Tag Tuesday #1: Thankful for Blogger Friends Tag ♡

Hello there!
So I said in a post a while ago (I think) that I wanted to do less tags because sometimes I'll do tags everyday so now I'm going to restrict it to once a week or less, the basic idea being that I do it on a Tuesday hence the title Tag Tuesday so that my blog does have tags sometimes but so it's not just tag after tag after tag.

I was tagged in the Thankful for Blogger Friends tag by Charlotte and you can see her post here, she seems really lovely and I really enjoy reading her posts so please check her out and follow her :)
This tag is split into two parts, the first part being about blogging in general and the second part being random questions about myself. On with the show!

Blogging and I:

1. How long have you been blogging? My first post went up some time in August, maybe a week or two before my GCSE results came out. I was probably thinking I was going to fail all of my exams and I needed to do something productive haha.

2. Are there any bloggers who helped you out/encouraged you when you first started your blog? I wouldn't name anyone specifically because all of my followers seem to encourage me with kind comments.

3. What Social Media has given you the most traffic to your blog? Is there a platform that you don’t use? According to my stats on here, I get quite a lot of traffic from tumblr probably because if I write a new post I'll usually post a link on there. I sometimes post links to blogposts on twitter too, but most of my traffic comes from tumblr and other bloggers on here referring their followers to me haha. I don't really use weheartit or pinterest, I have an account on pinterest but I've not really gotten into it however every now and then I'll look at their DIY posts on there - being the Potterhead I am I'd really like to make lots of Harry Potter themed items, I am currently knitting a Gryffindor scarf with the help of my Mum.

4. How often do you post? Do you have a regular schedule? I don't really have a schedule, if my heart isn't in a post then I will most likely not post it. I usually make a post at least once a week though. I don't really think 'oh gosh I haven't posted I need to go and post something' because if I know I wouldn't read that post then I don't see the point of writing it/

5. Where do you blog? Usually from my bed haha

6. What camera do you use? What photo editing software do you use? I just use my iPhone 4s, I do want to purchase a Canon 600D but the problem is that it's expensive and I haven't quite persuaded my parents that it would be a good purchase yet however I'm hoping to get a job and hopefully I can work up enough money to buy one. I use the app 'vscocam' to edit my pictures, it's the same one I use to edit my photos for instagram but I usually use a different filter for blog photos.

7. How did you come up with your blog name? I'm absolutely terrible at coming up with usernames or URLs (I've changed my tumblr URL many times) so it took a couple of changes to get this one. I was just thinking of those flower crowns you can get and how people sometimes make daisychain crowns, and princesses wear crowns right? I was actually wanting to change my blog URL - thoughts?

8. Do you do any regular “series” posts on your blog? I do Music Monday but that's not exactly regular, that's more of something I do once a month and I've only done it a couple of times. This is my only 'series' type thing, I don't know if Tag Tuesday will take off, I just want to stop clogging up my blog with tags because I do them far too often haha.

9. What draws you to a blog? A nice layout and posts that I know I'm going to read, I'm always drawn to blogs that have a lot of Primark hauls.

10. What turns you off of a blog? Not having the option to follow via GFC, and if I know that the blog isn't my style. It's all well and good that you can get away with outfits like those but it's not me and I wish you all the best but.. well I'd rather follow a blog that I can read pretty much all of the posts and be interested in them.

11. How many blogs do you subscribe to? Are they all beauty related? I read a lot of blogs so I'm not going to say how many I follow, they're not all beauty related. Most are fashion and beauty, but I follow one or two recipe blogs and I quite like personal blogs too.

12. When do you generally read blogs? In the evening or afternoon with a herbal tea

13. What is your favorite/least favourite type of post, and why? My favourite posts are primark hauls because I love primark but I prefer going when I know what type of things are in stock so I can sort of plan how much I'll want to spend. I don't much like reading nails of the day posts because I'm not much of a nail polish person and the nail polish people are wearing doesn't interest me very much.

Some facts about me:

1. Where do you live? Tell us a bit about your city! I live in North West London under an hour away from the centre. It's a nice area because there are open green spaces but also lots of options for shopping.

