Lets see, I chopped of 10 inches of hair for locks for love, traveled across the world alone to study abroad in Australia and wanted a new hobby so I just signed up for photography classes! All while being a single independent lady about to turn 30, ugh!

I’m BOLD! I went to Haiti one summer when I was in college to help build a hospital run by a Pignon, Haitian born Dr. Guy Theodore… I auditioned for 2 plays in school on a lark and was cast… I spent a year in Austria as an exchange student in college after only one year of German…
MelanieO says
I’M BOLD!
Right after New Year’s, I quit a job that has been making me miserable, before finding another job. However, the peace of mind I gained was absolutely worth the couple of times I’ve awoken at 3am in a cold sweat…and freelance projects have begun to trickle in!

Krystal says
I’M BOLD!
When I was a kid, I used to drag my trampoline right under the treehouse, and then I’d jump out the treehouse window for the ultimate bounce. It was a pretty brave move, considering it once resulted in having the wind knocked out of me and a sprained back (oh yeah, and my dad disassembled my trampoline after that…)
Jen says

I’m BOLD!
Background story: I never dance in front of people. I’m just too self-conscious…
So…a year ago, at my sister’s wedding, I had to make a speech. After talking,…blah, blah, blah… I pointed to the DJ and he started Flo Rida’s Low. You know the one, “Apple bottom jeans, boots with the fur…”
Anyhow, in front of 100 guests, I got down with my bad self. Needless to say, I had people crying (from laughter) because it was so unexpected.
courtney says

After budget cuts at the school I taught at left my jobless, I packed up my things and moved across the country from Delaware to California! I’ve only lived in Jersey and Delaware and never had been past Indianapolis before, but I’ve moved and never been happier with a decision!
That being said, after the move, my walls are still fairly bare and could use some cool artwork ;)
