Award

Last week Alex tagged me in this award so here's my responses :)

1. Why do your blog?
I blog as it's a great way to share thoughts and experiences.  Reading blogs gives me so much inspiration and there are some really amazing people out there :)  I just feel I should give something back, it may not be much but this is me and nothing but! :)


2. Name your 3 best memories:
This one is hard!
-The first that comes to mind is my first night in Krakow.  I was travelling alone and I'd only just started out on my journey.  I wasn't scared to be on my own I was so excited to explore this beautiful city I'd landed in.  I couldn't wait for the month of adventures that would unfold moment to moment.  No real plan, no real direction, just me, a few European cities and the experiences I would have within them.  It was the greatest feeling of freedom I've ever had and I was in such a beautiful city!
- I cant pick just one to be the best, but wigilia (pronounced viˈɡilja) when I was little (up to the age of 10) was always a wonderful day.  Babcia always spends such a long time preparing the meal, which when I was younger felt like 15courses!  It's only about 5 or 6 I think but it's so amazing :)  We got to open a present from under the tree.  It was just nice having all the family gathered together on a cold winter night having a fun merry time :)
- The many many unsober fun amazing nights with so many of my friends and the crazy random laughs we always end up having!

3. Five best fictional books you have read.
Captain corelli's mandolin
Life of pi
A brave new world
A scanner darkly
The five people you meet in heaven


4. 5 Best movies ever made.
 Waking Life
The fountain
My neighbour totoro
The lost boys
American beauty

5. Name 5 things you cant live without.
Good food
The internet
Friends and family
Science
A good cup of tea :)

6. If you could change your name what would you change it to.
I love my name I definitely wouldn't change it :)


7. Tell us a unique fact about yourself.
 I have never had a real job!  I find it quite embarrassing at the the age of 22 but have been at uni and I'm now doing teacher training and I couldn't love it more.
8. What do you love most about yourself?
My scientific way of thinking.  Give me a problem and I'll find you a solution.  It's so awesome but sometimes rather irritating as it can be that I get a problem that I love so much I have to find the solution before I can get on with anything else!


9. If you had a freaky Friday experience who would you change places with?
hmmmmm most of you may think that this is really lame, but one of the highly respected science teachers in the school.  Just so I can have that feeling and do the lesson so well as there is so much paper work with each lesson it's quite annoying at the moment but I see the light at the end of the tunnel :)

10. Whats the best thing about being a women?
Ok I shall have to pick something superficial as I really cant think of anything but we do have a better choice of clothes and we can just steal the boyfriends if needs be but it's a little weird if it's the other way round!

I now pass this onto:

Fab answers - I love this sort of post!

I've had a rummage through my vintage fair flyers and they're on:

First Thursday of the month at The Shipping Forecast on Slater Street, 5pm till late

Second Sunday of the month at Baby Blue, Albert Dock, 11am-5pm

Last Sunday of the month at Leaf Tea Bar on Parliament St, 11am to 5pm

I'm pretty sure there are others up near Lark Lane but the Shipping Forecast one is lovely and I imagine the other two (all 3 are organised by the same company) are just as good.

I like your "can't live without" list - I think I'd struggle without any one of those, too :)

I always love reading these tags, this one especially. Having a scientific enquiring mind will get you far, I'm sure, and not having had a 'proper' job yet is quite a wonderful luxury. I'm SO with you on the can't live without 'tea' and the 'internet'. xo
