Day 1 #30daysofme

This is me, just now.... Don't get much more recent than that

 

1)  I left school half way through 7th form to become a writer.  I am not a writer......

2)  My first ever real grown up job was working for a clothes place called Galvins in ChCh.  I lasted 1 day, I hated it.

3)  I am the last of 6 boys, my oldest brother is 19 years older than me.  I have no sisters.

4)  I have four tattoos.  Two on each arm.  I got my first tatttoo in Geelong after I had travelled there to consumate an internet romance.  I left Australia with the tattoo and no relationship.

5)  I never took singing lessons or sang solo in public until 5 years ago.  Since then I have sang at weddings, civil unions and on TV

6)  My first ever band obession was Duran Duran.  I was obsessed with Nick Rhodes.  My parents thought I was gay.

7)  I am quite self concious and shy.  I hide this.

8)  Personally, I am happier now than I have ever been in my life.

9)  I was confirmed in the Catholic Church at age 11. Soon afterwards I stopped going to church and believing in God

10)  I had never seen a dead body until I saw my mother in her coffin 3 years ago.  My father passed away last year.   I am not sure I truly understand that they are dead.

11)  I become obsessed with things, the obsession never lasts.  I can be fickle.

12)  I have keloid scars on my shoulders which I hate.

13)  My first crush was at age 10.  I told her, and she never talked to me again.

14)  For years I thought the line in the Carbury Creme Egg song that goes "such a devious boy, heavens above" was "such a devious boy have a spud"

15)  Age 14 I read Midsummer Nights Dream for the first time, in one go.  I finished about 3 am and burst out crying.  I have no idea to this day why it made me so upset.  I have never read it again.
