Things I did not grow out of

cob_web has this wonderful list of things people told her she would grow out of when she got older, but didn't.

Many of the things on there, barring the Doc Martens and the interesting glasses, are true for me as well, but I think I'll add my own. This could be a real meme!

• Wanting to be a writer -- I actually earn pocket money writing spinelessly nice book reviews
• Wanting my own pet -- I am still amazed that OMG I have my own cats!
• Geeking out on fictional worlds
• Fangirling fictional blokes
• Posters on the wall
• Not having a 'proper' bed
• Flavoured tea
• Putting the volume on my music waaaaaay up so it follows me all over the flat
• An almost missionary enthusiasm for new things and ideas I freshly discovered
• Eating with chopsticks
• My ancient stinky stuffed dolphin
• Fascination with bloke-on-bloke love or sex, AKA slash (only it wasn't called that back then)

Now, which are yours?
