10 points to your Hogwarts House if you get the reference in the title.

Vital stats

Who doesn’t love an awkward bathroom mirror selfie?

Name: Lauren.
Nicknames: Emo Trash, Loz.
Birthday: April 12th.
Star Sign: Aries.
Occupation: Baby sitter by day, paranormal investigator by night.

Appearance 

Hair colour: Dark brown.
Hair length: Medium-ish?
Eye colour: Brown.
Best Feature: Pass.
Piercings: I used to have 10 😭 now I only have snakebites and my nose. The main ones I miss are my nape and my industrial.
Tattoos: YES!!! I have two currently; a music note on my left wrist and birds on my right arm, but I want soooo many more. I would love to get a whole sleeve one day.
Right or Left: Right.

Firsts 

Best Friend: It was this boy whose parents were friends with mine and we grew up on the same street. We used to play matchbox cars and have tea parties with strawberry nesquik 😂 and his older brother taught me how to push myself on a swing, haha. I moved when I was 6 and we lost contact with each other. Sometimes I feel weird for still remembering him because he probably doesn’t remember me at all 😂
Award: I won the end of year (funnily enough) book award my school did in year 2. The book was Black Beauty, but we moved like 8 times since then and I have no idea what’s happened to it.
Sport: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Netball at school? I loved being Wing Defense. That’s as far as ‘sports’ go for me though. Unless watching football counts because my dad was a huge fan so I grew up with it.
Real Holiday: The closest thing to a holiday that I’ve been on was when I was 6 and went down south to Denmark (Australia Denmark btw, not Europe Denmark 😂)
Concert: THE WIGGLES 🤘🤘🤘

Favourites

Film: Almost Famous. I actually find it hard to watch though because I relate to it so much. I was sorta in a similar position to Penny Lane and it just takes me back to times I’d rather forget, haha. I love how raw and honest it is.

 

TV Show: Parks and Recreation.

Colour: Black and Pink.
Song: Okay this is actually crueler than asking me what my favourite book is, but I’m just going to mention three songs that I absolutely love with every piece of my heart.

 

Restaurant: Does Boost Juice count as a restaurant 😂
Shop: Besides whatever bookstore I can find there’s a record store in Perth called 78 Records and every time I make a trip down to Perth I go there. I love it so much. Also Typo because they sell the cutest stationary and home-ish things.

Books:

Actually that’s kind of a lie, but I feel like I’ve mentioned them so many times people would be sick of hearing it, but Percy Jackson and Harry Potter. [cue audible gasps and shocks]

Currently 

Feeling: like my allergies want me dead.
Single or Taken: Single and not wanting to change that.
Eating: Nothing.
Thinking About: How I want to claw my own eyes out.
Watching: Nothing.
Wearing: Marvel tee and leggings.

Future

Want Children:

no thank you 30 rock please liz lemon swipe left

Want to be Married:

Careers in Mind: Web design. Sloth Hugger. Professional Nap Taker. Professional Crier. Following a band on tour. WAG.
Where You Want To Live: Realistically Melbourne, but dream-wise London.

Do you Believe …

God: No
Miracles: No.
Love at First Sight: No.
Ghosts: Well I am a paranormal investigator so…. When you hear a disembodied voice and have furniture being dragged across the room….. It’s kind of hard not to. I’m extremely open to the paranormal.
Aliens: Hell yes. There is no way we’re alone in this universe.
Soul Mates: Platonic soulmates, yes.
Heaven: Not in a religious sense, but I do believe there is an afterlife of some kind.
Hell: See above.
Kissing on the First Date: Each to their own. Whatever you feel comfortable with.
Yourself: Not at all right now, but I’m working on it.

Tagging:

Everyone who wants to! I’d love to get to know you all better 😊 I also have a million tags to do so I don’t wanna overdo it, haha.

  1. I finally got my hubby to watch Almost Famous a few months ago cause I couldn’t believe he never had & he loved it. IT’S SO GOOD!!!

    I saw it initially because the kid in AF is Zia in Wristcutters: A Love Story & I adore that movie. ❤

  2. AAAAH LAUREN ❤ You're too sweet, those things you said put a huge smile on my face. You are the best !!
    Tattoo sleeves look SO good, it's a piece of art with you wherever you go, but I can never do it haha.
    That Almost Famous sound like a great movie, I should proooobably watch it when I'm done with all this exam craze.

    1. Awww, I’m just being honest 😘

      They look so amazing. I’m just worried I wouldn’t be able to pull it off, haha. I’m honestly the most indesicive person ever so I’m really surprised that I managed to get tattoos. Music is so important to me though so I guess that wasn’t a hard a choice 😂 I don’t even know why I got the birds, but there’s six of us kids in my family so it was like an unintentional sibling tattoo 😂

      It’s so good!! Perfect balance of humour and drama.

  3. Ohh, the paranormal investigator sounds like a really unique job, how did you get into that? It must be really interesting and I guess it does leave you open to the paranormal too.
    Also I love Parks and Rec, I think on the gifs you used in a previous post made me start re-watching the series and oh I still laugh just as much watching each episode the second/third/fourth time as I did the first!
    But yeah I’m so glad you did this tag, it’s been great getting to know more about you!

    1. It is really interesting! It kinda happened accidentally, haha. My whole family have always been open and interested in the paranormal because we’ve all had our own experiences and just find the subject interesting as a whole. My mum knows a guy through her work who runs a historic settlement outside my town and he said we could go out and check the place out if we were ever interested and then it just kinda went from there and now we’re running mini tours. A few people said they’d like to see a post about it so I think I might do that and delve into it a bit more 😀

      Haha yes, that makes me so happy that my post made you want to re-watch it! I think it’s a show that will never get old.

      Thanks so much, Beth ♥

      1. I’d love to see a post about it, it sounds really amazing and it’s not something I’ve ever seen anyone else actually delve into 😀
        Everytime I see anything Parks and Rec I want to re-watch the whole show, it doesn’t take much to make me want to go back and watch some of the old episodes, it’s should a brilliant show!
        That’s all right ❤

  8. Love this post so much!! And getting to know you through all these wonderful details 🙂

    What’s a book award? Did you win the book, or read it and then win for reading it? And netball! I looked it up, have never heard the term before. Lovely lesson on the Australian way 🙂

    Hoping your allergies get better!

    1. Thanks so much 😊

      The “book award” at my school was just like a general high achievement award that one person from each grade got at the end of the year and the prize was always a book. Oh, I had no idea that netball wasn’t a worldwide thing! Thank you for also teaching me something, haha.
