50 Random Facts About Me

Hello, everyone!

So it's been a month an a week since I last posted on my blog and I'm very, very sorry! 
With all my tests I got distracted and put this aside for a while... But not anymore! This is my fourth attempt at a blog and I can't just give on it like I did with the other three (I am a disgrace to be honest). My tests are not over yet but I will try harder to actually carry on with this "blogging thing".

I don't quite know what things I want to write about yet, what subjects I want to focus on and let you know about, so for now I will keep talking about my favourites and do random posts (like this one, kind of), so bare with me :)

Any way, a ramble isn't what you're here for, I think, so lets get on with the post...
