100 things about me - the second 50
Right, I've had a couple of hours sleep...
51. I wear makeup every single day.
52. I believe in karma.
53. I am a fountain of useless knowledge. Comes in handy on trivia nights.
54. I hate prankster/hidden camera shows with a passion. No matter how things might work out in the end, I don't think it is ever worth making a person feel the way they do until the 'reveal'.
55. I fall asleep in movies and usually only see the credits.
56. I am afraid of grasshoppers. They have disgusting little spiky legs and fly directly at you.
57. I love mushrooms and would include them with every meal if I thought I could. Raw, grilled, fried - whatever.
58. I'm not a gardener, but I have a few David Austen roses I just love.
59. I love charms and tiny ornaments. Just love them, and have done since I was a small child. The littler, the better.
60. I know beyond a shadow of doubt that the TAL oils work. I just wish I knew better how to use them to get the best effect.
61. I dream of owning my own business.
62. I hate driving. My father was in a very serious accident before I was born that left him with brain damage and I guess that I have always been afraid the same could happen to me or my loved ones.
63. I'm a nightowl, I like the quiet when the world is asleep and I can stare at the stars.
64. I am really driven in my work life but a terrible procrastinator at home.
65. I will not eat any meat off the bone, or things on sticks.
66. In real life, I use very passionate and dramatic language.
67. Musicians rock my socks. First time I saw my husband he was playing lead guitar and singing in a band.
68. I believe wholeheartedly in love at first sight.
69. I talk with my hands, even when I am on the phone.
70. Religious fanatics freak me out. And downright piss me off when they try to stuff their beliefs down my throat.
71. I love flat shoes and haven't worn heels for more than ten years.
72. I really love sushi, and often make elaborate family occasions around the preparation and eating of it.
73. I am a hopeless romantic and tell people I love them all the time.
74. I believe crying is cathartic.
75. I love live music, particularly folk and indie festivals.
76. I never write in cursive.
77. I wish I had a rainforest in my backyard and I could just escape into the deep green.
78. I am far more self-conscious than I ever let on.
79. I believe that people have a 'time' and die when they are meant to.
80. First thing I look at when I meet a man are his hands. They give away so much. And big manly hands make me swoony.
81. I like people who have kind eyes.
82. I really appreciate red wine and I would like to be able to describe myself as a 'buff' one day.
83. My ipod has lots of versions of Over the Rainbow. My favourites are Eva Cassidy, Israel Kamakawiwo'ole and Ella Fitzgerald.
84. I hate housework.
85. I would like to live and work overseas for at least a year but am never quite brave or knowledgeable enough to know how to go about it.
86. Grunge music was my music in its day. Hearing Nirvana still brings a rush of endorphins.
87. I wish I could sleep more.
88. I am overly trusting but not naive.
89. I can become fixated on polished stones and polished wood. Pretty tumbled stones, crystals and semi-precious gems will call to me from across a store.
90. This probably also explains my love of beaded necklaces. I like them long enough that I can look down and see them or run my fingers over them.
91. Annoying ringtones really peeve me. I hate that there is a thriving industry for them.
92. I am openminded and I love to talk to people who might broaden my horizons.
93. I love art, particularly beautiful paintings, whether they are famous or not.
94. I can't sew to save my life, but I am a great cook.
95. I shudder when people describe themselves as 'whacky' or 'zany'. Experience has taught me that this usually translates to 'annoying'.
96. My best friend once told me there are two people to avoid in life - serial killers and women who spell 'thanks' with an 'x'. So far his advice has stood me in good stead.
97. I have a copy of Rudyard Kipling's 'If' on display in my home and in my office.
98. I love to meditate and am trying to learn to take it to the next level.
99. I think a really good indicator of character is how a person speaks about their partner.
100. I would much rather talk about you than me!
