Hmmmmm. It's so hard to know what to say in these things. How do you say something about yourself that doesn't sound either really boring or like you are being really conceited and full of yourself??? It's a fine line. But while I tend to sit on the fence generally, I can't be bothered walking that tightrope today (perhaps I'm drunk and incapable of balancing, who knows???), so I'll probably verge towards the conceited side...
I'm just an all round cool-kinda gal. That sums me up in one sentence really!!! But I'll add I'm also blonde (not natural, of course, but you'd know that anyway if you took a quick glance at my roots, which REALLY need done right now!) and, while I can be a little daft at times, it's more for entertainment value than out of stupidity.(Honestly!) What can I say - I like making people laugh!!! (And I frequently do.) Simple as that!!! :)
But somehow that doesn't seem enough information to give - and I DO like to share information about myself! So how about I put it in the form of some random facts??? (I don't know why I'm asking, I'm going to do it anyway!!!)
So here's some useless information you need (or don't need) to know about lil' ol' me...*I played the violin, recorder and piano as a child. I can no longer play any of them, except perhaps two songs on the piano that no one would actually recognise.
*I got my nose pierced when I was 25 cos I felt like I needed to rebel in some way. Apart from when it got infected right at the start, I've never regretted it!!!
*I am the oldest child in my family and have a little sis and brother. We are all very old now, I feel.
*I started wearing make-up in primary seven. To school. Worrying...
*I have a scary (sad?) knowledge of capital cities of the world. Pre 1988. In other words, if you ask me the capital of Poland, Australia, any Scandinavian country, etc, I’ll know it. If you ask me the capital of Yugoslavia, I’ll know it. But if you ask me the capital of Latvia, Belarus, Georgia, Croatia, anywhere that only began to exist when I was older than eight, I more than likely won’t have a clue.
*I can juggle. Properly. Not for a long time though. And probably not with flaming sticks or anything like that, but give me three oranges or three pairs of balled up socks and I can keep them in the air for at least ten seconds. (My parents sent me to a circus workshop once)
*I sometimes still get ID’d. It can be embarrassing.
*I have a bit of a reputation as being a lightweight when it comes to alcohol. This is an unfair reputation. Sometimes...
*I also have a reputation for having a dirty mind. This, I cannot argue with.
*I’m addicted to fizzy juice and probably get through at least four or five cans a day. Often more. Yes, I KNOW it’s bad for me…
*People don't believe me when I say I'm shy. :(
*I didn’t get one A in my Highers. Then again, I didn’t actually STUDY, which may have helped me achieve such a lofty goal.
*I’ve never owned a pet. When people used to play the “porn star name†game, I had to use my first cuddly toy instead. So my porn name was Cuddles Tonner. Not the best really.
*I’ve worn contact lenses since I was thirteen and if I leave the house without them I’d probably endanger my life.
*I actually became a blonde by accident, due to me trying to give myself a few “natural highlights†with Sun-In when I was fifteen.
***STUFF I LOVE***
My bed, the colour pink (like i said, I'm a girly girl), glitter, chick flicks, chick-lit, being cuddled, snuggling in my bed with a dvd and chocolate, Peanut Butter Cups (although I like neither peanuts nor peanut butter), swimming, being able to walk wherever I want to go, 5pm on a Friday evening when I finish work and know I'm free for the weekend, the feeling you get when you get home after a big shopping spree and take out all your purchases to admire and try on all over again (or usually, in my case, for the first time...), Coke (of the fizzy type, don't do drugs!!!), white and rose wine, Chocolate Dream cocktails from Vodka Wodka, French Martinis from pretty much anywhere, feeling really "in-like" with someone (whether its a guy, or just a new friend you really bond with), dancing crazily around my bedroom when I'm drunk (occasionally using an umbrella as a prop), "Friends", eyeliner and lipgloss, looking at the snow falling when I'm inside and warm and don't need to leave my flat, being with my friends and family, sunshine (and failing that, sunbeds - sorry, I know they're bad for you!) . . . many many more things I can't think of right now but may add at a later date!!!!
***STUFF I HATE***
Cyclists, fellow pedestrians who get in my way when I'm trying to walk in a straight line (apparently I'm the only walker capable of doing this...), "that" time of the month, Victoria Beckham, Paris Hilton, girls who are too skinny particularly ones who are role models for millions, lovecheats, people who use big words in an attempt to be clever when they don't actually know what the words even mean, liars (dishonesty is a massive peeve of mine, particularly when it comes from friends), people who let you down when you need them most or just generally, smoking (although I'll tolerate it from people I know), drugs (which I don't tolerate at all), being unhappy, desperate guys trying to pull you in nightclubs when all you want to do is dance, "well-meaning" friends who try to set you up with the aforementioned desperate guys, smug people (particularly girls), snap judgements, people who have too many opinions and argue for the sake of it... and many MANY more...
