25 Facts About Me!

Hello World!

So, I can't think of anything more appropriate than doing a '25 Facts About Me' post, so you can all get to know me a little bit better. So... 25 facts about me;





1. I am a massive Harry Potter fan. I have been to 2 of the premieres (and by this I do not mean on the red carpet, I mean standing out in the rain for hours on end waiting to catch a glimpse of the stars!). For Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 I slept overnight, in the pouring rain on the floor in Trafalgar Square - if that's not dedication, I don't know what is.

2. I'm a vegetarian and have been for 7 years.

3. I am a first year student nurse and I bloody well love it.

4. I am a whopping 5"2'. My friends genuinely thought they'd lost me on the tube because I'm the same height as most people's shoulders.

5. My sister and I have a wee bit of a Disney addiction. The Disney Store is one of my favourite shops, although it is a bit embarrassing when the cashier asks who I'm buying Tangled sippy cups for, when we both know that they're for me.

6. I have 2 tattoos. A deathly hallows symbol on my foot (I told you I was a fan!) and 3 bird silhouettes on my collarbone, one for my mum, dad and sister.

7. I was born exactly one month before I was due... yet I was the normal weight for a newborn, interpret that as you will.

8. Alexander Skarsgard is my idea of the perfect man.

9. I have a serious lipstick addiction... especially purple/red lipsticks. 

10. My friends used to mock me for my love of Cath Kidston. 

11. I'm fairly confident I've seen every episode of 8 Out of 10 Cats, Q.I., Mock the Week and Have I Got News for You... what can I say, I love comedy panel shows (I suppose it helps that they're always on Dave).

12. I really like One Direction, please don't judge me. I saw them in February at the O2... it was just wonderful.

13. For a good part of my childhood, my parents made me go to a competitive swimming club, despite being awful at swimming.

14. When I was in New York I met Lee Evans and Billy Connolly. (and Dr Roberts from The OC - if you're a big fan like me, this was a BIG deal).

15. I was the first person in my year at school to get braces ( I was 11).

16. If I had to live off one meal for the rest of my life, it would be Thai Green Curry with tofu and egg fried rice. Yummy.

17. My three favourite songs at the moment are Chocolate - The 1975, Pompeii - Bastille and Another Love - Tom Odell. 

18. I have a 50 inch TV in my room. Don't ask me why.

19. My school work experience, college enrichment, volunteering, job and now degree have all been hospital based. What can I say? I love healthcare.

20. I support Norwich City Football Team, like Stephen Fry. OTBC.

21. I HATE going to the hair dresser. With every snip, a little piece of me dies.

22. I have 2 adorable Border Terriers named Alfie and Jasper. 

23. I fell over on a puddle that had turned to ice this winter and it was probably the most humiliating thing that's ever happened to me, not to mention it hurt my bum like you wouldn't believe.

24. I drive a red Renault Clio... his name is Ron.

25. I love The Sims... it actually pains me that I cannot play it all day everyday.

There we go - 25 things you may or may not have known about me!

  5. I laughed reading this! Probably because I felt your pain, especially with the swimming club! My parents made me go until I was about 16 and it was the worst thing ever, I must have come last in EVERY race! I'm also about to start studying nursing! Where are you studying?
