TAG YOU'RE IT TUESDAY - GET TO KNOW ME

Tuesday here at TCD means only one thing! Well, maybe more because there's an outfit of the day post coming later, but still! Tag, you're it Tuesday! I've not been "tagged" per se just yet, but I thought since this is the start and general launch of The Cereal Diaries that I'd go ahead and use a tag so we can all learn some more about me, my weird habits and there's a question on cereal which I think is quite fitting. Let's go, shall we?



1. ARE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? 
Ah yes, yes I am. I discovered not so long ago that I was named after a TV character from a show called Thirtysomething, and the lady who played "Hope" I have also just now discovered has amazing cheekbones, that sadly I do not.


2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?
Last night, I watched Ghost with my mum for the first time, and I lost it, which obviously I announced to the whole room. 


3. DO YOU HAVE KIDS?
No. No. No.

4. IF YOU WERE SOMEONE ELSE, WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH WHO YOU ARE NOW?
I would like to think so, I'm loyal and thoughtful and to be honest could never be a bad person, I'm clueless on how to be. And I have a terrific collection of Dad jokes.


5. ARE YOU SARCASTIC?
Yes. Oh, am I being sarcastic or truthful?

6. WOULD YOU EVER BUNGEE JUMP?
When they invent jumpsuits that are flattering, then I will bungee jump. 

7. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE CEREAL?
I don't end every post with "Cheerio" for nothing!

8. WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE IN SOMEONE?
Their eyes. Not just the colour or anything, but you can tell so much about someone from how they look at you.

9. WHAT COLOUR ARE YOUR EYES?
Very blue. Not bright, but stormy blue. 

10. SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? 
Happy endings, jeez what kind of monster do you think I am? Though actually I was repeatedly told the ending of Ghost was meant to be happy, but he was still a ghost and Demi Moore was still in mourning so I'm not sure how.

11. FAVOURITE SMELLS?
Lavender, vanilla, Chanel Chance, the sea, Soap and Glory Righteous Butter, strawberries, petrol, old books, fresh bread, Marc Jacobs Daisy, hydrangeas, the smell of my house even though it's not of anything in particular, but when you've been away and forget it, the second you step inside you go "ahhhh" and you know you're home because it smells of home. I think my mum uses scent diffusers.

12. SUMMER OR WINTER?
Winter, hands down. I'm pale, clumsy and bruised and have more jumpers than one cares to imagine, I think I was made for winter. Also when you've spent six months in Strasbourg during the winter, nothing compares.

13. COMPUTER OR TV?
Computer, because you can watch TV on it. Clever cookie, aren't I?

14. FURTHEST YOU'VE BEEN FROM HOME?
Ibiza, I believe is the furthest in distance. I was 8, and even now 12 years later, that holiday remains one of the greatest memories of all time. 

15. DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL TALENTS?
What I consider "talent" greatly varies from what the rest of the world considers talent, but I am one badass rapper. I can also twist my arm and wrist a full 360 degrees

16. WHERE WERE YOU BORN?
I was brought into this world in Leicester Royal Infirmary. 

17. WHAT ARE YOUR HOBBIES?
I like watching films with foreign subtitles, writing, reading, fashion, Pinterest, music, Instagram, working on my rapping. 

18. DO YOU HAVE PETS?
You bet your bottom dollar I've got an Irish Setter named Daisy.

19. FAVOURITE MOVIE?
Of all time, The Breakfast Club. Followed by Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Blues Brothers, The Royal Tenenbaums, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Pulp Fiction, The Grand Budapest Hotel, A Hard Day's Night.

20. DO YOU HAVE ANY SIBLINGS?
I do! I'm the eldest of four, I have two brothers and a sister. It's as chaotic as it sounds.

21. WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
"they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”" - John Lennon.

And in a nutshell, that's a bit of basic information about yours truly. Expect more next week, and more posts until then!
Cheerio,

Hope x
