Blogger 411 - all about ME!

I found this fun link up when I was reading Melissa's blog the other day and I think it's a great way to get to know the writer a bit better. Plus I am seriously lacking time to blog lately, so I am loving link ups!

1. How long have you been blogging? And what got you started on blogging? Has your blog changed?

2. Did you go to college? If so where, and what did you study?

3. Where have you travelled?

4. If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would buy?

5. What are your 3 biggest pet peeves?

6. What is your favorite movie?

7. What is your drink of choice; wine, beer, or liquor. Or Water, Soda, Tea?

8. What is something you enjoy to do when you have me time?

9. If you could have a $10,000 shopping spree to one store, which store would it be?

10. Share with us an embarrassing moment of your past? Or present.

11. What day would you love to relive again?

12. If your life was turned into a movie... what actor would play you?

13. What are the jobs you had in high school/college/the early years?

15. If you could travel anywhere in the world, all expenses paid, where would you go?

16. Show us the most current picture of you or you, or your family, or anything of meaning to you.

17. Where do you see your life 5 years from now?

1. How long have you been blogging? And what got you started on blogging? Has your blog changed?

I have been blogging on and off for a couple of years. My blog is not yet where I want it to be, but I am trying to change that! Writing doesn't come naturally to me, but I want to change that so blogging is the outlet.

2. Did you go to college? If so where, and what did you study?

I am still at 'College' - We just call it University here in Australia. I started a Bachelor of International Studies at University of Canberra which I didn't like so I am not studying via correspondence through Swinburne University of Technology. I am studying a Bachelor of Business and majoring in Economics.

3. Where have you travelled?

I have travelled to Japan (twice), New Zealand, South Pacific and Northern Territory

Lake Tekapo - New Zealand

Japan Vending Machines

Hakuba, Japan

Tokyo - Japan

4. If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would buy?

Hmm, tough one. Maybe a holiday?

5. What are your 3 biggest pet peeves?

- Inconsiderate people

- People smoking while walking (so it blows in everyones face!)

- Bad service

6. What is your favorite movie?

The Duchess. I have watched that movie over and over and I LOVE it.

7. What is your drink of choice; wine, beer, or liquor. Or Water, Soda, Tea?

Hmm, Probably water. Cocktails are a close second!

8. What is something you enjoy to do when you have me time?

Sewing. I need more me time since I haven't sewn since May. I have a dress cut out and ready to go though.

9. If you could have a $10,000 shopping spree to one store, which store would it be?

Well, since we don't have all the awesome shops here that the US do, I would have to say David Jones.

10. Share with us an embarrassing moment of your past? Or present.

A tough one..Probably falling over in High School and my dress going straight up. Our school uniforms had pleats and flew at any given chance...the school got a good look at my underwear that day!

11. What day would you love to relive again?

I'm not married and I don't have children, so I can't use either of those. I'm stuck.. I have had many awesome days but I don't think there are any that I would specifically want to re-live.

12. If your life was turned into a movie... what actor would play you?

I'd love if Anne Hathaway could play me. 

13. What are the jobs you had in high school/college/the early years?

A job at two different cafes from 14 years old to 17 years old. Then I got a job in a Call Centre before I moved to Canberra for Uni.

14. Show us a picture from high school or college.

 Year 12 Formal

Year 11 or 12.

15. If you could travel anywhere in the world, all expenses paid, where would you go?

The US and Europe. I know, that's so vague! I want to see most of the US states and in Europe I want to see the German speaking countries and rent a car and see the country side. Bliss.

16. Show us the most current picture of you or you, or your family, or anything of meaning to you.

We just took that right before I posted this.. Excuse my no-makeup face, I just showered.

Teddy and I on Sunday

17. Where do you see your life 5 years from now?

A good question since S and I were only talking about this last night. Maybe married with at least one child, well travelled, secure and I'd love if we owned our own home.


And there you have it - now you know just a bit more about me!
