Random facts about me:
- Since I was 18 I have lived in 7 different houses. That means on average I've moved every 20 months.
- I grew up in South London but have lived in Plymouth, St Austell (Cornwall) and Bedfordshire where I live now.
- I can only wink with my right eye.
- I can't say the word "pumpkin", it always comes out "punkin"!
- I love my kitchen gadgets! I have a breadmaker, food processor with eleventy billion attachments, blender, juicer, coffee machine...now I just need someone to do the cooking for me too...
- I am very emotional and often get teary eyed at soaps, documentaries, adverts, cartoons...anything really!
- When I was 17 I spent a summer decorating classrooms in my school with a group of my friends. We did them all in funky colours and patterns, were featured in my local paper and got paid for it!
- After not doing very well in my A-levels I completely changed the course I was doing at university to Drama Studies with English Literature. It was the best thing I have ever done.
- I am a qualified Primary teacher, although I haven't taught in more than 5 years.
- I have a scar in my right eyebrow from where my other half shut my head in a window. Accidentally, apparently...
- The most fun I ever had at work was working as a telesales agent for a double glazing company! Seriously, it's a rubbish job but we played games, had great incentives for doing well and I made friends for life. Just one of the things that still makes me smile now is the memory of me wearing a hard hat (we were having a funny hat day one Easter Monday) and everyone throwing Cadbury creme eggs at my head...

ReplyDeleteOMG, That accident with the window... sounds so painful - I can sort of feel how sore it must have been, argh :/
ReplyDeleteIt's alright if you can't say pumpkin, at least it's not a common word that you have to use a lot like "ask", my american friends and brothers always mock how I say it which ends up being like "actks" xD
