So I've been sitting on the lounge, watching Judge Judy trying to think of seven interesting facts about myself. (I'm now watching The Bold And The Beautiful. Thats how long I've been trying to come up with something interesting about myself, times seven.)
1. I buy way too many clothes. I still have clothes in bags, and with tags still attached, trying to think of a perfect occasion to wear the clothes, and then go and buy more new clothes. It's the same with shoes. It's an evil addiction, but it's better then drugs.
2. I love tea of all sorts. Iced tea. Hot tea. Tea in mugs. Tea in cups. Buying tea. Making my own tea. Tea cups. Tea pots. Tea pot cosies. Flavoured tea. Traditional tea. I love opening the cupboard in the kitchen with all the boxes of tea bags and smelling the aroma. Im jealous of Ramona Flowers tea collection. Every time I'm in Sydney, I go to T2, and try the tea they are sampling that day, and smell all the pots of tea, and usually end up buying a new box of tea.
3. I'm an accident waiting to happen. I've broken my right wrist in the same place twice. I've broken my left wrist once. I've broken a finger or two, and a toe. I've cracked my nose. I'm always spraining and straining muscles. I think I look weird when I don't have at least one bruise somewhere on my body. There is an assortment of ice packs and ice bricks in my freezer, awaiting an injury. I have an assortment of different sized bandages, awaiting an injury.
4. I love collections. I have a fairy collection, an owl collection, a shoe box collection, a lipgloss collection and a nail polish collection. I also collect wine corks for my cat, as she finds them more exciting to play with then the expensive cat toys my mum and I buy her.
5. When I get a house of my own, I want to have an extra room to turn into a library. I want to fill the room with lots of massive bookshelves and a few comfy chairs and a soft rug. I love reading. I love books. I love going into bookshops. I love the smell of new books. I love the smell of some old books. I love how I can escape my life, and enter someone elses life in a story. I love reading about other peoples lives and experiences.
6. I dance alot. I dance in shops when good songs come on. I dance in the street, and on the beach and in parks. I dance at work. I go out with friends and dance the night away. I dance on the walk home.
I was in the dance group in primary school. I did Irish dancing for four years. I've done jazz and hip hop. I'm now into my second year of pole dancing.
Its the excitement of getting dressed up and doing your hair and makeup and performing in front of an audience. Its about having fun and getting fit and toned at the same time. Its about making new friends. Its about learning new things.
7. Im scared of thunder storms and ducks. When I was younger, I went for a bike ride, and my mum walked with me. on the way home, it started storming, and I freaked out and started screaming and crying. My mum had to carry me, and my bike home. Im now nearly 24, and Im still scared of storms. I no longer scream and cry, but I jump and freak out, and if Im in bed, I will hide under the blankets.
When I was three, I was at the Botanic Gardens, when a duck bit me on the bum. Ever since then, I've been scared of ducks. Its a ridiculous thing to be scared of, as they are rather cute, but I don't always see them as being cute. I see them as attackers. When I was in high school, I actually ran away from a duck that quacked in my direction. Everyone laughed at me, but I was safe inside, and away from the duck. I still don't go near ducks. But I do love chickens, and would love a pet chicken or two.
Now to nominate others for the award! Most of my fave blogs I read, haven't had a new post for quite a months, so I won't be nominating 15.

I had a similar experience with poultry (aha), but it was with a whollllle flock of geese. They all came running at me and honking and flapping their wings so now I dont like geese. Haha.
I've always said I will have a library when I finally get my own place! Its a must! xx
