Wacky Things About Me

The 25/50/100 random things about me tag is getting around a lot recently and as I'm sat at home listening to the aggressive howlings of the wind and drowning my sorrows in a whipped cream and marshmallow infested hot chocolate as Valentines day approaches (forever alone), I decided to jump on the bandwagon and have a go myself, so here goes...

 1. I never take myself too seriously

2. When I was little, my Dad made me believe there was a ghost living in our house, 'Barney' and I always tried to befriend Barney by leaving him cookies when I go to sleep and talking to him (myself) when I was alone in my room... my parents did worry

3. I used to be a Stardoll addict a few years ago, I have been clean for 7 years now

4. I am easily scared. I accidentally poked my friend in the eye, out of fear, whilst watching, not playing it myself but WATCHING someone else on YouTube play slender

5. I have a severe case of selective hearing as well as a short attention span, but surprisingly, I'm a good listener

6. I laugh a lot

7. I'm allergic to cats and it doesn't help when I stay over my friends house as her cat enjoys sitting on my face when I'm asleep, Kinky Kitty

8. I developed a hatred for apples when I was about 7. I was eating an apple from my packed lunch and it pulled out my tooth 

9. When I'm 30, my little sister will be 12 (I feel so old)

10.  I was in Sugar Magazine, once upon a time

15 year old me lovin' life (sugar mag) / I gon' be 30 and she gon' be 12?!

11. When I was about 6, whenever my tummy was hurting I used to think I was magically pregnant.. I have no idea why. And following that, at 8, I thought if you kissed a boy on the lips, this was how you got pregnant, you have no idea how I much I freaked out when a boy kissed me whilst playing kiss chase. The innocence

12. I can be quite ditzy sometimes, I need to learn to think before I speak

13. I got to sit with the pilots on one of those little planes once. That was when I discovered my fear for heights

14. Eventhough I sometimes come across very girly, I'm actually quite tomboyish 

15. I'm allergic to Pineapple, from all things, Pineapple ... ...

16. I can dislocate my shoulder 

17. I know all the words to the 1st High School Musical soundtrack, and more embarrassing the dance to we're all in this together... get'cha head in the game! 

18. I do a weird little (sometimes subtle) embarrassing shriek whenever I trip or fall, I have no idea why, but it has become a habit - I am a tad clumsy, I managed to break a plate WHILST eating the food on the plate, next thing you know, it's on the floor. It all happened so fast

19. I can put both legs behind my head ... I am a freak of nature 

20. I can be a little (very) weird .. sometimes...

as evidenced 

21. I have a very large family on my mum side, I have a total of 36 1st cousins (probably missing someone out), who live all around the world, which is always the greatest excuse to travel. 

22. I have 1 older brother (who has thee most difficult name to pronounce, my parents got a bit carried away with the Arab inspired names) and a 1 year old sister, Bzi (bitsy) who is half Filipino and German. I'm currently living with middle child syndrome, and here I was thinking it won't affect me at 19

23. My first celebrity crush was Orlando Bloom when I went to see The Lord of the Rings, it's obvious to say the 7 year old me had great taste ;)

24. I got bitch slapped by a monkey on holiday once, most bizarre thing

25. I still check under my bed for monsters, I also can't sleep with my wardrobe doors open. I blame Monsters Inc, that film ruined me. But it would be quite cool to have a monster like Sully coming out to scare me

 I hope you enjoyed this post, I sure had me some fun writing it. Me and my Dad are currently trying to calm our giggles on the memories of the silly things I did and believed as a child - I was such a weird littlen (I'm saying this like I'm no longer a massive weirdo) I shall end this with one more thing,
I take the crusts off my bread, yep I'm one of those people .. and don't get me started on the first and last piece of bread ..

ps. excuse the lame mirror selfies, I was feeling spontaneous
