Thanks for the tag Simon, this looks fun! Great idea Riya.


STEPS:

  1. Title the blog post as “Wanna know you better!!” ( try to make your post pictorial as this will make it look interesting)
  2. Mention Riya’s blog (me) and the one who nominated you.
  3. Copy all the questions and answer them one by one. (of course, skip any out if you want)
  4. You may create your own questions for your targets (it will be fun).
  5. Pass the game as a challenge to any of your favourite bloggers and mention them in your post.

Simon’s questions (I could of course have gotten this wrong)

Make the world a better place

If you could do or be anything what would it be?

The seven wonders of the world

Name one thing you would like to do or see in your life?

Are you a chocolate lover? If so what kind?

I lied

What have you done that’s embarrassed you?

But of course

Can you still write well with a pen / pencil?

Why do you blog?

I started blogging to write my reasons to live. Now it gives me a space to be, and to meet all the awesome people I meet. In some ways it makes me feel less alone at times. It can be fun. And it’s just an awesome space because of all the awesome people.

What’s your favourite blog post that you’ve written?

I don’t actually have a favourite post. One of my favourite types of posts are the letters I’ve written to myself. I can’t link them here because my reasons to live blog is down, hopefully just for the moment.

What’s your most popular blog post?

Can I lie???? It’s a dialogue post I wrote with myself when wanting to self harm. I wonder why that’s been viewed the most often. The third most popular is about life. And the fifth is today. I wonder how some are more popular than others. My most popular post on my reasons to live site is nothing changes if nothing changes.

Who’s a blogger that you have blog envy for?

I don’t envy any bloggers…. Can I say that? It’s true… Oh, I think sometimes I envy some bloggers who have people responding to posts when I wish some of those people would visit my blog. It’s not actually so much nowadays, more when it was different content.

Neither

Do you prefer tea or coffee?


My questions based on Simon’s:

  • Why do you blog?
  • What’s your favourite blog post that you have written?
  • What’s your most popular blog post?
  • What have you done that has embarrassed you?
  • What is one goal you have for the next academic year?
  • If you would create, run, finance a charity, what would the charity be? – what would the goals of the charity be, what would your charity be about, who would it be servicing?
  • What’s your favourite place to relax?
  • If you’ve ever looked up MBTI or the Enneagram, which personality type are you? In both the MBTI and in the Enneagram?

If you were a colour which one would you be?

IF YOU WERE A……. WHAT WOULD YOU BE/HOW WOULD YOU FEEL?

  • If I were a politician I would be
  • If I were a writer I would be
  • If I were a book I would be
  • If I were a chat show host I would be
  • If I were a criminal I would be
  • If I were a religion I would be
  • If I were a mythical beast I would be
  • If I were a Disney character I would be
  • If I were a drug I would be
  • If I were an animal I would be
  • If I were a piece of food I would be
  • If I were an illness I would be
  • If I were a mood I would be
  • If I were a holiday resort I would be
  • If I were a pattern I would be
  • If I were a tree I would be

        1. Art is fun. What qualifications will you be getting? I’ve never studied calculus and have no clue how hard that would be. Same for Latin. Enjoy art!!!

  2. “Why do you blog?”
    Because I got really hoarse shouting recipes ever week.
    “What’s your most popular blog post?”
    I don’t know, the one the got five “Likes?” They’re all so underwhelming.
    “If I were a politician I would be”
    Voted out of office, that’s for sure.
    “If I were a mythical beast I would be”
    Yeti, because, really, what proof is there I actually exist?
    Etc., etc. Great to see you’re still active, Eliza!

  3. Ooo funky tag. Follow-up question for you – which do you prefer, pen or pencil? I always write with Biro but then there’s something special about the occasional times I use a pencil. I have a huge love of stationery so pens make me oddly happy!
    I’ve noticed now when you go to your reasons to live site it says “This domain name expired on 8/24/2019 and is pending renewal or deletion” so we were right in thinking it just needs renewing, which is a relief at least that there’s no other problem.
    Thank you so much for the kind tag, too!

