All About Me
Taylor Thompson
My Background♥
I was born in FairFax, VA where I lived until I was two. From there I moved to Lincolnton, NC and attended school there until I ended 2nd grade and finally transferred into the Newton-Conover School System over at South Newton Elementary. My parent's are divorced: I live with my mom and have one sister who is 4 years younger. School is and has always been a huge part of my life.. My academic goals include finishing as salutatorian and attending NC State or Clemson to major in engineering!
Cheerleading
I have been a cheerleader every year since third grade. These years include cheering for the school teams such as the South Newton Wolverines and the NCMS & NCHS Red Devils. Also, I have cheered competitively for Cheer Xplosion All-Stars!
Invovlement
I enjoy getting involved in just about anything and everything! From academic clubs, to community service organizations, to athletic events, to a variety of summer camps, I'm always eager to jump in and particpate.. It's what I love to do!
Health & Fitness
Being active and healthy is a huge part of my daily routine. With several diabetics in my family, maintaining my well-being is a big priority in my mind. I go the gym about 3 times a week and run on most off-days. I eat healthy and monitor what foods I eat; however, a little ice cream doesn't hurt every once in a while! :)
Jesus Christ♥
My relationship with God is very important to me. I was born into, baptized in, and ultimately raised in the Presbyterian church. Ever since, I have remained strong in my christian faith, yet I recently converted by joining the Methodist Church. Christ is #1 in my life and will always be. With him, all things are possible!
Drawing & Painting
Although I'm geeky and love math, I also have a creative side. I have a passion for drawing, painting, sketching, etc.. just about everything in that field! Just letting your emotions pour out onto a canvas or piece or paper through the simple movements of your hand is one of the greatest feelings!
Shopping!
One of my worst addictions would probably be shopping! Whether I'm by myself, with friends, or with family, shopping is always one of the first things to be done on a day out. My favorite store would definitely have to be Forever 21 & shoes probably make the top of the list of favorite things to buy seeing as I have over 100 pairs!
Science
My history of science in school isn't the best, even back in the elementary school years. Math has always been something I'm good at, but science..not so much. They say the two come hand in hand but for me science is more of a struggle. Until chemistry my junior year of high school, I hadn't really understood or learned much in a science class. However, I feel that sciences that incorporate math into them aren't as much of a hassle, and I actually find them very interesting!
