Hallo my lovely readers 🙂
How has the day been treating you? I’d like to send every one of you a little ray of sunshine to brighten up your days, or nights with all the positivity and happiness I can muster ^_^!!
I was nominated by two beautiful souls for this award. Firstly the lovely E.H @ Embarrassed Heart’s blog, and secondly by Ariana @ The Quirky Book Nerd, Thank you so much guys, much appreciated. I loved answering your questions! For the rest of you, please drop by their blogs and strike up a conversation with these two, they are lovely indeed.
Ze Rules!!!
*Thank the person who nominated you
*Answer the questions from your nominator
*Nominate 11 other bloggers and ask 11 questions
The questions answered!
#1 What’s the weather like today?
Extremely sunny with a chance of a heat wave
#2 What’s your favourite part of blogging?
Pressing the ‘PUBLISH’ button. JK!
That and writing the post, and also just seeing how everyone responds.
#3Can you name your three latest WordPress/blogger friends? Show them that gratitude!
Lola , Millie , Mayam shout out to you!!!! Thanks for dropping by and for reading! Your blogs are amazing! Keep it up!
# 4 Does the world spin the right way for you?
Not at all, and that is quite quite alright!!
Most times I find things happen in ways I dont quite want it to, or I stress out when I think something might go wrong, eventually when its done and dusted I think back and wonder why I freaked out so much, because in the end everything will unfold itself to me, the way it was planned to and maybe I should chill and enjoy the ride, and that is what I’ve been trying to do for sometime now ^_^
#5 Describe your best friend!
She’s petite and fair and all sweetness-she’s also funny and creative and charismatic-she’s my bae and my side kick, but mostly my sister from another mother 🙂
#6 Are you tall?
Nope. Is 5’3 short? NO FRICKING WAY!
#7 What’s your favourite book?
This question again! Pride and Prejudice (dont jinx it y’all)
#8 Do you play any instruments?
NOPE!
#9 Are you into the romantic world?
YES! nothing wrong with that. I’m a hopeless romantic, in love with love no doubt!
#10 & #11 EH’s sunshine was taken away by the raaiin, so she couldnt complete the list of questions 🙂
1. If you could travel to any period in time, where would you go and why?
Victorian England ofcourse ppfft! Yes, I have an unhealthy obsession with gowns, balls, tea parties and young men in tailcoats and hats.
2. What is your favorite under-hyped novel?
I dont knooww!! Should I have an answer? I dont like the concept of hype.
3. What type of music do you enjoy listening to the most?
I once came across a question along the lines of ‘What sort of music do geniiuses listen to?’ on Quora. According to the answers given, the right music for an individual is the one that uplifts them and inspired them. So basing yourself to one genre is like limiting your horizons. I was glad I had come across someone else thinking along the same lines, as I too do not like to set myself one specific category. Not heavy metal though! No Sirrie!
4. What are three books you absolutely refuse to read?
This question doesnt apply to me. I try to read as many books as I can reach, regardless of genre. If I have to chose, grr. The Lord Of the Rings trilogy. I don’t know why but it has never appealed to me. Could it be that I watched the movies first?
5. Do you prefer series or stand alones?
Hard to say. Stand alones have their charm in being a complete work, where as it is always good to know what happens next. I’m going to go with series as that means more to read though a big bite in one’s pocket!! ^_^
6. What are your favorite and least favorite book to movie adaptations?
Favourite : The 2005 P&P adaptation starring Keira Knightely and Matthew MacFayden!! It was a star cast too! Incredible, with great acting.
Least Favourite: I would have complained of the Mortal Instruments movie, but in comparison to the series I am in love with it, no complains. so I’m going to say The Great Gatsby. Despite the glitzy cast, I wish they had stayed true to the book, the movie lacked so much….
7. What is one food you never get tired of eating?
I am going to pick one category of foods (because I’m not picky really).. I will never get tired of eating marshmallows, meaning they are fun to eat/play with and just sweet
8. What are the most difficult and most rewarding things about blogging for you?
Most rewarding is a sense of accomplishment / sense of having done something once I have published a post, and even better if you the readers seem to like it. I only write about what touches me and if its within my range of interest, so if you like something I do, it is really a happy moment.
Most challenging thing about blogging is finding your voice, and shaping the blog into something that you want, be it the posts you write, the themes you follow and even to the words you chose to use really. I still think I haven’t found my rhythm, I am still experimenting on what I would like to be writing. I want to continue blogging in the long term so I want it to be something I do because I love it and not something that turns out to be a chore in the long run.
Annnnd thats the end of the questions! Hope it was interesting.
Now for some nominees.

4. If you could go back in time and re-live any historical event what would it be and why?

Thanks for the nomination! I just did this one few days back! But I love your questions (I am a sucker for such things and i might do it again just to answer these! :D) and great answers! I loved the way you answered the question about the weather: extremely sunny with a chance of heat wave. Made me think about the movie cloudy with a chance of meatballs and the Disney show sunny with a chance.

Mnay congratulations on the award, and thank you for the ‘shout out’. 😀 I commiserate with you regarding your lack of height. It’s no fun being little. I should know … I’m only 5’2! As for Pride and Prejudice, the book’s appeal never seems to fade.

Yay to be vertically deprived but it has its perks! Flats or heels its all cute ^_^ For me, P&P is the best piece of writing in the history of everything, though many may beg to differ.

I read Pride and Prejudice many years ago when I was at school, and I’m probably well overdue for a re-read. 🙂

Try watching the 2005 adaptation of it too. It’s fun to critique them!

If that’s the version with Kiera Knightley, I haven’t seen it – simply because I’m not fond of that particular actress (or rather, I’m not fond of her pout! Lol) I loved the TV dramatisation with Colin Firth! That was superb…and a hard act to follow.
LikeLiked by 1 person
Yikes! I’ll look out for her pout next time, I enjoyed the older adaptation too. Each had its charms the older one sticking very close to the book. The BBC tv adaptations of all Austen’s novels are really good.
