There has been so many new lovely new people popping into say hello over the past few weeks, I thought I might re-introduce myself to everyone. Rather than writing a rather silly sounding, hi I'm Sophie type of ramble that I've never been very good at.. I thought it might be fun to write a little A-Z about me, inspired by the this post by Elycia.
So this is a little bit about me..
A. Age: 26
B. Bed size: Queen – I’d love a king size though!
C. Chore that you hate: Oh the dishes! I will do almost anything to get out of washing the dishes!
E. Essential start to your day: A cup of tea and a moment to read my favourite blogs.
F. Favourite color: Right now, mustard and purple
G. Gold or Silver: Silver
H. Height: 5.0” - Yes I’m short.. very short.
I. Instruments you play: Piano (growing up) and Cello (for a moment when I was 15 ) I’d love to learn to play the guitar but my hands are too little for reasons stated above.
J. Job title: Secondary school English and Literature teacher. (Part time blogger and all round creative type)
J. Job title: Secondary school English and Literature teacher. (Part time blogger and all round creative type)
L. Live: Everyday like it’s your birthday! Oh, location – Mildura, right up the top left hand corner of Victoria, Australia.
M. Mother's name: Annie
N. Nicknames: My close friends call me Soph or Apps, my family calls me Maggie, and my students call me Apples.
O. Overnight hospital stays: None, thanks goodness, hospitals freak me out.
P. Pet peeve: Annoying repetitive sounds, especially when I’m trying to concentrate
Q. Quote from a movie: “Damn the man. Save the Empire.” – Empire Records
R. Right or left handed: RightS. Siblings: Two sisters
T. Time you wake up: Around 7am on weekdays (but it's so dark and cold at the moment I try to wait until 7:15am)
U. Underwear: Must be black.. If not it has to be really crazy and quirky.
V. Vegetable you hate: Peas!
W. What makes you run late: Living in a small town and knowing it only takes five minutes to drive anywhere. But it also takes five minutes to leave the house (without forgetting anything)
X. X-Rays you've had: Teeth and Arm
Y. Yummy food that you make: I love baking and cooking Italian food. Oh and I’m known for making a good potato bake.
Z. Zoo animal: Owls! I got hold a Barn Owl last time I was at Lone Pine Sanctuary and it was such an amazing experience.
So there you go, just a little bit about me! It was so fun to fill out. Why not do it too! Make sure you let me know so I can check yours out too. It's so lovely to get to know something quirky about everyone.
Much Love
