Perhaps this is a little narcissistic but it’s my blog so I guess I can write whatever I want ... and I don't have a boy story (that I feel like sharing) right now.
Recently a friend told me that they enjoy my blog but perhaps those people who don’t know me personally might want to know more ... About me. And looking at my stats I can see that I have people reading my blog from all over the world.
So here is a list of very important information about me. Shannan.
- I have an obsession with finding the right watch & have subsequently bought the wrong watch multiple times. My father is exactly the same in this regard.
- I know how to salute, about turn and march in a colour party.
- I have an unhealthy desire to meet a hippopotamus in the wild.
- I chew my lip when I’m thinking.
- And bite my fingernails all the time.
- Sometimes when I'm nervous I fart ... silently.
- My sense of humour is occasionally very off kilter. I have mastered the art of uncomfortable dead mother humour.
- I volunteered in a youth organisation for 15 years.
- I love baking but don’t really like to eat it.
- I can tap dance, sing songs from ‘Annie’ and memorise a monologue in an afternoon.
- The only thing I learnt from high school was how to tie a windsor knot.
- Sometimes I have conversations in my head before I have them with the person.
- Speaking in public doesn’t scare me but I always shake like a leaf.
- When I was a teenager I wanted to work in a library.
- I laugh at my own jokes.
- And re-read funny text messages when I’m feeling low.
- I have an email folder with emails from my dead mother but I don’t read them.
- I write poetry when I’m really depressed but it’s always about dead people.
- When I was young I wanted to be an Olympic long distance swimmer but puberty destroyed my dreams.
- Sometimes I snort when I laugh.
- I don’t brush my hair every day.
- I love true crime novels.
- I want to spend the rest of my life telling stories about other people.
- I can’t just say “No” I have to say “No No”.
- I had to learn how to spell narcissistic just for this blog.
