When I was younger, my parents got divorced. I lived with my mom half the time, and my dad half the time. Since my dad was a single father, and I was the only child he had ever raised, he stuck with what he knew best. He signed me up for sports when I turned three years old and bought me clothes from the boy's section at the store.
I obviously did not care because all the boys in my kindergarten class thought I had the coolest shoes.
1. I Was Always Involved In Sports
From the time I was three years old until junior year of high school, I was always playing sports. That is how I grew up. My parents signed me up for baseball and basketball when I was three. My life was on the softball field, on the basketball court, or the golf course for a pretty long time. I loved playing basketball outside with the boys that lived around me because I knew I could always beat them.
2. I Only Wanted To Wear Sweats And Sneakers
If we are being completely honest, nothing has changed. At all. I would choose to wear comfy clothes over a cute outfit any day. I think I liked to dress sporty when I was younger because it made me feel cool and athletic. Now, I wear those clothes because it is comfy and I still don't like to dress up.
3. I Don't Like To Wear Makeup Or Do My Hair
Someone bought me this shirt and it couldn't more fitting for me. First off, I don't like to wear a lot of makeup because...
1. makeup is expensive
2. it clogs up your pores
3. I am very bad at doing make up and
4. it is such a hassle
I am going to be 20 years old and I do not know how to put on face make up. There are so many different make up products to choose from and I just really do not care about any of it. You're welcome mom that I never got super excited to go to Sephora except to get my face wash. And yes, it is true. I never do my hair. I have super curly hair so normally I take a shower and let it air dry, and it just does whatever it wants. Most of the time, my hair is in a bun or ponytail of some sort.
4. I Am Very Competitive
Since I grew up playing sports, I have a natural competitive side to me. While at Auburn, I played on as many intramural teams as I could. During basketball, I pushed some girls down and would yell at them to back off of me. I most likely did this because I was losing, and I do not like to lose. Being competitive is a good thing, because it always makes me want to do better. Not just when I play sports, but in life too.
5. I Want To Pursue A Career Revolved Around Sports
At Auburn, I am majoring in Media Studies, but I want to have more of a concentration in sports. I didn't know what I wanted to major in until going into my sophomore year at college. I was talking to my parents and they told me that I love to talk and I love sports and media. So boom. Auburn had the perfect major for me. Whenever I tell people what my major is, they always ask, "So what are you going to do with that?" There are many things that you can do with that major. I would love to work for ESPN or Fox Sports and be an analyst or even with the production team. But because of my upbringing and how much sports have impacted my life, I want to pursue a career still involving sports even though I am not playing.
