Holy Cahonies, An Award This Way Comes

I know this is super late, and that I haven't posted in almost a whole month...I'm sorry! I'm on the case...

Charlotte from A Love Triangle nominated me for a Liebster Award! Thank you Miss Charlotte. Yazoo! Happiness!
John from Shout John ALSO nominated me! Which shat all over my plan to nominate him... Thank you John - I'm looking forward to answering your questions!


Rules:
- Link back to the blog who nominated you.
- Answer all of their questions.
- Write 11 facts about yourself.
- Link 11 blogs with less than 200 followers and tell them you've nominated them.
- Ask 11 facts for the blogs you nominate to answer.

First things first, Charlotte's Questions:
1. What time is it right now?
22:07 pm. Past my bedtime if I want to act like a functioning human being in the morning...

2. Would you rather be a fish or a bird?
A Bird. Flying FTW. Plus fish smell bad.

3. What kind of genre of book is your favourite?
Ooohh, good question. This requires some thought.

I can't decide on just one, so I'm going to list what I tend to read most often, in no particular order:

Fantasy
Erotic Romance
Historical Fiction
Young Adult
Paranormal Romance
Paranormal Suspense
Contemporary Romance

4. When lightening strikes the sea, why don't all the fish die?
I have NO idea. 

I dislike not knowing things, so I googled - the fish in the area of the lightening strike do get fried, but because the ocean is so big the electricity disperses, and therefore has a lesser effect the further out it goes.

5. What is to the right of you, right now?
My handbag, a Harry Potter DVD box set, my sister singing karaoke.

6. Why is your blog called what It's called?
Boopy or Boops became a nickname given to me by my bestie. This caught on, and Andrew and Sisterbell both started calling me it too - as well as Maxx (Pips other half). It seemed like a good name for the blog, and gave me an idea for a logo (which I am yet to create!).

7. What goes on-top your Christmas tree?
Personally, I like stars to be on top of the Christmas tree. When I was younger we always has an angel, it was a very nice angel and I liked it a lot. I just prefer stars I think!

8. What did you leave out for Father Christmas when you were younger?
It varied from year to year, I think when I was small it was milk and cookies, and I got older it was milk and mince pies, or cookies. Of course, there were always carrots for the reindeer. 

9. Which came first the chicken or the egg?
It's a never ending cycle of evolution, and therefore impossible for me to say.

10. What is the last film/movie you saw?
I saw The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 in the cinema (twice) over the weekend...

11. Your favourite Disney film is....?
This is very difficult to pin down. there are SO many that I love! Right now, Hook is foremost in my mind! I think I will always love that film - especially the imaginary food scenes.

Great questions from Charlotte! Thank you for those. 

John's Questions:
1. My blog is a mixture of everything. But if you had to choose one topic for your blog forever - what would it be?
The topic for me to blog about forever...my life. ;) a bit of a cheat answer, but it works, right??


2. What was the last lie you told?
I think the last one I told waas...'Yes I've had dinner' (yesterday) when actually I had had a huuuge lunch and wasn't hungry. But then I ended up eating a small dinner anyway sooo....
 
3. What question do you hate to answer?
'Name your favourite book/film/TV Series' It's impossible for me to decide on just one favourite...

4. Which of the four seasons do you love?
hmmmm....I think I love fall more that the others. Halloween, foreworks night, the run up to Christmas, the colours of the trees...blahblahblah.

5. What cheers you up?
A big bar of chocolate, snuggles and a good book.

6. Where is your quiet place? (where you go to think or be alone)
My head. I get lost in my head sometimes! Or I'll go for a walk and sit in the park (usually on my lunch break from work) and just have time to myself.

7. What do you value most in a relationship?
Trust

8. What is the most played song you listen to?
ummm....No idea. Maybe Feeling Good by Muse? Could be any song from several musicals...

9. If you could choose to stay a certain age forever, what age would it be?
25. 25 just seems like a good age - 2 years and 2 months to go until I turn 25, so no pressure on working out the whole immortality thing...


10. At what age would you say - 'you grew up'?
I think it came along gradually, and I'm not enturely sure I'm 'grown up' now. Being the eldest out of 3 children automatically makes you the more responsible one, so I've always had that aspect of maturity becuase of that.

11. Do you think 'everything happens for a reason'?
I'm not sold on this. Sometimes it seems true, and it's good to believe in it. But at other times it's really hard to see where the reason in something is.

11 Facts About Me:
  • I love cheese, and am really looking forward to having cheese and crackers at Chrsitmas. It's just not Christmas without them!
  • I will always prefer to read the book before seeing the film/TV series. I find that it just enhances the experience for me because I know all of the backstory.
  • I love the colour purple. I also really enjoy lime green
  •  A perfect night out for me would incorporate good food, good people, and theatre. A dinner and a show kind of affair.
  • I am part Irish, and part Cornish (Cornwall - a county in Englad that often count themselves sepereately!)
  • I once played Frenchy in a school production of Grease - I had 7 wigs for the performance.
  • I have a bit of an addiction to biscuits. I very easily eat a whole packet of them. No joke.
  • Right this second I am sat in the living room with a glass of white wine, Big Bang Theory on the TV and wishing I had a whole pack of biscuits...
  • I own a Samsung Galaxy S4, which I love and will be sticking with the Samsung Galaxy when it comes to upgrading next year...
  • I've been with my boyfriend for almost 6 years (6 years in Feb)
  • Kiwi makes me sick
Voila. 11 facts...


Thanks again to John and Charlotte for nominating me! I look forward to reading more of these!
