i'm calling this Guten Tagging because Phil did that one time and it was the fucking BEST
Rule One: Always post the rules.
Rule Two: Answer the questions asked by your tagger and ask eleven more.
Rule Three: Tag eleven people and link them to this post.
Rule Four: Actually tell them you tagged them.
I was tagged by castiet (or Annie as she's known in certain circles)
top button done up or undone? - Undone, always. I like necklaces and collarbones and I don't like my neck being constricted or rubbed.
your opinion on socks with individual toes? - MY feelings are generally bewilderment? I don't think I'd like how they felt though, my toes would be like WHY IS MY FREEDOM BEEN REVOKED AGH FASCISM
five years ago, did you think your life would be how it is now? - Fuck no, not at all. 5 years ago I was in year 9, I'd only just accepted the concept of wearing makeup regularly. I would not have predicted a barista job, the A-levels I was taking, or my boyfriend. Like, AT ALL. I think I might have decided I wanted to be a psychologist by then, but i'm not even sure of that. FUCK, I don't know that me and Jen had even been proper besties for too long at that point.
anything you’re feeling guilty about right now? - not right now, really. I should probablyb e reading my cognitive psych book? That's about it though.
what would your perfect day entail? - Pancakes with like maple syrup and blueberries and stuff for breakfast, good coffee, spending time with my boyfriend all morning, just like going for a walk somewhere gorgeous in the sunshine and making out and stuff, meeting my friends for lunch somewhere, hanging out with them all afternoon movie marathoning or chilling, then chinese for dinner and going to the pub or a house party or something in the evening. That'd be fab please
favourite month of the year? - I fucking love October because birthday and academia will have started but it isn't properly underway and you can wear jumpers but it isn't like super freezing. Or July? I'm really liking July right now.
childhood favourite film? - I used to LOVE Hocus Pocus. And I could probably recite all the Scooby Doo movies word for word but my favourites would have been the one with the warlock and the Hex Girls because THE HEX GIRLS <3 or the one with the aliens where Shaggy falls for that hippy girl and sings a song about how groovy their wedding would be. I'm not bragging but I reckon I could sing a lot of that song off by heart still. 'I'm in romance, she's wearing bell-bottom pants...'
cats or dogs? - Cats, although I really like dogs too. It's just that I love pretty much all cats but I only really want to own about halfp of all dogs.
what makes you notice a person? - Intelligence, passion and sarcasm are pretty much essentials. I notice people who are just generally lovely as well, that's always good.
a recurring nightmare? - I used to have this one when I was little that I literally had once a year, and my school would be taken over by like supernatural beings like ghosts and vampires and stuff and become Ghoul School (which was another great Scooby Doo movie fyi). I don't think I really have one anymore though?
whats your creative outlet? (painting, poetry, music etc - I write poetry but very erratically, it tends to be when I'm trying to make sense of something, and the way I seem to do that it with poetic phrasing. Or if something has just been building and building inside me and it just boils over in embarrassingly emotional poems that everyone knows full well what the inspiration for was. I sing constantly but I don't know if that's artistic.
Annie those were legitimately really good questions, fuck. My comparitively shit questions:
1. What never fails to make you laugh?
2. Describe your blog in three words
3. Is there anyone in your life that you think will be there in 5 years time?
4. Favourite male musician
5. Favourite female musician
6. Favourite piece of art (as in painting/drawing/sculpture)
7. What makes you really really uncomfortable?
8. Favourite hot drink?
9. An item you've had since childhood
10. If you could only watch three movies for the rest of your life, what would they be?
ALLLLLLLLLL <3
BBY <3
1. Are you happy? - I'm free from exams and I'm using the time to see people I care about. So yeah :)
2. You’ve been given 2 million of your currency. Are you going to be careful with the money? What is the first thing you buy? - A house. One for me, one for my mum, one for my dad. I can't see either parent doing it on their own and I want them to not be renting when they're 80. Also probably lots of ridiculous items. And a trip to India and the Day of the Dead in Mexico.