2. What about your home? I think my house was built over 50 years ago. The man who built it built most of the houses on my road but built my house for himself so originally the plot took up the size of two or three houses but then he sold off the land. 

3. Single or taken? Single haha

4. Do you have children? No no

5. Do you have pets? No, I once had a fish but she died. When I picked her out in the store she was swimming away from all the other fish so I thought she needed a friend, my parents didn't tell me she was clearly the sickest one in the tank, then she didn't eat anything and a few months later she died..

6. Do you have a “day job”? Unless fangirling over fictional characters counts as having a day job, no no I don't

7. How tall are you? I'm 168cm which is just under 5"7

8. Do you have siblings? Yes, I have a younger brother and two older half sisters.

9. 3 words to describe yourself. Sarcastic, obsessive, enigmatic 

10. Who is your style icon, and why? I don't really have a style icon, but I quite like the way Molly Ringwald dressed in the 80s haha

11. 3 favorite bands or musicians. The Beatles, The Smiths, and then for my third it comes between Ben Folds Five and Arctic Monkeys and I can't really make that decisions so have four favourites haha

12. 3 favorite movies. Talk about a hard question.. Back to the future, Bridget Jones' Diary and Pretty in Pink but I feel like this changes all the time depending on the mood I'm in

13. 3 favorite books. John, any of the Harry Potter books.. (does that count as one? I'm counting it as one), and  Little Women

14. 3 random/weird facts about you.

• I have never ordered anything from Starbucks
• I love Hugh Grant films even though I find rom-coms really cheesy, he has such charm I don't know
• I was sorted into Gryffindor on Pottermore (if  you want to add me, you can do so here)

I quite enjoyed doing this tag, and I hope this was a good start to my new series - Tag Tuesday. I've not exactly made it a series to keep you my followers excited for every Tuesday because I'll upload a tag, but more so I don't post lots of tags and I can restrict it a little bit. I will try and do more varied tags that aren't so focused on beauty and fashion too, thanks for reading :)

I tag all of you to this because I consider you all to be my blogging buddies, please post links to your answers to these questions because I love to read them!!

The Christmas Tag ♡

 Hello there internet peoples, I was tagged in 'the Christmas tag' by Abbie which is cool because I really enjoy doing tags (if you couldn't tell my last 50334945394 posts are tags.......) I am trying to cut down on doing the tags but seeming as it's nearly Christmas I felt I had to do this, but from the new year I think I might try and limit it to a tag a month or something.

1. What is your Favorite Holiday Movie?

Probably Elf because it's cute and funny and adorable and it makes me happy. I also like Miracle on 34th Street (the original of course) and most romantic comedies seem to revolve around Christmas so I make sure I watch a rom-com or two around Christmas (it's Bridget Jones' Diary most of the time)

2. What's your favorite Christmas Colour?

 Silver

3. Do you like to stay in your PJs or dress up for Christmas?

I stay in my PJs until lunch then I change into something a bit nicer because if I'm going to be filmed I need to make sure I don't look like a complete troll.

4. If you could only buy one person a present this year who would it be?

could I buy one present for the whole family??

5. Do you open your presents on Christmas eve or Christmas morning?

I open my stocking on Christmas morning with my younger brother, then my other presents in the late afternoon. Who would open their presents on Christmas eve???????? Is that even normal???????

6. Have you ever built a gingerbread house?

No but I want to

7. What do you like to do on your Christmas break?

Watch movies, eat way more than I should, and usually do a puzzle as it is the family tradition (we have a Disney princess one to do this year!!!) Although this year I will be revising most of the time for January mocks..

8. Any Christmas wishes?

Just that everyone has a nice day and is thankful for what they have and for what they receive

9. Favorite Christmas smell?

Chestnuts roasting on an open fireeeeee, seriously though just the smell of bacon sandwiches. I know that sounds weird but in my family on Christmas day we have bacon sandwiches, yes we only have fry ups like once a year. No turkey/chicken until Boxing Day because that's when my grandparents visit, but the smell of sizzling bacon... yum.

