Fact #24: When I’m tense, I’ll slowly destroy stationery.

I honestly don’t mean to and I never really notice until it’s pointed out to me (usually by the owner of whatever I’ve destroyed, and failing that, disgruntled parents). The worst one of mine is that I’ll just pick apart erasers, little by little, until there’s a tiny pile of rubber snow. Next biggest are papers, I’ll rip in a straight-spiral formation from corner to corner until it’s a paper snake. After that, anything is fair game, I’ve taken apart staplers, pens and tissue boxes.

In the absence of stationary, it’s whatever’s around.

Fact #23: Santa scares me.

I avoid him and his cheery eye contact at the mall at all costs, I just duck my head and walk. The scariest thing ever is when he leaves his chair to go around to say hello to everyone, the only warning I get is when he rings the bell to signal he’s on the prowl. I just wait until he’s distracted by younger children and run by him, hoping he doesn’t see me.

It’s for this reason that my mother has been wanting me to get a photo with Santa for the longest time. I’m contemplating this being her Christmas present but it’s going to need a lot of mental preparation.

Fact #21: I cry easily.

I like to believe I’m pretty stoic when it counts but I’m fairly certain I’m not.

Just the other day the boyfriend and I were playing around and his roommate in the next room started playing the piano. Which I didn’t mind until I realised that he was playing music from the Lion King, Mufasa’s death scene. I started crying, worried boyfriend and a fun time was had by all.

Fucking Simba, you guys.

Fact #20: My hair is disgustingly straight to the point where I don’t really need to brush it.

It’s pin-straight, honestly. It takes a lot of muscle to make it do anything other than be straight. In highschool, I even had a teacher who thought I straightened it every morning.

It also doesn’t respond to products of any sort and though it has moments where it looks like it has some volume, it’s gone within the next 10 minutes.

Straight hair is depressing.

Dreaming of a white Christmas but only ever getting a sort of desert-y one.

Fact #18: My first word was “pussy”.

As I understand it, my parents were disappointed, somewhat regretted leaving me with the cats for long periods of time and especially regretted calling them ‘pussy cats’ around me.

Supposedly, I used to scream ‘pussy’ at people in the street from my pram.

Fact #16: I’ve lived in the same city my entire life.

I was born in Wollongong Hospital, went to Wollongong City Preschool and West Wollongong Primary School. I then went to Wollongong High school of the Performing Arts and from there, got into Wollongong University.

I’m pretty consistent like that.
