Rules

3. Write 11 random facts about yourself
4. Answer all 11 questions the nominator asked
5. Nominate 11 more bloggers – this is for upcoming bloggers with 200 followers or less!
6. Come up with 11 new questions for your nominees to answer

Thank You

Thank you very much to Nicole of Just A Belfast Girl for the nomination! Her website is simple to navigate and is full of great reads. You definitely won’t regret taking a look around.

Posting Award On Blog

The award will be in my ‘Blog Posts’ section in the ‘Awards’ category. That might change at some point but for now, that’s where this post will be featured.

11 Random Facts

1. Every time I hear of a movie being based on a true story, I automatically assume critics have given it at least 4 stars and don’t bother with it most of the time
2. I don’t download much music. I’m happy enough with the few artists I listen to
3. I’m more encouraged by a pen & paper than a laptop
4. I find Battle Royale games to be so fucking boring. Main mission w/ side missions all day long!
5. I physically can’t eat lettuce/cabbage. It’s like wet, elastic tissue. It’s disgusting
6. I prefer being out having drinks. I have no problem staying in with my own company either, I just prefer one over the other
7. I don’t wear my glasses as much as I used to. Still get an eye test every year or two though
8. I despise TV Documentaries with every fibre of my being. They’re primarily used for tragedies, so everything always being tragic becomes exhausting to watch and the same 5 pieces of B-Roll footage are used on repeat. It’s all so tedious
9. I purposefully annoy people & lack logic unless things need to be taken seriously. It’s fun. That’s just my humour
10. I enjoy indulging in B-movies. A relaxing piece of mindless action can be good sometimes. Not to the extent of Michael Bay though. That’s too much
11. I’m a co-admin of the Wrestle-Hero Rebelz blog with my friend, Mike (yes, I’ve just used my final random fact as a cheap plug…)

Nicole’s 11 Questions

1. Q: What is your favourite scary movie?

A: ‘Alien’ is truly one of my only answers. Most scary movies are 100% about jump-scares and a lot even fail to be psychologically riveting. Everything that happened with the different stages of the creature in ‘Alien’ is as terrifying as it is mesmirising.

2. Q: If you could time travel, where would you go?

A: I’ve got no interest in history and I’d rather not get stuck in the past if I was unable to travel back to my original time afterwards, so somewhere in the future it is!

3. Q: If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?

A: Super speed. Eobard Thawne may be a psychopathic speedster, but he managed to become a time paradox and insert himself into many different places in the timeline without consequence or permanent death. I can think of a few people I’d enjoy terrorising.

4. Q: Which of your personality traits have gotten you in the most trouble, and why?

A: My unwavering tendency to be a lazy blob. I believe that speaks for itself.

5. Q: What is the most cheesy pick up line you’ve had? Did it work?

A: I honestly can’t think of any cheesy pick-up lines I’ve used, mostly because I’ve never actually said them in person before. Whenever I have, it was on Tinder – none of them memorable. I’ve only ever gotten as far as the first date, so they worked for that.

6. Q: Would you rather burp loudly every time you kiss someone (or something), or drool when you talk?

A: Burp loudly every time I kiss. I won’t be burping loudly very often.

7. Q: If you could ask your pet (or a pet you are close to if you don’t have one) three questions other than,”Do you love me?” What would they be and why?

A: 1. “Do you hate me?” – There’s a dog in the area I live who barks at me every time I look at him. I want answers.

2. “What goes through that head of yours?” – I’m interested in the exact images that go through this dog’s head. Maybe he doesn’t realise I live in the same place.

3. “What’s your biggest fear?” – I’ve seen dogs afraid of cats. I want to know if this is the same case.

8. Q: What movie sequel do you wish you could erase from history and why was it so bad for you?

A: ‘Iron Man 2’. It was just made to introduce new characters. The plot was nothing. I can get that from any B-movie!

9. Q: What is the worst book (not a school book! Nice try, though!) you have ever read and why did you hate it so much?

A: I don’t read enough to be able to answer this one. Ironic. I’m a writer who can count every book he’s ever read in the last 11 years on one hand. I don’t think the few I’ve read deserve to be on a ‘worst book’ list. ‘Eragon’ was fine.

10. Q: What fictional character do you wish you could meet?

A: Thanos. Let’s talk about all those memes!

11. Q: If your life was a soundtrack with 15 – 20 songs what would the songs be and what would you call the album?

A: Such a detailed question. Alright, let’s see:

1. ‘She Hates Me’ – Puddle Of Mudd
2. ‘Complicated’ – Avril Lavigne
3. ‘Photograph’ – Nickelback
4. ‘Dead’ – Phoebe Ryan
5. ‘Stronger’ – Through Fire
6. ‘Watch Me Shine’ – Fozzy
7. ‘Didn’t I’ – Jaira Burns
8. ‘Far Away’ – Nickelback
9. ‘Rock Bottom’ – Hailee Steinfeld
10. ‘Bigger Wow’ – Avril Lavigne
11. ‘Burn Me Out’ – Fozzy
12. ‘Mine’ – Phoebe Ryan
13. ‘Gotta Be Somebody’ – Nickelback
14. ‘Dumb Blonde’ – Avril Lavigne
15. ‘Shine Forever’ – Fozzy

Album Name: ‘Construct of Dalen’
