Tell me more, tell me more!

Hello again my friends!

So I'm breaking the bloggy rule of two posts in one day.... but I'm allowed! It's my birthday! :)
My wonderful boyfriend is preparing an amazing birthday supper and I'm not allowed to help... I can't even go in the kitchen! I'm so excited to see what he cooks :) Therefore I've got some free time!


I've been wanting to join this linky for a while now. I love getting to know my fellow bloggers! Here is your chance to get to know me a little better!

1. Nail Polish

I am obsessed with nail polish. Very much obsessed! I cannot go to the drugstore without walking out of there with a new bottle. I love them all! Neons, darks, lights, reds, pinks, blues, browns....any color can look good depending on what you are wearing! I change mine a few times a week. And what a fun obsession.... nail polish is a lot less expensive than shoes! :)
This is one of my favorite go-to shade. The name is My Chihuahua Bites by O.P.I.


2. My kitty

This is my adorable little kitty! Well, he's one now so he's a bit bigger but I just love this picture so much this is the one I wanted to show you! He is the sweetest cat ever. He follows us around the house! If I'm putting my makeup on, he's sitting on the bathroom counter, if we're cooking supper, he's laying on the floor in the kitchen, when we are sleeping, he sleeps on my boyfriend's bedside table. He's not like all the other independent cats. This little man needs affection and I'm more than happy to provide! :)
Funny thing, I never really liked cats. I was always more about dogs. But then I fell in love! Please, have you seen that little face? ;)


3. Fears

Two things terrify me in life: heights and small spaces.

Heights. I am really afraid of heights. Can't-go-in-the-ladder-while-apple-picking kinda scared! As soon as I get a little higher than I'd like, my knees start trembling and I want to cry. Seriously, it's not good! For some reason, I am still able to go on rides. I get really scared but as I am not the one in control and there's nothing I can do once the roller coaster has started, it's not as bad as when I'm going up a ladder for example.
However, one ride I will NEVER go on (you have my word on that) is this one:

x scream vegas

The X-Scream in Las Vegas! We're talking 1,149 feet above ground! Say what!!!??? My dad did this ride when he went to Vegas and was terrified! And my dad is not easily scared. No thank you for me! Has anyone ever been on this ride?

Small Spaces. I am also very claustrophobic. I do not like being trapped in small places. This summer I went on vacation and I had to take the plane. Planes are not my favorite. I mean hello! They combine my two worst fears! But I still manage to take the plane every year because going on vacation is so much worth it! But this summer I was stuck in the first row! Boy did I not enjoy that! Being in the first row makes you feel like you are in a tiny plane! :( I had to control myself and my fear because I was surrounded by little kids who were having the time of their lives and it made me feel ridiculous to be scared. But let me tell you next plane trip, I am requesting at least row 15!

4. Sports

I am not good at sports. And that is ALL sports. I've tried a few as a child. I really thought I would fall in love with one of them. All of my friends were doing sports! I tried baseball, tennis, swimming and gymnastics. Ok so I did do gymnastics for a few years but I was not loving it as much as I would've liked and I was no Nadia Comaneci! I do go snowboarding every year but then again, I'm not the cool snowboarder you see doing all the cool jumps! And I play tennis with my boyfriend. Well, play is a big word.... but still.... I try!
As a child I was so sad because I did not like sports and was not good at them. But now that I'm older, I'm OK with it! And I've realized it's not actually true that everyone is good at sports! I've met a lot of friends who are just like me! And also... isn't shopping a sport? ;)



5. TV Shows

I love watching TV Shows! But I love watching them on DVD so that I don't have to wait an entire week before I can watch an other episode. 
As a teenager, my life revolved around Dawson's Creek and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Ah the roller coaster of the Dawson/ Joey/Pacey love triangle! I could not get over these shows! (and unfortunately could not watch them on DVD) I have watched all of the seasons and have loved these shows from beginning to end.


Now, I would say my favorite ones are Friends (which I still watch over and over again), How I Met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory, Grey's Anatomy, Vampire Diaries (hello Damon!) and Criminal Minds.
I love watching shows! They make my life feel less dramatic in many many ways! And also, I always end up feeling like I actually know the characters!

6. Sophie Kinsella

I love reading her books! She is sooooo funny! Her books always put me in a good mood and are so much fun to read! My favorite one is The Undomestic Goddess. Could they please make it into a movie? :)


Well there you have it! Enough random things about me! I've told you more, now, if you haven't done it yet, it's your turn!

Until next time,

I enjoy Sophie Kinsella's books as well, but I think my favourite one is 'Can You Keep A Secret?' Have you read it? It's hilarious. I laughed out loud so much when reading it.
