The TMI Tag

I've been blogging for about a month now, and I feel like I should do something to celebrate that. So far my posts have been quite limited, mostly being reviews. This week I'm going to do the TMI tag, to help you to get to know me better, and just for a bit of fun.

1: What are you wearing? I'm wearing a vintage-style blue polka dot dress, a yellow belt and socks.

2: Ever been in love? Nope.

3: Ever had a terrible breakup? No. I've never had a proper boyfriend... only the primary school holding-hands sort once.

4: How tall are you? About 5" 6' and a half? I think that's about 168cm.

5: How much do you weigh? I'm not really comfortable to share this, and I haven't been weighed in years.

6: Any tattoos? No and I don't have plans on getting any in the future.

7: Any piercings? None and I don't really think I could take the pain of ear piercing! It probably wouldn't suit me anyway.

8: OTP? I have so many - all from books. I can list them, but it will probably take a while and I'll miss most of them out! My top three book OTPs are probably Zoey and Stark/Heath from the 'House of Night' series, Tessa and Will/Jem in the 'Infernal Devices' trilogy and Laurel and Tamani from the 'Wings' series. But really There are so many more that I love and had to miss off, like 'Divergent', 'The Mortal Instruments' and 'Uglies'. I just love to read.

9: Favourite Show? I don't really watch that much TV. Probably 'This Old Thing' on Channel 4 about vintage clothing or 'New Girl', also on Channel 4. Something that I love watching but is no longer on in the UK is 'Hart of Dixie'.

10: Favourite band? The Vamps without a doubt. I'm going to see them in September with my best friend!

11: Something you miss? Probably being little and doing my own thing without too many worries or caring what people think about me. I also miss my friend who moved to Hong Kong.

12: Favourite song? This is a super hard one, but I'm going to go with my favourite songs at the moment which are 'Me and my Broken Heart' by Rixton, the whole of the 'Meet The Vamps' album and the German world cup song 'Das Dicke Dicke Ding' which I find really catchy and good for me to practice speaking German. Is that weird?

13: How old are you? Fifteen in two and a bit months.

14: Zodiac sign? Libra

15: Quality you look for in a partner? Funny, caring, intelligent, romantic and good with children.

16: Favourite quote? Probably 'Be a fruit loop in a world of cheerios'.  But there are so many inspirational quotes that I love. I really like ones that tell you not to follow the crowd and to be yourself and do your own thing.

17: Favourite actor? I love Jennifer Lawrence. Her personality is hilarious and she isn't afraid to be herself, even in front of millions of people. She's also such a brilliant actress in everything she does and I was so glad when she was cast as Katniss in 'The Hunger Games'

18: Favourite colour? Probably pale blue but I also like pastel yellow and pink.

19: Loud music or soft? It would depend on my mood. I would say medium. I like music with guitar backing and drums, but not heavy metal!

20: Where do you go when you’re sad? Usually my mum or dad, but also my laptop to watch my favourite YouTubers or listen to upbeat music.

21: How long does it take you to shower? Depending on if I'm doing a hair treatment or not, usually between 10 and 20 minutes. But I always turn off the water if I'm not rinsing my hair or washing because wasting water makes me seriously annoyed. At sleepovers, if someone leaves the tap running to clean their teeth they will be treated to a lecture about saving the environment!

22: How long does it take you to get ready in the morning? From waking up to leaving the house - probably an hour. But that includes washing, eating and dressing. The maximum it takes me to do my hair and makeup is twenty minutes.

23: Ever been in a physical fight? No. But if someone isn't nice to me or my friends, or if I disagree with something, I will speak out which can get me into trouble sometimes.

24: Turn on? If someone seems genuinely interested in what I have to say and doesn't behave differently around other people.

25: Turn off? If someone doesn't appreciate me or other people as we really are or if they make racist, sexist or homophobic comments, I will immediately dislike them. 

26: The reason I made a blog? To share my babbling with the world. I don't think that I know a lot about makeup, I'm just really interested in it and I love doing costume makeup. Really I wanted somewhere to keep my ramblings as I begin my GCSEs.

27: Fears? I have so many irrational fears. Trollies (don't ask), trampolines, bikes, scooters, spiders, snakes, heights and swimming are just a few.

28: Last thing that made you cry? Probably reading a book or listening to 'High Hopes' or 'Somebody to You' by The Vamps. My last proper cry was watching 'The Fault in Our Stars'. 

29: Last time you said you loved someone? Probably to my mum or dad last night before bed.

30: Meaning behind your blog name? Mostly that I didn't have the imagination for anything better. I just thought this was appropriate because it basically tells you what I'm going to write about.

31: Last book you read? 'Clockwork Angel' by Cassandra Clare.

32: The book you’re currently reading? The second book in the trilogy, 'Clockwork Prince', also by Cassandra Clare. I've read this series so many times, I just absolutely love it!

33: Last show you watched? 'New Girl' because I got up late and felt like having a laugh!

34: Last person you talked to? My little brother who asked me if he could have some chocolate! I said no.

35: The relationship between you and the person you last texted? I texted my best friend repeatedly saying 'hi' to wind her up. And the relationship? She's my best friend.

36: Favourite food? Hmm. This is so hard for me. I love pizza, curry and crispy duck pancakes so much! I also quite like fresh salad and Cadbury's chocolate.

37: Place you want to visit? I'd really like to go to somewhere like Italy or Greece but I wouldn't be able to cope with the heat! I might like to go somewhere in America because I've never been outside of Europe. I've been to France, Germany and Scotland and I stay in England every year for holidays. I like that though because we live in a beautiful country.

38: Last place you were? I went for a walk with my dad and brother late yesterday evening around my town.

39: Do you have a crush? Yes. And I'm not telling you!

40: Last time you kissed someone? Not since I was about 11!

41: Last time you were insulted? Today by my brothers.

42: Favourite flavour of sweet? I like mint and most fruity flavours. And cola. But do NOT give  me blackcurrant flavoured or chocolate flavoured sweets because I cannot stand them!

43: What instruments do you play? I can sing, play the clarinet and the piano, but I don't have lessons. I stopped all lessons about a year ago. 

44: Favourite piece of jewellery? At the moment I love to wear a silver necklace with a charm saying 'hope' on the end. It's super old so the pendant's gone a bit coppery, but I still like it.

45: Last sport you played? Tennis about three weeks ago! I'm not really sporty.

46: Last song you sang? I'm not really sure. It's either 'High Hopes' by The Vamps or 'New Girl In Town' from the musical 'Hairspray'.

47: Favourite chat up line? I'd prefer to have a  proper conversation than small talk, but the funniest I've heard is,
'Hey, are you in my appendix? Because I don’t understand what you do, but this feeling in my stomach makes me want to take you out?'
I mean, it's just so unfunny that it's funny!

48: Have you ever used it? Nope.

49: Last time you hung out with anyone? I went to town with my best friends three days ago.

50: Who should answer these questions next? Anyone and everyone. If you read this and you have a blog or a YouTube channel- I'm tagging you! Tell me if you do this and I'll check it out.

I hope you enjoyed finding out a little more about me. I found this really fun to do so maybe I'll do another one in the future. If you want to check out my best friend she has a YouTube channel (here). I've also set up a Twitter account and a second instagram but I'm still working out how to put the buttons onto my page. If you want to follow me in the meantime, I'll leave links at the end of the post. I got the idea to do this post from Lauren at Pretty Things & Polka Dots.

Thanks for reading!
