50 Facts About Me

Hello! So I've been blogging on here for a while now and I recently reached 100 followers on Bloglovin, so thank you for reading/following/commenting, I really appreciate it.

I thought I'd do a tag that lets you find out a bit more about yours truly...so here are 50 facts about me! It took a while to come up with these as there's nothing quite like thinking up facts about yourself that makes you think 'Oh God, I'm not particularly interesting!' But there we go haha. 

1. I have no piercings or tattoos - they're just not my sort of thing, but I have no problem at all with others having them.
2. My favourite colour is fuchsia pink.
3. I think I've mentioned this before on my blog, but I have a faint V-shaped birthmark in between my eyebrows, which isn't very noticeable.
4. When I was little I had a sort of (but not really) near death experience as whilst 'fishing' by our caravan site in Wales. I fell into a river and was pulled out by my brother.
5. I have no cousins or aunts. My family is fairly small really!
6. Speaking of family, I am the youngest of three children - I have two older brothers aged 24 and 28.
7. I can't click my fingers or swallow pills.
8. I'm quite scared of spiders.
9. In April 2014 I skydived out of the first plane I'd ever been on to raise money for Breast Cancer Care. It was as terrifying as it sounds!
10. I have never travelled outside of Europe, I really want to though! I've only been to France and Spain. I would love to go to America, Egypt or Thailand in particular.
11. I have a scar on my elbow from when I fell off my bike when I was little (what an accident prone child)
12. My birthday is the 15th of October so my star sign is Libra. (I'm 23 this year, ack.)
13.  I am one of those people who is shy when you first meet them but then I relax and open up! Especially if alcohol is involved.
14. My favourite film is Mean Girls.
15. I love listening to a wide range of music.
16. I am embarrassingly quite squeamish, so not really a fan of horror films.
17. When I was younger I went through phases of wanting to be a teacher, actress, singer, author, journalist or model (lol) but these days I want to be a Writer/Journalist.
18. I'm awful at Maths, hated it at school and had to resit it at GCSE level after I originally got a D. I got my C on the resit :) To this day I have still not needed pi.
19. I'm also not great at sport and I'm quite unfit...but I do like dancing on my own and swimming.
20. I have mild Eczema.
21. I really like wedding dresses and like to just look at them every now and then even though I'm not getting married - I'm not hinting to my boyfriend or anything haha I just think they're stunning.
22. There are certain kids films that I really like and will still happily watch as an adult! Anastasia, Mulan, The Emperor's New Groove and The Road to El Dorado are just a few of my favourites.
23. I'm also not ashamed to say that I like Eurovision a lot and I actually think that occasionally some of the music is quite good (I mean, 'Alcohol is Free' - enough said.) Although I know I'm probably alone in that opinion, plus everyone moans about how the UK always do quite badly but I think we can do quite well if we send something good.
24. I like both cats and dogs but I've become more of a dog person since me and my family looked after my Grandad's dog Lucy on and off when he's been in hospital. Lucy is a Yorkshire Terrier and such a sweet little dog. Every now and then I like to share pictures of her being adorable on Instagram so if you'd like to follow me my username is sabrina.jaine :)
25. I am a massive softie - I love hugs and sometimes cry easily (it's good to let it all out though right?!) 

    

    Just thought I'd break up the text with a picture of me and Lucy!

26. Speaking of which, I'm sometimes too nice for my own good and have learnt from past experiences to not let people walk all over me.
27. I love magazines and would absolutely love to work at a fashion magazine like Glamour or Cosmo.
28. I like the smell of bacon but I'm not that keen on the actual thing (I don't like the texture.)
29.  I'm not religious at all nor do I believe in God.
30. I love pizza, chocolate, pasta, crisps, McDonald's etc. Basically lots of unhealthy food...
31. I like chip shop fish batter far more than the actual fish, and the breadcrumbs of KFC chicken more than the actual chicken. 
32. I'm a natural brunette and have had my hair dyed dark blonde for about five years now. I find it interesting/amusing when people I meet think I'm a natural blonde as sometimes I leave the roots for a shameful amount of time (it's often expensive to get it coloured.)
33.  I don't have any allergies...that I know of anyway.
34. I've never broken a bone or been a patient in hospital (I'm hoping I haven't just jinxed it.)
35. I love reading and writing.
36.  I get periodically obsessed with things like songs, makeup items, types of sweets/chocolate, other different foods, etc.
37.  I've never been to a wedding.
38.  I have no idea if I can sing well or not as whenever I sing it's usually for a joke/whilst drunk and therefore I'm not very good because I'm not trying to be good!
39. I used to be almost teetotal and wasn't into alcohol/didn't like it much...then Uni happened.
40. I absolutely hate public speaking.
41.  I have never used a sun bed or had a spray tan, and apart from a gradual tan I'm using at the moment I don't really use tanning products.
42.  My favourite alcoholic beverage is Malibu and Coke.
43.  I passed my driving test first time in my Uni town, Aberystwyth, coming up to two years ago now as I think it was the 11th. So my probation period is almost up!
44.  I am a Feminist.
45.  I have never smoked or done drugs and I don't plan to.
46. I want to have at least two children (a boy and a girl) just not for a while yet!
47. I love helping people, and if I wasn't so squeamish/bad at science I would want to be a Doctor.
48. As much as I want to travel I don't think I'd ever want to live abroad permanently...the weather here might get on my nerves sometimes, but I'm a true Brit and this country is my home!
49. I love sleep. It's the best.
50. My middle name is Jaine. Bet you weren't expecting that one! ;)

I hope this was at least vaguely interesting?! Haha. I really like reading this tag on blogs so if you've done or would like to do this tag, please leave me the link! :)
