Ten things you didn’t know about me!

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 30^th 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
