I've seen the Liebster award making the rounds of the blogosphere recently, and I think it's a great way for newbie bloggers to get to know each other, so thanks to Gemma for nominating me! I had so much fun answering the 11 questions she set out for me, so I've done the same for the other bloggers I've nominated.. Some people nominate others with under 200 followers, or just simply newbie bloggers, but I've just tried to do a mixture of the two, or simply people I've come across who haven't had their blog for very long :)
The rules for this tag/award are:
1. Thank & link the person who nominated you.
2. Answer the nominators 11 questions.
3. Nominate 11 of your favourite blogs - You should believe that the people you nominate deserve this award & include the link to their blog in your post.
4. Create 11 new questions for your nominees to answer & notify these nominees of the nomination via social media/blog.
Here we go..
1.What made you start your blog?
I've always been a fan of reading other peoples blogs and had been for years, but I was always to nervous to put myself out there and start my own. It was getting to the point that I was reading blogs on a daily basis and I realised how much I missed writing, so I started the blog as a place to be creative, share my pictures, my writing and my thoughts. It's also another alternative to the tradition CV in my eyes, for future employers to look at.
2. If you could do anything you wanted right now, what would it be?
If we are talking anything, it would be to travel to one of my favourite places in the world, probably be New York. If we are talking something big, I would be acting.
3. Where would you most like to travel to, but have never been?
I love visiting new places and there's an endless list of places I would most like to travel to, so I'll have to do top 3. At this point in time, I would have to say: India, Santorini and Australia are high on my bucket list.
4. What is a favourite memory of yours?
I have so many, but most of my favourite memories belong to when I was younger, doing simple childhood stuff in primary school, playing out, doing kid stuff, or are from recent years when I've travelled to some amazing places. I can't pick one!!
5. What would your perfect day look like?
My perfect day would start with having a little lie in, but not too late so it could be long and productive! I'd get up, have a yummy breakfast in my pjs and maybe watch a little something on television. Then I would get ready, maybe go for lunch or shopping, afternoon tea if we are calling this PERFECT ;). I'd go for a walk to work off all the yummy food I ate, then the evening would involve just staying in in my pjs, having my favourite food and watching a film, possibly some form of Netflix. If we're staying out, it would be dinner and drinks all the way.
6. If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to and why?
What a hard question. Each year has something great, and something not so great as that's life. 2011, 2013 and 2014 were great years for me for many reasons, but I can still remember those in great detail so I'm going to say 1999, so I can relive the last year of the 90's. I'm so glad I'm a 90s baby.
7. What makes you the happiest?
Little things make me the happiest. I'm happy when I'm doing something simple, like watching a film or my favourite tv shows. I'm even happier when I've just had an amazing acting experience, something that I know I'll learn from. I'm happiest when I'm just having a nice day with my friends or family.
8. What is your proudest accomplishment?
There's lots of ones that I'm most proud of in the past few years, but without going into detail, at the moment I would say I'm most proud of what I am doing, and making certain things happen for myself and working for them :)
9. What did you want to be when you were little?
I remember going through phases that changed daily, one day it was a teacher, then it was a dancer, then it was a vampire slayer, as you do. I remember always loving dancing and putting on plays, and that hasn't changed to this day, (apart from the dancing bit). I still love acting and being in plays/performances so it definitely makes sense as to why I loved it so much when I was younger.
10. What is it that you enjoy the most about blogging?
I love the whole process, thinking of a post, photographing, writing the content and checking it over and over until you finally click publish :)..
11. Where do you see yourself in 20 years time?
I (hope) to see myself with a cat first and foremost, yes I am a crazy cat lady and I need to seriously fulfil the dream of having my very own kitty kat. Anyhoo, I hope I am settled down at 41 (gulp) with a lovely cat, home and family, preferably in a place other than the town I am in now, no offence B-town, I love you, but I don't think we are meant to be together forever..
