50 Facts About Me

I have seen a few bloggers and YouTubers share 50 facts about themselves and I think it would be fun to jump on the band wagon. I have plenty of blog ideas at the moment but I am finding it difficult to express these thoughts and put them into words so I've decided to upload this post in the meantime.

1. My full name is Tyler Thorne. That is all. But a lot of people just call me Ty
2. I feel deprived of a middle name (but I am also grateful that I don't have an awful middle name that I hate, so thanks Mum and Dad... I think)
3. When I was younger I used to make up middle names for myself that included Rose and Bunny - sorry but WHAT? haha
4. I used to hate that my name was predominately used for males until I met another girl called Tyler in McDonalds when I was about 9 and I came to terms with it
5. I now love stereotypical boys names for girls i.e. Dylan, Drew and Riley
6. I am currently 19 years old
7. I was born on the 5th of December 1995
8. It was snowing the day I was born (which is unusual for Guernsey)
9. I live on a small Island called Guernsey, which is in-between England and France
10. I was born in Guernsey but grew up 8 and a half years of my life in Perth, Australia
11. I moved to Perth when I was 2 years old
12. I have a pet cat called Sydney
13. I would LOVE to have a pet dog
14. But I am allergic to fur so I would have to have a hypoallergenic breed

16. I absolutely love my job, the people I work with and the fact I am constantly learning when I am at work
17. I would say I am creative and I love making videos and editing, just for fun
18. I love taking photographs (and have recently just bought a new Canon G7X for photos and film)
19. I enjoy taking long walks along the beach (okay this is starting to sound like a dating profile)
20. I have an older brother who is 21 years old, called Zak
21. I love watching movies and my favourite would have to be Burlesque

26. I have been fortunate enough to travel a lot in my 19 years visiting countries including Canada, USA and Australia
27. I enjoy cooking - particularly Jamie Oliver meals from his cook books
28. But I don't like cleaning up after I've cooked
29. The sunshine makes me happy
30. I LOVE fillet steak - yum yum
31. I think I have an addiction to blueberry muffins (if you're in Guernsey seriously try the yoghurt blast blueberry muffin from Alliance. You. are. welcome.)
32. I like my eggs poached - there is nothing quite as satisfying as poaching an egg then popping its centre to see the bright yellow yolk poring out over some toast
33. My parents are my best friends
34. I am very family-oriented and I love spending time with my grandparents, cousins, aunties and uncles
35. When I was about 9 I won the Western Australian 100m hurdles at the State Championships - random fact, I know but I thought I'd just throw it in there

37. I learnt to play indoor beach volleyball in Australia when I was around 8 years old
38. I think Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares USA is hilarious (Go and watch the episode called Michon's on 4OD "NASTAY")
39. I have a face full of freckles that I usually don't even notice until someone mentions them
40. I feel confident without wearing makeup but I tend to put makeup on because it's fun to apply and experiment with new looks
41. My favourite TV program is One Born Every Minute
42. I have both skied and snowboarded. Although I am not particularly great at either, I do prefer snowboarding - I find it more challenging and exciting
43. If I find something I really want I end up convincing myself that I NEED it. I do research more expensive items before I purchase them though

46. I like having painted nails but I hate the process of painting them
47. I'm sh*t scared of spiders

49. I have so many thoughts and ideas that I struggle to put into words. I am working on that
50. I am clearly new to this whole blogging thing and I am most definitely not a writer 

Writing 50 facts about myself was actually much harder than I first thought. I hope you enjoyed getting to know me a bit better. 

Thanks for reading

Bye for now x
