Liebster Award

I was awarded the Liebster Award by DarkAngelCase over at The Strange Case of a Curious Mind and Sal Kaye over at Still Dark @ Heart. Ha-ha. I needed something to blog about. This came just in time...

So this award is given to upcoming bloggers with less than 200 followers.


Rules for the Liebster Award

  • Answer the questions the tagger has set for you.
  • Create 11 questions for the people you've tagged to answer.
  • Choose 11 people and link them in your post.
  • No tag backs.

11 things about me (in no particular order of importance):

  1. Though I absolutely love to learn, I hate schooling.
  2. I had plans to kill myself. Was thinking something along the lines of drowning after overdosing on sleeping pills.
  3. Music. Is. My. Life. And it has saved my life. If it were a religion, I would be such a devout follower, it's sad.
  4. Up until around two years ago, my dreams (and near-unconscious moments) were plagued with reoccurring shadow people. I only just discovered they were shadow people a week or two ago, after being tormented by these things since I was a child. I call them "My Little Friends"...
  5. Thanks to said shadow people, I have a severe fear of being exposed while sleeping and sleep with a sleep mask.
  6. All of my favorite actors, except one, are male.
  7. I am severely arachnophobic. I have panic attacks, hyperventilate, everything.
  8. Larger than life objects give me a horrible fright. I don't even know how to describe the feeling...*shudders*
  9. As long as I've been writing (since before I could even spell or write words), I've only finished one of my hundreds of stories in my entire life (even counting my short stories and fanfiction).
  10. I want to be the sole owner and manager, and play an active part, in my own business and company in the near future.
  11. All of the people I look up to most in my life are men.

The questions I was asked:

  1. What is your favorite candy?
  2. What book are you currently reading or have just finished?
  3. What was the last movie you saw in the movie theater?
  4. Do you like the Opera?
  5. What is your favorite restaurant?
  6. Do you prefer Autumn or Winter; Spring or Summer?
  7. What is your favorite fruit?
  8. What do you carry around the most?
  9. What is your dream car?
  10. What anime shows do you watch?
  11. Do you have a favorite stuffed animal?

Answers:

  1. I suppose my favorite candy are mint-flavored ones. Can't be mint-anything-else except mint-chocolate. Other than than that, simple ol' mint is my #1.
  2. I'm currently re-reading The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers for the...I-don't-know-what-th-time. 
  3. The last movie I saw in the theaters was The Avengers (2012).
  4. Yes! My mother introduced me to a great lot of Puccini operas (Madam Butterfly, Turandot, La bohème) when I was younger and I've loved them since!
  5. ....I guess I'll have to go with my top three favorites as a tie: Pizza Hut, Captain's Pizza, and Famous. 
  6. Late Autumn, with Winter in second place.
  7. My favorite fruit? I'm a fruit monster. That's a really difficult question to answer. It is. I don't know.
  8. I carry a weapon with me at all times.
  9. My dream car is a black hearse of pending design with a CD and cassette player, airbags, and a sunroof.

  •  ....Uhh...Anyone who hasn't done it? Lots of people have, it seems...I know...I'm breaking the rules... 

...I wish I was asked some questions about the 90s...*sigh* Especially since I've been obsessing over 90s cartoons, if it isn't obvious...

Ah, well. This was fun...

  1. I like Liebster, it's fun to read all these fun facts! ^^ And even if you've done it a couple of times already, it's fun, because you get new questions...^^

    Anyway, Pokémon really sucks dubbed, I've seen some episodes both in English and Hungarian, they were awful...:D
