20 THINGS I'VE LEARNT ABOUT MYSELF IN 20 YEARS

Since I recently turned 20, I feel like a know a fair amount about the sort of person I am now... though I definitely don't have my life figured out by any means! I also find posts that allow you to find more about the blogger interesting so thought I'd share 20 things about me here.

1. I love exploring and travelling - Whether it's a completely different country or even just a new place within somewhere I'm already familiar with, I want to visit as many different places as I can!
2. Learning has always been something I've enjoyed - I actually really liked school but besides that, I just like to learn and expand my knowledge as much as possible.
3. I'm generally a pretty calm and chilled person - Most of the time I'm a very laid back person and don't get easily stressed or angry.
4. I'm a hard worker but also equally good at procrastinating - I always work hard at whatever I do but I would probably get it done much quicker if I didn't procrastinate as much!
5. I enjoy things that challenge my mind - Quizzes, riddles, puzzles, brain teasers, games...basically anything that stimulates my brain will be something I enjoy and if there's an added competitive element then count me in!
6. A large amount of my diet consists of various forms of pasta - I understand that this isn't necessarily as telling about my personality but since I'm very pasta obsessed I thought it was significant enough to share.
7. It's very common of me to mix up my words - Anyone that knows me will be well aware of how often I'll combine two words together or sometimes will just say something completely different than I intended. I don't know why and luckily it's not happened in a more formal situation yet!
8. I've accepted people will always call me short even though I'm well aware - Yes, I'm pretty short, but by now I've realised that so you really don't have to tell me again!
9. I actually really enjoy baths - I never really got them and would lie there just feeling a bit hot and bored but you've really got to make it something. Find something to watch, grab a drink and maybe some snacks too. It's a game changer!
10. Definitely a night person - I always have more motivation and find myself being more productive at night, I feel like if I was an animal, I'd definitely be a nocturnal one for sure!
11. I have a pretty decent memory - Most often I have a very good recollection of past events or random bits of information. For instance, I can remember tiny details about holidays from when I was little or pretty pointless things like the various wifi passwords and phone numbers that I've had before.
12. I'm a very creative person and appreciate little details - Whilst I definitely love creating in terms of art and things like that, I also just appreciate a sense of creativity, detail and like to make things as aesthetically pleasing as possible (often linked to my procrastination habits!)
13. Nostalgia is a big thing for me - I love keeping little mementoes and remembering different memories, one of my favourite things is to look back at old family photos and videos!
14. I like to think I'm good at finding positives in most situations - I like to think that there are always different perspectives to things and I'd definitely call myself an optimist or glass half full kind of person!
15. I can't wait to design a house of my own - Ever since I can remember I have loved interior design and the thought of decorating. I always used to draw designs for rooms when I was younger and was obsessed with collecting paint chart samples, I literally have so many it's weird.
16. There are a lot of words I really don't like - Now some of these words probably make sense because they refer to something that's not that nice but others I don't really have a reason for, such as supper, moreish or autumnal. 
17. I'm an avid list maker - I don't get how people can not make lists, they are so useful for everything and it's super satisfying to check things off!
18. I don't really have a specific film or music taste - What I mean by that is if I like it, I like it. I don't necessarily prefer action over romance or pop over indie. I'm definitely more interested in some genres than others but in general, I like a variety!
19. I can be incredibly indecisive - This can be very frustrating, it just takes me so long to make a decision and it can be the simplest thing. Don't even get me started on naming things, I found it hard enough when playing The Sims or Nintendogs so god knows what I'll be like if I have children!
20. When I enjoy a tv series I get really invested - For instance, if it's a mystery related thing I'll spend way too much time thinking about it in depth so I can work it out before the characters. I'll often watch multiple interviews and panels and also get invested in the actors themselves as I like to see what else they've been in!

This was actually really interesting to write, I don't often spend time thinking about my various personality traits and what makes me who I am! I'd love to see other people try something like this so let me know if you do!
