Some Questions From ChapterandCircle

Rhiân from Chapter and Circle nominated me for the Liebster award (check out her post here). Seeing as I've already done a post on the Liebster award, I thought I would just answer her questions in a post as I thought they were really interesting!

1. What is your favourite book of all time?

I have lots! To Kill a Mockingbird, Perks of Being a Wallflower, Anne Frank's diary, or The Fault In Our Stars. When I was growing up it was Blind Beauty, so that book also has a special place in my heart.

2. What would your perfect outfit look like?

It would be a gorgeous blue dress, pretty heels, with some white gold jewellery and diamonds!

..Well in my dreams!

3. What would your perfect day look like?

Spending it with my boyfriend doing something lovely, spending it at the beach or (ideally) at Disney!

4. Tell me something ‘weird’ about yourself?

I have really vivid dreams, especially recently I've been having really vivid dreams that I've been able to remember for a few days after. Some that I've had recently include me being in North Korea, one where I had a dog that was asleep all the time, and one where I was having a chat with Russell Brand. I've no idea why I dreamt about any of those things!

5. What is your best memory of 2015 so far?

Going to the beach with my boyfriend last week when he came to stay with me. It was absolutely amazing and I had the best day. I'm planning on doing a post with some pictures I took over Easter break which I'll link when I put it up!

6. If you were to plan a day out for us both, what would we do?

We'd probably go makeup shopping (I love makeup, and haven't been for so long!) and then go to have lunch at a nice restaurant, and then in the afternoon maybe bake & watch films or TV!

7. What do you do for a job?

I'm currently a full time student, which takes up most of my time. I'm looking to get a job as we move into the summer though, so fingers crossed it works out!!

8. What is your favourite hobby?

Blogging and photography for sure! When I'm not taking photos of my dog or my garden or my friends, I'm writing blog posts in my head & planning all of my future posts!

9. What is something you’re proud of?

I'm proud of getting into my first choice university, I couldn't see myself anywhere else when I first set foot on the campus and I'm so proud I finally got there. It took a lot of tears and hard work but I made it!

10. What is one rule that you live by?

Since watching Cinderella at the cinema (I wrote a review here), I've lived by the motto have courage and be kind. It's a really nice reminder!

11. What do you want to accomplish in 2015?

I wrote a post on my 2015 goals which is here if you'd like to read! I'd like to get a job, get a first in my first year of uni, and save lots of money in the summer through having my job. I want to contine eating healthier and getting fit. I'd like my blog to grow, and for me to become friends with other bloggers.

And that's it from me, just a little bonus post because I liked the questions! Thanks so much Rhiân for tagging me, and go check her out if you haven't already!

Speak to you on Saturday!

The Disney Tag!

I saw Katy @ The Lilac Scrapbook do this post, so I thought I'd give it a go as if you haven't guessed by now I'm absolutely obsessed with Disney!!!

Favourite Disney character

This is so hard! There's so many amazing characters, so I have lots! I love Minnie Mouse, Rapunzel, Merida just to name a few.

Favourite Disney movie
Tangled has to be my favourite! Although I recently watched Big Hero 6 and loved that too!

Favourite Disney scene
The paper lantern scene. It has to be, hasn't it?

Favourite Disney memory
I have so many, but me being part of the Lion King show in Walt Disney World has to be up there! Every time I've been to Disney World I've been part of a show.

Favourite Disney song
I once danced a solo to Tale As Old As Time in a ballet performance, so that's got to be one of my favourites. I also love I See The Light from Tangled (Carrie and Pete did the BEST cover of this it makes me cry!). Looking through the Tangled soundtrack I love them all, Kingdom Dance and When Will My Life Begin are also so so so good!

What is your go to Disney movie?

Has to be Tangled. Not sure if you've noticed by now I quite like it..

First trip to a Disney park
My first ever trip was to Disney Land Paris when I was about 6. It was over Halloween so it was decorated amazingly & there were all the Halloween parades (I got scared watching one of the parades because the Queen of Hearts grabbed my hand as if she was going to take me away!! Haha). I also remember crying my eyes out because I didn't want to go on the Peter Pan ride (which is now one of my favourites!)

Favourite Disney park and ride

Has to be Magic Kingdom! And I have so many rides that I love, from Big Thunder Mountain Railroad to Winnie the Pooh, I love it all!

Most emotional Disney moment

In the film - Got to be the first few minutes of UP. Or the ending of Big Hero 6.

At the parks - watching the Fireworks for sure

If you could pick any Disney character to be your best friend, who would it be?

Olaf, he's just so happy! He'd always cheer me up & give me hugs :)

That's it from me! I'd love to see your responses to these questions too! I'd especially like to see Molly Rose do these questions on her blog as I know she loves Disney nearly as much as me! :P

Can you tell I love Minnie? I have another one but I can't find her!! :( And the Winnie the Pooh was a Christmas present from my boyfriend :)

The autographs I got while at Disney World for the first time!

Thanks,

The Me Time Tag

Thanks so much to Molly Rose for tagging me in another tag, I loved reading about her 'me time' so definitely check it out here.

What do you watch/read during 'Me Time'? I usually watch youtube videos when I'm having some me time, although I've been loving trashy TV like Take Me Out at the moment too. The last book I read was Attachments by Rainbow Rowell, however I don't have loads of time to read at uni! Mostly I listen to music when I'm having some time to myself, which is exactly what I'm doing now!
What do you wear during 'Me Time'? I usually wear leggings and a top or loose knitted jumper, although sometimes I just wear pyjamas.
What are your 'Me Time' beauty products? I usually have mascara and eyeliner, although if I'm properly relaxing I'll give my face a complete break and not wear any makeup. I will treat my skin with my skincare routine, which can be found here
Favourite current nail polish? My current nail polish is Sally Hansen nail polish in Rosie Posie, which is a lovely dusky pink colour. It's been on my nails for three weeks now, with no chips! I'm so in love, I bought this polish years ago and have gone through many feelings of loving and disliking the colour, but currently I love it. It's the only Sally Hansen nail polish I own but I definitely need some more shades! *hint hint Sally Hansen!!* haha just kidding.
What do you eat/drink in your 'Me Time'? Anything chocolaty! Or cereal. And I love a good cup of tea in my me time routine.
Current favourite candle? I'm not allowed to burn candles at uni so I don't have a current favourite!
Do you ever have outdoor 'Me Time'? Often if I've spent a lot of time inside it makes me go crazy & I feel really stifled and trapped, so I love nothing more than to go outside for a walk. I was really stressed out last week so I dragged my bf around campus to take some photos and to make the most of the gorgeous sunshine we've been having. It's so nice to just get out and clear my head, and to have a change of scenery.
Would you ever go see a movie alone? I'm not sure if I would, I always like to react about the movie to the people I've gone with, and I think I'd feel a bit lonely in the cinema alone (side note this is such a random question) :P
Favourite online shop? I don't tend to do lots of online shopping, however I'm notorious for putting lots of things into my basket and then never actually buying anything. I rarely order things online, especially clothes, as I like to try them on and make sure they actually fit. However I love looking at the new look website to get outfit inspiration!
Anything else to add? Don't think so haha

And that's it! I'm going to tag Lizzie at Peppermint and Panda Eyes and Anna at Little World of Anna

Thanks for reading, I really appreciate all your support :)

Love,
Zoe xxx
