angie's photo


  1. I go by Ang or Angie...no one calls me by Angela aside from my grandma and relatives on my mom's side. Or my mom when's she's angry...but I suppose that hasn't happened in quite some time
  2. There are at least 15 other nicknames for me…
  3. I'm from the sandstone capital of the world - Amherst, Ohio. Population: 13,000. Its about 30 miles west of Cleveland and was a good place to grow up.
  4. I have two younger sisters, Amy and Carrie and I am the shortest of all three.
  5. I am left handed and completely right brained.
  6. My mom can ride a unicycle and juggle (at the same time). The circus could have used her…she probably missed her calling.
  7. My family has two Labradors: Molly (black) and Coco (chocolate - creative name Mom!) They are both fat cause we feed them people food.
  8. I grew up with a dog named Toby. He was a month older than me. He ate my first shoes my broke parents bought me. He lived to be 17.5...he was a great dog.
  9. Someday I want my own dog...but it wouldn't be fair to have one now. I'm never home and I travel a lot. Nevertheless, I really REALLY want one!
  10. Most of my Chicago friends are from Iowa.
  11. I miss college. Not the homework or the stress, but the all the amazing people and the warm fuzzies the University of Dayton embodies.
  12. My right eye opens less (especially when I smile) - I call it my weird eye.
  13. I prefer my margaritas on the rocks.
  14. I misspelled "OK" on a 2nd grade spelling test. To this day...Mom writes "KO" in emails.
  15. I love peanut butter...but I didn't realize it till freshman year of college. In fact, I've never had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
  16. I'm addicted to Diet Pepsi.
  17. I have unruly curly hair...I try to embrace it, but it has a mind of its own, so the straightening iron often defeats the curls. However, its generally tied back.
  18. I love CEDAR POINT and for about 10 yrs of my life I had a season pass each summer. Sometimes we'd go and not even ride anything. The magnum is my favorite coaster. No amusement park will ever top this one and I'll be forever spoiled.
  19. Emily is my best friend from college. We still call each other roommates.
  20. I make and sell my own jewelry.
  21. I don't own a car. I'd be happy never driving again.
  22. Weather often dictates my mood.
  23. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. The stuffing balls are the best part!
  24. I'm the friend that writes ridiculously long emails, sends real letters, takes a million pictures documenting every second of an evening and organizes events.
  25. I would love to be more spontaneous...but you can’t try or plan to be, then it doesn't work.
  26. Green, without question, is my favorite color.
  27. I snack on raw green beans.
  28. I try to work out most days.

  39. I'm subscribed to at least 5 magazines. Sometimes I have time to read them...
  40. I learned to type from talking on instant messenger freshman year of college. In high school, Mom would type my papers or I would write them out...yes, that was acceptable. I did take a typing class freshman year of high school...but I would cheat and look at my hands.

  42. I easily drink a gallon of water each day.
