Welcome Back + awards + 100 followers

I’m back from my disappearance on the blogosphere this past month and a half. At the beginning of July my computer, unfortunately, broke down and it has been a crazy process trying to get it fixed. My computer is still not fixed(though it should be very soon) so, I am currently working on this old laptop that was lent to us. This is my second time writing this post(because this laptop hates me and decided to delete all my work) so, I’m sorry if it seems like I’m not happy to be back blogging (because I’m ecstatic), it’s just tiring writing an entire post from scratch after having already written a good one. I’ve reached my quota for complaining so let’s get into some awards…. 😉 😉

The rules

  • Thank the blogger who nominated you and link back to their blog.

I want to thank I Blog A Little Bit Of Everything for nominating me for this AMAZING award! Her blog is great and I insist that you all check it out because it’s really a little bit of everything;)

  • Answer the 11 questions given to you.

1.Would you rather only be able to read blog posts or write blog posts?
I honestly can’t choose. Reading has defined who I am for such a long time but on the flip side, I love writing blog posts where I can share my thoughts and endlessly ramble.

  1. What is your favourite hairstyle?
    Well the hairstyle I wear most often are buns(yep, I’m a total bunhead) but I love my hair out and curly which; is not really a hairstyle but I’m gonna roll with it.
  2. What is your favourite season?
    Autumn. My birthday, sweater weather and hot apple cider!!
  3. Do you use paper for your notes/lists/other things or do you use digital methods?
    Both!
  4. What is your favourite blog to read?
    I read too many great blogs to choose just one but, I love lifestyle, poetry and book blogs the most;)
  5. Do you prefer sweet or savoury snacks?
    Savory
  6. What is your favourite snack food?
    Hummus and carrots and cheese boards.
  7. If you could only drink one beverage for the rest of your life, what would it be?
    Water. It’s basic but, it’s good and a necessity.
  8. What is your favourite blog post idea that you never ended up writing?
    I can’t say because I might still write it… 😉 Never say never…
  9. Do you like board games? If so, what is your favourite?
    Of course! For me, it’s between chess and A Ticket To Ride. Monopoly and Scrabble are some other good ones.
  10. What is one random thing that makes you happy?
    People smiling and dogs wagging their tails!
  • Nominate 11 other bloggers and write them 11 new questions.
  1. Three most used emojis
  2. What is your favorite snack food? (Love this question)
  3. Last song you listened to
  4. Scary or sad movie?
  5. How long does it take you to write a blog post? ( It takes me forever so, I want to see where everyone else stands)
  6. Least and most favorite part about blogging?
  7. Describe your perfect day 
  8. A movie that moved you the most?
  9. If you could have any guest (living or dead)to interview on your blog who would it be?
  10. Favorite GIF
  11. How are you feeling today? (describe or rate it on a scale from one to ten)

  • List the rules and display The Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your blog post.(Nailed it!)

  1. Thank the person who nominated you and add a link to their blog in your post

Both Musings of a MaeFlower and From a stranger to you nominated me and they are the sweetest and, both of their blogs are some of my all-time favorites ;)!!!!

  1. Answer the given questions
  1. Rain or sun?

If I have plans for the day than the sun but if not, rain all the way. 

2. What do you love most about blogging?

I love being able to share my thoughts ,views, and opinions while; always getting such positive feedback(you guys are the best). Blogging is such a great outlet for my rants and to practice what I love doing, writing!

3. If you could fix one mistake you made in the past, what would it be?

I’ve made plenty of mistakes in my past but, I can’t think of one I’d like to change. I believe that our mistakes help us learn and grow to become better. It’s a positive way of looking at mistakes and helps remind me that “to err is human”.

4. What is one of your fav things to do with your best friend?

Visit a bookstore and spend hours searching and reading books. I do this alone for the most part or with my sister who shares my love for reading.

5.Hot air ballooning or sky diving?

Gosh, both sound terrifying to me. Probably hot air balloon by default of being less scary than the latter.

6. What is your fav emoji?

Laughing Crying 

7. How long have you been blogging?

8 months, give or take 

8.What is the last food you ate yesterday?

Chocolate tart! 😉

9.Do you watch marvel, and if so, who is your favorite villain?

Killmonger from Black Panther. He’s an interesting character because he wasn’t inherently evil. His tough circumstances made him the person he was and he did make some valid points. I watched Black Panther a few days ago, so he’s the villain the freshest in my mind.

10. What book do you love/hate the most?

Okay, I’m one hundred percent overthinking this question but I don’t quite understand the question. Is it a book I either hate or love or, is it a book I love and hate. I’m going with option two because its interesting so, the book I have a love/hate relationship with is The Great Gatsby. While it is one of my favorite books but, I still have a weird relationship with it because of Daisy and Tom Buchanan. Enough said!(Maybe I’ll write about post about this on a later date…)

11. Would you rather go back in time, or go to the future?

Back to the future! Hahaha,I was just making an 80s reference but my actual answer is back in time.   

3. Nominate 2-6(I did 7 but, shh I’m not counting) blogs that you think would enjoy this award and notify them


SMELLFOY CAN READ?

