The Words That Make Up Me: 20 Facts

Hi Everyone,
I'm Brittany Oldroyd, a slightly eccentric blogger and a very passionate writer. At the time of writing this blog post, I'm 21 (almost anyway) and the author of a novel called Segolia: Daughter of Prophecy. I'm about to go into my second year of college (yahoo!) and work my way closer to a degree in English Literature (with an emphasis on Professional Writing).
With this blog, THE WORDS THAT WHISPER, I hope to teach writers about writing, let my fans get to know me, share works in progress, and share my experiences in college and in life. And to start this off, I have 20 facts about me as a sort of get-to-know-you post. So, without further ado, introducing The Words That Make Up Me: 20 Facts:

1. I absolutely HATE it when people say they suck at something or that they can't do something (I could rant about it all day).

2. Rain instantly makes me in a good mood.

3. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it when people call me crazy or insane.

4. My favorite word is monotonous (because it isn't monotonous at all).

5. I have no idea what I want to do with my semi-useless major once I graduate (I might change it since Creative Writing is limited in what I can do with it).

6. I am completely OBSESSED with Lord of the Rings.

7.  I lost everything I had written of Segolia: Daughter of Prophecy in a truck fire that made me have to start over on the whole thing.

8. I'm the oldest of seven kids.

9. I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (a.k.a. I'm Mormon).

10. I love stargazing but I have never seen a shooting star before.

11. I HATE snow.

12. I love kick boxing.

13. I've only had caffeine once and it made me sick to my stomach.

14. I get what I call writing "epiphanies" when I either pace back and forth or sit on a couch upside down (both help me think when I am stuck).

15. I LOVE irony.

16. I love film scores, especially for superhero and inspirational movies (and of course LOTR).

17. My favorite color is sunset orange.

18. My favorite book changes on pretty much a daily basis (because I read a book almost every day).

19. Misspelled words and grammar errors drive me nuts.

20. My face hurts on almost a daily basis from smiling.

Okay, so that's me for you. Thanks for reading and hope to hear from you.
