Tell Me About You // Questions for Readers

tell me about you, questions, get to know you, readers, blogs, blogging
Hi! I'm back from my nice, long weekend. It is probably bad that it is late Tuesday night and I am still calling it my weekend... But is there really a difference for me right now? Anyway, I unexpectedly unplugged from blogging and most social media over the holiday weekend, and it felt wonderful. I feel renewed and ready to tackle the rest of this week with great posts (as well as job searching...) and preparing for our upcoming weekend away.

This holiday weekend was great. We got to spend time with family and friends, laugh, eat great food, and simply relax. Not to mention binge watching the entire 12th season of Project Runway (except for the final episode, so don't spoil it for me!)... After the 4th of July, we spent Saturday casually wandering around town, walking through the mall with our Starbucks fix, getting some Japanese bento to have a late lunch in the park, and finishing off the evening with a swim. Really just a lovely summer day! Sunday, we headed down to a water park that we have season passes for (it was only $4 extra for a season pass, so we figured why not!) and spent a few hours in the sun there, people watching and working on our tans. I was passed out on the couch by 8pm. It was quite fantastic!

Now that I've filled you in on my recent life happenings, on to the (other) fun stuff! Today I wanted to ask you, my readers, some things about yourselves! Remember when I posted that Q&A video? Well, now the tables have sort of turned and I'd like to learn more about you all now!

So, tell me...
+ What is your favorite TV show (past and/or present!)
+ Who is your biggest role model?
+ If you could be best friends with any celebrity, who would it be?
+ What is your preferred season?
+ If you have a blog, why did you decide to start it? If you enjoy just reading blogs, what draws you to them?
+ How do you like your coffee or tea? Iced? With cream and sugar?
+ What is your favorite item to shop for?

+ Do you prefer to stay home or go out?
+ What is your dessert of choice?
+ What is your life motto?

I am really excited to see what you all have to say! It will be great to learn more about you :)

Be sure to answer any and all questions you would like in the comments below!

I haven't seen House of Cards, but I've heard great things about it. Shoes are totally fun to shop for! Ice cream is my favorite too and I love that motto :) Thanks for sharing!

Jess said...

Aubrey Plaza would totally make an awesome bestie. Great pick! It is definitely fun to shop for dresses and for home things, and I am a chocolate lover too! Thanks for sharing, Emorie :)

Jess said...

OITNB is one of my favorite shows too! I love Amy Tans books also, but don't really know anything about her as a person. I will have to take a look at her FB page now though! That back to school spirit gets me every year haha. It is very cool that you have had other blogs besides your current one! Special occasion dresses are amazing to shop for. I love any excuse for a new dress! Thanks for sharing with me :)

How fun!

+ Favorite TV show: Doctor Who for sure! ^_^
+ Role model: Mom :)
+ Favorite Season: It's hot 365 days a year in Puerto Rico and in Okinawa at least we get 60-ish degree weather in the winter! I've never lived anywhere where you can experience the 4 seasons, but i think Fall is my favorite. Atleast the idea of it, lol!
+ What draws me to blogs: Pretty themes, nice big pictures, fun blogposts.
+ How do you like your coffee or tea? I don't drink that much of either, but i do like iced/blended coffees and iced teas :)
+ Favorite item to shop for? Bottoms + Dresses! I literally have to force myself to buy tops! :'D
+ Stay home or go out? Stay Home for sure!
+ Dessert of choice?
+ Life motto? I'm not sure i particularly have one but I think "Grow where you are planted" is an amazing motto to live by.

Jess said...

I've never seen Doctor Who, but I hear about it all the time, so I should try it out! Haha yeah I guess you wouldn't really know all 4 seasons... Fall is a good choice though :) Love my coffee and tea iced too! And that is a great motto :)

Jess said...

Ah I love this post so much! Do you mind if I borrowed your idea, sited you, but did something similar with my followers in the future?

+ What is your favorite TV show (past and/or present!)
So hard! Mad Men and The Office for both drama and comedy
+ Who is your biggest role model?
my sister! She's 8 years older then me so I can always look to see how she's tackled the hard things in life gracefully and follow suit
+ If you could be best friends with any celebrity, who would it be?
Kat Dennings!
+ What is your preferred season?
Fall! (so much beauty in nature, my birthday, Halloween, and the perfect weather)
+ If you have a blog, why did you decide to start it? If you enjoy just reading blogs, what draws you to them?
I decided to start one when I saw the great community of girls that have them. I really enjoyed consistently following about 6 blogs before I started mine and found more as I started blogging. I also wanted a place to document my life for myself as well as keep recipes in one place that Ive tried, also to post my outfits!
+ How do you like your coffee or tea? Iced? With cream and sugar?
I like my coffee, iced, vanilla flavor, and extra sugar and cream!
+ What is your favorite item to shop for?
Dresses.
+ Do you prefer to stay home or go out?
It depends on my mood. I would say Im way more of an introvert so usually stay in, but once a week going out for some sort of adventure is nice.
+ What is your dessert of choice?
Red Velvet anything
+ What is your life motto?
I may not have gone where I intended to go but I think I have ended up where I needed to be

Go for it! I totally don't mind! It is great to get to know readers :)


I haven't watched either of those shows (except for just a couple episodes of The Office), but I have heard so much. That's awesome that your sister is your role model! My sister is mine too :) She is 18-years-older than me though! Kat Dennings is hilarious and fall is just so nice once it comes around. Yummy, your coffee sounds just the way I like it! I mostly always go for iced! Love your motto too :)
