Not too sound like a rebel, but I won't be playing by the rules!  Well, not all of them anyway.  I have already taken care of number 1, I am about to do number 2, but I won't be doing 3 or 4.  Instead I invite anyone who is reading this and fancies doing it, to do it! :)

So, 7 things about me...

1.  I am a weird mix of very girly + tomboy.  I grew up as a tom boy, going to the football all       the time, wearing football tops, hanging around with the boys, playing shooting zombie computer games.  Then when I was around 18, I changed and went in the opposite direction.  Everything had to be pink or fluffy, or I just wasn't interested.  Now, at the grand old age of 27, I am somewhere in between.  I'm probably still more of a girl's girl and if you meet me I think I come across as sweet & girly, which I am, and I love all things pink & glittery, but I also still love a good game of Resident Evil on the Playstation, have 4 tattoos and I can still get down with the boys!

2.  I've had 2 significant relationships with boys.  The 1st one started when I was 18, and finished when I was 24.  In that time, we got engaged and bought a flat together.  The break up was tough with a capital T.  The next one started when I was 24 and is still going strong now.  I met him on a football bus and we were friends for a long time before we admitted we liked each other and our first kiss.  I was still recovering from my breakup when we got together which didn't make things easy but things smoothed out and we have now ended up in a rented flat together living & working in Edinburgh of all places! ♥

3.  I kinda wish I knew what I wanted to do with the rest of my life.  My current plans are to keep on working away in a job that I don't hate, hopefully make decent money and move back to Glasgow.  I'd like to stay with bf (and maybe even get married!).  I'd love to live in London or Manchester too but if that doesn't happen I won't be devastated and I'll be happy with little holidays there.  My job is ok but it's not my ideal job.  If I knew what my ideal job was I would go out and get it!  I would study again and get the qualifications I need.  But I've no idea what that is so I can't.

4.  I have one younger brother.  He is 2 & a half years younger than me so not too much of a difference, but we are just not close at all.  We don't fight or anything, but we are quite distant.  I don't really know why, and it's a shame, but it's hard to do anything about it.  Really my whole immediate family is a mess!  And I'm usually glad to be out of the way in Edinburgh and away from the chaos.

5.  I L♥VE TV & films.  My bf loves his TV too, we're such lovers of TV that our 2 bedroomed flat has 3 TV sets, 2 Virgin + boxes and one normal Virgin box!  So that's one with V+ in the living room, one with V+ in the spare room, and one with a normal Virgin box in the bedroom!  So we can watch whatever we like, whenever we like, and watch different stuff at the same time if we want!  I've got hundreds of DVD's, and always got loads of films taped on my V+.  We both also have Cineworld cares, you know the ones you pay monthly and then can go to the cinema as much as you like?  Yeah :)

6.  I can't drive but I would like to.  Every year I say I am going to learn, but still have not started!

7.  And finally, sometimes, when I'm on the move, listening to my iPod, I pretend that I'm in a film, and the music that I hear from my iPod, is that music in the film, the soundtrack as I am walking around, being in the film!  Daft, eh? :) xx
