Niner Nuggets with Jessica
Nickname: Oldie
Favorite Food: Monterrey's Cheese Dip
Least favorite Food: sauerkraut
Nobody knows how much I like to ... knit.
Nobody knows how good I am at ... chess.
Favorite TV show ... VH1 reality shows "Kept" and "Stripsearch", because they're both about egotistical men and it's fun to laugh at them.
Blaring on her iPod: Incubus, Switchfoot, Kenny Chesney and LeAnn Rimes.
How she gets pumped for a match: Right before we are announced, the lights go off and the "get pumped" music comes on ...
Best advice I've received: Don't let the thoughts of others affect your decisions, be independent and do things because you want to do them. Don't count you chickens before they have hatched (I do that a lot). Wear your seat belt.
