The Winter Tag

Hi,

4 days to go!! Another tag for you today. I saw this one over on Reading with Jessica’s blog. She had some great answers so you should check her out. She didn’t tag me but I LOVED this tag so I am doing it anyway.

The Rules:

1. Share 12 random facts about yourself.
2. Answer the 12 questions.

Random Facts:

1. I HATE (I MEAN DISLIKE WITH A STRONG PASSION!!) MELTED CHEESE. I don’t eat lasagna, cheese on toast and pizza and so many more but those are the ones people are most shocked about.
2. I have broken my collarbone by being dropped during a lift in my dance class.
3. I really hated reading until the start of this year (SO many thanks to my best friend Cara who got me to change my mind)
4. I love musicals. From Dear Evan Hansen to good old Les Miserable and so many more – if it has some tunes I will watch it.
5. I also adore Disney – I literally cried when I saw the Disney castle when I visited Paris last year.
6. I have a passion for makeup. I have a massive collection – my pride and joy being the 74 (ish) lipsticks I have displayed in colour order….*REALISES HOW ODD I AM*
7. I play quite a few computer/console games. Some of my faves are Stardew valley, COD BO2, the Sims and Prison Architect.
8. I really want to learn Scots Gaelic (I am Scottish) I know very little so far but I have started.
9. I want to be a published author one day and I have written a complete already novel (Which i am tweaking) and I am hoping to study English and Creative Writing at University next year.
10. I have played many instruments in my years – Trumpet, Tenor Horn, Drum Kit, Piano and I have been a singer throughout it all. I now only play very little piano and sing in the shower (or any other opportunity)
11. I love napping and I literally can nap for hours and hours, wake up for like 5 mins then go back to sleep.
12. I love rollerblading and Ice skating and I do it whenever Scottish weather permits.

My grans special homemade soup that no-one else can make like her. I only get it at Christmas so it’s special. Mince Pies are great too.

How do you like to do your makeup in the Winter?

It depends on the day, my mood, how much time I have and any recent purchases I have made but it doesn’t tend to differ from any other time of year other than the occasional berry lipstick.

I don’t tend to ask for books for Christmas – I mainly get book tokens that I can then go buy stuff with.

Christmas music, snow, celebration sized chocolate bars.

What is your favourite Winter Song?

Either White Christmas by Bing Crosby or Fairytale of New York by The Pogues.

For the film Elf to never be shown ever again. EVER!!
