20 Random Facts
Having been tagged by Liz a while ago to publish 20 random facts about myself, I have finally decided to get on with it, and would like to tag Kev to update as soon as he gets his blog disinfected!
1. I am a real expert at procrastination.
2. I have recently decided that funky patterned socks are a good thing.
3. I had laser eye surgery a few years ago - it was my 21st birthday present, and it worked well.
4. My hair has been all sorts of colours and styles, but I have never shaved my head.
5. My first car was named Jemima - this was because my Dad used to tease me as a kid by by calling my favourite doll Jemima Winklepicker.
6. I nearly died aged 10 when a large concrete well-liner fell on me, cracking several ribs and puncturing a lung.
7. I used to collect 'My Little Ponies', and had over 20 at one point.
8. We don't have a TV.
9. I have discovered how to make really good pork crackling.
10. I have been drunk enough to end up in hospital.
11. I am fascinated by most things biological. Genetics in particular is incredible.
12. I write children's poetry and hope to be published one day.
13. I like to think I am a good listener.
14. I used to want to teach, but after encountering the kids in the UK I no longer want to.
15. I can make sugar free ice cream. Mail me if you want the recipe.
16. My life has gone in a direction I did not expect at all - I am living in the UK with my girlfriend looking for a job outside the school environment, as opposed to teaching in Zim.
17. I enjoy making up a present out of lots of little things, which is a good reason to start shopping early for Christmas.
18. I have a fairly eclectic taste in both music and books.
19. I need more practice at bargain hunting. Sometimes my purchases are a real bargain, but often they are complete crap. I still love Poundland though!
20. I sleep a lot, and can't function properly on less than 8 hours of sleep on a regular basis. I used to need around 10 hours on a regular basis.
