☆★Aly★☆'s Interests
General
I love basically anything outdoors. Offroading, wakeboarding, camping, soccer, the beach, hiking, paintball, airsoft, kayaking, surfing, running, etc. But mainly, offroading. A few years ago I got stuck in a local mud hole and got pulled out by some guys with big jeeps... a month or so after that, gator4x4 was formed. The guys introduced me to rockcrawling, and I was instantly addicted. Some people call us crazy...
This is the tool of my obsession. This is the first picture I've taken since the 1/2 ton axle swap. Still gotta strech her, but everything is set up to do it, just gotta get the driveshafts done.
My ledge on trail 7. I hate this thing...its just flat out impossible to drive over. Travis is at the corner of my jeep trying to calm me down and get me up there, but man I was freaking out.
Me on that same ledge 1 year later. This time we decided to go down...which turns out was more unnerving than going up. After lots on winch cables and thankfully due to gravity I was able to make it this time.
About me: 'I'm not perfect. My hair doesn't always stay in place and I spill things a lot. I'm pretty clumsy and sometimes I'm unhappy for no reason. My friends and I sometimes fight and maybe some days nothing goes the way I wish it would. But when I think about it and take a step back, I remember how amazing life is and that maybe I like being unperfect :) .'
Lets get down to the point. I found this idea on some random persons page. Afterwards I felt like I really knew who she was. So heres all about me. I love...
- Laughing. All the time. At everything.
- My jeep...is my addiction. Without it I would go crazy.
- Sunsets are breathtaking. Anywhere.
- I love the smell of my grandmother's house. It follows me, and I notice the smallest traces of it nearly anywhere. Bliss.
- Freckles on boys' shoulders and back. Mm.
- Blue eyes.
- The feeling of riding a motorcycle. Having that much power between your legs gets the adrenalin going.
- C h o c o l a t e. Almost more addicting than my jeep!
- New car smells.
- Friends. They are my air. Without them, I cannot be.
- Making people smile around me. I cant stand making people sad...I will do anything I can to make those around me happy.
- Leopard print things are purely bad ass. Always has been, always will be.
- Getting my shoes muddy. Outwardly I act frustrated, but inside I'm smiling...
- If I could chose anywhere to live, It would be in the mountains.
- I suck at dealing with people. I never want to hurt anyone, but always manage to do so.
- Truffles! The chocolate kind...
- Reptiles, horses, and kittens.
- I like trying new things, and quitting once I finally get it down.
- Flying. Its amazing.
- The color green. Its my favorite color...shh...
I'm just starting to get into bikes. I got my motorcycle endorsment about a year ago, and since then i've ridden a Katana and a Gsxr monster...they were both great bikes, but not as great as my new baby:
Another one of my big interests is reptiles. I've loved them ever since I was a kid, and i have pictures from like 10 years ago of me and Abby holding garter snakes that we had caught. Abby's my best friend of like, forever if you didn't already know...
I love wakeboarding. I'm getting better!!! Gotta boat? TAKE ME OUT!
Hey! How sweet! I was thinking about you the other day too. :) I've been great. Went to a wedding this past weekend, and I started school again this week, and I can't wait for the Sex & the City movie. We should all go together on opening night! Let's try to set it up. :) (there's a few other girls that I'm supposed to see it with, but I don't think they can do it until sunday...we'll see. We should also try and plan a beach trip this summer. I was trying to plan a trip to NYC in a few weeks when my boss takes a vacation, but I dont think we'll be able to afford it.
I'm on a little island in Thailand called Koh Tao, it's so freakin beautiful, I want to move here. Miss you, hope all is well.. Email me and let me know whats been going on! Love ya.
I have the Insects, 3rd edition (Gullan and Cranston). I don't remember if that was the same book you used, but I can give it to Abby for you if you want--even though the semester's more than half way over!
