I have reached the unhealthy stage in my life were I need to purchase a large number of magazines in order to feel occupied in the staffroom at lunch. At any one time I will have a giant stack of magazines on my desk. Reading 'Grazia' recently I saw a 10 questions article with model, Tali Lennox. 10 questions in which to truly get to know someone. Since I am never going to be in a magazine and am never going to get asked these questions, I thought I would do it on my blog... So how well does anyone know Eccentric Rach?
WHO ARE YOU CLOSEST TO?
I'd have to say my mum. Cliche though it is, she is the one person I can truly be myself around, warts and all! I won't lie and say our relationship is perfect...we do fight and disagree but we will always be close.
WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST MEMORY?
I remember this huge rock in the back garden of our first house. I used to play around it, on it, with my plastic lions and my pet rabbit, Jasper! It's funny the memories you keep and how I was so fascinated by that rock as a 3 year old.
AND YOUR BIGGEST FEAR...
I do love to throw myself into new experiences and new things but I do wish I could be more relaxed. The fear of being late for anything or just "winging it" fills me with worry. I hate that I am a clock watcher and I have tried to go with the flow... Its just not who I am when it comes to time.
RELAXATION IS...
Sketch book in hand and I feel fulfilled. Hours will pass unnoticed. I am the same whilst dyeing my hair with a good book or magazine. I feel most relaxed when I am alone, when I suit myself and meal times are non-existant as is my sleeping pattern.
WHAT ARE YOU BEST AT?
I am a people person. I love meeting new people and I will talk to anyone. I find that I can meet some amazing people just by going on a night out! Socialising is my strength and I value it.
WHAT DO YOU VALUE IN A PARTNER?
I value honesty. As soon as a guy messes me around and starts to play games I get out. I won't tolerate feeling low in a relationship. They should be happy experiences in our lives.
TELL US SOMETHING THAT WILL SHOCK US...
I'll be honest and say that I can't think of anything you don't already know. I tell my eccentrics everything. I will admit to, every once in a while, loving the feeling of alot of drink. Not regularly, but dancing my heart out to amazing music and sharing an early morning with people I don't know in a club and yet love because we are all enjoying this 'high on life' feeling is something I love!
WHEN DID YOU LAST FEEL REALLY HAPPY?
I am a naturally happy person but the last time I felt as though I could cry from hapiness was my last holiday to Keswick with my best friend. The roadtrip in the sunshine, the people we met, living off pizza and cold beers, spontaneously finding a club at night and making new friends and dancing til dawn. Walking back to the campsite, barefoot and laughing in the rain is a feeling I will never be able to match.
WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST REGRET?
I suppose dropping my Art course after AS-Level has to be a stinger. At that point in my life, it didn't feel like something I needed in my future, but I was a different person back then. Now it is everything to me and I do sometimes feel that I lack skill which I would have learnt had I stayed with it. I always want to take it up again but never know where to.
WHAT'S THE ONE THING YOU'D CHANGE ABOUT YOURSELF OR YOUR LIFE?
I wish I cared less about what people whink about me. It comes through in my blog posts, like I am completely free and don't care about how I am percieved but I do tend to worry. It is something I need to work on, that ability to completely let go... that and my short legs... add another 6 inches and I would be in proportion!
