Basic Info| Name: | Swings and Roundabouts... |

| Location: | Birmingham, England, United Kingdom |
BioI am Laura. Usually known as Law or Lu by my friends.
I am 22.
I have a fella. He is called Tom and he is The One <3
I constantly seem to be in the centre of some kind of drama, and personally I think that makes for interesting reading!
Someone on my FList described my journal as being like a teenage romance novel. Judge for yourselves :)
I'm always eager to meet new people, so please don't be shy. Simply comment to be added.
Vital Statistics:
1. I have recently developed a fear of falling over. Honestly. Whenever I’m walking, I have an image in my head of me slipping or tripping over and falling. It’s horrible.
2. My knees are slightly deformed. It means I put all my weight on the sides of my feet, so it stretches out my shoes. It also means I have terrible balance. I’ve just re-read that - it sounds hilarious. You’ll be forgiven for laughing.
3. I recently took a personality test and it turns out my ideal profession is Counselling. Funnily enough, I’ve already started studying to become a Counsellor at college. Win.
4. My GCSE English paper got stolen and was never found. They had to give me my predicted grade, which was a B and I don’t think I did as well as that on the exam. So whoever took it probably did me a favour. Even so, you are still a horrible person for nicking it and I hope you have a fiery throne waiting for you in the depths of Hell.
5. I am really irritated by errors in punctuation and grammar. I get even more angry about it when people do it on purpose. Da most annoyin fing eva iz ppl typin lyk dis. ENGLISH, MOTHERFUCKER - DO YOU SPEAK IT?!
6. I physically cannot drink tea. When I was really little I used to drink it out of a beaker and one day, my dad left the teabag in. Incidentally, this was the same day said teabag decided to split. I got a mouthful of tealeaves and I haven’t been able to drink tea since. Mentally scarred!
7. I have a round scar on both of my thumbs from when my cousin Josh ran over them with his trike years ago. To this day, I still don’t know how that possibly could have happened. Just my thumbs?! How?!
8. Give me a tub of Nutella and a spoon and I’ll eat the lot within minutes.
9. I need 5 alarms to get me out of bed in the morning and sometimes that isn’t enough.
10. I sometimes wish I grew up in the 80’s.
11. I actually love Maths. <3 EQUATIONS <3 .
12. I always have loads of hair bands in my pockets or in my bag, but I never wear my hair up.
13. I have to look behind my shower curtain every time I go into my bathroom. I’m not even sure what I’m checking for anymore, I’ve done it for that many years.
14. I constantly have a crease in my skin just above my belly button because I slouch so much. I am terrified I’ll end up with a hunchback.
15. I don’t sing in the shower like most people claim to do. I mime.
16. If someone tries to chat me up and I’m not interested, I tell them my name is Gertrude. This works for two reasons;
1) The guys who believe me would probably prefer to not be associated with someone called Gertrude.
2) The others will realise I’m lying and take the hint.
17. I suffer from Sleep Paralysis.
18. I once stole a programme from church by mistake. I didn’t realise it at the time but it should have cost 25p and I felt guilty about it for years. I didn’t even want the stupid programme.
19. I was a complete idiot in Years 10 and 11 at school. Antics included: using a ball of pink wool to make a spider's web in a classroom, getting locked in the drama studio after a practical joke on the teacher went wrong, standing on the table and reading out my form teacher’s Valentines card to the rest of the class, pretty much emptying the cupboard of art supplies into my bag and getting stuck on top of a vending machine.
20. The best school trip I’ve ever been on was when we went to Aberystwyth at college. I came home with first-degree burns to my face and a fat lip. Good times.
21. The first time I ate a Magnum ice-cream I was sick in my Aunts car afterwards. Sorry Sue!
22. On my 18th birthday, I was mistaken for Rachel Stevens by a drunk / crazy woman who thought I’d be able to help her get a loan from her bank manager due to my fame.
23. When I was 11, I threw up in the Houses of Parliament. Heroic win.
24. I have never dyed or even highlighted my hair.
25. My family is massive. Through blood and marriage I have 18 uncles and 17 aunts. I can’t be bothered to count how many cousins and 2nd cousins I have. But put it this way; we’re more like an army.
