ReplyDeleteMeghan Silva's Blog
Thanks Meghan :) I absolutely love your blog!
DeleteAahh! Thank you Amina! I will be answering all your questions soon :) I really enjoyed reading the answers to your questions. Congrats on no. 8! WOW! Really something to be proud of xx
ReplyDeleteAnytime! :) I meant to post it on your blog but I completely forgot x
DeleteThanks for nominating - I tend not to do these on my blog anymore, simply because I never make enough time to dedicate myself to them properly! I'll answer your 11 questions here though (I hope that's alright!)
ReplyDelete1 - I've been blogging for approx. 6 months now :)
2 - I love coffee. I love caramel syrup is my coffee more than anything. Then again, being a true Brit I do like tea, too, and I do take offence when fellow Brits tell me they dislike tea!
3 - If I was stuck on a desert island I'd want my ex-boyfriend (and best friend) Joe there - if anything her'd make me feel less useless for being stuck on an island!
4 - The last book I read was "The Locked Ward. Memoirs of a Psychiatric Orderly", by Dennis O'Donnell.
5 - I could not live without mascara - I feel so boring without it!
6 - I spent the bulk of my day catching up on sleep - night shifts are not fun!
7 - My biggest pet peeve is people who brag about money. And the new wave of hipster teenagers. Ugh.
8 - I really couldn't choose my favourite inexpensive makeup item - it has to be down to my clear lip liner, baked blushes and brow kit though (all from E.L.F Cosmetics).
9 - I have a guilty crush on Paul Hollywood. Oh that man...
10 - I'd love to have played Leonard in 'Memento' - such a deep and interesting character.
11 - Milk chocolate all the way.
