About Me (a random selection of facts)
•Name: Emily Lynn Schmitt
•Hometown: Hawkeye, Iowa
•Eye Color: Blue/gray
•Hair Color: Some people think it’s blonde, others say it’s brown. The sun gives it blonde streaks in the summer.
•Education: I’m graduating from Wartburg College in December with a degree in communication arts: public relations. When I leave the Wartburg bubble, I will have way more orange stuff than a non-Wartburger would ever dream of owning.
•Phobias: I am scared of baked beans. I am at the point where they can be on the table and I won’t panic as long as I don’t look at them directly. Also, I don’t like wrists because I’m terrified the veins on the inside of my wrist are going to burst open at any moment. Don’t laugh!
•Favorite Movie: I rarely watch movies and if I do I usually fall asleep so I never remember them anyway. My boyfriend is trying to get me caught up on some of the classics but it’s just so hard for me to focus on a TV screen for that long!
•Future Plans: I hope to move to Des Moines and have a job that is different every day. I’d prefer not to be stuck in a cubicle all the time and want interaction with people. I also plan to finally learn how to play the guitar I got for Christmas five years ago and learn ballroom dancing.
•Dairy Knowledge: I grew up on a dairy farm so I know a thing or two about cows. I went to nationals in 4-H dairy quiz bowl and went to nationals as a dairy foods judge in FFA. And I interned with Midwest Dairy Association last summer. You’d be surprised how often my dairy knowledge comes in handy.
