Now this is a post I would describe as very 'bloggy'. I made this blog as a kind of therapeutic mechanism (as you can probably tell by my rather argumentative opinion posts!) that would also help with my writing skills alongside my degree. It's also a rather fancy thing to put on your CV, I mean blogging can pretty much be a part-time job. So it is always pretty strange to me that there are hundreds of you reading my blog and associating me in the actual blogging world. I just think it's just me, myself and I. Instead of talking about something or someone else, this post is all about me! My friend Ellie from amourellie.blogspot.co.uk nominated me for something called the Liebster Award (thanks!)- a blogging award that acknowledges new bloggers in the blogosphere. I have to answer the 11 questions Ellie has kindly given me and then nominate my favourite blogs that have less than 200 followers with my own questions. Suppose it's a good opportunity to know me a little better...
1) What inspired you to start blogging?
My obsession with other peoples blogs. I believe there is nothing better than reading the honest opinion of like-minded people before you buy something.
2) What is the best meal you have ever had?
I can't say I have had one particular meal that has stood out to me as being the BEST. I did have a pretty good roast dinner last year in halls that was cooked by my housemate who is a culinary student. I think it was the blessing of a proper dinner cooked by a semi-professional chef that made it amazing.
3) Where is your favourite place in the world?
New York. It is just amazing. It is my life ambition to live there one day. That or Disneyworld in Florida, I fit in there pretty well...
4) Which celebrity would you most like to have for dinner?
I can't pick one! If I was to have a dinner party then the guestlist would include Ellen DeGeneres, Alan Carr, Julie Andrews, Walt Disney, and David Beckham. David Beckham for obvious reasons...
5) What is your favourite thing about blogging?
The chance to just freely write about things I love. There are no rules, only your own. I just love writing about anything that takes my fancy and then reading other peoples reviews for similar products.
6) Go out partying or cosy night in?
I do love both but if I had to pick it would be a cosy night in. Sometimes wearing no make up, eating loads of food, and watching trashy TV is just bliss.
7) What are your goals for 2015?
To get a good grade for second year, to get the placement which I love, and to just have a good time with it all. Stressing out about things is just so not worth it!
8) What is your favourite type of post to write? Why?
Recently I am loving the foodie ones. Recipes are pretty fun to write and to do as well. It is also a good excuse to eat and procrastibake.
9) What job did you want when you were little?
Every job under the sun. I remember the main ones being a teacher, a ballerina, and a paramedic. I also wanted to be a nutritionist which I suppose I would still love to be but science is just not my strong point.
10) What is your worst habit?
Cleaning as a form of procrastination. I tell myself that I am being productive which realistically, I'm not.
11) What has been your biggest achievement?
I'll say my ski season. It was the most tiring, testing, and challenging thing I have ever had to endure but I survived with no broken bones or any other extreme disasters. It was the best time of my life. I look back on it now and wonder how on earth I managed to cook 4-course meals, 6 days a week on 4 hours sleep and still manage to have so much fun.
My questions for my nominees:
1) What made you pick your blog's name?
2) If you had to use one brand of make up for the rest of your life, which one would you pick?
3) Are there any new topics you want to do blog about soon that you may not have tried before?
4) What 3 items would you take if you were stranded on an island?
5) If you had to shop at one shop for the rest of your life, which one would you pick?
6) What is your most played song on your iTunes?
7) Heels or flats?
8) What is your earliest memory?
9) Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
10) Post your favourite photo.
11) If you could go back in time, where would you go?
My nominees are my friends- and some of them haven't blogged in a while so hey, here's an excuse ;) haha.