3. Do you every get ‘good morning’ texts from anyone? - I love god morning texts! If I wake up late I'll sometimes have them from my boyfriend, but we've got out of regular long texts since exam stress - I'll have to recultivate that because good morning texts are the bomb.
4. If your significant other smoked pot, would you care? - He has, I'm sure he would again. Not a fuck given, as long as it's not all he does and it doesn't make him boring and ill.
5. Do you get on well with your dad? - Ridiculously well, I love him more than almost anyone.
6. What is your favourite season? Why? - I really like the Autumn, and I really like the Summer. I like warmth, fire, freedom, summer dresses and huge jumpers, so I'm a bit torn. It's more a favourite half of the year than anything else?
7. What was the worst moment of your life so far? - Nothing stands out, there've been no major tragedies. I had a shitty few days leading up to my uncle's funeral this year - more due to my family's grief than my own.
8. Do people always deserve a second chance? - I think that depends on the act. Some things are unforgiveable, some are. I think it depends on whether you could trust that person again?
9. Do you hold grudges? - I try not to but I can get quite bitter.
10. Ever been in love? - Yes, like right now :)
11. Are you a good cook? - Not at all, I'm incredibly inept.
12. You are only allowed to listen to three songs for the rest of your life. Which 3 do you pick? - oh FUCK, don't do that! Umm, The Lovecats by The Cure, Brianstorm by The Arctic Monkeys, Heartlines by Florence + The Machine. I reserve the right to change all of those with my mood :L
13. Have you ever met up with anyone from the internet in real life? - Actually never, no. I think there's like 3 people from here that I'd like to meet, I have only one of them on facebook.
14. Last thing you saw at the movie theatre? The Fault in Our Stars, today! With my lovely friends Phil and Rachel, who are both very into John Green and invested in the story and aah it was so lovely. I didn't cry once as well, go me.
15. Perks of Being a Wallflower or The Fault in Our Stars? (The books not the movies) Why? - The Fault in Our Stars... I connected to it a lot more. I objectively like what Perks has to say, and the story it tells, but I didn't connect to it and it left me cold.
16. Favourite non-alcoholic drink? - Chai tea with no milk and half a sugar.
17. Name something you dislike about yourself - I can get carried away and be really loud and cocky and it sucks.
18. How long has it been since you last kissed someone? - Like since 2pm? I dropped in to see my boyfriend briefly because we were both in town but couldn't really stop.
19. Do you have any summer plans? - Loads! I'm really looking forward to this Summer, I want it to be amazing.
20. Favourite band? Why? - Arctic Monkeys because they have great energy and their lyrics completely slay me.
21. Have you ever gone skinny dipping? - Narp
23. What is your Starbucks order? - I don't do starbucks because I work for Costa, but my standard coffee order is a small skinny cappuccino or mocha, sometimes with hazelnut syrup if I'm feeling decadent.
24. Have you ever tried Nando’s? - I have! I don't really eat chicken so I usually have their haloumi and mushroom pitta with lemon and herb sauce because I'm a spice wimp.
25. Have you ever liked someone and not told them? - A few people, yeah. I think a lot of them knew though, I wasn't subtle.
26. What is the scariest thing you have ever done? - Genuinely not a clue
27. Last song you listened to? - Death Proof by Kate Nash
28. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be? Why? - I really really love the landscape of the Brecon Beacons/Hereford kind of area, so probably Hay-on-Wye? Hay's a lovely, lovely place.
29. Ever been to Warped Tour? - narp
30. What’s the worst thing that someone has done to you? - There was this fucking boy on my bus that like single-handedly destroyed my self esteem by just relentlessly bullying me every journey.
31. Favourite character from a TV show that means/meant a lot to you? - Rose Tyler meant a lot to me, as do Cosima and Felix from Orphan Black, Annie Sawyer from Being Human and the 10th Doctor.
