Updated Leibster Award! <3

Eeek! This is the third time I have been nominated for the Leibster Award! This time around it was by the LOVELY Imogen at Little Awkward Fox, I absolutely love reading her gorgeous blog (and I know you will too, so go give it a look!)

For those of you who are knew to the whole Leibster Shabister, here are the rules:

1. Display the Liebster Award logo on your blog
2. Thank and link back to the person who has nominated you
3. List 11 facts about yourself
4. Answer the 11 questions they have posted
5. Create 11 questions to ask
6. Choose your own nominations

The 11 facts:

1. I still build things with LEGO.

2. I got my first lipstick aged 6, I swapped my friend a Beanie Baby for it. The lipstick was from a Top of the Pops magazine, silver and glittery.

3. I panic about the silliest of things, but I'm usually pretty calm if the shit hits the fan (Go figure...)

4. I liked cars, LEGO, trains and basically 'boys' toys as a kid, but I did have a special Barbie Anastacia who I still have somewhere. I think I ventured into the realm of Betty Spaghetty too, but somehow never got on with Barbies.

5. I've been writing a 'book' since I was 15. It's turned into 5 and I keep switching between stories, all slightly incomplete. I hope they make sense once day.

6. I hate mint. Toothpaste is the bane of my life.

7. I once touched Captain Maggots bum at a concert. Still haven't washed that hand. *mad laugh*

8. I love World of Warcraft, The Sims(2,3...) and Clash of Clans a little tooooo much.

9. The only school play I've ever played a 'main part' in I sat all the way through picking my nose. I was 4, but even so, I never got a main part again!!!

10. I hate the feeling of wet hair, it makes me feel sick. I usually keep it in a towel too long and then end up with an epic fail quiff.

11. I jumped off the third deck of a boat in Greece and back flopped the sea (one of the most painful experiences ever, I thought I'd broken my neck as I went numb all over). Everyone clapped and thought it was great... I'm now admitting I wasn't being 'cool' I merely stood on the railing to 'judge the situation' and fell. Ah well. B-)

Questions:

1. What do you like to blog about? Probably a little bit of everything. I was very hard in the start to 'stick to a theme' as such. I've managed to keep it beauty themed somehow, although I occasionally get sidetracked and blog other things!

2. What’s the story behind your blog? I got sick and tired of being the clumsy, non-girly girl. I started a job in a warehouse and felt smothered by the atmosphere, I couldn't be me, even on my days off I, so it was like an 'up yours' to that part of my life haha. I've always liked make-up and being creative with it,I've just hidden behind other things.

3. Where are you from? Born 'n' bred in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, UK. I lived in a village called Clipstone which is next door to Sherwood Forest, which is in NOTTINGHAMSHIRE not Nottingham... Just for the record. ;-)

4. What’s your No 1 place to visit? I don't know. I like being by the sea, I'm not really a specific place person, usually I'll go anywhere so long as I'm with people I like. :-)

5. Who inspires you? Again, I have no idea. There are so many, and it depends on my mood as to who I 'go to', although I am obsessed with Helena Bonham Carter, her style, attitude, argh she is amazing. Keith Lemon, for being an offensive and overly daring person and getting away with it. Zoella, for letting me cry over her anxiety vidoes on more than one occasion. Brian Blessed for just being an all over legend... and Jamie Oliver, for adding cheese to everything, my kind of man!

6. What is the one goal you are working towards? World domination, mainly. Ha. If I could be the next J.K. Rowling/ Terry Pratchett Hybrid I would be pretty happy, realistically, I'll just go with a job I like, money to blow and a Mini Cooper.

7. What is your dream bag? Hermione's beaded bag in Harry Potter, the one that fits everything in it. Although saying that, I'd lose my car keys more and that lipstick would be rolling around in the bottom for the rest of eternity.

8. What is your all time favourite book? I've read all of the Edgeworld Chronicles, I think my favourite is The Curse of the Gloamglozer. Apparently I liked Steampunk before I knew it had an official name. *fistpump* so proud of my 11 year old self.

9. Can you speak more than one language? Nope. C'est la Vie! Is all I can manage really.

10. What is currently your favourite song? Lee Brice, 'I don't dance'. But only if I'm in a bla mood. It's my equivalent of a Rom Com. Usually I can listen to most things. SIA, 'Chandelier' has been replayed more times than is healthy this month, for example.

11.  If you could meet anyone in the world who would it be? I have this fear, that if I want to meet someone really badly, they'll either think I'm a crack pot and hate me, or they'll turn out to be jerks and then I wont like them anymore. :-( So I don't know really...
