Memoirs of a Twenty Something...

I would like to wish all my friends on Opera a Very Merry Xmas and a Prosperous New Year. I hope 2007 brings you many happy times and good fortune.

I was tagged earlier this week by my online hubby Dan. It has taken me a few days as I have been thinking about my answers so here goes- 5 facts you probably don't know about me:-

1. I am a great fan of ballroom dancing especially the latin side of things. I am hoping to start salsa classes in the new year and am very excited about this! I have also been watching Strictly Come Dancing on BBC1 and my favouite couple won! Way to go Ramps!!! (Mark Ramprakash and his partner Karen!)

2. I love vampires. The books, films... they are just facinating! In fact, I wanna go to Transylvania for my next holiday (after Norway in Feb that is). I used to read the 'Last Vampire' books by Christopher Pike which would just whisk you away from reality. I never wanted them to end and they could be pictured as if it were happening right there and then. Signs of a fabulous writer.

3. My first car was a Rover Metro.It was British racing green and had electric windows and alloy wheels - I named it Trevor after the guy from O-Town too... ha ha. Yep I am just a little crazy, but he is scrumptious.

4. I used to go to Karate when I was younger and competed in the all Ireland Championships. My best position was 4th in all Ireland at Kata. I was really proud of this and would have got a medal if it wasn't for my Sensai's daughter marking me down. I was gutted!!! Even more so when he told me that she had made a big mistake by doing that as there was nothing wrong with that angle Dammit!

5. Finally, my last fact is... I didn't have my first kiss until I was 16 I was really nervous and it was with some guy who used to work in a couple of shops down from where I worked at the time. It was my only kiss with him as we didn't last long - about a week ha ha! I bumped into him 2 years down the line, where he introduced me to his... wait for it... yep u guessed it... BOYFRIEND!!! ... Hmmmm... maybe I shouldn't have admitted that last bit lmao!

So there u have it... Now to Nominate my 5 people:

1. My good friend Espen

2. My crazy friend Thomas Ford

3. My Arsenal Buddy Q-Ell

4. The Lovely Stacey

5. The Yummy YUM!

There u have it - have fun guys
