7 Things About Me

1. I've had the same dream career my WHOLE life: becoming an author. It's still my dream. I LOVE writing and you have no idea how much I write and how many notebooks I have. I love the stationary section of any store - even grocery stores. [I love the smell of new Post-Its.]

2. I've broken both arms 3 times. And my tail bone 3 times. And my nose once. My big toe once. And my foot is currently healing after breaking my foot after getting stepped on by a girl in stilettos at the school's New Years Ball. OUCH. [I am very fragile, as you probably understand, and my foot is still healing. I didn't actually know my foot was broken until 6 weeks had passed, I was limping for ages and should've used crutches, but I didn't know - I didn't think I was THAT unlucky!]

3. I write lots of poems and songs. I write my best ones in under 10 minutes (AKA "Katrine's Ten Minute Wonders" as my friends and I call them). I've also been published in two poetry anthologies.

4. My favourite food is my MUM's spaghetti bolognese. It's been my favourite my whole life. She makes it for me when I'm sick and on my birthday and other times too ;) And I'm just as satisfied each time.

5. I am 100% Norwegian, but I've lived 10 years abroad; 6 in Dubai and 4 in Singapore.

6. I was born with the straightest hair possible. When I was 14 I cut it to my shoulders.. I've gradually gotten more and more curly hair - naturally. Now my hair is curlier than ever - and I love it! :D

7. I carry a pink stone in my pocket everywhere - I have since I was around 7 years old. I used to bring it with me and rub it for good luck. It always worked. But now I have it in my pocket everyday. As you probably understand from #2 - I'm pretty unlucky!

8. I'm scared of most animals. I'm really scared of dogs, but I want one as a pet. When I was recovering from breaking my tail bone once, I went skiing, and one dog jumped on me, then another one 5 minutes later!!!! I was so scared and I fell over! (That's not the reason I'm scared by the way, I've always been afraid.)

Sorry that was 8 things about me, but I get mouth diarrhoea too often and I'm blabbering now as I'm so happy!! ;D
