About Me

Hey y’all!

This is me.

This is where I live.

Here are a few things about me you should know:

  • I went to North Carolina State University. That is the Wolfpack, not the Tarheels. If you ever associate me as a UNC Tarheel our friendship will be over instantly.
  • I have a golden retriever named Sadie. I love her, a lot. She is cuter than your kids.
  • I now live in Washington DC and work for a grassroots non-profit. That means I write, I am political, and by political I mean republican. (and by republican, I mean I am a republican, not my organization.)
  • I love the beach and the mountains for two totally different reasons. I love laying out in the sunshine, getting a tan while reading a book on the beach, but I could be just as happy high up in a hammock reading a book in the mountains.
  • If you didn’t grasp this, I love to read.
  • I love to laugh. I am also really sarcastic… take it or leave it.
  • My life’s wish is to be able to order everything in the J.Crew catalog.
  • July 4th is my favorite holiday. Merica. 
  • I have three brothers.
  • I like to shoot guns.
  • The bane of my existence is brushing my hair. But really… I HATE brushing my hair.
  • I have way too many Vera Bradley bags. In the same point… I have way too many bags monogrammed. Actually, everything is monogrammed.
  • Purple is my favorite color.
  • I don’t really consider small dogs, dogs. They are in the same boat as cats. Meow.
  • I am not ashamed in my love for Justin Bieber.
  • Snowboarding >>>>>>>>>> skiing
  • I will probably offend you at least once.
  • I hate wearing pants.
  • I’m a Pepper, Dr. Pepper.
  • I hate bridges over water.
  • Mac >>>>>>>> PC
  • Favorite food = Taco Bell.
  • I have this weird love for all New England sports teams (Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics) even though I hate the north…
  • The south will rise again. 
Get to know my people:

The love of my life. Yes, that is Nicholas Sparks. Yes, he is married to someone other than me.

Sadie-Grey. Yes, I double named my dog.

Mother Dearest. Aka Santa’s Mistress

Pops

John Robert. Brother #1

Jared. Brother #2

Jacob. He’s adopted.

That is about all ya’ll need to know!  If you want to know more just keep reading. :)

  2. Love it. Can’t wait to read how your last semester at State goes. It’s a sad prospect, but then you get out and make your own impact. =)

  3. Glad to have found your blog! I love the politics behind your title, may not have to do with politics but I was recently kissed by an elephant in Thailand! I’m from VA and graduated college last year…I’m traveling and working in Thailand right now which is crazy! I hope you definitely get the chance to travel overseas!

    • Yes, politics is def. behind my blog! Thanks for commenting it is nice to know who is out there reading it! I have traveled overseas before and I loved it. I cannot wait to go back. I hope your trip goes great and I will be checking out your blog!

  4. Katelyn,

    Send me some information as to what kind of work you want to do. There is so many options. When are you wanting to start working?

    • Hey Ricky, can you really help her?? That would be fantastic!! She loves DC …wants to work there. She graduates MAY 14th, so any time after that she can start working somewhere. :)
