  • I've always had a morbid fascination with dialling 999.
  • I cried at the end of Lilo and Stitch. I don't even cry at funerals.
  • I used to wish that I'd get locked in my high school over the weekend. I had a whole survival plan. It involved raiding vending machines and sleeping on the crash mats in the PE department. Never had the opportunity unfortunately.
  • I used to be infatuated with the postman at my work. When it was around the time he usually came I'd make sure I was around to meet him.
  • If I were seeking revenge I would never consider murder, vandalism, harassment or torture but I would seriously look into adultery and blackmail.
  • I have an obsession with mirrors. I like to see myself. I'm not conceited, I just like to always be aware of what I look like. I drive with the sun visor down and the mirror open so I watch myself as I drive...nope, not safe.
  • I salt all of my food pretty much.
  • I used to take advantage of my father's money.
  • Sometimes I crave attention so much I WILL take my clothes off.
  • I've never called any of my teachers "mum" but I've called my mum teacher's names.
  • To me it is vitally important that I have the most up-to-date mobile phone, calculator, iPod, straighteners, binocular microscope, laptop, digital camera, car, skis...everything. So I'm materialistic. I wish I wasn't; I'd be much happier and much richer.
  • I want to be ginger.
  • Heath Ledger was one of my favourite actors but I feel like I can't say that now because people'll think I'm just one of those "fans" who just crawled out of the woodwork after he died. He was truly great though.
  • I love ironing.
  • Four people have come very close to dying because of me. It's only chance that saved them, things could've gone very differently. I will always feel responsible.
  • I believe what I read in my horoscope.
  • I would NEVER ask a guy for his number, ask a guy on a date...or make any sort of move in that direction. I'm a bit old-fashioned in that sense. Don't like to do any of the work
  • I collect sachets of condiments from restaurants.
  • I SERIOUSLY daydream to the point where I've got about a dozen different story-lines all going on in my head.
  • My world was shaken when I discovered that Zac Efron did not sing Troy's parts in High School Musical.
  • I used to have a whole polar-bear suit and between the ages of 5 and 8 I wore it religiously. I alternated between my school uniform and my polar-bear outfit. It was really muddy 'cause I used to play outside in it.
  • There are very few alcoholic drinks that I actually enjoy drinking but I over-consume anyway because I like the way it makes me feel.
  • I can't help staring at really tall people.
  • Ditto with fat people.
  • When I was little my favourite toy was a giant calculator with coloured buttons. I'd sit for hours figuring out what all the funny symbols did.
  • My friends and I used to choreograph You've Been Framed videos in an attempt to get the £250.
  • Since getting behind the wheel of a car I have ended four rabbits, a badger, a cat, two dogs, a deer and about fifty-thousand mice, rats and shrews.
  • I've "tried on" the second names of all the guys I know.
  • In my last year at high school I fell asleep in the second floor toilets one lunchtime.
  • I've been known to fish for compliments.
  • Being popular has always been really important to me. Not popular as in trendy but I just really really need people to like me.
  • I pretend to be bad at things that I'm actually pretty good at (dancing, spelling, singing, maths, driving etc) because I think that for some reason people will like me more if they think I'm hopeless.
  • I only buy brand-name products. I stay well away from own-brand stuff if I can help it.
  • When someone doesn't understand something that seems easy to me I feel pretty good.

Good god, I am such a bitch...
