11 Things About Paige Turner:
- I have a pet bird and a pet chameleon!
- I love reading. I wish I spent more time reading but it's hard in my busy life!
- I have a younger sister and a younger brother.
- I enjoy traveling very much. I have been to England, France, Scotland, Italy, Greece, Spain, Cuba and different states in America.
- I really like technology. I wish I was more of a tech whiz!
- I really enjoy indoor rock climbing. I have been a few times this month and I think I have become obsessed!
- I want to write children's books someday.
- I have a bucket list. It currently has about 120 items on it. I have done over 50.
- My biggest pet peeve is people without manners and politeness.
- Because of my profession, I present myself as a bit of a girly girl. But anywhere outside of my profession, I'm nothing of the sort. I am crazy about video games, anime cartoons, and outdoor adventures.

Liebster Award Questions:
1. What is your favourite book?
Favourite book? Oh man. This is hard for someone who loves reading. I would have to say my favourite books may be "The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini as well as 'Salem Falls' and 'House Rules' both by Jodi Picoult. Visit my tab My Reads to find out more!
2. Tell us about your perfect day.
I have never actually thought about this before. My perfect day would consist of time spent with family and friends on a place that is extraordinary in the world (tropical island perhaps). I would enjoy listening to music, reading books, going on an adventure on my perfect day.

3. If there were more hours in the day, how would you spend them?
I would definitely blog more, exercise a lot more, bake a lot more and perhaps write books! I would also play my cultural drums more often and do henna more often.

4. Have you bought anything recently on Ebay?
Nope. But I did buy something off Etsy. It's a really cool online shopping site where people sell things from their personal/private businesses. I bought a Dragon Ball Z (an anime tv show) bracelet.

ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome! Your blog is wonderful and it deserves the award! :)
DeleteThank you! I'm all blushy! You're a legend! ... And I must finally say I LOVE your name :) its a bit awesome!
ReplyDeleteHahaha Thanks about the name! And you are welcome! Your blog deserves the award :)
DeleteI knew you weren't really a girly girl but isn't funny that you have to be one at work? It just goes to show how deep stereotypes run, even among educated people. I think its cool that you took up rock climbing. I think that's the secret to happiness to continually try new things and learn, learn, learn!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nothy! I knew, it is weird how a lot of people have to present themselves a certain way in their careers. And rock climbing is so much fun! It may be my new love hahaha.
