Camille's Questions:

What do you love most about blogging?
I love connecting with people who are going through the same thing as me
I also love that no matter who you are or what issues you have you are accepted here
Writing is the only way I can truly express myself

Name 2 of your bad habits?
Smoking, I hate that I'm a smoker and I hope to give up soon
Biting my nails, I bite them when I am anxious or nervous

What kind of music do you listen to?
I love all types of music from heavy metal to classical
At the moment I'm listening to a lot of Lana Del Rey and Bat for Lashes
The type of music I listen to depends on my mood

What does your perfect day look like?
My perfect day starts off with a cup of tea and a cigarette
Then I'll blog before rounding up my dogs and going for an early morning walk
I listen to phone in shows on the radio as I walk
I'd go to the local market to get something for lunch and the rest of the day would be spent relaxing with family and friends

I rarely allow myself to eat it though

I'd love to be a unicorn ( I know they don't exist but I've always been fascinated by them)

I believe that everything happens for a reason. It comforts me to know that even if something bad happens, there is a good reason as to why it happened that way

What is your favourite letter of the alphabet?
S, I love the way it sounds

If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?
Definitely New York, the city that never sleeps

  6. Ooooohhhhhhh I love it when people do these and give little tidbits about themselves :3

    Your colour prefernces are going in my 'favourite colours reference file' in the back of my inspiration book. It saves me from asking people over and over and over agan. (Chronic sleep deprivation=shit memory)

    I'm a nail biter too! I don't bite on days I work because of all the gross shit I get under them. (Chicken fat, cleaning products, ham fat, liquified luncheon meat, bits of stickers and lables, ink, hand sanitiser) but if I don't have nailpolish on when I'm not working they're ragged stumps from nerves within an hour. At least with polish on I just pick. Still gross, but yeah.

    I hope you have a good day today. Tons of love from the Land of the Long White Cloud <3

    1. I love it too Peri, I love finding out random pieces of information about people

      By the way the only reason I didn't nominate you is that I could only nominate people with under 200 followers

      Only 2 more days to go Peri, can you believe your nearly finished?

      Love you x

  9. Cool! Congratulations on your nomination Ruby, fair play to ya! And thank you for nominating me :)

    Ha, I'd love to be an unicorn too! Infact, I think certain people are like unicorns - special people who come along in your life and inspire you - of which I've met a few! Hope you do too!

    And Lana Del Ray is brilliant! I've just started a new blog where I post some of my favourite music, as music is such a big part of my life - www.musictoliveandfeelby.blogspot.com if you fancy a look!

    Hope you are still writing away! :)
