So, heres a whole bunch of stuff about me:

- I'm 23. Which scares me. I swear I was 17 yesterday!!

- My family are completely disfunctional and I wouldnt have it any other way.

- I work in a nursing home. Yep - bathing old people, taking them to the toilet and playing bingo all afternoon. Ok its not the most glamorous of jobs but i absolutely LOVE it and cant see myself ever doing anything else. I'd rather do a job which is a bit on the disgusting side but someone could not live without me doing for them than sit at a checkout all day saying "would you like a hand to pack?"

- I think I'm a little bit psychic. No really, stop laughing. Sometimes i just "get feelings" about things and then it happens. its weird.

- I fall in love very quickly. Not easily - I have a lot of boxes that need to be ticked before i'll want him, but if i meet someone special who does tick all those boxes, i'm in love in a matter of days.

- Relationships and the thought of being in love terrifies me right now.

- On 4 July 2007 I almost died - it wasnt my time. someone was looking out for me. Thank you.

- I have a big heart and it gets bruised easily.

- I can see things clearer when i'm not involved. situations seem very obvious to me when its happening to someone else, but when its me its a different matter. Basically, i should take my own advice sometimes.

- i love socks

- If all goes to plan, 2008 is gonna be a big one for me! Not much happened in 2007 really and I can only blame myself for not getting off my big fat butt and making stuff happen. So in 08 I'm planning to work in Zante, Greece for 6 months and also hoping to do Volunteer work in Ghana in November.

- i'd rather be told to F**k off than ignored

- I sing into my hairbrush and dance around in my underwear

- Someone on here (i forget who) recommended a book called The Secret to me. It completely changed my life.

- I hate drama. But i have so much drama. If it can happen to someone, it will almost certainly happen to me!

- I dont like being called pretty. Its not a compliment. Tell me i'm nice / important to you / did something that made you feel good or smile. I dont care if i got lucky in the DNA department or not, its not something i've done or achieved.

- Music is my life

- im a big big big believer in fate and destiny and i truly believe that EVERYTHING happens for a reason.
