This weekend I thought I would do a non-pregnancy/baby related post, just for the hell of it! I am bored on a Sunday afternoon so why not :) I plan to do a little blog post next week for my 23 weeks of pregnancy plus I have bought a lot more stuff recently so when I can be bothered I will take some pictures of that! Overall I have been feeling ok apart from the normal hip/leg/back pain and she has picked up a gear with the kicking :)
I have seen this post floating around many blogs so thought I would '50 facts about me'. Sorry if you may have read these before.
1. I was born Cheryl Caroline Finch but many people still pronounce my first name wrong. Phonetically it should be CHeryl but it pronounced the same way as 'Sheryl'. It still annoys me when people get it wrong.
2. I am only just under 5 foot 3 and yet I have size 8 feet (and wear some size 9 shoes).
3. I much prefer Winter weather to the Summer. Anything about 20 degrees and I get cranky.
4. I got engaged to my best friend last September when he proposed whilst on holiday in Rome on our anniversary. It was a very magical experience-we have been together almost 7 years.
5. I love steak. I could eat it every day but I don't want heart disease. I have to have it very well done, almost burnt.
6. I have had long hair for most of my life and I'm lucky that it's quite thick. I plan to get it cut this Summer.
7. I have a serious Ebay addiction and must log into Paypal about 5 times a day!
8. I have been working in a wonderful primary school as a teaching assistant in Year 1 since last September. It's a truely great place to work and very rewarding. I have been a teaching assistant for nearly 3 years.
9. Michael also works as a teaching assistant but in a different school and in Year 3. We are lucky we both get the same holidays off work!
10. I love most types of cake but I hate cheescake.
11. I have many favourite holidays but one of my best places to visit was Lisbon in 2011. It's a wonderful city and we had an awesome time there.
12. I'm an only child and very close to my Mum. She's my best friend and we love shopping together, going for afternoon tea and boring Michael with our reality TV addiction.
13. I took 10 GCSE's and got all grades A*-B. Only benefit of a private school education, however most of knowledge left me after the age of 18, lol.
14. I'm a very impatient person and hate waiting for anything. I frequently swear to myself if someone walks slowly in front of me.
15. I hate it when people don't reply to texts/messages/emails etc as I always make the effort to do so.
16. I have had 4 operations in my life, 3 of them on my toes! (Big feet syndrome!)
17. I studied journalism at uni and did pretty well getting a 2:1. Half way through I decided I hated journalism!
18. I am currently writing a time travel children's book.
19. I am slightly obsessed with Harry Styles.
20. I love west end musicals and have seen over 10 of them in the past few years. My favourite is probably Dirty Dancing!
21. I have loyally watched Big Brother every year since it started even though it's crap now!
22. I have been living with Michael for 5 1/2 years and we are both rather messy. Not the best combination.
23. I am really scared of pain and I'm a real wuss. Wish me luck for childbirth.
24. I still have to sleep with a light on in our room because I'm scared of the dark.
25. I hate drinking water!
26. I have suffered from depression and anxiety since the age of 8. I have taken medication for a few months when I was about 18 but otherwise I just find ways to cope.
27. I only own two pairs of trousers, I live in dresses!
28. The first cassette I ever bought was Wet Wet Wet 'Love is All Around'.
29. One of my favourite singers at the moment is Lana Del Ray. Just adore her.
30. I like chocolate but not solid chocolate bars-my favourite are Twix and Kit Kat.
31. I always wanted to be a teacher but left a PGCE after I decided it wasn't for me. It was one of the best decisions I ever made!
32. I get up at 7am every morning for work and I still hate it. I am NOT a morning person and don't like to talk to anyone.
33. I love 50's diners and try to always find one when we go on holiday. My favourite one so far was in Lisbon, they even had a Marilyn Monroe statue!
34. I am not spontaneous in the slightest and like things to be planned.
35. I can't swim!
36. I love 80's films-in particular my favourite which is Back to the Future. I could quote most of the lines and I drink tea out of my BTTF mug every morning.
37. I have a gap between my two front teeth which was a lot bigger when I was younger. I used to hate it but now I love it.
38. I play Candy Crush almost every day and have been on Level 133 for almost a month now.
39. I used to work in Claire's Accessories. The 50% discount was fab but that was about it.
40. I used to have really fair hair as a child.
41. I wear make up every day pretty much without fail. I couldn't live without my mascara and concealor.
42. I have a habit of picking people to be in my life who make zero effort.
43. My favourite restaurant is Toby Carvery and we frequently travel about 90 mins to our nearest one!
44. I love wedding research and Michael and I plan to get married in 2015.
45. I hate talking to anyone on the phone other than my Mum and Michael. I usually get them to call anyone else for me!
46. I'm a very liberal person and totally believe everyone should be treated equally regardless of sexuality, race, gender etc. Narrow minded people bore me.
47. I have worn glasses since I was about 8 and my first pair were Mickey Mouse ones. I used to wear contacts but now I just embrace my poor sight!
48. I scare really easily and I hate horror films.
49. My engagement ring was my Nan's engagement ring and is extremely sentimental as well as very, very valuable!
50. Michael and I are expecting our first baby, a little girl, in September 2013. We were very lucky that it happened quickly for us and I cried (with happiness lol) when I found out I was pregnant! It's something we have wanted for a long time.
