A-Z for Members Challenges

I don't know why, but I haven't done a challenge in ages let alone the A-Z challenge I see everyone else do.....so throwing caution into the wind, I've decided to give it a whack! You may fall, asleep or fall off your chair laughing but may I remind you that I am very strange and live in my very own bubble world. Here goes nothing! A is for ACCIDENTS. I am the clumsiest person on the plant. No seriously, I just cause a whole world of pain. My boyfriend just dispairs for me. He thinks it's funny that I keep dropping everything in sight or tripping over something! Nice to know I provide a ... more

The title of course comes from my favourite song from Sesame Street – it is the only word which has every letter from the English alphabet, only once, and in the correct order... I was brought up with various poetic verses to help one remember the alphabet – including “A was an Archer and shot at a frog” - “Nursery Novelties” - “The History of an Apple Pie Written by Z” - “Peter Piper’s Practical Principles of Plain and Perfect Pronunciation” (which includes not only the famous “Peter Piper picked a peck of pepper,” but also tongue twisters based on every letter of the alphabet except X, Y & Z ... more

I haven't done a members picks review for ages so thought I would give this one a shot. Got a funny feeling I am going to regret it though! A is for animals. I love all animals big and small. I am literally fascinated by every living creature, I even like spiders. I am slightly scared of wasps for the obvious reason, I don't want to get stung but I would never kill one, I always chase them round the room trying to get them in a glass to stop everyone else trying to kill them. My boyfriend and I went to Alton Towers for my birthday back in May and while we were wondering about Alton Tower, we ... more

I was inspired earlier looking at other members who have filled in A-Zs of themselves. I like the idea of this kind of a review seeing as I have been a member of ciao now for some time and I see the same faces popping up on this site every day but don't know much about them. I like it when I see a review like this so I can get to know more about the people I often see instead of just their views on products. I hope that this review about myself doesn't bore people too much! * A. Is for anxiety. I wish it wasn't but it is. I suffer massively from this issue. I know a lot of people say they feel ... more

A- A LEVELS I knew from way before my GCSE's I wanted to go and do A Levels wherever it was at school or college. Throughout the two years before my GCSE's I was sick with an illness no one could work out, this illness meant I was off school for quite a long time and this is turn meant that I go quite crap GCSE's. I managed to get four, 2 B's and 2 C's but I know in my hearts of hearts that I WOULD have gotten better if I wasn't ill. In my year 10 exams I got an A in English literature, but because of my illness my teacher took it into her own hands to remove me from the English Literature ... more
