1. The social etiquette when you recognise someone at the sexual health clinic. Do you wave? Ask them what they're in for? Pretend you're your own doppelganger? Crawl under the nearest chair?
2. How to turn capitals back into baby letters. It's 2015 and we're preparing to send people to Mars for goodness sake, there MUST be a way.
3. How to use the oven without setting off the smoke alarm every single time.
4. One word: budgeting. Just because it's Katies birthday next saturday, does not warrant me the right to blow two weeks allowance on a dress and heels.
5. How to properly take care of my phone. I've had a phone contract since i was 16 and i don't think i've ever successfully made it to the end. My current phone looks like something that's been dropped on the floor twenty eight thousand times which makes sense because it has.
6. Weekly washing. Yet again, my laundry basket is over-flowing and yet again, i've had to resort to buying another pack of Primark's finest.
7. The art of nail-painting. You might remember my post '20 things i have and haven't learned at 20' in which i mentioned how hilariously shit i am at painting nails. Shock horror, i'm still shit.
8. How much pasta is too much pasta? Forever making enough to feed the bloody five thousand.
9. What it means not to drunk text. One-too-many glasses of Pinot Grigio and i'm blowing up my phone looking for a sleepover buddy, needy much?
10. How to french-plait. If your Mum didn't french plait your hair as a kid, was she even your Mum?
Its been a bad-week for me, knowledge wise! Can you relate? Do you have any tips for me? Also, i just realised that this is my 51st post so happy 50 posts to me!! Now, what can i buy myself to celebrate?
- LOVE FROM LORNA, X
I like this concept Lorna. I've seen lots of posts where people record achievements, or what they'd like to achieve before they're a certain age, but there's something just as revealing about hearing what people *don't* know! Great idea.
ReplyDeleteAnd I never had a French plait growing up either!
p.s: I've set myself a challenge to leave 300 blog comments in 30 days and it's been harder than I ever imagined to find content I could genuinely comment on. So thanks for this post! This is comment No.205 ... 95 to go ...
