On the Wagon!

I usually don't jump on the bandwagon but this time I just couldn't pass it up. It looks like so much fun! So without further ado, I've joined in for the Blog Bash! 
Blog Bash
First, I need to introduce myself to new readers: 
I'm Jennifer, I'm in my mid-20's, born and raised in West Virginia and graduated from Marshall University. I'm a big fan of traveling and do it as often as possible. I love to watch reality television, take ridiculous photos of me with food, blog and in the winter you can usually find me knitting and eating popcorn. I usually can be found on the go. If I have at least 2 days off in a row, I'm usually trying to go on a road trip. I hate being tied down and hope to one day have enough money to just travel non stop. 

Since graduating college (4 years ago...ekk!), I have moved several times. For awhile, I lived in the deep south, working for a government program. It was a great learning experience. Since then, after many different factors, I now reside back in my hometown and am planning a cross country move (which gets closer every day thank goodness). I also have an amazing family, a great circle of friends and someone special in my life. I feel very blessed and hope that life will continue to be filled with happiness and success. 

And now for the Blog Bash questions:
Why do you blog? 
I originally decided to start blogging with a friend for fun. If you go back to my very first post at the end of 2008 you'll see that it's not an "I" post. My best friend and I started blogging but after about 3 weeks, I decided to take it over and it be my space. Now I blog because I want to. It makes me happy and it lets me talk about things that I may or may not get to bring up other times. 
What do you blog about?
Basically anything! I talk about my crazy travel adventures, my neighbors, my daily life, sometimes work but never my relationship. I use to talk about my relationship but then stopped altogether. Slowly, I've been hinting back at it and I'm actually thinking of just revealing us with a photo on here. Good idea or bad idea? I can't decide Haha!

What do you find to be the biggest award you get from blogging?
Hands down, the people. Everyone (excluding one) that I've came into contact with have been nothing but supportive, caring, loving and all around awesome. I love getting to "meet" new people and share in their lives. 
How long have you been blogging?
I started blogging at the end of 2008 and haven't looked back. I love it and as far as I can see, I'm going to keep doing it.
Let's hear the story behind your blog title!
It's me! I'm always getting into Crazy Shenanigans. Live is never boring and it's never predictable. I live and work through it all one crazy adventure at a time and I wouldn't have it any other way. This is my life and I'm living it to the fullest.

This was great! I love learning more things about fellow bloggers! That's funny you took over the blog after you two started. I never knew you were in a relationship? But then again you don't post about it. :) Details missy!

Yea! I'm so glad you joined in on the fun!

As for pictures of you and your man, I understand your hesitation. Sometimes it is nice to keep some things to yourself. ;O)

I swear I wasn't crazy when I thought you were moving. Maybe I just got the place wrong...or did I? Hmm, I've never jumped on one of these either, maybe I'll have to see what it's all about.

I'm glad you jumped on the bandwagon. It's nice to "meet" you. After reading this post I'm ready to pack up some junk food and the car and take a trip..anywhere! Sounds like fun.

On the relationship photo...do it when you are ready. If you don't feel comfortable with it yet, hold off. Even though you have now made all of us curious =)
