Get To Know Each Other-5 Things About ME!
1- i have 4 brothers who make my life well lets just interseting.2-if i find a book i love i wouldn't put it down.
3- my friends nicknamed me the bookworm.
4-i want to own a library/bookstore.
5-i miss reading actual books and not just buying or downloading ebooks.
i'm in the middle, 2 older n 2 younger. i also have a little sister who just turned 5.
Wow my wife has 4 brothers too. One older, three younger. The two youngest were twins and were (shhhh...an accident!) haha!
1. I have always lived in NC but now I am in the Appalachian Mts. near Appalachian State University and it has been a little bit of a culture shock, but it is beautiful so I am surviving :)2. I am a stay at home Mom of 2 little girls.
3. I like reading on my Kindle, but I still love the feel of a real book in my hands and see them sitting on my shelf the best!
4. My husband and I love to travel and our goal is to take our children to visit all 50 states before they turn 18, So far we have crossed off 17 states and Montreal/Ottowa Canada.
5. I am an only child and I have a hard time understanding why my girls love each other one minute and hate each other the next...lol!
Love #4 I love traveling too, would love to travel the states! Awesome you take your kids to travel with you! They get to see lots of places! Thats awesome!
Haha #5! My bro and I were the same way!
#5..sisters are like that! I have only one little sister. We are three years apart, and we used to drive our parents crazy! I think the closer they are in age, the worse it is! I have 4 kids. My oldest, Alison, is 15. I have twin boys, and they are 15 months younger than Alison. Its a bit like having triplets at times! The three of them are AWFUL! As in fighting with each other, not as kids lol!
Well lets see..1) I own a book blog in swedish called iheartfantasy.blogg.se .
2) I actually breed Russian Blue cats. But because I've not moved from home yet it's not actually ME who owns the cat breeding. And I will not continue with it when I'm out.
3) I study science (my second year right now)- but physics is really not my thing.
4) I am totally addicted to books, movies and tv-series - but still, I am not socially distrurbed.
5) I have many unfulfilled dreams.
That's it, I guess. ;)
Oooh Russian Blues are so beautiful and sweet! My wife's parents have one named Alex :)
I am trying to think of 5 good things for everyone:1- I adore all of those celebrity gossip magazines and shows. I once wanted to be an paparazzi but found intruding in ppls lives like that too creepy.
2- when i was little i slept in the room the former owner died in (natural causes)my house wasnt haunted but there was definite activity. my dad told me years later he had heard a lot of strange voices/noises when i was a baby/young kid too.
3- i have looked for evidence of vampires/ghosts/etc. on google. So far no luck
4- i love animals so much i once knocked on the door of this really shady lookig house and yelled at the ppl for allowing their cat to suffer from an untreated upper respitory infection. foolish? probably, but the kitty looked 100x better a few days later :)
5- my dream is to visit all of the wonders of the world and all 50 states before i go to heaven.

Wow @ #3 on searching for vampires stuff and if they're for real :) well ghosts are souls so they're practically real.

Our house we just moved from was very haunted! 2 different ghosts--one was a girl, I'm not sure how old, but she didn't like me much. It was my hubby's house before I met him, and when I dated him strange and weird things happened to me a lot when I was over there. She got better after the kids were born.
There was also a man that didn't show up often, but he was a little scarier. He hung himself in the attic 70 years ago or so. Or so that's what local legend says!
Its nice to be in a brand new house with no ghostly presence! lol

My friend Sophie lived in Salem, Mass as a teen and she used to do a ton of research. I believe ghosts/spirits are real. Sadly, I dont think vampires are. Not as we know them to be anyways. A shame. I want a mix between Aiden (Being Human) and Edward Cullen of my very own <3 lolz
Yeah, I'm afraid I don't believe in vampires, either. I would believe in werewolves first! lol

There is an old abandoned mental hospital called fairfield hills in newtown ct with underground tunnels. this place operated back when they did lobotomies and ppl were sent to hospitals and held in cages until they passed on. all the guards and ppl claim its haunted. i was this close to getting my boyfriend to explore it with me one night BUT a newtown cop chased us away and told us we should be ashamed for ghost hunting at our ages (late 20's) lolz
the underground tunnels was were the mortuary was, the lobotomy rooms, the cages, etc. There are rumors of patients who had nowhere to go when the state closed it so they still live down there! Like in "The Hills Have Eyes"! IDK how true that is. I mean they have to eat eventually.

I hated vampires previously when I saw Dracula in his casket in movies.

Well technically, I go there to do what ones does in a toilet, I just take my iPhone with me and don't come out until I at least have a chapter read. LOL. My kids must wonder why it takes me so damn long to go to the loo!
