The Liebster Award!!

I've seen this on many blogs, and I've always wanted to do an award post, but have never gotten nominated. So, when the amazing Emily from For The Bookish nominated me, I was super happy. So, go check out her blog cause she truly is AMAZING, and is probably one of my favorite bloggers ever. And, thank you Emily!!

First things first, the rules:

1. Thank the blogger who nominated you, and link back to their blog. Check!

2. Answer the 11 questions from the blog who nominated you. 

3. Nominate 11 bloggers to receive this award. 

4. Come up with 11 questions for your nominees!

Now, onto Emily's questions!!!

1) When did you start your blog?

Well, if I remember correctly, I started my blog on November 12th, 2014. Meaning, I am a blog baby, and I am currently learning tons of things about blogging :) However, this isn't my first blog. the other one was one I co-blogged with a friend, which is weird cause usually you would co-blog after you've blogged solo. 

2) Do you have a favorite quote?

Well, I'm very into quotes, just ask anyone!! However, I don't think I have a favorite. My top ones are "If you can dream it, you can do it" by Walt Disney, because it's one that is very inspirational quote. Another one is "There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind" by C.S. Lewis. I like this one because, to me, it represents wanderlust, which is something I've always had. 

3) Think fast: your house is burning down and you can only save one from your shelf. Which one?

Oh...... this is hard question. And, I'm going to be honest. I don't own some of my favorite series, which is weird, but, that just makes it easy. I'd probably take All Fall Down by Ally Carter, just because it was a good book that I really, REALLY enjoyed, and because it's by one of my favorite authors. 

4) Chocolate or sweet/fruity candy?

Chocolate all the way. I'm am a chocolate eating maniac, but the chocolate has to be pure. No almonds, fruits, or anything like that.  

5) Do you have any pets, or want any? (Pictures, please!)

Sadly, I don't have any pets, but I know exactly what type of pet I would want. My dream pets would be a Yorkshire Terrier and West Highland White Terrier. It seems I have a thing for terriers. They look like this:

6) What does your handwriting look like? (Pictures, please!)

The picture above is part of my WIP, which is called Detective Chic. 

7) What do you like do to do in your free time, aside from reading and blogging?

Hmm..... well, you'd probably find me singing, eating or dancing. I love doing all of these things. Other things include gymnastics. I also love watching Boy Meets World, Monk, The Parent Trap, and Harry Potter with my brother cause we just LOVE all of those things. 

                     

8) Do you tell people in real life about your blog? Their reactions?

I've only told a small amount of my friends, and when I do, they usually ask me how I find time for blogging. I have a super duper busy schedule, which is why I always forget about posting, and then rush last minute to post. Anyway, i digress. They are usually shocked, and ask tons of questions about my blog. 

9) What is your main source for books? (Library, bookstore, or Kindle?)

Well, I either get my books from my library, or on overdrive from my kindle, which is my library, just in ebooks. So, my library. Going to the bookstore is kind of a novelty, which is why I don't have such a big book collection. 

10) Guesstimate- how many books do you own? (Unless answering this question would take hours!)

Well.... going with the question before, I have about 16 books, which is not that big of a collection, sadly. 

                  

11) Where do you see yourself in ten years?

Probably fresh out of college, looking for a job, and working on my WIPs in between shifts at wherever I'm working. And, of course, still writing posts on my blog. 

Thank you Emily, for the great questions!! Now, on to mine :)

1. Do you have a good beach memory?

2. If you could meet any character from a book, who would it be and why?

3. Name one quote you live by? Why do you live by it?

4. Have you ever traveled out of the country you live?

5. Think fast: One of your favorite books is completely soaked. How would you dry it?

6. On a weekend, do you workout or not?
