The Get to Know Me Tag!


Thanks to the ever so great Geraldine @ Corralling Books  for tagging me to do this! Things are going to get personal:

Vitals: 

Name:Emily Grace
Nicknames: Emmy, Em, Emmette
Birthday: December 19, 1999
Star Sign: Sagittarius, the archer!
Occupation: High School Student

Appearance 

Hair Colour: Standard dark brown, but I've put lighter brown highlights in!
Hair Length: Medium I guess? I prefer my hair shorter as it get's curlier.
Eye Colour: Dark brown
Best Feature: I wear glasses, and I really like the look of them on my face. Idk if that counts as a feature, but I think glasses suit me!
Braces: Used to have them, now I'm 2 years braces free!
Piercings: Only ears, but I haven't worn earrings in years that I'm afraid they closed up!
Tattoos: None, but I kind of want one when I'm older? Maybe? Idk I'll probably chicken out.
Right or Left handed: Left handed yay!!!

Firsts 

Best Friend: A girl named Jasmine in Grade 1, we were friends for 5 years, but then obviously grew apart.
Award: My school used to give out awards for students who showed good character and were respectful every month, and I'm pretty sure my first was in Grade 2.
Sport: I used to be really into figure skating, kind of upset I gave it up as I could have been a champion figure skater by now!
Real Holiday: I guess Bahamas when I was a baby, but first holiday that I actually remember was when I went to Italy in 2006.

Favourites:  

Film: Oh God, there's so many. The Theory of Everything, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Breakfast Club, the list goes on.
TV Show: Either Grey's Anatomy or Gilmore Girls
Colour: Blue, which is ironic considering my entire blog is pink.
Song: Really? Really, you're going to do this to me again?! Right now, probably Jet Black Heart by: 5sos.
Restaurant: There's this pizza place in Niagara Falls that my family always goes to when we're there. It's SO GOOD!
Shop: The bookstore? Honestly Indigo Books and Music is the best store ever.
Book: Sigh. I'm going to have to say Harry Potter but honestly I have a lot as you can probably guess.
Shoes: My Sperry's, their comfortable and so my style!

Currently: 

Feeling: Neutral? Probably annoyed because I went to school today but there's no one here because we had a half day and I'm stuck here when I could have stayed home.
Single or Taken: Taken by books.
Eating: I'm not eating anything at the moment, but I just had some avocado toast!
Thinking About: This essay that I should probably be writing in English.
Watching: I just watched an episode of Gilmore Girls.
Wearing: My school uniform. Blah.

Future:

Want Children? Nope, I cannot handle kids and I have no desire to raise them.
Want to be Married: I want a long-term relationship, but I do not necessarily want to get married. I'm a pretty independent person.
Careers in Mind: A writer, specifically a journalist.
Where you want to live: Somewhere small and cozy, if we're talking abroad then my dream is to live in either Paris or London.

Do You Believe In... 

God? Yes. I was raised Catholic, and even though many of my views are opposite to the traditional Catholic, there have been experiences in my life that I can only connect to a greater being.
Miracles: Yeah, I do, but sometimes I think that they're a bit far-fetched.
Love at First Sight: No way.
Ghosts: IDK, MAYBE? I think I do, because I am easily swayed by those ghosthunter and physic medium shows.
Aliens: I totally do!
Soul mates: No, that all seems a bit unrealistic.
Heaven: I believe in life after death, whether or not that's the golden gates of heaven, idk.
Hell: No, I don't think so.
Kissing on the first date: Sure? If you want to, go for it!
Yourself: Yeah, I think I do! If you don't believe in yourself, you must try your hardest to get there :)

    1. I know right? Especially in my religion, is extremely taboo to just want to live with someone or to not want to have children with someone. I respect those who want to do that stuff, but why should I be seen as less? Can't wait to see your answers!
