The Versatile Blogger Award!

Hey everyone!
So I logged on to my account today and found out that Grace from Preppy on the West Coast nominated me! Thank you so much Grace, it really means a lot, and for everyone else, you have to check her out! And I'm not just saying this because it's a polite thing to do!
If you are nominated, you've been awarded the Versatile Blogger Award. Thank the person who gave you this award and include a link to their blog.
Answer the fifteen question the nominator left for you. Next, select fifteen blogs/bloggers that you've recently discovered or follow regularly.
Nominate those fifteen bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award with a link to their blog.
Ask those bloggers fifteen questions.
 
Grace's Questions:
1. What's one season you wish could last all year?
Fall! The weather is so nice like 30's-50's so it's chilly, but not freezing like winter. I love the fashion, the trends and so much more!

2. If you could only shop at one store for the rest of your life, what store would you choose?
Hmm... well, probably Target or WalMart. My Target is actually like a 30-40minute car ride away, but I would want to pick a place that had clothes, makeup, books, etc.

3. When in doubt, what nail polish do you paint your nails?
Probably nails inc. magnetic nail polish in whitehall. It is more of a Fall color, but since it does have a magnetic affect, some parts are medium blue, while others are dark blue. Plus I love the quality! I have a review here!

4. What's your go to comfort food?
Chocolate lol. Best food ever!

5. What's one song that perks you up when you're down?
Ok, I'm not joking when I say "Let's Not Play Pretend" from YouTube. Click here to hear it! Idk, call me crazy because it is related to The Hunger Games, but it reminds me of when I first read it and it just makes me soo happy! LOL

6. Do you have a Pinterest?
No!

7. Favorite Starbucks winter drink?
I actually don't go to Starbucks often. My parents prefer Dunkin Doughnuts, and there's one a few minutes away, so I mostly go there. I've only had Starbucks twice! But from those times I do love it and I want to go more! However, from D&D I always get a vanilla bean and coffee coolata mixed!

8. What's on top of your Christmas List this year?
iPhone 4S! Right now I have an LG Ally which I love so much, but I really want an iTouch and since my contract is up this December, I thought it's a good idea to upgrade!

9. What's one thing you can never leave your house without?
My phone! I always bring it with me.

10. Can you tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi?
Yeah, and I prefer Coke... actually I don't know. Coke can give me a stomach ache, I forget if Pepsi can haha.

11. What's your dream career?
Author!! Ugh. That would be great.

12. What's the one food you look forward to the most about the holiday season?
Angel Pie.... Oh my gosh... I'm not sure if it's a family recipe, but it's a meringue pie crust with whip cream and then shaved semi-sweet chocolate on top... yum.

13. Do you ski or snowboard?
I've actually never down either, even though in my state it snows a lot. (It already snowed once, about  two weeks ago!)

14. Ideal place to spend your holiday (i.e. tropical escape or snowy getaway)?
I honestly wouldn't want to spend it anywhere else. :)

15. Favorite holiday movie (i.e. A Charlie Brown Christmas, The Holiday, Love Actually, etc.)?
I actually don't have one. I've seen Elf so many times that I don't love it anymore. And a lot of the holiday movies I've seen are kid ones, like Rudolph and Frosty the Snowman. (Great movies BTW) But I will just say The Hunger Games because I will most likely watch that Christmas break! Obsessed much?
 
My Questions: (Mine are also very Winter/Holiday related!)
1. Favorite Holiday Scent?
2. Did you go Black Friday Shopping?
3. Favorite holiday memory from when you were a child?
4. Last time you were out of your state?
5. Favorite place to go to?
6. Thing you cannot live without during the holiday/winter season? (Ex. Lip Balm, scarves, etc.)
7. Do you go out in the snow (Sled, ski, snowboard, etc)?
8. Fashionable mittens or a cute hat?
9. Favorite holiday drink?
10. Top 3 favorite books?
11. Do you open presents under the Christmas Tree or go to your stocking first?
12. Writing or Reading?
13. If you had to get a wild animal as a pet, what would it be?
14. Do you wear festive clothing for the holidays?
15. Favorite holiday dessert?
 
I nominate:
YOU! I'm not going to tag people individually so you can do this if you want to! :)

The Laine Blogger Award

Hey Everyone!
I wanted to say thank you to Something_Beautiful at Something Beautiful for nominating me for The Laine Blogger Award. Her blog is so pretty and she has really great posts! Also, I wanted to say thank you to anyone that's reading this, especially if you check out my blog regularly. I just hit 500 page views! Thank you so much for that too! I am so grateful for everything! Anyways, let's continue!


The rules are:
~Tag the blogger who awarded you
~Award 5 more bloggers
~Then answer the questions Jasmine added to spice it up!


The 5 Questions:
1. What is your current beauty obsession?
2. What is one beauty item you wished you owned?
3. What kind of posts are your favourite posts to write, and read?
4. What inspired you to become a blogger?
5. What colour nail polish are you wearing right now?


1. My current beauty obsession:
My current beauty obsession is my Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sin. It's a champagne pink color that is so pretty to wear all year, but with the pink undertones, it's especially nice for Spring!


2. One beauty item I wish I own:
One beauty item I wish I own is the original Naked Palette. I have about five Urban Decay products, and I love them all! I have the Naked2 Palette and love that. I guess any UD product in general.

3. My favorite kind of posts to write:
My favorite kind of posts to write are reviews and tags. I haven't done any tags yet, but I've always wanted to. If you guys have any you would like me to do, let me know! I like reviews because it's a good amount of writing (not as short as a thank you, or happy something, but not as long as my May Favorites!). I also think people enjoy those most, and I want to do post you guys like. It takes more time because I like to take the pictures myself, but it's worth it!

4. Inspiration to become a blogger:
My inspiration to become a blogger happened for a few reasons. One I was reading a THG book (The Girl Who Was on Fire-no suprise there) and I really liked the idea of sharing my thoughts on certain topics, kind of how it made you see things in a different way. I also really wanted to share my beauty ideas/tips, stuff like that, to people; whether it was that I make YouTube videos, or make a blog. I decided to make a blog because I didn't want myself completely out there, no matter how much fun it is. (I might give into that eventually though... haha.) Anyways, I really like sharing my ideas with people, and I like typing :P so yeah, one day I did it. And I am glad I did! (Sorry if this is all over the place hehe, I am still so excited!)

5. Current nail polish color:
This is actually, in one of those ways, a not-funny-but-kind-of-ironic-or-a-coincidence type thing. I watch YouTube a lot... probably too much. I have people I will always watch, and am subscribed to, and then I have YouTubers I will occasionally check in on. Well, I occasionally check in on Macbarbie07, and she had a marble nail tutorial (click here to watch) and so I tried that. (It worked, some nails were better than others.) Anyways, to the point, I had to use more than one color. So I used mostly Sephora by OPI nail polishes, "It's Totally Karma", "It's All About Me", "Slushied" (from the Glee Set-no I don't watch Glee.) and an Essie one called "E'nuf is E'nuf". So yeah.
