About Me

i guess i am average as far as height and looks and stuff. i have a few quirks that my boyfriend finds hillarious like i can't stand having my barefeet on the fabric on the sofa or the carpet. i hate cotton wool or the sound that scrunching a paper towel makes, i like driving in the country for as long as i feel like it without ever having a real destination. i might point out that i have found my favourite places in the world by doing this! and i had to put the radio on today because my mum was eating crackers. yes these things may be slightly odd but they are my things. i am afraid of heights, afraid of my judgement at times although this has strengthened lately and am not afraid of being content and secure.my inner child...Mark the things that you have: [x] A mom [x] A dad [] Stepmom [] Stepdad [] A younger brother [] A younger sister [] An older brother [] An older sister [] Grandfather [x] Grandmother [x] Cousins [] Half-brother [] Half-sister [] Stepbrother [] Stepsister [] brother-in-law [] Sister-in-law [] Niece [] nephew1.
