You tagged me! Thanks. :-) I love Downton Abbey and Leap Year too.
ReplyDeleteYes I did tag you! I can't wait to read your answers! (I don't know WHY I'm not following your blog yet!?!? Eep!)
DeleteI remember adoring The Road to Avonlea when I was younger...time for a rewatch! Sherlock is fabulous, too, and I LOVE Hello by Adele. Have you heard When We Were Young? It's even better!
ReplyDeleteYES YES YES ALEX you must watch RtA. It is still wonderful. I have not heard WWWY! I shall look it up, I've been searching for new music of late!
DeleteOh my goodness I love this tag!!!
ReplyDeleteGrace!!! I am so glad! I would have tagged you as well but I couldn't find your blog! :(
Deletegaaahh what my afternoon needed: reading your happiness tag. I needed a good dose of happy things. Like Narnia, DOWNTON (JKBFOWEIB I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE A FAN TOO I AM SOO HAPPYYY :DDD) and Starbucks!
ReplyDeleteWhat my day needed: blog time and comments and your lovely words. Thank you for being amazing! (Also YES I LOVE DOWNTON SO MUCH)
DeleteOh my gosh, your favorite words are so pretty! "Cinnamon" has always been such a cozy, cheery word to me.
ReplyDeleteAimee, I agree completely! Thanks for commenting! :)
DeleteYAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I actually smiled at my computer when I saw that the link attached to my name led to my blog. I'm so excited to do this tag!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, lovely ^-^ ps I love so many of these things xD
ReplyDeleteI am so happy that you smiled!! YAYS FOR EVERYONE. I always have to do a double-check when I see our name, too, because there are like three Olivias (I think three, anyway. maybe it's just us??) and I never know who's who!!!
DeleteFroth. YES. Froth! Why have I never thought about how amazing that word sounds? And "socioeconomic" was a total game changer. Those are some seriously great words. :) Also, what does snow smell like? I have never thought about it having a distinct scent. When I have my first snow day, I will make sure to sniff it, haha! ^_^
ReplyDeleteFROTH is the best of words. :) (okay, not really, but close!) and my dad uses the word "socioeconomic" a lot because his job involves working with people from varying socioeconomic backgrounds (see what I did there??) and it is SUCH a fun word to say!!
DeleteEEEEEEE TAG. And a happy tag, too, which is exactly what I need. ^.^ THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA ALWAYYYSSS. AND DOWNTON ABBEY. And cinnamon froth. or froth. or cinnamon. HOW ABOUT CINNAMON FROTH, THOUGH?? bc that sounds amaze. Thank you for listing chlorine in that scents section. xD I actually seriously love the smell of chlorine because I reminds me of pools and that is just happiness. I went skating a few days ago and they had just finished washing the warm room floor with some kind of solution and it smelled like chlorine and I was just like, "MMM IT SMELLS LIKE A POOL IN HERE." and everyone was like, "..." XD
ReplyDeleteAnd meep, thank you so much for tagging me, Olivia you sweetheart! Not sure when I'll be able to do it, but I'm sure I will in the future. ;) Until then I shall list a few things that are currently making me happy right now: the feeling after finishing a very long book, toast and preserves, Sharpie pens, afternoon tea with my mom, reading out loud, and thinking about video games that I want to play. xD
Fantastic post, dear!!
Love,
abbiee
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY. I love happy things. :) And even though I work at a pool and probably smell like chlorine all the time... I still love the smell of it! it brings back happy memories of swimming as a kid. :)
DeleteI can't believe public speaking makes you happy!!! :)
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks for tagging me, Olivia!
