: about me

Two of my favourite Bloggers Erin and Kristin recently did a post all about their obsessions. I knew as soon as I read their posts that I needed to do one of my own. All I had to do was ask a few of my family/friends what they thought my obsessions were and what comes to mind when they think of me. I asked 8 family/friends and recorded my answers below.

7/8 people said Disney/Disney films. This is so true I would choose to watch Disney films over any other film there is and usually watch one at least once a week. I also own the Now Disney Album that I frequently play in the car and you can almost always find me quoting Disney films. This one did not surprise me at all.

It is fair to say I have watched every one of these.

7/8 people also said crime shows. Some people said Csi, Castle and Law&Order SVU so I labelled them all under crime shows. If I am not watching Disney films then you can bet I am watching anything to do with the above shows. You can just tell that from my blog.

6/7 people said Italian food. Whenever I get to chose a restaurant for dinner it is always Italian. It is my favourite cuisine and helps me feel that little bit closer to Italy (I will visit one day) Pizza and pasta yes please.

6/7 also said shopping. My dad messaged me ''shopping shopping shopping'' so I guess he knows me well, maybe because when I was younger it was all coming out of his bank account. I love shopping and can't say no to a sale, I always justify a purchase by saying it was in the sale. If there was a job where I could shop all day I would happily take it.

This gif seemed appropriate.

5/8 people said ice cream. This is my go to and I love to sit in front of the Tv watching a show and eating ice cream. I am so bad at self control when it comes to ice cream I usually end up eating the whole carton.

5/8 people also said hot baths. There is nothing like a hot bath when you have had an exhausting day or need time to relax. You'll usually find me in there with a magazine.

4/8 said sleep. I need at least 9/10 hours to function, I physically cannot function on anything less. I go to bed between 10pm-12am and do not wake before 8. Mornings aren't something I love. I know I am in for a rude awakening when I have a baby, 6am wake up calls no thank you.

4/8 people also said organisation. I love to be organised way ahead of time. If I am going on holiday you can bet I have picked my clothes, ironed them and packed them about a week before I go. I cannot deal with the frantic rushing around because from experience that is when I forget something! I also carry a planner with me and tons of lists so I can be on top of my game.

3/8 said tea. I am surprised more people didn't say this. I have at least two cups a day one when I wake up and one before bed. I need a good cup of tea in order to function.

2/8 said painted nails. I hate to have chipped nails or them not to be painted, I feel much more put together with painted nails. Monthly manicures/pedicures are a must. Although it has been 6 weeks since my last one yikes!

A few other things that came up were Netflix, beach days, Summer, alcohol and Christmas.

There you go a little insight into the things I love via my family and friends!

My flaws/quirks...

about me

Everyone has flaws, everyone has things that they don't necessarily like abut themselves or wish they could change and that leads a lot of people to become insecure within themselves. But I think it's important to not look at our flaws as something that is necessarily bad but instead to look at them as little quirks that make us who we are. We are all beautiful and have the ability to be loved for who we are despite those ''flaws''. So I think it's time we all embraced our quirks instead of feeling ashamed of them.

I am not morning person.

Once I have woken up it takes me about an hour or two to actually want to talk to anyone without biting their head off. If anyone decides to wake me up in the morning then I will be in a funk of all day. I like my mornings to be peaceful and silent with a lovely cup of tea. All my friends seem to be morning people and make plans for 11am and I am only just rolling out of bed then. They have recently learnt that I am simply not going to go anywhere unless it's after 12PM so they refrain from making plans any earlier. One time they did turn up at 11am with tea and cookies so I couldn't really complain.

I am a fussy eater.

I am a nightmare to take out to a restaurant, I am like a little child. I have to have everything plain, I do not like condiments or salad so I have to explain to the waitress that I want plain and explain that means with nothing on it, it's such a long process. I also dislike fish, lamb, olives and mushrooms. I prefer to stick with lasange or chicken nuggets.

I am never on time.

I am always late for everything. My time keeping is appalling, I always end up thinking that my hair and make up routine takes less time than it actually does. Then something always manages to go wrong and I am even later for wherever I am suppose to be. I always text whoever I am meeting that I am leaving when in reality I am still sat in my house in my pajamas. I know it's such a horrible trait to have and I have been trying really hard to improve this.

I am impatient.

Maybe this comes from being the only child where I am used to having things when I want. But I hate waiting for things, I want everything to happen when I want them too. This is seriously frustrating when things are out of my control and I have to *patiently* wait for them.

What are some of your flaws? Do you share any of the same flaws as me? Have you embraced them or do you still find it a challenge to accept them?

*I seen a similar post a few months ago on Kelly's blog and I loved the idea so I thought I would write my own post about my own flaws.*

You Probably Don't Know...

about me

Considering I am new to the blogging world I thought I would share some things about myself with you all.

So without further adieu you probably don't know that...

1) I could eat ice cream all day everyday, but I dislike cakes and doughnuts.
2) I don't eat breakfast. Okay I know breakfast is suppose to be the most important meal of the day or whatever but I just simply do not get up in time to eat it or even if I do I cannot stomach food first thing in the morning.
3) I bite my nails, it's such a bad habit to have and no matter how hard I try I can't seem to break it.
4) I usually fall asleep during a movie whether that be at home or in the cinema. When it is dark out or I am bed watching TV I mostly just end up falling asleep.
5) I still wear Christmas pajamas even in the Summer. They are so comfortable and they have reindeers on them, how can you not wear them.
6) I have my wedding all planned out in my head and I even have a secret Pintrest board with all wedding pins #callmecrazy.
7) My favourite genre of music is a toss up between rock and country. Depending on the day and the mood.
8) I hate feet. I have such a phobia of feet honestly, I can't look at them let alone touch them. I feel sick just typing it out.
9) I need 10 hours of sleep every night to function otherwise there is no point trying to talk to me.
10) I can't swim, yes I am aware at 18 year old it is kind of embarrassing. But in all honestly I have never had any desire to swim in the pool or the sea. I am pretty content just dipping my feet in. I may have to rethink this one soon though as I am really worried that a shark may attack me one day and I won't be able to swim away.
11) I don't deal with stress well at all. I usually just end up crying into a bowl of ice-cream.
12) I have no self control when it comes to shopping especially sales. If something is on sale I have to buy it. I remember one time I bought Frozen paper plates because they were on sale.
13) My celebrity crush is Zac Efron need I say more.
14) I live in my pajamas, I prefer comfort over anything and my pajamas are the most comfiest thing ever.
15) I am so terrible at photography. I just haven't got one creative bone in my body. All my photos either come out dark, blurry or just plain disastrous.
16) I had a cameo role in Doctor Who. They film it where I live and I went down to watch and I am in the background of a few episodes.
17) I have no siblings and I like it surprisingly.
18) I am extrovert. I love to be around people and I love to talk.
19) I am naturally blonde but I also use dye on my hair because my roots come through so fast even though I am a natural blonde why is this??
20) I like candles, seriously my house is full of them. They smell sonice and are so relaxing.

I am always on the look out for more blogs to read so please comment some facts about yourself/your blog and I will be sure to follow your blog.
