wee_mango1. Where did you grow up?
I was born in a little-ish town called Lisburn and when I was wee, lived in a place called Moira (not to be confused with the place called Moria from Lord of the Rings lol!) and lived next door to my cousins with mum, dad, and brother. We then moved to Belfast and have stayed here ever since; think we've been here for about 15 years or so, although I say I'm from Belfast because I've lived here for so long & also anyone abroad knows where Belfast is so, yeah, it's easier ! ;)
2. Have you ever been to Indiana?
Nope.
3. Describe yourself at age 18:
Just out of school with 14 qualifications (in June 2004) and lookin' for a job. Got a temporary one in November 2004 up to Christmas Eve that year and then they asked me to stay on for another 6 months. Ended up leaving because I had exams to study for and with their stupid 'holidays' system it would have meant I wouldn't have been able to revise enough for them. Also I have a feeling they were messing me about with my money and around that time, my contract would have been expiring soon anyway so it sort of made sense. I still have a paypacket to collect from the place but am too scared to go & get it! o____O *manager scares me*
4. How do you deal with pain?
Eeeh, I tend to bottle it all up. I dunno, I don't like people seeing me cry; it makes me think that I must look so weak infront of them blah blah blah. If I do cry, it's when I'm alone. I like to take it out on the playstation though, usually calms me down after a wee while by playing Grand Theft Auto: Vice City :D *loves*
5. When is the last time you screwed up?
Mmmmm, I dunno, I don't think it would have been that long ago....*whistles*
Oh and YAY! Finished 1st year of this course and now can do 3 weeks of work experience/placement; got that sorted about 1hr and a half ago :) Plus, the parents are away to Verona for the weekend to see the Eagles in concert so bro and I have the house to ourselves - WHEEEEEEEEEE! PARTAAAAY!!! *ahem*

I haven't even gotten to see the Eagles yet, much less in Italy!
Lucky dawgs, your parents. ;)

sunny for most of the concert, but the split-second they
started "Witchy Woman", it clouded up and the weather went
seriously weird. They were lucky to be able to finish the
concert! That had to be my strangest concert experience.
Still, I enjoyed it.

Very freaky about the weather thing, Catherine! Where'd you see them, btw?
I Can't Tell You Why, Those Shoes, & Desperado are my three all-time fave Eagles tunes. :)

Date: 2006-05-27 01:35 pm (UTC):D ;) Lol it was dark by the time they began playing. I think the town we saw them in was Luca/Lucca & I happily watched them because it had cooled down; not a big fan of hot weather :/ I think we have footage of camcorder somewhere hee hee hee ;)
