Hey guys!
So today I really didn’t have an idea of what I was going to post about, since I like to post on Sunday’s because they’re so lazy and wonderful, and then the lovely Becca from Being Becca nominated me for the Liebster Award! I have been nominated a couple of times but I have never gotten around to actually doing it, however this time it seemed like a lot of fun! So basically you write eleven facts about yourself, answer eleven questions from your nominator, come up with eleven questions of your own, and nominate four other people!
So here we go!
Eleven Facts About Me:
1. I am an extremely shy person at first, but once you get to know me I tend to be a little crazy!
2. I absolutely love to read and write.
3. I hope to be a successful writer one day, but I also want to be an anthropologist, archaeologist, journalist, screenwriter, or maybe a criminal profiler…I really don’t have it figured out at all!
4. I adore animals, and have three dogs and four cats of my own! They are seriously my life.
5. I love classic cars, and basically cars in general, which I get from my dad.
6. I have never lived in a neighborhood, and I hope to keep it that way! I love living on acreage and having the outdoors to explore around my house.
7. I want to travel to many places, Paris, Greece, and Scotland being the top three as of now!
8. I am turning 18 in less then a month now, and I have absolutely no idea which college I will be going to next year, or what I will be studying, and that scares me so much!
9. I am addicted to Jamba Juice and I go there so much that the employees know my name and order. I get the Orange-a-peel and oh my gosh my mouth is watering just thinking of it!
10. I am a home body and I really don’t mind being alone.
11. I always have to have my water bottle with me and I freak out whenever I forget it somewhere!
Becca’s Questions:
1. Why did you start blogging?
I felt like I had so much to say, and I really wanted a place where I could share my life, random thoughts, likes, dislikes, fashion ideas, outfits and the beauty products I use. I also love to write, so I feel like this little space on the internet is mine to do whatever I want with.
2. What is your current favorite item of clothing?
I got this green tribal print cardigan for Christmas and I absolutely love it(it is the sweater from my January favorites). It is perfect for days where I don’t really want to make an effort, but still look nice, and it is nice and warm! However, for the spring I am so excited to wear my lilac-y grayish kimono cardigan!
3. Favorite skincare brand?
This is a hard one because I have so many skincare favorites from so many different brands, but my favorite drugstore brand is Burt’s Bees (they came out with a line for animals recently!) and my higher end favorite is First Aid Beauty.
4. What is your current occupation?
I am a student currently!
5. Disney or Harry Potter?
Ahhh I love both! However I have an obsession with Harry Potter so I’d have to choose that. I have read the books and watched the movies too many times to count… I also went to Harry Potter world at Universal Studios last year in Florida, and I just about died. That is my ultimate dream summer job!!
6. If you had to dye your hair a color other than natural colors such as blonde, red etc what would you choose?
This is surprisingly easy because I think it is so pretty when it is done right, and that is lilac! I don’t know why I love it so much, but I think it is gorgeous. I have seen so many pictures of it on tumblr and I just love it. However, I will probably never have the courage to actually do it!
7. False eyelashes or extensions?
Hmm…probably extensions because I think long hair is so pretty.
8. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you be?
On a warm, white sand beach, laying out in the sun with a good book!
9. If you could only watch one program for the rest of your life, what would you choose?
Probably Reign! It is such a good show and I love history. And for some reason I have always been obsessed with Mary Queen of Scots so it has quickly become my favorite show. The characters’ dresses are also SO gorgeous.
10. One rule you live your life by?
I have several, but my dad has always told me “It ain’t nothin’ but a thing” so I try and think of that whenever I’m doing anything scary. Honestly, I love trying new things even if they terrify me. I get so nervous sometimes before trying things like zip-lining or a particularly scary roller-coaster, but I just tell myself it’s just a small thing that will be over in a couple of minutes, so I might as well try it! It’s something that doesn’t allow me let myself down, because honestly if it weren’t for my dad and his saying, I never would have ended up so ambitious to try new things!
11. Your favorite food?
Salsa and blue corn chips!
My questions:
1. Who is your biggest inspiration?
2. What is your favorite thing about blogging?
3. What is your dream job?
4. Favorite store?
5. What is your go-to look?
6. If you could only use one make-up product, what would it be?
7. What is your favorite book?
8. Favorite type of food?
9. What is something that you are looking forward to in the next couple of months?
10. Biggest life lesson?
11. Favorite quote?
My nominations:
I love all of these girls’ blogs, so please check them out!
