But first, I figured you'd want to learn a little bit about me. So let's get right into it, shall we?


About Me


Typical stuff: age/sex/location...

My name is Bianca, and I have natural hair. (More on that, later)

I am a 25-year old, black woman and I currently live in Maryland.

I'm a Christian. I don't know where I would be without Jesus in my life. He is truly amazing! My faith is a very important part of my life.

I recently got engaged to the most wonderful, caring, patient, loving guy! We're getting married in September 2015.

I'm a mechanical engineer. It's an extremely rewarding career, and plus, it pays the bills ;)



Personality

I can be kinda goofy at times, especially when I'm with my best friend.

I love to sing. Everywhere. I sung in all types of choirs from middle school through college. Nowadays I am writing my own songs with the help of Garageband and my guitar.

I don't wear makeup, just ChapStick. I feel like makeup hides my face and gives people a false impression of who I really am.

It's my life-long dream to visit all 50 states by the age of 50. I've already been to 24 of them!

Interests

I like to run. Last September, a friend invited me to run my first half-marathon at Virginia Tech (my alma mater), and I agreed. The training was really strenuous and long, but totally worth it. I'm actually running my second one next week!

I've got Apple everything: iPhone, MacBook Pro, iPad, iPod, etc. It's semi-obsessive. 

Random things about me...

Even though I know I'm lactose-intolerant, sometimes I still eat pizza. It's one of my favorite foods!

My favorite numbers are 5 and 32. The latter was my old basketball number in middle school. (#Ballin)

I've been hang gliding before. (Trust me, it's awesome and tons of fun!)




I think that's enough blogging for now. In my next post, I will share my natural hair journey.
