You've probably seen a million of these posts on the blogging network, but I've loved reading them (I'm shamelessly nosy) and so have created my own. I remembered so much about myself that you've now got a rather long-winded 50 facts, but if you get to the end you are guaranteed to know me about as much as I know myself!
2. I graduated with a first degree in Marketing Management from Northumbria Uni
3. My favourite...shape is a triangle
4. ...colour is royal blue
5. ...word is 'hope'
6. ...author is Mitch Albom
7. ...place is Italy
8. My books are my greatest possession
9. I hate olives
10. I'm addicted to Amazon
11. The way to my heart is through bunting, anything Victorian, candles or pretty stationary
12. I started blogging purely as an online dairy for me to vent/chat things out as I was finding it hard to do that in my normal life
13. I love baking and making home wares, especially cushions and bunting
14. I'm ridiculously unlucky in love
15. ...and am the worst singleton ever
16. At uni I had two pet turtles and a rabbit
17. I also went through the roughest personal time of my life and am forever thankful to my friends for getting me through it
18. I believe nothing beats a good prank. My two flatmates once covered my entire floor in full cups of water the night before a dissertation meeting. Nothing can describe the pain of emptying 800 cups of water to make it to bed!
19. I hoard every little memory and therefore have far too many memory boxes
20. I live in a small village and have settled back into the country way of life very easily after four years in Newcastle
21. I want to own my own bookshop/cafe hybrid when I'm older
22. Before that I want to see as many places in the world as I can
23. I believe the world is there for a reason and that is to be seen
24. I'm a rubbish girl. It takes me 10 minutes to get ready and I would really need a full tutorial on all things beauty
25. I don't have a skincare routine; I've only ever used soap/water/face wipes and can count the amount of spots I've had on one hand
26. I believe in fairy tales
27. I love Made in Chelsea, Revenge, Homeland, One Tree Hill and The Good Wife
28. I've never been to London
29. I love old time sweet shops
30. I've seen a ridiculously small amount of movies and only about three Disney ones
31. I'm terrified of horror movies and the scary music they use makes me cry
32. I can't have the volume (radio, TV) on an odd number, it freaks me out
33. When I was younger I wanted to be a marine biologist, now I'm petrified of the sea/scuba-diving. How things change
34. I enjoy in-store home ware shopping way more than clothes shopping and can't wait to have my own place to decorate
35. My favourite Starbucks is a skinny sugar-free hazelnut latte
36. I have seriously bad co-ordination and for this reason will never try Zumba
37. I use to struggle with really low self-esteem; if I thought about it too much now I still do so I try to think positively
38. I am not a morning person, at all
39. I've been in Vatican City at 6am for the sunrise and it was one of the most special moments in my life
40. I suffered from really bad anaemia in 3rd year of uni and so I always try to monitor it now. I had never felt so poorly in my life
41. My favourite drink is OVG (orange, vodka, grenadine) followed swiftly by prosecco and white wine spritzers
42. I love charity work, I based my dissertation on it and wish I could be more involved in it now
43. I had an awful phobia of flying until I moved to Newcastle and had no choice in the matter
44. I worry and over-think things way too much
45. I hate all forms of bullying and discrimination and believe everyone is equal no matter what job we have/how we look/our sexuality/gender/disability
46. I am so squeamish, even typing the word makes me feel sick
47. I love taking photos and am a little too obsessed with Instagram
48. I love tartan
49. I used to have rubbish general knowledge and have been trying to learn more 'general things' - I once thought a Scotch egg was a traditional Irish dish and Cardiff was the capital of England
50. I have the two best friends in the world, I can tell them anything and my life would be so boring without them!
