essehumana: Hi guys, I get to do my first tag! ^‿^

I'm so happy I get to do this! I've seen it and wished someone would tag me (I suppose I could of done it anyway, but it's fun being tagged!) and now Emma AND Yasmine has, thank you :D

Here are the rules:

- Put 11 random facts about yourself

- Answer 11 questions from the blogger that tagged you

- Create a new set of questions for those you tag

- Tag bloggers with under 200 followers

Here are 11 random facts about me!

1. I really enjoy writing (and reading of course)

2. I just bought an xbox and have been playing it non-stop (ac brotherhood if you're interested, it's my favourite although I have yet to try ac3)

3. I'm into all things crafty (my friend and I made christmas bunting :D)

4. I like brackets (they're fun)

5. I'm usually never serious unless it's about a few things

6. I have trouble sleeping (some nights I don't sleep at all - that's always fun)

7. I am incredibly lazy

8. I once got locked in a toilet and the fire service had to come and rescue me (I was really young)

9. I love animals

10. I almost drowned in a foam party

11. I saw busted live (mcfly were there also)

That was actually really hard to do!

Emma's questions:

1. Would you rather wear only face make up (eg. foundation) or only wear eye make up (eg. mascara) for the rest of your life?

Eye makeup definitely - it'd be eyeliner, I love how it can transform eyes.

2.If you could be someone famous, who would you become?

Hmmmm this is hard! A young Kate Moss, maybe. Or Winona Ryder. Or Keira Knightley. Is it weird every one of these females have had something to do with Johnny Depp? It's a coincidence I swear! ;)

3. What is your favourite subject?

Hmm this is really difficult. I loved astrophyiscs and english and classics/history, I even enjoyed maths! But I think astronomy is what I read into most now I've finished school, either that or religious studies.

4. What made you start blogging and why did you choose that name for your blog?

I actually started watching youtube videos first and wanted to do that but the editing process where you're just staring at your face for ages really decreased my self value so I didn't bother with that. I've had various blogs over the years but not really about one thing in particular, even though this isn't about one thing.

I really love language and I think I was just playing around on google translate (Yeah...I do that quite a bit) and essehumana came up which means 'to be human'. It inspired me so I used it for my instagram first, then twitter, tumblr and now this. Coincidently I only recently listened to Ellie Gouldings song 'human' and it has "to be human" in it, that was a completely mind blowing experience!

5. If you could only shop in ONE shop, which shop would it be?

Hmmm this is hard! Maybe asos because of the range it has? Saying that I don't think one item of clothing I own is from there!

6. What are your staple clothing pieces in your winter wardrobe?

Hmm, tights and scarves I guess. I usually layer a lot so I guess my staple there are these floaty vests from H&M.

7. Who inspires you?

Damn, this is tricky! I'd say people who've overcome a lot, JK Rowling, Stephen Fry. Although thinking about it Rosianna (aka Missxrojas on the youtubes) probably inspires me most. When I first started watching her videos in maybe 2008 just hearing her talk about books really made me want to read which was great because back then I didn't read all that much. I think she's coped with things really well and is kind - BASICALLY she's a level one girl crush right there. (If you're unfamiliar with level of girl crushes, girl whatchu doing with your life? It's from Jenna Marbles of course!)

8. What three items would you take with you to a desert island?

My phone, my laptop and a wifi connection.

9. Who are your favourite fashion/beauty bloggers?

Most likely beautycrush, Zoella and clothesencounters (on youtube).

10. What is your favourite perfume?

I'm not really big on scents but I was really into the (sample) illamasqua perfume, freak.

11. What item(s) of clothing have you worn the most in the past year?

My pyjamas, haha! That or some type of lounge wear, or skirts and tights.

Yasmines questions:

1.who is your favourite author?

Hmmm either JK Rowling or Sylvia Plath

2.what is your latest favourite makeup item?

Blusher! I just don't know how to wear it!

3.if you had one wish what would you wish for?

Probably to be the person I want to be, bit vague for a wish though.

4.if you could go back or forward in time where would you go and why?

I'd go back, I love history, If I could I'd go to so many different places just to visit. There's no fun knowing what will happen is there?

5.how have you changed in the past three years, and are you glad the change happened?

I've become a lot more direct. I used to be quite shy but not so much anymore. I still get so awkward at times, mostly online to people I don't know, but in person I'm usually fine. I'm so happy about it, I still sort of kick myself a lot but not nearly as much. I'd rather have said something than nothing at all.

6.if you would be any colour crayon what would you be and why?

Haha ummm I'd be a brown because not that many people like brown so wouldn't use it and i'd stay in tact while everyone else is getting all used up.

7.what was the first album you ever bought?

Probably a busted album haha

8.if you could invent any makeup/beauty thing what would it be and why?

Hmmm, this is hard. This is really hard. I've been thinking of something for five minutes and I just can't think, it's so hard to think of something that doesn't exist!

9.what is you biggest tip for anyone starting blogging?

Have a professional looking or appealing blog, it really stands out of the crowd.

10.what is your favourite place ever?

Hmm this is also hard, probably everywhere and nowhere.

11.if you could create any law (serious or crazy) what would it be and why?

Definitely for animal testing to be completely illegal for the cosmetic industry, I think it's barbaric we're still doing it and insisting on doing it. It doesn't need to be done.

My questions :D
