Get to Know Corinne

 Get to Know Me!

This blog post is a chance for you all to get to know me. I am going to share some basic facts about me. I may make a mini-series where I share more intimate facts or just funny things that happen to me day to day. These blogs will not be beauty related but serve as a way to get to know me on a more personal level.

Where were you Born?

I was born in Quincy, Il (it is right on the Mississippi river). It was Mother's Day and for being born on this day Mars Candy Bars gave me a $50.00 savings bond!! How sweet ;) I guess you can say that I gave my mom the best Mother's Day present ever, her first child! 

Any Siblings?

I have one sibling, a younger sister named Courtney. We couldn't be any more opposite and similar, but what sisters aren't. She had brown hair and a deeper complexion and I have red hair and super pale. I am told that we have similar voices that sound just like my mom. I love her to death and try to always look out for her.

Any Pets?

I have two pets, a cat named Sugar and a goldfish who is PJ. I have had sugar for as long as I can remember and I won PJ at a carnival 2.5 years ago. I love both of them so much and I don't know what I would do without them. While I am at school, my sister takes care of Sugar at home and PJ travels with me back and forth during breaks and the summer. 

What is your Major?

I am studying History with a Secondary Education minor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I am a junior and absolutely love being an Illini! I enjoy learning about the past and how it affects what we have today. I really look forward to becoming a teacher and sharing my passion of social sciences with future generations.

Who is your Dream Date?

My dream date is definitely Ryan Gosling! I think he is absolutely gorgeous and who wouldn't love to be on a date with Noah from The Notebook??? He just has eyes that look into your soul and touch you. I would absolutely be speechless (this NEVER happens) if he ever asked me out on a date. But if I had to choose a date with anyone alive or dead, I would definitely choose Abraham Lincoln (and here is where the history major kicks in haha). The reason being that I am really obsessed with learning about the Civil War (1861-1865) and how smoothly Lincoln handled the stress of the union breaking up in his first term as president. I would absolutely have a heart attack if this was possible. 

This was so fun to share all of these things with you all! If you have any questions you want me to answer in the next Get to Know Me! feel free to comment below and I will answer them. I hope that you found this interesting and stay tuned for more upcoming blogs about beauty and more!

as always <3,

Corinne
