Cherin's Eleven Questions
1. What is your favorite sound?
The click that the jug makes in the morning so I can make my coffee =P
Either that or rain.
2. Favorite recipe your parents or grandparents taught you.
I think the only recipe that either my parents or my grandparents have actually taught me was my Dad taught me how to cook an omelette a few months ago. Though I have helped my Nan ice cupcakes when I was a kid :)
3. Have you done any extreme sports (bungie jumping, sky diving) or would you if you had the chance?
I haven't, and probably wouldn't either. The idea of jumping out of / off a perfectly good object absolutely terrifies me!
4. What place have you always wanted to visit?England! I love the history, and I kind of want to see snow... (I've only seen it once)
5. Do you have a guilty pleasure and what is it?
I love reality TV...
6. Name your favorite Halloween candy.Since I live in Australia, Halloween isn't a big deal as it seems to be in the USA, so I've never actually tried candy corn or anything like that before! But my favorite candy in general are Chuppa Chupps.
7. Paper or plastic?
Paper?
8. Describe your "go to" outfit.
Skater dress, patterned leggings, scarf (or long necklace) and ballet flats.
9. What is the best present you ever received?
Oooh that's a hard question. Most practical goes to my parents (new desk chair for my 21st!), but best... the tea pot and cup my boyfriend gave me for my birthday last year.
10. Least favorite subject in school?
Maths!
11. Sunrise or sunset?
Sunset, because I think I've only seen one sunrise in my life :)
