Hi my lovelies, hope you are well. Today I have a fab tag
post all about ten things you don’t know about me. I was tagged by the fabulous
Grainne from Tres-Belle which is an amazing blog that you should definitely go
check out Tres-Belle
I love these tags as it lets you know more about me, and it
gives me time to think about things outside of the norm.
So I have to answer 10 questions set by Grainne so lets get
going!
Who are my top 3 bloggers at the moment?
This is such a hard one as I have found so many amazing
bloggers recently from joining lots of amazing groups etc.
My first one would have to be Grace Facesbygrace her sheer knowledge and chatty style of writing drew me in from the instant I
started reading.
Next would be Sera The Style Guide Blog This is a new blog for Sera but her style of writing has a great balance
between being very personal and very informative and her blog design is gorgeous.
My last but by no means least would be Kathleen Squidgymoments she is so down to earth, and hilarious. She has a real love for her blog and
that shines through.
If you could own any animal in the world what
would it be?
Hands down this is easy, it would have to be a meerkat. I
adore them ever since meeting and interacting with them in Africa. They have
such amazing little personalities, and I love the pack and family mentality
they have.
Have you a shameful crush (celeb world)?
Yes, (I will hang my head in shame now) but it is Justin
Bieber he is just so cocky and the way he dances. Oh ladies get me a glass of
water I have come over all faint!! No but in all seriousness, I don’t know what
it is, he has always been my guilty pleasure, at my 30th the DJ knew
to play Justin quite a lot, see how I said Justin we are on first name terms!!!
(in my dreams)
Whats your favourite word?
Can I say Justin, no I am just kidding don’t worry. I think
it would have to be love. I love hearing the word and I love saying the word.
Love can bring up so much happiness etc and I think saying and hearing it can
brighten a day up.
What really gets you mad?
There aren’t many things in life that I would say truly get
me mad, but one thing that makes my blood boil is when I use my blue badge for
the car park, and get out and maybe I don’t have my stick with me that day and
people normally old people will say something. The other day Scott had an old
woman basically argue she should have the space, now normally I would have said
grand take it, but it was a day my walking was really poor and my back was bad
so I thought no I am using what I am entitled to. Along with this come people
using disabled spots when they are just too lazy to walk the extra few feet to
the store. Its things like that would get to me without a doubt.
Do you prefer red or green grapes?
Oooh that’s a toughie, I like red ones but I think I like
green better. I don’t like when you get a bitter red one though eeeek not nice!
What’s your favourite pastime?
Again a tough one, as it varies so much. I love having lunch
outside even a sandwich in a park when I am well enough. I also am loving all the
old board games at the minute, just ask Scott about my obsession with
Battleship. There has also been a lot of times recently I have needed and
wanted to spend some alone time down at Mummys grave just to sit and be at
peace. I think overall a lot of my favourite pastimes revolve around family and
quality time with friends. It doesn’t have to be anything elaborate to be
meaningful remember that
What would be your dream job?
This is a question that makes me sad if I am honest. Before I
took the epilepsy I wanted to be an aircraft engineer or air traffic
controller, and the second I took that first seizure those dreams got
shattered, needless to say I had to change unit course but now I am able to see
that maybe that wasn’t my path and hopefully my blogging will take me further
one day.
If you could learn any language fluently what
would it be?
I lived in Leuven for nearly a year when I was 18 and they
spoke Flemish, I picked up a little conversational knowledge but it’s
definitely something I wish I had of learnt more of. It’s such a unique
language too
What’s the best decision you have made in your
life so far?
Oh what a hard one to finish on. I could say marrying Scott
but is that too cliché, you want something different and juicy don’t you. Well I
think I would say it was moving to Belgium, I wouldn’t have gained the life
experience I have and I wouldn’t have learnt so many skills I still use today.
I would also say that learning to be at peace with the cards I have been dealt
has helped me deal with illness and pain a lot better than what I used to. Yes I
am ill and in pain a lot but I can still smile and realise that there is
goodness to come.
So those where my 10 questions, it’s actually quite hard to
think on answers. So now my questions are:
Who inspires you to blog
What is your worst purchase you regret
What is your favourite food to indulge on
What is one moment from your life that sticks
out
What is your best makeup tip
What is the strangest book you have ever read
Where would you go on holiday if you could
What would you do if money where no object
What would you change if you could
What is your biggest achievement
These are the fab lovelies I would like to tag
So now all you have to do is answer the questions, link back to me and
add the image at the top of the post. If
you would like to then compile 10 questions and link some bloggers.
Thanks for taking the time to take part and thanks again to the gorgeous
Grainne
