fun facts
about Tenisha
When you were a kid was your
dream job to be an author?
Nope. I have always
wanted to be an artist.
What is your favorite sport?
I love to watch baseball, especially my favorite team
the Oakland Athletics (Go A's).
I only participated in
one sport growing up,
Kenpo Karate. I blink WAY to much to play in any sport where a ball can come flying
at me from anywhere!
What is your favorite food?
Hands down ice cream!
Just don’t listen to my friend Teri, as she
doesn’t consider ice cream to be “food”, ha!
What is your favorite animal?
I am a huge dog lover. I even have a dog shaped piggy bank, as I’m saving up to adopt one from an animal shelter (hopefully soon).
What is your favorite car?
I don’t have a favorite car.
But taco trucks are awesome!
