I’ve been tagged! “Shtuff Y’all Don’t Know About Me But Probably Will After This Post”

Hi everyone! I recently got tagged to participate in a blog post with the above theme. Haven’t done this before so I thought, “why not?!” It will mix things up a little! I was tagged by the lovely Claire at http://msclairehana.wordpress.com/ 🙂

In unrelated news, here are some cakes I got from "Cupcake Camp", a local initiative to raise $ for charity. I'm going to decorate this post with cake pix hehe! 🙂

“The Rules

  1. You must post 11 things about yourself on your blog.
  2. You must answer the questions that the tagger has set for you as well as create a new set of eleven questions for those who you tag to answer
  3. Choose eleven people and link them in your tag.
  4. Go to their page and tell them! [In my case I’ve either told people before posting and/or tweeted them afterwards! ;)]
  5. No tag backs.
  6. Yes, you legit have to tag.”

Part 1: 11 things about me!

Red Velvet cake

  1. When I was a kid, I dreamed of becoming a veternarian.
  2. I have a *slight* obsession with hats and love to wear them any time! Here’s a picture of myself that I took yesterday and surprise – I’ve got a hat on LOL! 🙂
  3. I’m left handed.
  4. I would love to visit Japan and enjoy listening to Japanese music (J-Pop) as well as studying the language.
  5. I have American relatives but their actual nationality is not American OR Australian.
  6. I can while away many hours online without even realising it and admit that at times it is a form of escapism for me!
  7. I have (successfully!) studied at university.
  8. I believe that I am an introvert.
  9. Following from #8, my Myers-Briggs profile is actually ENFP.
  10. I would love to get a new (second hand) car this year… However I’m finding it hard to convince myself that it truly is necessary!
  11. I have seen David Bowie and Bjork perform live in concert, respectively.

Part 2: Answering Claire’s Questions for Me

L: Raspberry, R: Vanilla (this one was my fave of them all!)

  1. You’re given a shopping spree but can only buy one type of clothing, i.e. shirts, blouses, shorts, jeans, etc., what would you buy?
    I would buy coats – I adore coats and have so much other clothing that it wouldn’t matter if I didn’t buy any of those for a while!
  2. The Mayans were right and the world is going to end. You’re allowed one toiletry. What do you grab?
    Shower gel. The hugest bottle I can find!
  3. What’s your favorite sound?
    Decent music.
  4. If you could be freakishly good at something, what would it be?
    Art… or writing… Can I choose more than one?! 😉
  5. What type of life do you secretly envy? I.e. the party girl life, the holed-up bookworm life, the frat boy life, etc.
    The successful internet entrepeneur – I’d love to be able to work from home.
  6. What’s the longest you can go between haircuts before you’re going insane?
    I’m guessing around 10 weeks.
  7. Kill, erm… “make love to,” Marry – Adam Levine, Robert Pattinson, Zac Efron
    Hmmm… Adam Levine – Marry, Robert Pattinson and Zac Efron – the first option!
  8. Sushi or Mexican food?
    Sushi all the way! But I do like Mexican food as well.
  9. You have to take classes in one subject for the rest of your life, what subject?
    Visual arts (practical).
  10. Describe your style in three words.
    Colourful. Accessories. Statement-pieces.
  11. What’s your favorite quirk about yourself?
    That I’m able to remember a lot of random facts and historical stuff about all sorts of things.

  1. What’s your #1 beauty tip? It would be to set my gel/pencil/liquid liner with black eyeshadow 🙂

    Who was or were your celebrity crushes when you were a teenager? I didn’t really have any but I would say James Franco or Joseph Gordon Levitt.

    What is your dream travel destination – and why? I would say America, because everything there is so inexpensive as opposed to here (in Aus) because MAC there is half the price than here!

    Dogs or cats? Dog lover! – I have a dog myself!

    Tea or coffee? Oooo both! Green Tea / Mocha

    Chocolate or cheese? Hmmmmmmm I would lean towards cheese….

    What is your favourite takeaway food? Rice Noodles with Beef & Veges 🙂

    Have you ever had a hair colouring disaster? If so, what happened?! Bleached my hair and left it in for too long?!

    What is your favourite book of all time? (Can be fiction or non-fiction.) Hmmmm book, not really a book lover. But I really liked reading ‘Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing’ by Judy Blume.

    Have you met anyone famous? If so, who where and how? I think I have, I just don’t remember who. LOL

    Why did you start blogging? As a hobby 🙂

  2. Love it! My obsession with hats is quickly growing… Especially slouchy beanies and cloche type hats. I have a short pixie cut, so it makes wearing hats very easy 🙂

    P.S. LOVE that you incorporated all the cupcake pictures. Haha, I shall now head to the nearest Sprinkles cupcakes. Yumm!

    • Hi Claire. 🙂 Yes it’s always easier with shorter hair (hats I mean)! 🙂 I used to have a pixie cut for many years, loved it but set myself a bit of a challenge for my hair at the moment…(Currently my hair’s the longest it’s been in approx. 10 yrs!)
