My Favourite Things

Oh, man. Sorry about the lack of posting - my tablet driver/graphics software don't seem to be getting along, which has put a huge damper on my plans for this month's posts. Unfortunately, those posts will have to wait until I'm done exams and I have a chance to go home and sort my computer out. But to tide you over, Katy has tagged me to fill out this quick meme-thingy :)

~1~ FOOD: Shepard's Pie. Mashed potatoes over gravy-soaked ground meat with peas and carrots and corn. Yum :)

~2~ COLOUR: Forget-Me-Not Blue. When I have my own place, I'm definitely growing a patch of forget-me-nots. They're sooooo pretty!

~3~ ANIMAL: Do unicorns count? ;) My family's never had any pets, but I enjoy playing with my neighbour's dog and my friend's dog and my other friend's dogs :)

~4~ SPORTS TEAM: I must admit, I've never had a huge interest for team sports - or any sport at all, really. I enjoy swimming (I did a bit of competitive swimming in high school), but I prefer being the one in the pool as opposed to simply watching the sport. So I really have no idea about any sports teams :(

~5~ DESSERT: Goodness, I could go on and on and on about this one :) I love tiramisu, but I also love my mom's homemade lemon meringue pie. And hot caramel apple pie with vanilla ice cream is just lovely.

~6~ ARTIST/BAND: Sam Tsui. I've linked to his Facebook page, but go look him up on YouTube! I love love boys who can actually sing - not just wail/growl/whatever to hard rock or metal.

~7~ PAIR OF SHOES: Haha. Um. I have this pair of shoes that I got from the Payless Shoe Store ages ago - and when I say ages, I mean years. But my sister got me a new pair of Vans for Christmas, which are a close, close second.

~8~ OUTFIT: Easy - shirt, sweater & jeans :) During the summer, I like to wear flower-printed skirts. When I'm just lazing around, sweats and my MedRadSci hoodie if I'm willing to get dressed at all ;)

~9~ STORE: I'm going to have to take a page from Katy on this one - for clothing, I go to American Eagle, but in general Chapter/Indigo/Coles ♥

~10~ BRAND: Depends on the product, I suppose. For clothing, I looooove looking at the stuff from TNA, even though I will never be able to afford any of it. For beauty products, I usually go to Fruits & Passion. They have the best smelling hand lotions/butters, and my hands dry out like crazy.

~11~ PERFUME: Don't wear any perfume. Unless you count the body spray I use when I forget my deodorant at res and don't bring it home with me. In that case, it's from Dove.

~12~ ACCESSORY: A sailor's bracelet I got from Boston last year. I dunked it in the Charles River so that I could put it on for the first time.

~13~ CITY: Hm. Probably either Toronto or Ottawa :)

~14~ HOBBY: Reading or baking - take your pick :)

~15~ BEAUTY PRODUCT: I don't use beauty products all that often, seeing as how the only time I really break out is when I get stressed. If I had to choose, it'd be my Dove Deep Moisture night cream.

~16~ SNACK: Either chips, Oreos, or Goldfish crackers in cheddar.

~17~ HOLIDAY: Christmas. Or Chinese New Year. Both are about the only time I actually get to see both sides of my family.

~18~ MOVIE: It's a tie between Spirited Away and Tangled. I just can't decide!

~19~ SONG: Right now? "Hit That Jive Jack" from Cadence. It'll probably change within the hour, though.

~20~ GUILTY PLEASURE: Massive amounts of hot chocolate or tea with extra sugar. Massive. With extra sugar. I'm surprised I'm not diabetic yet. (Also, chocolates of any kind. Truffles are the best.)

Well, there you have it. A little bit about me :) Hopefully, I can whip something up to replace the posts I was going to do (until I had technology issues), so stay tuned!
