Don't Change...

I saw this quote this morning when I was doing my daily (hourly?) trawl through Pinterest.

I just love it.

I love it.

I need to have this tattooed on my brain.

So with that in mind, I'm going to list a few things that I don't tend to tell people for fear that I'll be judged from one group or another!

• I like doing jigsaw puzzles.
• I love trashy TV shows like The Real Housewives and Jersey Shore.
• I'd love to be a housewife. I mean a real housewife, not like those on the TV!
• I prefer books to people.
• I'm scared of horror films. I mean terrified. I can't even watch the adverts.
• I like Star Wars and Star Trek.
• I adore cuddly toys and I still treat them as if they are alive. Try and convince me they're not!
• I don't like 'fancy' foods. All these frou frou flavours - not for me.
• Anything you say to me will be disected at length when I'm alone.
• Small talk exhausts me. Sometimes I need to be alone to recharge.
• I prefer animals to people.
• I sometimes pretend not to know or understand things so I don't upset other people or come across as a know-it-all.
• I worry so much about what other people think of me that my mind never shuts off.
• I like Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
• I don't drink alcohol.
• I love musicals.
• I've never seen the film Titanic.
• I don't like what I look like but don't have the willpower to change.
• I worry more about other people than I do about myself (and I seriously worry about myself!)
• I'd prefer to stay in than go out.
• I don't have many (any?) friends.
• Chatting online (even emailing) is just as horrible for me as conversing in real life!

Okay, this is getting a wee bit upsetting for me now so I'm going to stop.

But that's me - warts and all.

I've just realised something - I've got to be the real me and love the real me, too.
