I was recently challenged by the gorgeous Cassie of Fly Drunk Monkey to list 10 things about myself you might not know.
Here goes it…
1) I grew up in a Government Housing Commission townhouse.
2) Schnitzel with pepper sauce is one of my top 10 meals. My mum’s homemade trifle is number 1.
3) I count reality television as a necessity. Project Runway, Australia’s Next Top Model, Real Housewives of New York, Rachel Zoe, Flipping Out, Million Dollar Listing… just to name a few.
4) I love singing along to Guns N’ Roses songs and drinking bourbon (from a can).
5) I gave up smoking cigarettes nearly 10years ago. I went cold turkey after learning of the death of a work colleague from cancer. Fuck you cancer.
6) I won a gold medal for the ribbon in my club gymnastics competition when I was in primary school. I still rate myself.
7) I read the radio news in regional South Australia for six months. I sucked, but man it was exhilarating.
8) I tell my kids I love them about 100 times a day. I also tell them to stop asking me for something to eat about 100 times a day.
9) My husband calls me Wordo. He is my best friend.
10) I don’t know my Dad. It’s shaped me, but does not define me.
Can you tell me something about yourself that I don’t know?
Hi, I'm Bianca Wordley, I write about life.
I love these lists, they are always interesting and funny.
I used to love drinking Malibu and coke and only realized it was odd when a work mate refused to buy me a drink cos he was too embarrassed to ask for something so bogan like!
Love the list.
Something you dont know.. I’ve been following your blog for a few months… and today I started my own. It was rather exciting.
I grew up in Housing commission as well, but I bourbon and I Do not mix!

Dads are over-rated…until you have kids of your own and you wonder htf your Mum did it alone.
That’s a bit too deep for this time of the morning. Thanks for the laugh I always get reading your words, wordo 🙂
You won Gold for ribbon?? Well done! I like ribbon gymnastics, it’s so pretty to watch, and I’ve done a little jazz ballet so I appreciate how hard ribbon must be.
I didn’t know Housing Commission had townhouses. I’m in housing commission now, a one bedroom flat where the previous tenant kept pigeons. Inside!! I haven’t stopped coughing for a month now, maybe I’m allergic to pigeons?
Well I was going to tell you my name, and then I wondered what the fun would be in that! Then I thought, I know, I shall tell you how much I weigh only to realise I havent the foggiest. So something about me….. I like (no, no love) American mustard and ready salted crisps.
“It’s shaped me, but it does not define me” – I like that. My relationship with my father is complicated and my childhood was difficult. For a long relationship did define me, but no more. I think I’ll adopt your phrase as my own (I hope you don’t mind.
Thanks for sharing. xx
