1- What’s your favourite season?
It's a toss up between Autumn and Spring. Winter and Summer are so overrated. What I love about Autumn is the leaves turning orange, the colder, crisper nights, drinking hot chocolate while wrapped in a blanket by the fire, the start of a new school year, knitwear and layers and fur collars and chunky boots. What I love about Spring is the bluebells in the forest, the days becoming longer, the crisp mornings, long dog walks in the sunshine, the lime green of the beech trees on my road, daffodils, pastel colours and creme eggs.
2- Your favourite book?
The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness is a series that I have read in it's entirety about six times, which is a lot for me. I also have to mention The Fault In Our Stars, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime and The Perks of being a Wallflower.
3- Where’s your ideal place to live?
New York City. Brooklyn or Manhattan. As much as I love Brooklyn and think about the awesome art and music scene there I think in my heart I'll always be a Manhattan girl because Central Park in the Spring.
4- If you were an animal what animal would you be?
I'd be one of those antelope things or I'd be a flamingo. I've also been told that I'd be a golden retriever or a doe idk.
5- If you were to get a tattoo what would it be of?
I want to get one of those tattoos that don't mean a whole lot but look pretty and dainty and one I won't regret. I'm not a particularly sentimental person so there's nothing in my life that I think 'Yes, that has inspired me to get that tattooed on my skin', but I'd probably end up getting a moon on my wrist or on my ankle or a really pretty intricate one on my finger or something.
6- Favourite song quote?
"I feel like I'm the worst, so I always act like I'm the best." Oh No!, Marina and the Diamonds
I can definitely definitely relate to this line wow.
7- If you could have a superpower, what would it be?
The art of seduction because I am the least seductive, sexy and sultry person I think you would ever meet and I think that seduction through being so elegant and graceful would just be so incredible awesome omg
8- Talk for a bit about something that you like. Doesn’t matter what.
Okay so there's this band called Jukebox the Ghost. *everyone groans* I know, I know but this band is honestly so incredibly amazing and I'm so lucky I found them in that publication of NYLON in June of 2012. I fell in love with them the first time that I heard them, bought all three of their albums and listened to them non-stop for the two months of Summer. They had begun to fall off my radar until in September when they announced a tour date in England for December. I went and I have to say it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I was front row and they were incredible live, they sounded just like the CD and had such amazing stage presence and the fact I got to meet all three of them afterwards was just brilliant. I didn't get to speak to them because me and my friend were being kicked out the club, but then I spent the next six months completely obsessing over them and their stupid faces, seeing tour pictures pop up on Tumblr wishing I could get that night back from December. When we went in Summer to the East Coast, we got to see them again. This time I got to speak to each of the members for about half-an-hour each, even though I was so starstruck it was actually embarrassing. I spoke to Ben about his English heritage and piano and songwriting. I spoke to Tommy about the English education system and how I pretty much rescheduled the whole holiday just so I could come and see them. I spoke to Jesse about lemurs and how yes, England is a long way away and yes, they should come to England again sometime soon. I've gone on about this band for way too long but I've never met three kinder, more talented, more incredible human beings in my life, and the fact that they're all in a band together making amazing music makes me so so so happy.
9- What Hogwarts house would you be in, and why?
I would be in Slytherin. I think. I'm cunning and scheming and not a particularly nice person once you get to know me. Also I'm really selfish and quite ambitious and will do whatever it takes to get ahead. Slytherin has the annoying misconception that everyone who ever got sorted into that house is evil when it's only true of what like 10 students in the span of a good 40 or so years???
