I read this over on Sass’s blog “Life of the Bees“, and really enjoyed reading her answers. I thought I would try and give it a crack on my blog since it’s all things that I wouldn’t normally blog about in my day-to-day life. I hope you don’t fall asleep, and you learn something interesting about me!
AGE: 27 for another 5 months, but mentally I feel like I’m younger (a combination of immaturity as well as feeling like there is still so much left for me to learn).
BED SIZE: Double, which is more than enough for me, and I find I tend to sleep on one side anyway. Although I haven’t been sleeping in MY bed very much lately *wink*
CHORE THAT I HATE: Dusting…it’s always long overdue when I finally get to it, not good.
DOGS: My little Missy, my 2 year old mischievious pup!! I still consider my old dog Turbo as mine, even though he’s now living with my ex-boyfriend’s mother. He’ll always be mine though, and I miss him dearly. Here’s a photo of the two of them when Missy was still little (she’s taller than Turbo now)
'naawwww...I love my puppies
ESSENTIAL START TO MY DAY: Waking up (duh). As sad as it may seem, I usually check my phone after waking because it’s my alarm clock, and there’s usually some notifications on there I have to clear.
FAVOURITE COLOUR: Blue, and if I had to choose a particular shade it would be that beautiful crystal blue. Like the blue you get in the sky on an amazing clear day on the Sunshine Coast (so lucky to live here).
GOLD OR SILVER: Silver or white gold. My skin just doesn’t go with regular gold at all, it looks terrible.
HEIGHT: 175cm, which I used to think was on the taller side, and then I met C. At 6ft 8 he towers over me and makes me feel tiny, which is actually pretty awesome. I have promised him that I’ll get good at wearing some super high heels though so when it comes time to dress up he doesn’t feel quite so big.
INSTRUMENTS I PLAY: No one plays the triangle like me, and I’m pretty sure I could rival Will Ferrell’s cowbell. I also dabble a little bit with the guitar, though I’m determined to learn it properly one day. At this stage I can play a little bit for various songs on there.
JOB TITLE: Client services? Customer support? Jack of all traders? Shit kicker? Take your pick.
KIDS: None, THANK GOD. Having a dog is enough for me, and I certainly don’t intend on spitting anything out from between my legs anytime soon.
LIVE: Currently on the Sunshine Coast, though because of career aspirations this could be anywhere in Queensland in the near future.
MOTHERS NAME: Lynne, aka Mum.
NICKNAMES: Typically Kel, but it can range from Kelsbells, Kellybeans, Kelly Smelly or even Smell. As a kid I LOVED having a name that rhymed with bad words, THANKS PARENTS!
OVERNIGHT HOSPITAL STAYS: Ok lets see….when I was little for a fractured wrist where I did a super awesome job and my bone almost burst out from the skin, and also a few years ago when I had a knee reconstruction.
PET PEEVES: Trying to think of something that really drives me insane, but I’m struggling. I cringe when I hear the word “moist”, which my friends tend to use to their advantage and stir me about. I hate people touching my feet cause they’re ugly…umm…..I hate it when people lie? I don’t know really.
QUOTE FROM A MOVIE: I don’t generally quote movies. How about…..”Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?”
RIGHT OR LEFT HANDED: Left, which amazingly still shocks people. The only catch is that that I only write with my left hand, for everything else, including sports, my right side is my dominant side. I couldn’t make up my mind as a kid obviously (who am I kidding, I’m still indecisive about everything as an adult)
SIBLINGS: In total, ones that I actually count as family: one. In total, ones that due to blood and genetics that are classed as my siblings, two (for those playing along at home this means that one of my “siblings” has been disowned by me).
TIME I WAKE UP: Varies depending on whether it’s a weekend or not, but during the week I try to be awake by 7 – 7.30. I’ve let my running habit slacken a bit, but when summer comes I’ll be getting up a lot earlier so that I’ve gotten my run out of the way before it gets too hot.
UNDERWEAR: I love, love, love my Bonds undies. I have about 4 pairs of undies in the same black style, but they’re awesome. I also have them in grey. I should go and buy some more come to think of it. You can never have too many bonds undies.
VEGETABLE I HATE: I hate zucchini, but recently discovered it was in one of my favourite salads at a local restaurant. Other than that, you’ll be hard pressed to get me to eat it.
WHAT MAKES ME RUN LATE: My supreme procrastination abilities. If I could be a superhero, I’d be Captain Procrastination. “SAVE ME CAPTAIN PROCRASTINATION!” “Meh, I’ll do it tomorrow”. I daresay I wouldn’t be a “hero” for very long.
X-RAYS I’VE HAD: Oh boy, let’s see. Wrist, spine, ankles numerous times, my shin (spiral fracture that I’d been walking on for nearly a week, I’m so tough). I’m surprised the radiation hasn’t affected me more. Or maybe it has, and I just think I’m normal. Actually, that would explain a lot.
YUMMY FOOD THAT I MAKE: To be honest, if I’ve cooked something and it’s edible that’s a win for me. It’s going to be a long time before I can ever say I’ve made something “yummy”.
ZOO ANIMAL: Is it sad that I had to look up a local Zoo’s website just so that I could decide? All the animals I could think of I decided weren’t appropriate. After some considerable research I decided I would be a Ring-tailed Lemur. They’re cheeky, and the women are the bosses!
Maybe I should do my makeup similar to this