10. Christmas meal or treat?

The tins of chocolates that disappear all too quickly

Thanks for reading, I tag all of my followers to do this and if you do please post a link below because I'd love to read it :)

P.S I am going to Harry Potter Studios next week so that will probably be my most interesting post since I joined the bloggerverse..

Random Facts

1. I hate marshmallows, I think this stems from a fluffy bunny type competition my teacher in year 2 made us do but even then I don't remember being too fond of them.

2. I used to be scared of watching the snow queen because of the creepy BBC logo that came before the movie started which you can see here, I actually loved the movies but the BBC logo freaked me out so much that it put me off from watching it.

3. Cadbury's Marvellous Creations are like my favourite chocolate bar, but now they're no longer £1.50 my Mum never buys them and this makes me sad.

4. My 17th birthday is next Sunday (10th November)

5. I used to have an imaginary friend called Jiminy who my parents still tease me about to this day, I really liked Pinocchio  which had the character Jiminy Cricket except my imaginary friend was a blonde little girl with the name of a cricket.. I was weird I know.

8. I overthink everything, I'm not casual about anything, seriously I overthink what I'm going to eat for breakfast or what I'm gonna wear the next day

Too Much Information Tag

I want to apologise for doing a whole bunch of these tags but I really enjoy doing them and reading them, if you don't enjoy reading them then just comment pretending you've read it then go and read something you want to read that way we're all happy. I saw this tag on Chloe's blog (so go check her out) and thought it looked like a bit of fun seeming as I haven't much to do tonight - yes for once I haven't got homework to do, gold star for Bess :)

1. What are you wearing?
My pink pyjamas with pink hello kitty slipper socks, my pyjamas are so adorable sometimes I just can't deal.

2. Ever been in love?I don't think so, I've had 'primary school crushes' and even crushes whilst being in high school but never love. I think if it's love then you can imagine having a future together and it will feel right when you're together and I've never experienced that, plus I don't really come into contact with the species known as 'boys' seeming as I'm in a single sex sixth form and have been in a single sex high school (they were attached) and if I ever see a boy they never come and talk to me and I never go and call them out, damn the life of an ugly person eh?

3. Ever had a terrible breakup?
Sort of follows on from the last question, nope no Ross/Rachel situations in my life.

4. How tall are you? 

The last time I was measured was at the hospital and I was 168cm, however a week before that I measured myself in a shop and I was 5'7, and a month before that I was 5'6 so I don't know and I didn't think I had really grown.

5. How much do you weigh?
I don't really feel comfortable answering this as I struggle with food issues.

6. Any tattoos?
Nope

7. Any piercings?
No, and I know it's weird that I don't even have my ears pierced. I don't have super strict parents who won't let me do it, in fact a few years ago my Mum was persuading me to do it but frankly I haven't much interest. Jewellery is very pretty but I forget to put any on 98% of the time, so I don't think I would ever remember to put in earrings so it seems a bit of an unnecessary faff. In addition, I have family and friends who have their ears pierced who regret getting it done because they don't bother with wearing earrings and they can get infected and stuff. That being said I do think earrings can look pretty, and nose studs sometimes.

8. OTP?
Naomily from Skins, but Emily really annoyed me in season 4 and Naomily didn't really reunite until the last episode so that sort of bugged me.

9. Favourite Show?
I watch so many different shows but I think my all time would be Friends. 

10. Favourite Bands?
The Beatles, The Smiths, Arctic Monkeys, Ben Folds Five, Nirvana and I used to be quite into McFly but now they're a bit of a guilty pleasure.

11. Something you miss?
I miss being free, as I said before I struggle with food issues and I miss being able to eat normally without caring at all. I won't get into this now though, I was thinking of writing a post addressing these issues but it's still something that is hard for me to deal with and as I'm struggling and not recovering I can only imagine it being triggering.

