Answers to Favorite Recipes Blog and Thoughts of a Brown Eyed Girl‘s Questions:

What are your goals for 2018?

To be as successful as I can be, always stay true to who I am, commit to a steady fitness plan, Get a Job, Enjoy being 17, it’s my last year before being an adult, Stay out of the drama, Live and Learn, Be my best version of myself, stay humble, forgive but don’t relapse with toxic people. It only hurts until it doesn’t. 

Least favorite book from your favorite genre?

The Good Widow –Mystery/Thriller

How do you keep yourself motivated to achieve your goals?

Umm. That’s a fantastic question. I’m a procrastinator so if I don’t do things immediately I just won’t do it…no joke. My workout plan is #overwhelming but it’s something I want to stick to so I do it as soon as I wake up. If I skip a day I literally will skip the entire week lol. So I force myself to do it until it becomes a force of habit. PLANNERS ARE LIFE SAVERS!!!!!!!!!

Favorite book from your least favorite genre?

Shatter Me Review-Dystopia 

How do you track your goals? 

A very large in-your-face calendar. If it’s not written down and where I will constantly see it I won’t follow it. #I’mLazy

Favorite TV show?

Riverdale, Grey’s Anatomy, Nashville, Bates Motel, Mama June, TeenMom2, The Fosters and SO MANY MORE (The list is long so my DVR is hella full because I have no time to watch tv but record everything)

Why did you start blogging?

I was bored and felt inspired by fellow bloggers. I wanted a place to be my space for my writing and book reviews. 

Your greatest fear?

Oh my gosh.. probably getting kidnapped or drowning. I actually have this thing where no matter where I go into a place I say “Hope I don’t get kidnapped” to my mom and it’s turned into a joke but it is something that gives me anxiety lol. Let’s just say I’m VERY aware of my surroundings and the people around me when I’m in public.

Where do you get your ideas for your blog posts?

Pinterest, Other Blogs, Reviews I write, andddddddd I do a lot of research for ideas. It’s a lot of work and commitment that I lack. 

Quote something from the last book you finished.

Oh lordy. “The only good human being is a dead one.”
The irony. It’s from Animal Farm- George Orwell and it’s a satire based novel on Stalin with animals as the characters. It’s weird, okay? You’d have to read it to understand probably. 

How do you find time for blogging?

HAHAHAHA. *falls on floor laughing* 😂😂 I don’t. I am a terrible blogger. I don’t even have a schedule 90% of the time. I never post. I never check ratings anymore. I procrastinate. I don’t “find time” for blogging. I never have time. So when I’m bored out of my brains and have no homework, I post. Which is never. #GoalsBlogger #AmIRight?

A book that deserves more hype?

The Nightingale. It is the breath in my lungs. The beat in my heart. 

The Nightingale: Review

What are your hobbies?

Photography, Writing, Fitness, Backroading, Mudding, Modeling, so much more…

A fictional character that you relate to most?

Nesta and Elain from ACOTAR series. Nesta is so salty and gahhh I freakin’ love her, we are the same person. I’m also a very sensitive and emotional person so aka Elain. I’m a badass #BlackHeart but Sensitive little hooman #PureHeart it’s a strange combination fo’ sho’

How do you manage your time?

Let me take a moment to breathe after uncontrollable laughter. I don’t really. I manage school really well. Everything else in my life is unplanned, messy and unmanaged. Planners make my life more manageable but my day-to-day life is unpredictable. Precise scheduling is the only thing that keeps me sane, not even kidding. 

Favorite book cover? 

Ooo. I love the Everything, Everything cover, it’s so simple but the flowers are so beautiful and it makes me feel happy. 

How do you keep up with friends, email or letters?

I love writing letters it’s so old-school and it’s great. But I usually email lol. 

Sunsets or sunrises?

Both are so peaceful, it’s hard to pick. Sunrises are usually more light, airy, warm and bright, but something about it makes it feel like you’re starting your day off right. Sunsets are so breathtaking. It’s so beautiful and intense, when the sky is orange and thick it makes you think about the world. 

What is your favorite book?

The Nightingale: Review Bby you already know. 😂❤

Are you a morning person or a night owl?

Night Owl. I am not a morning person, I’m very salty and not nice lol. Unless I get up at like 4am and nobody talks to me for a good hour. I love the night so much, but during the winter I go to bed at like 9pm like an old person haha. Definitely night owl though. 

What is your favorite meal and what is that recipe?

OH MY GODDDDDDD. Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo hands down I could live on it. Spaghetti is one of my faves as well though. Also a whore for biscuits, for real. That’s my forte. I love Italian dishes. BEST ALFREDO EVER I made it last night for dinner and it was fabulous. Just add chunks of chicken breast. BISCUITS I AM A SLUT FOR.

Last book that genuinely scared you?

I don’t think I’ve ever read a book that scares me. I’m not a horror film or book kind of girl. My family makes fun of me for it all the time because I just hate them. I’m not scared I just don’t like them. Also, blood and needles make me pass out. So it’s a no-go for a lot of that kind of thing. Reading a horror book might be okay? But my imagination is VIVID as hell when I read so that could be intense. My mind wanders a lot too when I picture scary things and it gets progressively worse and terrifying so no thanks pal.
