The Liebster Blog Award!

The Liebster Blog Award everyone. . .! A-Thank you, A-Thank you very much :D


Hellooo! I was nominated a couple weeks ago by the lovely Holly of Inky Quill and Paper to do the Liebster Blog award. I'm sorry it took so long for me to get this up, but I've been QUITE busy with moving in to our new apartment and all. In fact, I've only been here a week and we've moved in, enrolled in school, and done all things involved in cleaning and organizing!
Well, lets get cracking!

This award is designed to help small blogs get noticed. It is supposed to go to bloggers who have less than 200 followers and those nominated are supposed to nominate other bloggers of the same description. Here are the rules of the tag:

~Answer all the questions that are given to you
~Link back to the bloggers that nominate you
~Nominate other bloggers
~Provide nominees with 11 questions 
~You cannot nominate the person who nominated you
~You must inform nominees of your nomination


Here are the answers to the questions Holly has tagged me with:

{1} What's the number one place you want to go in the future?
The number one place I wanna go in the future is probably Europe! I've never been there before. . . I've been to China and Taiwan, but Europe would be such a different experience! Everything seems more sophisticated and artsy and more my style. 
{2} What's your favourite nail varnish shade?
I love painting my nails, and I love to try all sorts of different colors! I do like gold alot, but I also like deep reds and bright summery colors (mint green, corals, light blues, etc).
{3} Who's the most inspirational person that you know of?
I have to say, that the most inspirational person to me so far might be my best friend from Writingmagic26 (Elinor). She's like a role model, an inspiration, and a sister all rolled into one :) <3
{4} If you could live any where in the world, where would it be?
I want to live in a big city. I like the idea of being able to walk everywhere and seeing new people everywhere I go. I like the liveliness and the bustle. (so like New York or LA or London or something like that :))
{5} How do you prepare for blog posts?
I don't really prepare for blog posts. I just get bursts of inspiration and then churn out something. I'm not big on editing or prewriting or anything like that. I just write what I feel like writing. For big posts or tags like these, though, I like to work on it bits at a time. I just make a draft and add to it until I can publish.
{6} What is the most memorable holiday you've ever been on? 
The most memorable holiday for me is when I went to Taiwan with my family a couple years ago. It was so much fun, and I got to see my cousins, uncle, aunt, grandma, grandpa, and a whole lot of other relatives and friends. It was so exciting!
{7} Are you in education? If not, do you work?
Yep, I'm still a Junior in High School.
{8} What's the best thing about running your blog?
The best thing about running my blog is being able to stay connected with people. I'm using this blog to keep my friends updated, and to meet other people who are like me through other blogs :)
{9} What's your number one beauty essential?
When I started this post like a week ago, I would have said mascara. I love mascara, because it's easy to use and it just makes you look put together with out too much effort. But, this past Friday, I had my first football game at my new school. We were supposed to have "natural make up" all day and for the game. I found that my marker eyeliner worked WONDERS. Its easy to put on and it looks really nice!
{10} How do you see yourself in 50 years time?
I'm not quite sure. I'd like to be happy and content that's for sure. With someone I love and a good family. I also want to feel like I've made my 50 years worth the time.
{11} What's your favourite social media site?
As of right now. . . its INSTAGRAM. I just got a smart phone recently and, goodness, I spend day and night on instagram. Its a bit of an addiction. . . Some one help!!! :P