12. Favourite song?
What kind of question is this? No one has a 'favourite song' especially if you're a music fanatic like me who has a billion favourite albums and loves loads of music. My favourite song at the moment is probably 'why'd you only call me when you're high?' which me and Isabella kept singing to each other for a time quite a while ago haha

13. How old are you?
16, but I'm going to be 17 next month.

14. Zodiac Sign?
Scorpio

15. Quality you look for in a partner?
Someone who's witty, shares my taste in music, shares my political views and is kind, they also can't be afraid to get rid of spiders or that relationship is going to get scary when there is an 8 legged creature near

16. Favourite quote?
"of all these friends and lovers, there is no one compares with you and these memories lose their meaning as I think of love as something new" - in my life, The Beatles

17. Favourite Actor?
Jim Carrey or Tom Hanks

18. Favourite colour?
To wear, probably black. In general, pastel pink.

19. Loud music or soft?
Depends what sort of mood I'm in

20. Where do you go when you're sad?
I go to my room, I get really sad at night time so I'm usually in bed about to fall asleep

21. How long does it take you to shower?
15 - 20 minutes

22. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
An hour including drinking tea and breakfast and stuff, about 40-45 minutes getting dressed, washed, hair and make up doing.

23. Ever been in a physical fight?
Nope.

24. Turn on?
Tall, skinny guys with nice eyes and a sense of humour.

25. Turn off?
Smoking, but more so than smoking just people who think they're cool because they've done weed once, and guys who wear jeans that go way past their bum like no 

26. The reason I joined Youtube (or in this case blogging?)
I got into Zoella's videos and blog, and same with Louise (sprinkleofglitter), then I watched a video of them together talking about how to start up a blog and I just sort of came to the realisation that I could do this. Also I had always loved primark hauls and I always come home with a lot of stuff from primark so I assumed it would be a tactical step for me.

27. Fears?
I'm a huge trypophobic meaning I hate repeated patterns, textures, things which have holes in them. I really cannot explain it but if you google it and see the pictures you will know what I am on about, the thought of it can make me feel physically ill. I also hate spiders and I'm a bit claustrophobic, I hate going in lifts (thanks for that phobia Mum) and I really don't like being squashed against the window on the bus unless I'm with a friend who I can talk to and who can keep be distracted. I have a fear of gaining weight and becoming fat. I'm scared about the future.

28. Last thing that made you cry?
The Cory Monteith tribute on Glee that I watched yesterday, I went 12 minutes in the beginning without crying but then I just started bawling and then I couldn't stop. I thought I'd be alright for the last 5 minutes but nope nope that was so emotional, I am so lucky I've never had to deal with the death of my friends or family because I would be a complete mess. I felt like I had a connection with Cory/Finn because I started watching Glee when I joined High School so I sort of felt like I knew them and I had experienced everything with them. When I heard that Cory Monteith died I was just shocked and it didn't really process properly in my system, I couldn't watch Glee or look at my Glee poster for a long time so I have actually taken down my Glee poster. I started watching the new series of Glee for 2 reasons - the Beatles tribute and the Cory Monteith tribute, but if they keep referring back to Finn then I think I will just cry and cry and cry.

29. Last time you said you loved someone?
I don't remember, is that bad?

30. Meaning behind your youtube (blogger) name?

Erm well you know how hippies wear daisy chains in their hair, it reminded me of a crown, like a princess hence the name daisychainprincess came around. I do mean to change it but changing URLs is such a faff.

31. Last book you read?

I was reading Always Looking Up by Michael. J. Fox but I didn't finish it. 

32. The book you're currently reading?
I'm currently reading Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, it's very good so far. I watched the movie so I know the jist of the story but so much was left out of the movie that I'm enjoying reading about.

33. Last show you watched?
How I Met Your Mother (as suggested by Lizzie), I never thought I'd like it because I had read a bad review or comment about it but Khushboo and Lizzie keep watching it in school and my Wings of Hope group is called Legen-wait for it-dary so I felt I should watch it and now I'm quite intrigued. If you want to donate to our Wings of Hope charity page, please click here

34. Last person you talked to?
In person, my Mum. Online, Lizzie.

35. The relationship between you and the person you last texted?
The last person I literally texted was my friend Joey who is like one of my closest friends, the last person I iMessaged (not sure if that counts) was my friend Tanya who is again one of my closest friends but I don't see her now she's moved to Essex but I'm going to see her in half term so yaaaaaaay