    1. I prefer narrow inked – fine inked, pens. I like the bic cristal fine biros. Do you collect coloured pens, pencils and felt tips too?

      Thanks! I didn’t see that. It just tells me it took too long to respond. If you see it again could you send me a screenshot? I doubt you will, but if you do. And yes, it is a relief, for I now know that the person who did it can sort it out hopefully easily.
      Looking forward to seeing your answers 🙂

  4. oh thanks for tagging me. But, I’m confused, I can’t really tell how this post should look – there’s more than one set of questions and they don’t sound to me in order – I’m blind by the way. Are there pictures in the post? they usually confuse my screen reader. In any case, I have so many tags to still do, I’m afraid I’ll offend someone if I start them backward. So, here’s a set of questions I liked”
    • If I were a politician I would be – assassinated on my first week.
    • If I were a writer I would be – I actually am 😉
    • If I were a book I would be – illustrated.
    • If I were a chat show host I would be – humorous.
    • If I were a criminal I would be – Robin Hood.
    • If I were a religion I would be – the right one.
    • If I were a mythical beast I would be – a unicorn (so I could fly).
    • If I were a Disney character I would be – Hmmm, they’re all tragic.
    • If I were a drug I would be – Dopamine, Serotonin, or endorphin – one or three would do.
    • If I were an animal I would be – a cat (they’re so happy and independent)
    • If I were a piece of food I would be – chocolate, of course.
    • If I were an illness I would be – eager to contaminate the next target.
    • If I were a mood I would be – happy, relaxed, content (any of the three would do).
    • If I were a holiday resort I would be – my backyard.
    • If I were a pattern I would be – predictable.
    • If I were a tree I would be – evergreen.

    1. I did know. I usually try to make it the same way and write the alternative text in the images but I forgot about it this time 😦

      I love how your answers are all about happiness/joy. Thanks for answering!!!!!

      I wrote 2 sets of questions, the ones you answered and the following (which you do not have to answer).
      Why do you blog?
      What’s your favourite blog post that you have written?
      What’s your most popular blog post?
      What have you done that has embarrassed you?
      What is one goal you have for the next academic year?
      If you would create, run, finance a charity, what would the charity be? – what would the goals of the charity be, what would your charity be about, who would it be servicing?
      What’s your favourite place to relax?
      If you’ve ever looked up MBTI or the Enneagram, which personality type are you? In both the MBTI and in the Enneagram?

    2. I’ve changed the layout. I’m hoping it’s more understandable now to others who either use braille or get it read to them (one of my friends uses braille. Her laptop, not sure what it’s called to be honest, it pretty cool).

  5. What a creative way to respond to this tag. I might have to adopt it in my Award posts sometimes.

    You don’t like chocolate?

    If you don’t like tea or coffee, what do you drink?

    1. I’m looking forward to see.
      Thanks for the tag in your award post by the way, I appreciated it. I wasn’t sure what you were writing to me.

      I don’t like chocolate, I like sugar. So I like the coffee cremes, and chocolate chip cookies, and rogelach that have loads of chocolate filling. (google it for I can’t find if there’s an english name to it)

      I drink water. And fanta zero at the moment. Occasionally I’ll add juice.
      What drink do you drink?

      I actually designed the post differently but changed it to make it more readable.

      1. Yes, I tagged you in my post! I wanted to pass the tag onto you. It seems like you’re rather popular as of late.

        Chocolate-filled pastries make me salivate! I know what those are 😉

        I am a big tea fanatic. No coffee, though.

        Your post was really neat, so kudos for creativity. Maybe next time you can make it the way you originally envisioned it.

        1. Thanks
          I don’t think of myself as popular at all, but thanks.
          Rugelach are good, although I don’t like pastry doughs but yeast doughs, of course only if I like that specific taste 🙂

          I made it opposites – as in the pictures and the words were switching places, but then someone pointed out to me that they couldn’t read it. Enough people can’t read blogs, and always I try and write alternative text for the pictures and make sure it’s readable. So I changed it around to hope that if any others use voice reader to read the posts it’ll be more readable/understandable so as to be less frustrating for them. It was fun designing it the first time