Thanks for reading, and I hope you have a great day! (:
Hey guys! Sorry I haven’t posted in so long! My mom is opening a bakery – well, just opened today – so my life has been absolute insanity. I feel like I haven’t even had time to breath! Since I haven’t posted in a little while, I decided to do a more personal post, especially since I haven’t had my blog for a super long time. I thought this would be a great way for you to get to know me a little bit better! (:
So here goes!
1. I love animals – probably because I have grown up around them. We have a lot of animals; to be exact, four cats, three dogs, and a ton of fish. That may not sound like a lot but we have a Saint Bernard that weighs 175 pounds and two Akitas coming in at around 100 pounds. So it seems like we have twelve when we only have three!
 |
| We call him “Z” because he has a white Z on his back! |
 |
||
| Always barking! But so sweet (: |
 |
| This is little miss Miki on Christmas morning |
 |
| Al, one of our cats, is by her paw. |
 |
| This is TJ. He’s my dog, I just adore him (: |
 |
|
| They do actually love each other 😉 |
I just adore them! (:
 |
||
| My kitty, Angel. I’ve had her since I was seven and I adore her as well (: |
 |
| And finally, our newest addition, Perry! He’s so precious (: |
(We also have another cat called Mama Kitty, but she is an outside cat for the most part so it was hard to find a decent picture of her. She’s very sweet and adopted us when she had a litter of kittens. Al is actually one of her kittens that we decided to keep!)
2. I love to read. You will most likely always find me with a book of some sort.
3. Consequently, I also love to write. It has really become a passion of mine.
4. I absolutely love milk, but last December I found out I am allergic. It isn’t a horrible allergy, I just can’t have it first thing in the morning or on an empty stomach, and I can’t really have more than a glass a day. I was so sad when I found out.
5. Speaking of allergies, I am also allergic to wheat, egg whites, ibuprofen, pine trees, band-aids, neosporin…basically life. Haha I lead a life filled with daily allergy pills.
6. I have endometriosis; it’s hard to explain but it basically means my body produces too much tissue in my uterus, which causes a lot of pain. I pretty much inherited all of my family’s health issues haha.
7. I have a slight addiction to Jamba Juice – the employees at the store I always go to know my name and order. Their smoothies are just so delicious. If you guys ever go there you should order the Orange-a-Peel. I know, it sounds weird, but it’s amazing.
8. I lived in Tennessee when I was little. My mom is actually from there, and we had to help my grandma when she fell and broke her hip. I picked up a heavy southern accent, because I basically learned how to talk when we lived there. I still say some words the “southern” way, especially since my mom says them that way.
9. I love classic cars; I grew up around them and learning all about them because my dad loves them a lot. It’s a good thing we live on acreage, because we have about 15 project cars that he wants to finish.
10. My favorite color is blue.
11. My dad used to race cars.
12. My favorite numbers are 3 and 87; my dad’s racing number backwards.
13. When I eat pizza (which isn’t too often, as a have to take a “Gluten Ease” pill to eat wheat) I scrape everything off of it and just eat the crust. It just tastes better to me.
13. I don’t like putting milk on my cereal because soggy cereal is disgusting to me.
14. I love flowers; my favorites are Daisies and Gerber Daisies.
15. I love to draw and paint.
16. My favorite things to draw are flowers and animals. I think drawing realistic pictures are so cool and it’s really relaxing for me.
17. I play the viola.
18. I am a swimmer.
19. I danced for about eight years. I still really love dance and take classes every now and then.
20. I don’t know what I want to do with my life and it scares me sometimes.
21. I am obsessed with Harry Potter. During spring break, we went to Universal Studios in Florida and I got to go to Harry Potter World. It’s the best vacation I’ve had!
22. I have an older brother who just turned 22.
23. I’ve never actually seen The Notebook all the way through; I’ve seen bits and pieces, but haven’t watched it in it’s entirety.
24. I’ve always thought it would be so much fun to work as a Disney Princess at Disneyland. I love Disney movies so much!
25. I still have my baby blanket and sleep with it to this day.
Well, there you go! 25 facts about me; I hope I didn’t bore you guys to sleep! And hopefully you guys don’t mind all of the pictures of my babies (: Haha, if you were to look through all of my phone pictures, 95% of them would be of my dogs and cats!
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this post!
What’s something interesting about you?
Have a great day! (:
