30 Things About Me

In light of my thirtieth birthday I thought if share a list of 30 things about me. Some are things most people will already know about me, some are a bit silly and some are quite serious. They're all things that make me the Cathee you love ;) I've been working on this list for a week or two and it was harder than I thought! There's no particular order to them, just as they popped into my head. 

1. I still sleep with a stuffed toy

2. I've been wearing the first pair if earrings Matthew gave me ever since I got them in 2006. They only get taken out for cleaning. 

3. I'm really sentimental & emotional 

4. My husband was my ex boyfriend's best friend in high school

5. I let my imagination play tricks on me, especially after watching a scary show

6. I hate plain milk! Milk products are fine but I can't stand the smell or taste of just milk.

7. I've never had a broken bone

8. I'm not a fan of reality tv. I don't find it very realistic!

9. I am incredibly stubborn & I like to have things my way

10. I love corny jokes! They're punny ;) 

11. I say things better in writing

12. People who can't use basic spelling & grammar frustrate the heck out of me!

13. I love singing, even if I don't know the words I'll make it up

14. I can't watch anything that has too much of a plot

15. I don't think Achy Breaky Heart is such a bad song

16. I still believe marriage should come before kids

17. When I was in high school I couldn't stand my mum!! Now I think she's pretty alright 

18. I am extremely self conscious and worry too much what others think of me. 

19. I don't cope well with change

20. I'm pretty judgemental. In a morally-I-know-what's-best-for-society kinda way, not just to be bitchy

21. I'd do anything for people I love, or even most people who just ask

22. I can't pick just one favourite song. I love too many for different reasons

23. I'm not religious but I don't think Christmas & Easter should be all about presents 

24. I spent more time getting my Education degree than I spent using it

25. I've been on antidepressants since I was 16 

26. I always felt like the odd one out at school and I was picked on for it

27. I don't accept help easily, mostly cos I like things done a certain way

28. I think education & health services should be a top priority for our government.

29. I've been baking since I was 10. I love it but I never have time anymore 

30. I've learnt to play the organ, clarinet, flute & guitar