32. Are you shy? - I can be but not if I'm assured enough
33. How many pillows do you sleep with? - One! I don't understand how people sleep with their neck not straight.
34. Ever been to London? - A few times, yeah.
35. Ever been to New York? - No, although I got a potted history from the boyf yesterday so I'm now very up for a trip sometime.
36. Ever been to Paris? - No -.-
37. Can you touch your nose with your tongue? I can like just about brush the septum? Not really though.
38. Have you ever kissed more than 2 people in one night? - narp
39. Do you collect anything? - I have abandoned collections of cool coins and gemstones/crystals, and I spose you could say I collected cool flyers, tickets and posters to stick up on my walls?
40. Have you ever kissed a stranger? - Umm I've kissed someone I knew the name of and who was a friend of a friend? That probably counts.
41. Favourite movie? Why? - Amelie because it's adorable and funny and french (so really absorbing because you have to pay attention to the subtitles), Submarine and The Boat That Rocked because they've got great casts, are drily funny and really British and have great soundtracks.
42. Is there someone who has let you down recently? - Naah not really.
43. A memory from your childhood. - strutting around my garden in a grey leopard print skirt pretending I was Cave Girl from CBBC on my swing.
44. A memory from last year. - Sitting in a field not knowing anyone and watching my friend's band play excellent classic rock songs.
45. Tell me a story about the first person you think of who’s name starts with a B - Ben! One time he came to a fancy dress party as a ninja and committed so hard that he wouldn't remove his balaclava, so had to drink everything through a colourful bendy straw. It was impressive and hilarious.
46. Jeans or dresses? - Depends on the day! I'm picky about both. I covet a nice dress more than good jeans though.
47. The last thing you ate? - Two slices of toast.
48. Do you want to get married? - The idea terrifies me but I hope that one day it doesn't so sort of, yeah.
49. How many countries have you been to? - Wales, Scotland, Republic of Ireland, Spain.
50. If you could relive any moment from 2013, what would it be? Why? - I had some really really great parties. And filming a video for my friend Rachel's youtube channel with the cutest group of people was fab
Taaah Sian <3 <3 <3
Teacher, Money, Game, <3
Siannnnnnn!
Okay I'm doing this but I need to go to bed so I can teach myself all of core 3 on a day tomorrow and somehow fit in seeing a friend who moved to Aus in year 8 and has just come back and is staying nearby for the weekend.
What do you aspire to be? - Annie's answer's were pretty good. I want to be happy, I want to be surrounded by people who I care about and who care about me (and can also hopefully make me wet myself laughing over stupid things) and I want to be stable - the ultimate dream is to own a house that I'm proud of, because it sucks t have only been in my current house for like 2 years and I don't want that when I'm 40. I also want to be a clinical psychologist, I have this idea that I'd specialise in eating disorders but I'm leaning towards other stuff too.
What would you do with 1 million dollars? - I'd buy a kick-ass house, for myself, mortgage free, I'd give both my parents a big chunk, and I'd donate a fuckload to charity. And save enough to go on like a few hundred pound shopping spree if I could, although a million might not go that far?
What was the last board game you played? - RUSH HOUR <3 Does anyone remember Rush Hour? You have this grid and you set up a gridlock of cars according to a card and then you have to move them around to get the red one out from the middle. My little brother recently got it and I remembered I used to play it at primary school and it s the bomb
sleep now, byeee kids
Amsonia #savetheanimals
YAY I'm in a shit mood, totes need this.
Amsonia: Would you ever become a vegan? - I'm already pescatarian so I feel like maybe this is more in my grasp than many people's? But honestly I don't think I would, no. Currently it doesn't bother me that much morally. I do however really want to get to a stage where I 100% know that everything I eat is free range and as ethical as dairy, eggs and fish can be, and I'm buying things locally and stuff.
Honestly, I only have like 1-2 portions of fish a week and I REALLY crave fish, eggs and dairy a lot of the time, so I just couldn't right now.
talking mad mad shit with s.e.m.
luv u
