Taggy Mc Taggerson




Well, I have been tagged by both these lovely ladies: Girl Meets NYC and Confessions Of A Doll. To reveal six quirky/little known facts about me.


Here goes!


1. I have an extreme fear of pressing the bell on a bus for when you want them to stop at your stop. I get really paranoid that I will press it too early and then I will have to get off early because everyone will realise that I had pressed the button and if no one else gets off, the bus driver will get mad at having to stop for no reason, so I will just have to get off at the early stop anyway. So therefore bussing is extremely stressful!

2. I only just got my license, because I hate driving. Which doesn't help because then I always have to deal with issue number 1.

3. I base whether or not I am happy with a season (winter, summer etc) by whether or not I like the fashion. Which is funny, because I always like the fashion. So I am always happy with the season, until the new season stuff starts coming in. Then I get really impatient.

4. I can't help but make up really strange lies, when talking to new people. I don't know why, but sometimes completely ridiculous things come out of my mouth. I once told a new guy at my work, on his first day, that I was a professional tap dancer and a national champion. I'm not sure how long he believed this for. After I said it, I thought to myself "Why did I just say that?? Where did that even come from? He is going to figure out eventually that I'm not".

5. I really love cooking. I'm pretty good at it too. I haven't had a really big disaster meal yet. My favourite thing to cook is a meal called Penne Alla Vodka. That's right, a pasta with vodka in it! It pretty much has all my favourite things! Oh it is delicious.

6. When I greet people I always pull this really ugly angry strange face. So when ever I pass people I know in the street or in the office or wherever, instead of saying "Hi!" I just pull my lovely attractive face. Everyone who knows me is used to it and know that it just means "Hi". But I have gotten into the habit of it so much that now when I walk past complete strangers I pull the face at them! It's not awkward at all.


Yes I am very very normal, as you can see from my above points! NORMAL!



Oh look, some more tagging. Incredibly cool and fashionable and model like Fashion Pariah also threw a box full of tags at me. This tag is to write 11 little things:


1. Clothes Shop

I haven't been shopping much in real life stores lately, as I have been online shopping and making things myself alot. I shop at this little boutique called Frankii alot, as it gets in some cool labels, and has guys clothes too. Apart from that, I love to browse the boutiques along William St.

2. Furniture Shop

I recently just went out and bought enough furniture to fill our house. I actually got most of it from a really dodgy cheap store. But with enough hunting, the quality of the furniture was actually really good and doesn't look too shabby either.

3. Sweet

I don't have much of a sweet tooth, but if I am to have anything sweet I would have brownies for sure. I like to eat them really hot out of a bowl with a spoon.

4. City

I haven't been to many cities. I would have to say Melbourne is up there as a favourite. The shopping made me very happy. I really want to visit/live in Stockholm some day. I haven't been there, but it is probably my favourite city anyway!

5. Drink

Water is my drink of choice every time. Unless I am going alcoholic, then I am a wine drinker all the way. Mmm delicious wine. No I don't have a problem.

6. Music

Music is my life. My favourite band is the Eels. But at the moment I have been listening to Broken Social Scene Presents: Kevin Drew Spirit if... on repeat. Also The Dodos, She & Him and Vampire Weekend are getting a lot of play right now. I just really really love music. I don't know what I would do without it.

7. Tv Series

Arrested Development! Best TV series EVER! Also loving Flight Of The Conchords and 90210. I have just got Gossip Girl season 1 on DVD, I haven't watched any yet, but I have a feeling I am going to love it, judging by the awesome outfits they wear on that show.

8. Film

I love movies almost as much as I love music. So I have a lot of favourites. I love movies like Being John Malkovich, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind and Stranger Than Fiction. I also still am weirdly obsessed with all the classic Disney animation movies.

9. Workout

I never exercise. It's really terrible. I used to play tennis and do JuJitSu though. Oh, I recently won a digital skipping rope! I love skipping! Does that count?

10. Pastries

Not a fan really.

11. Coffee

I actually really hate coffee. So no, I don't drink it at all.

The end


Lastly the forever stylish I Am Ashleigh tagged me, and this was a hard one, with a gold card. Which means I can have anything I want in the world.

I would probably travel the world, but do it in style, as I would be able to afford amazing 5 star hotels. Buy a really cool old house on the beach, that I could renovate really pretty. I would also buy all the shoes and clothes in the world, then put them in a big pile and roll about in it cackling loudly. Seriously. That's what I would do.



So now I tag whoever else wants to play along! Because I am exhausted now from all my incoherent ramblings and cannot decide who else needs some tag love. So I encourage anyone who wants to play to play too! Because playing is fun!

  12. woww! taggy mctag! you sure were tagged a lot.

    i couldn't help myself from laughing hysterically at quirk 1!

    i HAVE THAT SAME FEAR! in fact if i'm with someone else i am adamant that they press it instead of me. haha that's hilarious. i thought i was strange. and i also enjoy vodka flavored pasta, but i normally ask them to hold the pasta. and my best friend tells strange lies too! it drives me mad but is hilarious to listen to. i've picked up on that quirk i think from her.

    annnnddd i love the face. haha. imagining it my head was more entertainment than i need for one day!

Oh look, a comment box! Perhaps you could leave some kind of witty and or kind comment here. Or you could write long lovely poems about sailing and giant windmills. Whatever floats your boat. Just type, right below this writing, yes in that nice blank box!
