Seven random facts about Kalyn:

1.   I am currently a college junior majoring in Biochemistry with a minor in English at a small liberal arts college outside of Pittsburgh.  My first two years were spent at a southern school in which I was a Division I athlete.  It was a tough decision for me to leave the south, but with injuries and being burnt out on my sport...I decided I could no longer deal with early morning practices and six hours a day revolving around my sport.  So, here I am...missing the south, the weather, and my friends...Yet having an absolute blast spending time in Annapolis, D.C., and my beloved Pittsburgh.


2.   As many of you know, I am pretty crazy for this boy named Pat.  However, how we met is quite humorous.  Read it here...I promise you will laugh...plus there is Nautical Fashion found within.

3.  I have a huge obsession with dresses.  As well as only wearing them a few times after purchasing them because I have too many.  This year when I moved back to colder climates, I had to force myself to shy away from them.


My Coastal Skimmers!

4.  I love duck boots.  They are my favorite shoe, hands down.  I can't really explain my love for them, except for growing up in them...and how convenient they are.  I highly recommend L.L. Bean's Coastal Skimmers.  They are flats, with a convenient duck boot feel, and are ridiculously comfy.


5.  The sports I have been involved in:  Field Hockey, Lacrosse, Tennis, Cross Country, and Swimming.

6.   If I get lazy and oversleep before class you will find me wearing:

  • Polo oxford
  • Skinny Jeans
  • Sperrys
  • Hair in a messy bun
Sad to say, this happens more days than it should.  I blame it on the fact that I have no one to impress (other than my nerdy science professors who prefer lack of personal grooming) given the fact Pat is on lockdown until the weekends.


7.  I love my pup!

I've been sporting the messy bun a lot lately! My hair takes 45 minutes to straighten and with all of my schoolwork, I have just not been in the mood! I went back and read the story about how you and Pat met--so adorable! It's so crazy that a guy you met on a cruise became your serious bofriend! Love it!

P.S. Thanks for tagging me! You are so sweet!
