1. This is the first time in over 2 months I've hitRECord. I've found myself in a funk the last couple of months and have to work even harder on balancing between mania and depression.

2. I am insomniac and got used to having no more than 4 hours sleep a night. When I was younger I would hold my breath to the point of passing out. Luckily I've got a huge DVD collection now so I just throw in a film or three and watch them. Or roam the internet for random stuff...

3. I can quit smoking whenever I want to and then start again. I haven't touched a cigarette in over 7 months - until a week ago. And if I feel like it, I'll quit again tomorrow. I will never understand people who find it hard to quit smoking.

4. I can be surrounded by people who love me and still feel like the loneliest person on the planet.

5. I daydream. A lot. Every day! My daydreams are my sanctuary.

6. I hate the taste of milk. I have my cereal with yoghurt or kefir - unless it's Cocoa Puffs. Milk in tea or coffee is alright because I won't taste it. Chocolate or banana milk is acceptable.

7. I once almost eloped to Las Vegas. The plan failed - I didn't have a passport. Otherwise I'd now be... divorced...

8. You will NEVER see me wear white socks. I HATE white socks! Urgh!

9. I alphabetise my DVD and book collection.

10. I am terribly afraid of heights. If I see a program about rock climbing, skydiving or whatever on telly I have to look away because it makes me feel all dizzy and I freak out. But I love flying.

11. I was more mature at 17 than I am now at almost 28.

12. I am struggling to come up with 25 things about myself...

13. When I was 4 years old I pulled my sister under the kitchen table and cut off all her hair. At age 6 I pulled the chair from under her and she fell into the radiator. My mum and dad had to take her to the hospital because she needed stitches. While they were gone I asked my nan (who was looking after me) if I could have my sister's dessert because "she'd have a terrible headache and wouldn't want to eat it anyway".

14. I'm almost 6ft tall... I'm a girl (woman - whatever) I HATE being so tall...

15. I have a weakness for English accents... Scouse, Scottish and Cockney are my favourite!

16. I have to separate M&M's and Skittles by colour before I can eat them.

17. According to an online porn star name generator my name would be "Missy Banger" ...

18. I'm scared of dogs, hate spiders and centipedes freak me the fuck out!

19. I've currently got a crush on 3 different people...

20. My favourite cocktail is a "Swimming Pool" . I can drink Vodka & Redbull all night but loathe Tequila.

21. For the last two weeks I have cried myself to sleep every night. I find it to be extremely cathartic.

22. I own over 30 different coloured nail polishes.

23. I am planning on moving to the UK in October. Unless I find a well-paid job here in Germany. I'm secretly hoping I won't because my sister lives in the UK and I miss her more than anything in this world... (even though I cut off all her hair and put her into hospital) She is my best friend and not one day goes by that we don't talk to each other over the phone or Skype.

24. I'm a pretty optimistic pessimist...

25. It took me almost 3 hours to come up with these 25 things. Thank you for baring with me. And THANK YOU for helping me hitRECord again after a rather long (involuntary) hiatus... ♥
