A massive thank you to Lauren for nominating me for my 2nd Liebster award!!


What is the Liebster Award?

The Liebster award is an award that is given to bloggers and their blogs with less than 200 followers. Its goal is to promote the bloggers that are nominated.

The rules

1. Nominees must link back to the blogger who nominated them...it's only fair to acknowledge the lovely person who went out of their way to nominate you :)

2. Once you're nominated, you must tell 11 random facts about yourself! 

3. You must answer the 11 questions that the blogger that nominated you asks, too!

4. and finally, create 11 questions for the 11 people you nominate for the Liebster Award! ^_^

11 Random Facts!

Just having to check back on my previous post to make sure I don't repeat myself!

1) I'm a 2nd year psychology student at Uni. 
2) But really, all I've ever wanted to do is write. 
3) Apart from the brief moments I decide I want to become an Astronaut. 
4) I look absolutely nothing like any of my family.
5) I sort of, kind of, really like Hollyoaks. 
6) I have had 19 piercings...I currently only have 9.
7) Which is only one example of how i'm incredibly indecisive. 
8) I am a massive Harry Potter fan, and that isn't shown nearly enough in my blog.
9) I'm the fussiest eater you could ever meet, true story. 
10) I only drink Captain Morgan rum because it makes me feel like a pirate.
11) I love storms, a lot. 

Questions from Lauren

1. What is your ultimate goal in life?
To be happy. Whatever that entails. 

2. Where do you shop the most?
Online, for sure! 

3. What's one of the best most impacting lesson you have learned in life so far?
Probably just to trust my instincts, and to remember that each tomorrow is a second chance...and the best kind of family is the family you choose. 
That's more than one...oops.

4. What's your guilty pleasure?
Man V. Food!

5. What can't you live without?  
My friends, and music. 

6. Do you believe in love?
Yes...although I'd include lots of 'buts' in that answer. 


7. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? 

Right now, I'm dying to go to Canada!

8. How do you think a girl should act, no matter what?

Respectful, of themselves and others.

But that's a blanket rule for everyone, not just girls. 

9. If you could buy one thing, no matter how much it costs, what would it be?
Can I go for something practical like a house..?

10. One pet peeve you hate?
Y'know when some people just do really annoying things when they eat, whether it be eating with your mouth open or talking with food in your mouth, and many other little things like that. It makes me angry. 

11. Your favourite Blogger?
Essie Button :) 

So, I'm cheating and using my questions from the last post!

11 Questions: 

1) Are you afraid of the dark?
2) What movie or song makes you cry?

11) Why do you like to blog?

Nominees:

Liebster Award


A massive thank you to http://glitterbomb-makeup.blogspot.co.uk/ for choosing me to be one of their nominees! I really appreciate this nomination :) 
(I'm not entirely sure what a Liebster Award is...I'll have to look into it, but to be nominated/tagged for anything in the blogosphere is massively appreciated!)

RULES:
You must post 11 random facts about yourself. You must answer 11 questions from the person who chose you. You must create a new set of 11 questions for who you tag. 
You must then tag 11 blogs with under 200 followers and let them know. You can not tag back.

11 Facts:

- I'm a Capricorn
- I have a phobia of cheese
- My first crush was Mick Hucknall from Simply Red. (I will never live this embarrassment down.)
- Over the past 4 years I have developed Tokophobia. 
- I'm a vegetarian.
- I'm also a feminist. 
- Also an insomniac. 
- I love the smell of lavender, but I nearly always smell of vanilla. 
- When I first began to speak, it was with an Irish accent. Which made no sense, considering none of my immediate family are irish and all speak with an English accent. (I was sent to elocution lessons by my primary school because I wanted to join the choir :/)
- I'm 5'3", which is disappointing considering I was always told I'd grow to be at least 5'7" :(
- I learnt to read by watching The BFG. 

My Answers: 

1) Who is your idol?
I can give you 3! Amy Lee, J K Rowling and Tori Amos. I won't get all sentimental, but I literally wouldn't be the person I am with the values and ambitions I have if it weren't for them. 
Personally, I think it's an amazing thing if a young girl can have such strong females as a role model. 

2) Which qualifications do you have?
Erm, 13(?) GCSE's, 3 A-levels, NCFE Level 3 and currently working towards undergrad degree. 

3) What's your favourite perfume?
Viktor & Rolf- Flowerbomb.
Why does it have to be so expensive? :( 

4) Have you ever received any negative feedback on your blog? (Trolls, etc.)
I haven't. But then I've not received all that much feedback so... 
Still, as they say, no news is good news! 

5) What do you hope to gain out of blogging?
I just enjoy talking to myself, really. I like having something else to keep me slightly busy. 
If I get to talk to others through it, that's always an extra bonus! 

6) What's your favourite thing about yourself? (Physically or personality-wise)
Uhm. *tumbleweed* 
My hair's okay when I actually bother to dye it. (As opposed to it's current purple/mudbrown state!)

7) Do you follow a skincare routine?
I attempt to, and then I forget after a day. So, no.
It's the thought that counts, though!

8) Do you have any body modifications?
I have a fair few piercings :) 

9) Is there anything you would want to change about your life right now?
There would be a lot, but I don't think now is the time to get in to that really. Let's not lower the otherwise cheery tone ;)

10) Who is your favourite blogger?
She sang 'The Count' song and she's entertained (and educated) me ever since!

11) Christmas or Birthdays?
I don't particularly like either. (bahhh humbug, I know.) But I suppose I'll say Christmas, just because that's a time for everybody as opposed to just the one person.
