2019 Q&A: Blogging Dreams, My Perfect Day & How I Relax

Sometimes it’s the really simple posts which you crave to write. And that’s me right now. I can’t be arsed going off on a big ol’ tangent about anything. I can’t be bothered critiquing a book or ranting about the blogging community (I mean… not that there’s anything to rant about because it’s practically perfect in every way). I just wanna sit down and answer some questions. So that’s what I’m doing. Hey-oh.

The last general Q&A I did was back in October (although I did do a Disney themed one which was really fun) and my follower count has grown quite a bit since then so for any newbies, hey! Nice to meet you, here’s some pointless information about me, I hope you enjoy.

In all the years you’ve been blogging, do you have a favourite post that you’ve written? If so, what is it and why is it your favourite?

This is such a difficult question because shortly before writing this post, I just had hit 1,000 posts. So I have ONE THOUSAND posts to choose from. I really liked my post titled Behind the Blogging Mask and I think it’s one of my favourites simply because it 100% came from the heart and I finally expressed everything I was feeling about that particular topic. It was freeing to get it all written down! However, I have deleted that post since writing this.

What are you looking forward to the most this year?

I’m looking forward to heading back to Brands Hatch in August to watch the DTM the most, so far. As it’s been a bit of a rocky beginning of the year, at the time of writing this, I don’t have an awful lot planned but I’m sure there will be other stuff coming up soon.

What is your favourite thing about Winter?

Everything. I adore Winter – it’s my favourite season. I think my favourite thing is simply the cold.

If you could do any job in the world, regardless of qualification etc, what would it be?

This is a really tough one because there’s so much to choose from if qualifications etc are no object. If I’m looking on the slightly more realistic side, I’d probably just love to own and run my own book shop but if I’m really pushing the boat out, probably a Formula 1 engineer or strategist.

What’s your biggest blogging dream?

Probably to work with Disney! Oh it would be the biggest dream! But really, it’s just to make a steady and solid full-time income from my blog and my own resources. I’m over halfway there so I guess this is a dream that could be a reality if I keep working hard!

What does your perfect day look like?

My perfect day would start by waking up early in a cottage somewhere in the countryside, where there’s no-one else around and all you can hear are the bird and maybe some other animals. Having breakfast then getting ready to go out somewhere for the day – probably the zoo – coming back, getting a takeaway and watching something binge-worthy on Netflix. I’m a simple gal.

If you started your blog again, from the beginning, what would your very first post be about?

My first post was a book review of The Perks of Being a Wallflower because I was a book blogger when I started but if I started again, I definitely wouldn’t be a book blogger so I’d probably do a simple Q&A or something to introduce people to me and my blog!

If you could reread only one series over and over again what series would it be?

Okay I’m going to cheat a little bit here because I don’t really read series (I bet you thought I was going to say Harry Potter) so I’m just going to choose a book in general so if I could only reread one book over and over again, it’d probably be The Age of Miracles by Karen Thomson-Walker.

What do you do to relax?

Nothing. I don’t relax. Ever. Kidding but I do find it really hard to relax. But mostly, I like to play video games. They’re a really good way for me to completely switch off from real life that nothing else seems to allow me to do. I love The Sims but at the moment I’ve been totally engrossed in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Where is your favourite place?

Disneyland Paris. My favourite place on Earth!
