5 Random Facts About Me

"Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade,
Is there a world you long to see?"

Last week, the lovely Kristen from Making Each Minute Count tagged me in 5 Random Facts About Me. I'm finally getting around to it, so let's do this thing!

1. Pet Peeves: Nail biting
My biggest pet peeve is when people bite their nails. If I know you and I see you biting your nails, I WILL tell you to stop. It's disgusting. Just don't.

2. I will only eat a PB&J Sandwich if I'm starving
Everyday, for eight years straight, I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch at school. The day I got an allowance and was allowed to buy my lunch, I was the happiest kid ever.

3. I used to be a runner
I competed in cross-country races when I was a kid and always came in the top ten. Now, although I run on the treadmill for short distances, I don't enjoy running for extended periods of time. That could change though!

4. I have a brother who is 15 years younger and a brother who is 15 years older than me
If you read my "about me" you know I have a brother who is 15 years younger than me. Well, I also have a brother who is 15 years older than me. I only met him a few years ago, and he's got a family of his own, so we're not super close.

5. I'm Canadian, eh?
I'm a third generation Canadian. My mom was born in England and has a Lithuanian background, but my dad and his parents were born in Canada. I always wished my background was more exciting!
(Just because I'm Canadian does not mean that I live and breathe hockey.)

How un-Canadian of us.
Now to pay it forward!
The five people I'm tagging are:

Elizabeth @ Undeniably, me.
Amanda @ Rhyme & Ribbons

Have fun ladies!
