4. Crazy about Lush products. My shampoo, bathbombs, lotion, balm, facemasks etc are all from Lush.
5. I have a Lip Smacker in every jacket, purse and pair of jeans the I own. The one infront of my computer right now ( found it in my pocket) is Watermelon.
6. The only Norwegian product I miss, is "Norvegia". Cheese.

8. I am going hiking in Snowdonia mountains (Wales) this summer, and will be completely offline for a week.

10. I love going to clubs to dance. Plus it's great exercise.
11. I get shocked over the language a lot of the young people in the UK use. I have never heard so much swearing before. 

Mishkas Questions

1. What's the last book you read? - I am currently re-reading "Lies of Locke Lamora" by Scott Lynch. I normally don't re-read books but this one was really good, and rumor has it, it is going to be a movie. I hope they cast Johnny Depp as the Thief-maker.
2. What's the last movie you saw? - "Scott Pilgrim vs The World". It was on TV few hours ago. :) Last movie in the Cinema was "The Hobbit".
3. If money were no object, what would your dream vacation be? - I would travel for a city-vacation to Tokyo. Rent a room at a hotel that had a swimming pool high up above the street, with a view over the city-life.
4. Who is your favorite famous artist? - Ed Sheeran. When I hear A-Team for the first time I had chills. 100-times later I still get the chills of hearing him sing. 
5. When you're sad, what do you do to make yourself feel better? - I do a number of things. If I have jelly in the house I will make some, and go poking it when it's done. Seeing that thing wobble makes me giggle. If not, I might put on some music; dance a little. Cook something nice, or just go an watch a movie, or go for a walk. 
6. What is/are your favorite polish(es)? - This is a tricky one. I love looking at the bottle to Max Factor - Fantasy Fire (only used it once, no haven't made it to my top 10 polishes to wear). I love my Wet And Wild - Black Creme, I use it a lot. Every time you see me stamp with black, that's the one I use. For nudes I love using Fnug - Fashion Show, and ESSIE - Trophy Wife is probably my favorite color to wear. 
7. If you could have a blog on another other topic (not nail-related), what would it be? - I would spend a lot more time on my geek-blog. Do long posts about tech related items, and gadgets. 
8. If you could meet anyone living or dead, who would it be? - There is one I would like to meet. Mishka, cause she is an amazing friend, and been there for me when I needed it. She deserves a big hug, and cake, let's not forget about cake. 
9. Batman or Superman? - Batman!
10. Leather or lace? - Laces. Definitively laces. 
11. What do you want to be when you grow up? - Aiming at being a Secretary. I think it suits me.

Versatile Blogger Award

The Cute-icle Chronicles just sent me a mail on FB, telling me I had gotten the Versatile Blogger Award.

I found this post about VBA 

•  Thank the person who gave you this award. That’s common courtesy.
•  Include a link to their blog. That’s also common courtesy — if you can figure out how to do it.
•  Next, select 15 blogs/bloggers that you’ve recently discovered or follow regularly. ( I would add, pick blogs or bloggers that are excellent!)
•  Nominate those 15 bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award — you might include a link to this site.
•  Finally, tell the person who nominated you 7 things about yourself.

(I have seen others only nominate 12, but it seems like 15 was the original number to nominate)

7 random things about myself ( that I haven't already said.. )

1. I love watching Anime, my favorites are anything made from Studio Ghibli.  Lain, and Chobits.
2. I am half deaf, but you wouldn`t notice it, cause I read lips, and make sure to position myself correct to hear everyone.
3. I love saying: "I`m turning my deaf ear to you" Never fails to amuse me.
4. Sometimes I feel like an information-octopus, I know I have new messages on FB, cause I have read it before the pop up warning comes. Haha, Im an internet freak.
5. I love the smell of paper in the printer. 
6. I am a professional trained Secretary, and was best in class. 
7. I often find myself knowing things I didn't know I knew. 

And now for the 15 Bloggers:

(In The Cute-icle Chronicles post it says that the bloggers should be relatively new. Since everything is relative, I think I will use the definition used in the post I found. "recently discovered or follow regularly."
