The 25 Things You Didn't Know About Me

- My name is Carraig because my parents liked the name Peter, yet they didn't want a Peter Jr. They found that in Gaelic: Peter and Carraig both mean "rock"and they decided to name me Carraig.

- I have had plenty of odd injuries. I have broken my cheek bone, shattered my knee cap, and dislocated five ribs.

- In my free time, I enjoy playing the ukulele.(Check out my post on ukuleles here!)

- My favorite sport is surfing.(Check out my post about surfing here!)

- I have two little brothers. One of my brothers is a miniature me, while the other shares little resemblance with any family members.

- I went to the Junior Olympics for swimming when I was 9,10, and 11 years old. I never really liked the sport and quit when I was twelve. I participate in swimming now because it is one of the only sports I can participate in on account of a knee injury.

- One of my earliest memories is when my mom saved me from drowning when I was 3 years old.

- My favorite cartoon was Dexter's Laboratory.

- A couple of my of pet peeves include excessive complaining and hypocrisy.

- My favorite meal is Surf & Turf(Lobster & Steak)

- I spent almost all of my First Communion money on Pokemon cards, which was a good choice since I got Charizard.

- My eyes change colors every so often. In the summer they were hazel, but now they are blue.

- It is one of my aspirations to travel around the world later in life. If I could travel to one place, it would probably be Australia.

- My favorite color has always been blue.

- My greatest fear is falling off the edge of a cliff.


- I have eaten four habaneros in my lifetime. The habanero is considered the second hottest pepper in the world.

- I have always wanted a twin.

- I have 34 first cousins.

- A few years ago, I met the Los Angeles Lakers at the Four Seasons Hotel in Chicago.
