Liebster Award

Today is a good day, and you know why? I have internet access once again, which means I can blog after a weekend of silence! Plus, I did not fail my calculus exam, which always brightens my day.

AZIA’S QUESTIONS

If you and your best friend were being chased by a monster, would you trip your friend to survive?

Real talk, of course I want to say yes, because I love all my friends. However, if we’re talking full on zombie apocalypse “end of the world” kind of situation here… you never know.

Which is your favorite season?

It’s always been Autumn, and it shall always be so. Needless to say, I am a happy little blogger as it’s currently Autumn right now!

To be alone on Valentine’s Day or to be alone on Christmas. Which is worse?

As single and proud for the last 17 Valentine’s Days, I have to pick Christmas. You don’t even have to be in a relationship to enjoy Christmas, but it would be so sad to spend it completely alone. I’m perfectly content with eating chocolate and binge watching Netflix on my own for Valentine’s Day.

Do you order your books online or do you go to the bookstore?

I like going to the bookstore and looking at all the pretty books, but they never seem to have to book I’m looking for in stock. Whether it’s a sequel or a new release, it is simply never there. So definitely ordering online, because they’re typically discounted online as well.

What is your favorite type of music?

Romantic era classical music, I’m particularly fond of Britten, Debussy, Saint Saens, Poulenc, and Schumann.

How do you feel about the new zodiac?

As a Taurus, I was initially really close to the cut off date (I’m May 19th, and the cut off used to be the 20th), so the new zodiac doesn’t affect me. I’m not into astrology that much, as I find horoscopes a bit pointless. However, I do enjoy the science behind the zodiac.

Which is your favorite poem?

Unfortunately, I don’t read much poetry so I can’t really answer this question. So, if you have any good recommendations, let me know!

Are there any movies that you believe are better than the books?

Love, Rosie is one of my favorite movies of all time, and I’ve heard it’s better than the book, although I’ve never actually read it. I think I would also say Mockingjay Part 1, because I remember Mockingjay the book boring the heck out of me, although I need to reread those books.

What’s on your Netflix list right now?

Right now, my continue watching is Leap Year (since I just watched it a few hours ago), Chopped Collection, The Paradise, Gilmore Girls, Grey’s Anatomy, and Star Trek the Original Series.

Have you been to the opera or to a musical?

I have not been to an opera performance, but I have been to the symphony many times (band geek alert!), which is in a similar boat to that. As a member of the pit orchestra at my high school, I’ve seen loads of high school musicals. Although, I’m going to be seeing Aladdin on Broadway in New York this spring!

If you had the choice between a seven day Caribbean cruise or a trip to Disney Land, which would you choose?

Oooh! Definitely a seven day Caribbean cruise! I’ve done Disneyland before, and as much as I love dole whip and Tower of Terror, I’m always down for trying something new. Plus, traveling all around the world is definitely on my bucket list.
