So, without further ado, thank you so much Will for nominating me for the Liebster Award! It's a grand ole honour and as I do enjoy reading your posts, it's great to find out that someone thinks something at all, let alone something as awesome as this, about my blog :D

Now for the ten questions Will has set for me to answer :D

1. What is your favourite food?

I would have to say, without a shadow of a doubt, pasta. It's a favourite of many but I have to say that it's probably the one food that I could eat whenever and whoever made it for me, it never fails to make me happy :D

2. If you won the lottery and could only keep the money for a week, what would you do with it?

Quite honestly, I think I would try and make as many people happy as possible, whether that be by giving money to charity or buying the people close to me a wonderful gift and just watching them become all happy and delighted by it, I think that would be the best thing ever :D

3. Who is your favourite YouTuber?

One word Will; Why? ;)

One thing you should know about me is the fact I admire a lot of youtubers and I'm quite obsessed according to those around me ;D

So, instead of picking one, I'll name a few people who kind of link together so perhaps it'll end up being the quality I like in a youtuber :D

The youtubers are: JacksGap, Louis Cole, Steve Booker and Nick Miller. These all have that uniqueness in their videos and it's so clear that they have a purpose on the impact that they want their videos to have. JacksGap did a lot of charity work with the Rickshaw Run which was inspirational and Louis is constantly getting involved with different projects, to name a different one Sure 24 in Kenya which he visited before he went to Australia, using his platform to spread the message of good deeds was just awesome. Steve uses his channel uniquely, not posting very often but constantly seeking a vibe that he wants to share or a story that needs telling like his most recent video talking about a barrista in Australia, it's the sort of thing that's educating and not just sitting in front of the camera style and it's awesome. Finally, Nick Miller's a new one but his dream is wonderful and the style of his videos are just that tad different and yeah aha, I could ramble all day! To find out about his dream, check him out on youtube, his channel's Nick Miller :)

4. If you had to choose a job for the rest of your life, what would it be?

I think I can successfully avoid this cheeky question with a job role that isn't really set at all; I would love to be stuck in a job where my main goal is to make other people happy. Then, when are you never successful? If you're doing your job then you'll be constantly making other people happy and if I could do that, well I'd happily stay put for the rest of my life :D

5. What is your favourite TV Show?

I don't watch a tremendous amount of TV but I have recently gotten into Game of Thrones which is renowned for its gore and its general extremity and violence. Yes, I would say that if you're faint hearted then it may not be for you but in a way, me being one of those people who isn't really a fan of violence, it's good to see the reality of how battles would actually happen. Once you see Game of Thrones, it makes everything else seem slightly  nicer ;) That aside, the plot is brilliant and the character development is to die for though if you are considering starting, do heed my warning and forward any scenes that make you uncomfortable :) I won't take up any more of your time on the subject but do look it up!

6. If you could go back in time, what would you change and why?

This one bugger of a question but I'll give it my best shot! I think if I ever could, I would try and go and find the most horrible and racist people who caused others to hate innocent people for something they couldn't control and I would try and do something about it, that way less people in history would be harmed for something that doesn't make the slightest amount of difference, as we now know today!

7. If you had the chance to go 40 years into the future, would you?

Yes, for the pure reason that I would love to see how things pan out; what could I go back into time and make sure I try and rally to do right in the world, what could I try and stop from happening? As the question doesn't say into my future (I don't have much interest there, I'll look forward to just living it out thank you!) I would love to see where us as a race end up :)

8. What advice would you give to your 12-year-old self?

All that glitters is not gold. Simply because it's easy to think that everything that looks glamourous and is made out to be perfect, even in your own mind, often isn't and it's not worth feeling like you're less than anybody else because of the way you perceive them. Often, this is not the reality of who they are in the bigger picture.

9. What is your favourite thing to do?

I would say, make friends on the internet. I find it a lot easier to do the right thing and be a better version (by that I mean a nicer, more fluent version, not a 'different' version necessarily) of myself. It's also easier to make friends who have similar interests and that's why it's awesome, because you can go about your life and find people away from your normal life to get along with, even if your everyday life isn't going smoothly, you still have them and it's an awesome feeling.

10. What is your favourite quality in yourself?

This is definitely hard because I don't really think many of my qualities are to a standard where they deserve to be given that much recognition as something good to have. One thing I would say that I was told by a friend is that I 'wouldn't harm a fly' and that's a good quality I think because it shows that I care about the impact I have on other people and therefore, am less likely to hurt people which I think is quite nice :)

Now for the 11 random facts about myself :D
