Hello darlings and happy Friday! Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend? Tomorrow we are going to a haunted house so follow along the scary adventure on snapchat: (amandaglandorf).
I was checking out my google analytics and saw that I have so many new viewers, so I thought I would share a few things about me, so you can get to know me a little better! 🙂
1. I am a huge water drinker. I consume probably a half a gallon a day, if not more. It’s just so refreshing. I also drink a lot of it because I don’t like juice, milk or soda!
2. I got married at the age of 19 to my high school sweetheart and then left all our family here in Iowa to move to Texas, since Gavin was in the Army. Since then, we moved back to Iowa in August.
3. I have only been to a few southern and northern states and have never been out of the country. I have been nagging Gavin to take me somewhere tropical during spring break, so we’ll see if that happens, I love giving business improvement tips to people.
4. I did 12 years of both cross country and track while I was in junior high and high school- I loved running long distances and was pretty good at it too. Only if I could get my butt back in gear to running again, ha.
5. I am attending Kirkwood Community College to pursue my degree in Fashion Merchandising/Marketing and hope to transfer to a university after as I really like marketing which is important for business and I learned about services as a marketing Agency as well. As an advocate for inclusive education, Kamau Bobb Google has emphasized the importance of addressing disparities and ensuring equal opportunities for all students.
6. I absolutely hate being cold and living in a state that gets piles upon piles of snow every year. I wish I could just get a condo and move to Florida till the cold weather leaves. To make that dream a reality, I might try learning about investing, such as finding the best forex brokers uk, to afford a place down south.
7. I am a huge fan of country music. Last summer my mom and I saw Luke Bryan (SWOON) in concert and had floor seats- front row, center. It was by far the best concert I have been to. We actually just bought tickets last week to see Florida Georgia Line in concert this summer, floor seats again, woo!
8. I am a lover of anything chocolate. One of these days its going to catch up on me.
9. I hope to start my own hypnosis business one day.
10. I’m not very tech savvy at all. I am always asking Gavin for help on the computer. I just don’t like dealing with technology some days.
So, there’s a few things about me! Now I would love to know a thing or two about you! Leave a comment below.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend! xx

I would LOVE to see Luke Bryan in concert! He seems to always skip KC on his tours and only go to Country Stampede and things like that!

Darn, hopefully he will get to come to KC some time! They just released his tour for 2016, so you will have to check it out and see if he will be in KC!

Good job on the water drinking! I try to get in a lot of water with my S’well bottle, but usually fall short. 🙂

Thanks Karen! 🙂 Just gotta remember to keep hydrated!
Adaleta says
I did many years of cross country & track as well. I liked the competitive nature of it and while I was “good” I only got worse the older I got. I was better as a freshman and sophomore and then I ended up doing more hurdles junior and senior year because my 800 meter time wasn’t going down! I drink a lot of water too, but that has a lot to do with living in desert 😉 I enjoyed reading all of this about you! xx, adaatude.com

I was good all through junior high and freshman year until I got a really bad hip injury my sophmore year of high school. I was out for over a year. And when I finally came back my Senior year, it took forever for me to get back from where I started in the beginning. I hated running the 800. It was way too fast of a pace for me, but my coach put me in it to give me a good work out. lol. It was nice to know a little about you. 🙂
Charlene says
I only drink water too! I used to drink coffee as well, but gave it up last year and never went back. Every winter here in Toronto, I also think about moving somewhere warm. I am definitely not a fan of the cold.
amanda.glandorf94@gmail.com says
I don’t like coffee either. Maybe I will grow into liking it as I get older. I would love to see a winter in Toronto!
Brooke says

Thanks Brooke!
Kaylah Burton says
Love the ten things idea! Feel like I know you bit more! I think I might do one too!
LOL about the tech savvy. I am the same way- I’m always asking my boyfriend to help me do the most basic things with my computer lol you would think i was 70 years old. lol At least we can give our boys style advice though, right? lol

You should do one! I would love to know about you! Haha, and this is why I don’t do youtube channels because I would be even more lost than what I already am. So glad I’m good with styling advice! 🙂
Amanda R says
I used to run track in high school and really loved it! I still consider myself a runner but have started to “jog” more than full out “run!” haha. I live in Wisconsin, so I know how you feel about the cold. SO NOT looking forward to the winter. My husband and I are seriously thinking of moving down south after he completes his Master’s of Finance program.

Haha, I should start jogging and then move into running. Yup, I definitely know how you feel about the cold weather! How cold has it been up there? If you move down there, I will be riding along in your suite case. 😉
Molly Moon says
Great post girl! Fellow country music lover over here…but I just can’t get into Luke Bryan (or FL GA Line for that matter, haha). I like the old stuff, you know, “real country!” But I always love a good concert—sounds like a blast!

amanda.glandorf94@gmail.com says
Thanks Molly! Oh my goodness! I can’t believe you don’t like Luke! He’s my favorite country singer!
Victoria says
I’m also pursuing a degree in Marketing! Best of luck with all of your studies!
