Thing #2

Well, I haven't given up yet...

2. Describe 3 legitimate fears you have and explain how they became fears.



Agh. I hate this. I don't talk about stuff I'm afraid of, not seriously. Here goes...

1. My family dying. This is actually a recent thing - Obviously no-one wants their family to die, but I get flashes about it. Like, if my parents & sisters are travelling somewhere, I get an image of answering the phone to be told that their car has crashed & suddenly, I'm all alone. It's not rational & it's DEFINITELY not nice.
2. I'm terrified about moving to Germany this year. I joke about how weird it will be, or brush it of as 'only a year', but I'm afraid that I'll find it too hard, that I'll miss everyone, that I'll miss out on stuff going on at home... It only hit me last week that this is it, I am going. Scary!
3. Love. For reals. Put simply - If you love someone, it's a bazillion times worse if someone hurts you or gets hurt. I'm only even talking about friends & family, if you love & trust them, it's scary to thin of how much they could hurt you. But you have to hope they love you enough not to. Similarly, if you love someone, when something happens them, it's tough to watch. So I have a fear of love.

I probably come off as crazy, but they are three of my fears! What're yours?

Thing #1

So, for the next 30 days I shall be posting about a daily topic from the 30 Things list. First up..

1) List 20 random facts about yourself.
Just in case all my tag posts with facts weren't enough for you! I'll try pop up with 20 interesting things.. Try.

1. I can't roll my tongue. It took me quite a while to realise that was even a thing.
2. I count the lines in a sentence when reading books, magazines, etc.
3. I hate wearing PJs, they make me feel really uncomfortable.. Shorts & a T-Shirt please.
4. On my old laptop, I had a 99% win streak on Freecell.
5. I constantly face the dilemma: I love getting my make up done but doing it myself relaxes me.
6. I sit on the train, listening to my iPod, pretending I'm in a film/music video.
7. I have to make my bed first thing every morning.
8. I will listen to a song/ eat a food/ wear a piece of clothing daily until I'm sick of it.
9. I hate being touched. Cuddling, etc doesn't go down well.
10. I am getting two goldfish when I'm in final year of college & calling them Cocoa Pops & Crunchy Nut.
11. I'm considering getting my collarbones, tongue or anti-navel pierced.
12. I love stories about Ouija boards & scary stuff.
13. I am in love with freckles. I want MORE.
14. I don't wear jeans, I think I'm afraid they'll catch in my dermals.
15. I think life is too short to regret silly things, or stay mad at people.
16. I'm going to the zoo this week. I hope.
17. I also want to have a barbecue.. But I hate BBQ food.
18. The thing that really annoys me is people letting children run riot in shops. Maybe it's just because we have power tools, saws, chain & so on on display.
19. None of my mum's friends knew I existed. They thought it was just my parents & 3 younger sisters..
20. I am unbelievably fickle with my hair, music & make up but very reliable for friends!

30 Things

Hello!
After the whole broken laptop saga, I took a little break because (a) I had no way of posting & (b) I was supposed to be studying. I'm still in the process of doing exams, so because reviews, etc might be low on the ground, I'm borrowing a post from Aoife. I wanted to do BEDM but it's now almost half way through May so I'll be doing 30 things instead. Starting tomorrow.. Brace yourselves. PS Let me know if you're doing BEDM or are going to do this series!
