About Bethany

A more “professional” blurb is on the way, but in the meantime, enjoy the below…

bbj-about2v2:: twenty bits & bobs about yours truly :: 

// 1. I’m a quote-a-holic with notebooks full of them.

// 2. I say I love tea, but can only stomach earl grey with one sugar and milk. Coffee has my heart *thumbs up*

// 3. Myself and shopping just do not mix. Maybe it’s because of the decisions and choices and I’m incredibly indecisive.. I don’t know. But I just really do not like it. Expect “Bethany Bad-Mood” to make an appearance.

// 4. My middle name is Jae…  A letter. I know right? Hated it as a girl. Love it now.

// 5. Spent my 21st birthday in an orphanage in the Philippines.

// 6. Not a fan of The Notebook. Sorry ladies (and some guys).

// 7. Am a big believer in brunch dates… it’s also converted me into an avocado lover – oh hey eggs benedict with avocado and feta cheese and hollandaise sauce on the side, where have you been all my life?

// 8. I get way too emotionally involved in TV shows and Wikipedia the entire plot line before & while watching it… I still get surprised, so it’s all good though. Current all-time faves include: 24, Criminal Minds, The Bible Series, Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars, Hart of Dixie, Gilmore Girls, Once Upon A Time, Without A Trace…

// 9. Am unashamedly a total sucker for pop music. Hellooooo Kelly Clarkson, Hilary Duff, Justin Timberlake, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift…

// 10. I once watched Camp Rock every Saturday for a good few months.

// 11. “George” has been my family nickname since forever. Don’t ask. I don’t even know the how or why.

// 12. Am 5’1. Fun fact (or not): 12 years old I was the tallest girl in my class. 18 years old, I was the shortest and the same height as I was when 13 years old. Too funny.

// 13. Coriander… not a fan of it at all.

// 14.  Enjoy Church is my church. Been part of the family for the past 10 years. Forever grateful and it’s shaped my world like no other.

// 15. Communications – online, print, video, through storytelling & design – rock my socks bigtime.

// 16. Cupcakes. I. Love. Cupcakes. And baking. I. Love. Baking. And bagels (so much so that me and a friend, who also lurves bagels and NYC, went on an adventure around Melbourne in search for the greatest local bagel. Good times). I just love baked goods and food, really.

// 17. Travelling destinations thus far: America, Canada, New Zealand, Vanuatu, Pacific Islands and the Philippines… hoping to add many more in the future.

// 18. I have a major and very irrational fear of birds.

// 19. My car is called Charlie.

// 20. I giggle. A lot.
