25 Things + Things!
1. Im a very picky eater. And a strange one too. For example if coleslaw {which i detest with every fibre of my being} is touching something that i like, then i cant physically eat the thing. Even if its barely touching my nice food, i still cant do it.
2. I love traveling more than anything else in the world. I've done a good bit of it too. But there are places that i cant physically wait to go, my biggest desire is travel the islands of the South Pacific. Im heading to Fiji at the end of this year, but man there are so many places i want to go and see.
3. Im a social smoker, only when i've had a few drinks on me do i smoke. And not a whole lot either, 2 or 3 max. I think its a great way of meeting people.
4. I have never had a boyfriend and although i'm still very young at 23 to be saying this, i cant honestly see myself ever having that relationship. Of course i want to, but i think i'd be ok if the right person never came along. As long as i can have children, thats fine by me.
5. Having said that, when it comes to romance. Meeting Mr. Right in a nightclub or a bar really doesnt do anything for me and i hope i dont met that person that way. Im super romantic though and expect to be approached and wooed. Its a simple idea but i have yet to experience it.
6. I love board games and i have collected 6 different versions of Monopoly which is naturally one of the best board game ever. I've been hunting for a game called 221B Baker Street which i had as a child and it was epic.
7. I do a mean Nambian accent. Random but true. Only when drunk people, thats the only time i accept requests.
8. I do not know the words to my national anthem. But i make them up when the time comes.
9. I have always lived by a body of water, namely the ocean and dont think i could live inland. I just love either being able to look out my window and see the sea or being a short walk from it. Its soothing.
10. Even though i've only been in Australia for 2 months, i'm looking forward to spending a few more years away. I want to live in New Zealand for a year, and i really want to live in Canada {Nova Scotia to be exact} for another year. Whether this will happen i dont know. The current economic crisis is really affecting Ireland badly, there is no hope of finding a job there at the moment.
11. I have so many ideas for books but cant for some reason write them down. It annoys me. If SMeyers can be a popular novelist than why the hell can't I?
12. My ideal job would be writing books whilst living somewhere gorgeous like Spain or Italy. One day!
13. I remember having 2 very vivid dreams as a very young child, 3 or 4 years old, the events of which i am convinced actually happened to me. According to my mother they didnt. I remain unconvinced.
14. I have never kissed a girl but would like to one day, just to see what its like. Pretty much everyone i know has kissed a girl.
15. Everynight before i go to sleep i think of a story, sometimes these stories take months to play out in my head and had one such story that i kept going for 2 years! It was epic and i mean to write it down one day. Sometimes when im bored in work or on the bus i'll revisit it and change some parts of it.
16. I believe in God. And if on a plane journey or hoping someone is well i start off with "Dear God, you are a good God and a great God. Thank you God." Im not at all religious, i dont attend church, dont believe in the bible. But i completely and utterly believe there is something high and almighty guiding us through. I call him God.
17. When i worked in a bookshop {hang on when havent i ever not worked in a bookshop?} i completely judged people who bought books from the 'self-help' section. I can't stand that stuff, how on earth can a book sort out your life? Its rubbish in my eyes.
18. I sometimes cant believe there were dinosaurs. It baffles me. I almost start believing its a myth, like that just boggles my mind.
19. I find Jewish men extraordinarily sexy. I've never known any Jews but damn i need to get me one.
20. I dont like alcohol. The only reason i drink it is to get drunk so i can fit in with my friends. It gives me liquid courage, otherwise i would never met men. That makes me sad.
21. I love my friends to bits. But there not the 'right' friends for me. And because of them i have dumbed myself down so much that i dont think i'd be able to have an intelligent conversation with someone. I'm looked on as the bimbo of the group but really i like to think i'm quite bright.
22. My biological father is not apart of my life. Only for a small period of when i was a young child. I have a handful of memories of him. My mother has NEVER spoken to me about him. She has never once mentioned him. I find it odd but im too afraid to ask about him, because if i know about him then he becomes apart of my life and i dont want that. I think that when i start a family i'll one day ask her, but for now my life is pretty complete not knowing.
23. I used to write Nsync fanfiction when i was 16, and although at the time i thought they were fantastic stories, looking back they are insanely rubbish. The thing though is at 16 i had no problem letting my whole year in secondary school read these stories, 70+ girls reading my stories about Nsync, now i dont even have the courage to show my friends anything i've written. I wonder when i became afraid of what people think of me?
24. My Ipod has the best music ever! Its a fact. And on Roadtrips it is the only Ipod that is ever allowed to be played. Im immensely proud of that fact!
25. I'm extremely happy that i moved to Australia. I dont think it was necessarily a brave choice, just something that had to be done. Plus there was nothing at home to stay there for.
-Still unemployed! Woot!!!!!! Who needs a job anyways. To be honest i havent looked for one in the past 3 weeks, so there may be the reason as to why i dont have a job!
-My best friend Gigi arrives on Friday to stay for the rest of the year! Cannot wait to see her and be joined at the hip again!
-The tan is coming along nicely. Thank you very much. Though i would be as brown as a berry if you were able to buy a factor less than 30 over here. I miss wearing factor 8! Stupid NSW laws.
