All About Me

A personal Q&A about myself

All About Me
Emily Haupt

I had a busy week. Between work and homework, I really did not have much time to get out of the house, so I didn’t get any inspiration on what to write about this week. I thought it would be different to answer some questions about myself so you guys can relate to me more and get a sense of who I am and where I come from. I did not make these questions up on my own, so I have to give credit where credit is due.

Who is your hero?

I would have to say my dad is my hero. He never gives up and is always there for his family. He is 51 and is still riding in 150-mile bike races and gets up every other day at five in the morning to play basketball.

What would you change about yourself if you could?

I know people might get frustrated when I say this but I think I would change my weight.

What really makes you angry?

I think what makes me the most angry is when people judge and make fun of others just to make themselves feel better.

What are your religious viewpoints?

I’m a Christian.

What is your favorite game or sport to watch and play?

I love playing basketball. I’ve played since I was six years old, but I like to watch baseball.

Have you ever had a nickname? What is it?

My teammates used to call me the purple monster because at basketball camp in eighth grade I was on the purple team.

Would you rather win the lottery or work at the perfect job? And why?

I know some of you might say “yeah right,” but honestly, I think work at the perfect job because having a job gives you a sense of worth and I wouldn’t want to become privileged and lazy.

What are your hobbies?

I like playing basketball, exercising, hanging an having fun with my friends, chilling with my family, and taking pictures.

List two pet peeves.

When people talk behind someone’s back and then 0.5 seconds later are back to being best friends and when people judge a book by its cover.

How many pillows do you sleep with?

I sleep with three. I have my two regular pillows and my long body pillow.

What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)?

I have gone 49 hours without sleep before because I procrastinated and had to stay up to finish a big chemistry lab report.

How often do you buy clothes?

Not as often as a lot of girls. I used to be bad with that but since I started working I wanted to spend my money on concert tickets, sporting events, etc. So I buy new clothes maybe once a month.

Are you a clean or messy person?

I am definitely a clean person I hate when things are messy and dirty.

What's your favorite movie?

Now You See Me or Now You See Me 2

If you could live anywhere, where would it be?

I would like to live in Greece or Australia. I think they are both breathtaking.

What is your biggest fear?

I know this is a little over the top but my biggest fear is drowning. I also hate spiders and not a fan of heights.

What did you want to be when you were small?

I used to want to be a teacher.

What two radio stations do you listen to in the car the most?

Since the radio stations are different everywhere I listen to country (not the twangy kind) and I listen to today’s hits.

Do you love or hate roller coasters?

Since I hate heights I’m not a fan of roller coasters and if I do ride them my eyes are shut the entire time.

What's your favorite fast food chain?

Sheetz because you can also be healthy there even though I usually never pick the healthy options.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