The Writer of Letters

Avocado Thoughts

afctlblog.wordpress.com

Meghan’s Teen Life

4.You may/may not create 11 new questions for your nominees(I’ll keep the questions and you can answer question 10 either way you want 😉 )

Before this post gets outrageously long I want to say I reached a 100 FOLLOWERS BACK IN JUNE!!!!! ( does a dance in a seat) 😉

I wouldn’t have been able to do this without each and every one of you. Your support and the fact that you enjoy reading my blog means the world to me!! A little shoutout to my sister who was my very first subscriber and continues to support and motivate me(love you)! So happy to be back and can’t wait to get back into the swing of things. I’m going to set Mondays as my posting days to stay organized but, from time to time I will also post sporadically during the week.

Keep being amazing and hope your all staying safe! How were all your summers?

I like to consider myself a Virgo/Libra as my birthday is on the cusp of the cutoff date so, I have qualities of both signs.I'm also a teenage girl who has never outgrown the color pink and will randomly quote from books and movies. I hate doors that open(it's so random but, it irks me) and I love traveling though, I don't do it as often as I would like to. I'm a hopeless romantic who will watch just about any romance movie. I'm also a total bookworm and when I'm not reading or thinking of reading I'm, spending time with my family or being an amateur baker and tennis player. Every day, I also strive to be a better person and to help the world out because "I must do better"(already I'm quoting).

      Hahaha, I don’t know about giving good advice yet but thx! Yess, get on reading! Every time you drop by I’ll start hounding you on what you’ve read 😂

      1. Ahh sis. I’m currently reading My Sister Rosa. let me know if you heard of it haha I appreciate the encouragement!! Ahh you too! ❤ They keep changing ours to 4 courses to 2 to now one course a semester. They're doing the weirdest things to make in school work but it's definitely a crazy time. I'm always happy to hear from you too! ❤ Post soon – I'll be back to stalk 😉 😂

      2. So I quickly looked up My Sister Rosa( because I hadn’t heard of it ) and wow, sounds a bit terrifying and suspenseful( in a good way though). Now I’m very intrigued, keep me posted on how it goes 👍
        It is a crazy time and I think every school doesn’t really know what to do but, I hope your school decides on something.😂
        Can’t wait to see you back you stalker, hehe ❤️ Always a pleasure to see you 🙂

    1. Your welcome, it was my pleasure to nominate you! Thank you and hmmm, idk about WordPress! It’s acting up but, I’m gonna try to look over my website tmr!
      Thank you so much for your support 💖

  4. Awwww, thank you so much for the tag! I can’t wait to get started on your questions!

    I actually have to tip my hat off to you – I always plan to drink more water. Does it ever happen though? Not really. But, you just inspired me! *Actually drinking a glass as I type this!*.

    Also – carrots and cheese boards??? You are seriously putting me and my unhealthy ways to shame! 😅

    AND I’m 100% with you on the hot air ballooning. There’s no way you’d ever get me to sky dive [although there is a part of me that wishes I’d have the guts to take that leap].

    Great post, Lucy and a HUGE congratulations on your first 100 subscribers! Trust me when I say that the first 100 are the hardest – it’s all uphill from here on out! 💙💙💙

    1. Don’t pin be out to be a healthy eater just yet😂 I still eat my fair share of ice cream but, hummus and cheese are two foods I’m literally addicted to!! Hahaha, nice job drinking water. It’s not so much that I drink water all the time( I honestly should do it more) but, it’s also the only drink I have every day.:)
      Finally someone who doesn’t have a death wish ( like me). Sky diving sounds crazzzy but, I do admire those who can find the courage to do that. But that’s still a big no no for me!
      THANK YOU!! It’s been such a great journey so far❤️💖😊

  8. I am a total bum head too! More than ever lately, ever since I bought a bun maker too it’s taken them to whole new levels 😂 Honestly it’s one of the only hairstyles that involve putting my hair up that actually suit me 😅 I just can’t stand hair in my face all the time! 🤭 I loved your answers so much and reading or writing on the blogosphere that is so tricky… and oh my gosh you had to completely rewrite your post! That is awful, it’s happened to me before and I had already spent so long formatting 😭 Wonderful post! 🙂 Congrats on 100, you deserve them ☺️ Also I hope you get your laptop fixed soon!

    1. I know, right!! I feel like I need to wear buns when I’m doing school work or other work because if my hair is down, I will get distracted so much 😂😂
      I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one who has to gone through re-writing posts but I’m sorry it happened it to you nonetheless.😫 It’s honestly a pain and yess formatting as well!
      Awww, thank you so much for reading and I’m so happy that you’ve come on my blogging journey with me💖

      1. Yes exactly!! For some reason when I’m wearing a bun I just feel more productive too? I’m a weirdo like that 😂
        Yes it is a total nightmare, you kind of want to throw your laptop at the wall and scream at someone but there’s also the same part of you that’s like ‘just re-write the post’ 🤭 Of course Lucy!! Omg 🥺🥺 You’re so sweet!! Right back at you… there was something missing when you were on break!
