In this post I asked you to guess which five of the following ten statements about me were true and which five were lies. And I'm now going to reveal the answers!
I can tell you that...not one person got them all right! Although a few of you did come very close. Obviously I chose the crazier things about me to tell you so that they seemed unlikely. I didn't want to make it too easy!
Anyway, here is the truth...uncovered!
1. I once worked on a phone sex line - TRUE
Don't judge! I was 20, unemployed and my friend talked me into it. She said, "All you have to do is answer the phone and talk dirty to the men, and it's great money." But it was harder than it sounded and I was terrible at it! They used to hang up because I couldn't stop laughing at them. I once called someone a 'fucking perv' because he mentioned something about animals. I think I lasted about a week before I realised I wasn't going to get anywhere with it and gave up.
2. I have no fingerprints - FALSE
Well OBVIOUSLY I have fingerprints!
3. I'm half French - FALSE
No, I'm not. But I'm pretty good at speaking the language. It was my fave subject at school.
4. I've kissed Leonardo DiCaprio - TRUE
I went to the film premieres of Catch Me if You Can and Gangs of New York in London; they were about two weeks apart. Anyway, I was lucky enough to meet the lovely Leo and yes, I got a kiss on the cheek. What? I didn't say I snogged him, I said I kissed him! That counts!
5. I'm allergic to raisins – FALSE
It would be funny if I was. Would it also make me allergic to grapes? And wine? Because that wouldn't be funny.
6. I'm scared of cockroaches – TRUE
I am. Very. Luckily I've never seen one here in the UK, but that just makes it scarier when I'm abroad and they appear out of nowhere!
7. I've done a skydive for charity - FALSE
I'd love to do this, and if I did I'd definitely get sponsored and do it for charity. But I am yet to go through with it.
8. All my grandparents and great-grandparents are still alive - FALSE
Nope. I have one living grandmother left. She's 91 in a week. For her 90th last year she threw a party where she danced all night with a drink in each hand. This year she's flown to Ireland for the week to celebrate. She's cool.
9. As a kid I was scared of grass - TRUE
I was very small, probably about one year old. According to my mum, whenever we were outside and she put me down on grass I would scream and scream until she picked me back up. However, I was fine when sitting on concrete or tarmac. Or even a picnic blanket on the grass. Just not the actual grass.
10. I've been skinny dippy in Lake Huron, Michigan – TRUE
I worked in Michigan, USA for three months in the summer of 2006. And yes, one night we all went skinny dipping in Lake Huron.

Here in Costa Rica, those nasty things (cockroaches) are everywhere all year round. In hot weather, like in the farms for example, they are like 4 times bigger that the regulars and have a shell (similar to turtles... ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww)
Well, I wasn't that far off :p Fun game, where's the next 10? ;)

now if only u had been able to be top performer at the phone sex line...u wud have been marked man thats way too cool...
:P
still atleast u were there :P
Nice list you have there. I didn't guess what was true or false, but I probably would've been wrong, too. Ha.
mmmm Leo... yummy
I'm with you on the first. I experienced the same scenario where I giggled because the guy was the worst dirty talker I'd ever heard, except I wasn't working a phone line but instead was in bed with a guy, and I didn't get fired but instead I got thrown out of his apartment.
So almost the same.
totally scared of cockroaches too. they are so disgusting.
I don't think I have the balls to work in sex line caller centre. so well done! even though it was short lived.
And I think I'm doing the same thing for my birthday party, better make it a double in each hand!
I think that gives me a score of.. umm.. one. I thought we were meant to guess the opposite of the answers.. yeah, that's right. That makes more sense than guessing what the answers are.
I actually did the whole sex line thing and got told I was TOO dirty...is that possible? It was really funny though. We made alot of money but then spent it on lovely pink sparkling things!
Your nan sounds awesome. I wanna meet her. Actually I wanna BE her when Im that age.
I have heard of kids being afraid of grass or not liking it. I'm kind of allergic to it, so there's that, too...
Scared of grass? That's an interesting factoid :-)
Interesting...I found that I answered false to all of your questions...in fact, I'm now not even really sure if I actually exist!
