100 Facts About Me Challenge

This was a project/challenge I was assigned in college, 10 years ago. A decade later, I thought I would do it again and challenge other bloggers to do this too. It really gets hard to think of things as you go!

Rules/Suggestions

  • No facts that can help someone stalk you or another person. (cities you live in, phone numbers, schools, etc.)
  • Try not to break one fact into multiple ones, keep things interesting for your readers.
  • Think about your life experiences that are unique to you.
  • Yes, there’s a lot of food you like, but we don’t need 50 facts that just say “I love pizza, I love skittles, etc” Pick a few and leave it at that. The same goes for any other subject that you can make a lot of repetitive facts about. Again, we want this to be interesting to read!
  • Have fun with it!
  • When you share your post on social media, use the hashtags #100factsblogchallenge #100factschallenge so we can find each other’s posts!