36. Favourite food?
Chinese food, specifically sweet and sour chicken with noodles, especially in Chinatown.

37. Place you want to visit?
I would love to go back to the USA but I'd like to go to LA if I went back

38. Last place you were?
Before my room (where I am now..), my Mum's room

39. Do you have a crush?
Celebrity crush - yes. Real life crush - no.

40. Last time you kissed someone?
Is this some sort of sick joke???

41. Last time you were insulted?
Like a couple of hours ago by my younger brother

42. Favourite flavour of sweet?
Cherry

43. What instruments do you play?
Piano, guitar, I was going to start learning the ukulele but I gave up on it because my brother kept snatching it off me. I had vocal lessons for 3 years but I'm not sure if everyone would consider voice as an instrument.

44. Favourite piece of jewellery?
Probably my necklace with two quavers on it given to me by 'Santa', I forget to wear it though so it stays in its box most of the time.

45. Last sport you played?

Films, Films, Films Tag!

Good evening readers, I saw this tag on this blog and thought it would be interesting because I am a film enthusiast. Anyone who knows me will know about the movie tradition in my house where we alternate every week for each member of the family to choose a film and a meal so I have seen a wide selection of movies and I love watching new films, anyway I shall crack on, hope you enjoy!

1. What is your all time favourite film?

This is a pretty difficult question for me because it depends on my mood to be honest, but I would probably say Back to the Future. I love loads of films but I love quite a lot about that film, the music, the 80s feel (except for when they're going back in time and in the future and what not), and Michael. J. Fox is pretty cool.

2. What is your favourite scene from that film?

I love the part where Marty is playing guitar at the prom and his hands start disappearing, also when he's playing Johnny. B. Goode. I also love the bit when he says 'nobody calls me chicken', it always makes me crack up.


3. Who is your favourite actor and actress?

My favourite actor is probably Jim Carrey because he's so funny, The Mask is hilarious, I don't think I could ever get bored of that film. I also love the Truman show and Bruce Almighty, to be honest if Jim Carrey is in a film I can be 98% sure I'll get a few laughs out of it.

4. What was the first film you saw in the cinema?

I have a feeling it was Toy Story 2 or possibly Tarzan, according to my parents I kept pointing at the screen and saying 'look! Look!' and running up down the aisles so I probably wasn't the best companion for a cinematic experience.

5. Favourite director?

I quite like John Hughes, the Brat Pack films don't ever fail to put a smile on my face.


6. Favourite guilty pleasure film?

I feel inclined to say The Notebook, it's a wet movie I know (I haven't read the book) but I really enjoyed it even though it's annoying how Noah and Allie have such a love hate relationship and you can never be sure how they're going to be acting towards each other. 

7. What is a film you hate that everyone loves?

Dear John, okay so I didn't actually hate this film but it was incredibly boring and I had high hopes for it but I was rather disappointed.

8. What is a film you love that everyone hates?

There aren't really films that I love that everyone hates, people on the internet have good taste and agree with me, then people at school usually don't know what I'm on about. I'm inclined to say the entire star wars saga, I love it so much but I only have like a few friends in my sixth form who like it and that astonishes me because it's so amazing.

9. Which actor/actress do you have a crush on?

Woah man we could be here all day if I start listing these, probably Aaron Johnson or Leonardo DiCaprio though..

10. What is your favourite animated film?

I  think Hunchback of Notre Dame or Alice in Wonderland, to be honest I love pretty much all Disney films, Shrek and Anastasia.

11. Who is your favourite film villain?

Probably Frollo from Hunchback of Notre Dame, he's pretty freaky.

12. One remake you wish had never been made.

The only one I really think of is Fame, the original is pretty iconic.

13. Favourite film genre?

I don't really have one specific genre that I stick to, I'm pretty open minded with movies. Comedies are always good though

14. Ever walked out of a film?

Nope, if I pay to watch a film I want to get my moneys worth no matter how bad the film is, yes I'm a cheapskate but if I'm spending £8 on a ticket I need to make sure I'm not just throwing the money away.

15. Favourite sidekick

Chewbacca haha, his relationship with Han Solo is cute.

 

Hope you enjoyed that little tag feel free to do it yourselves!
