Hello everyone! I was nominated again for the Versatile Blogger Award by Jackie from The Vibrant Dreamer blog! You can see her post here if you haven’t already. This will be my second time doing this but I’ve decided since I haven’t in a while, it would be good to redo it with different facts this time!
So the Rules to the award are as follows:
- Thank the person who nominated you
- Link to the blog of the person who nominated you
- Share 7 facts about yourself
- Nominate 15 more bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award
7 Facts About Myself
- I love green tea. Green tea or matcha anything, give it to me! I’ve had green tea ice cream, green tea iced latte (from Starbucks and they are SO good), green tea kit kats, and right now I’ve currently got my eyes set on trying green tea Pocky.
- I love to draw. I can’t remember when I first started drawing, but I’m pretty sure my father instilled a love for doodling in me. Since the New Year, I’ve began drawing and painting much more and have also made an Instagram account for it! In case you’re interested in following me there, it’s @geraldinedraws! I would love to develop my artwork and one day make money off of doing what I love.
- I’ve fished a string of spinach from someone’s teeth before. I’m a dental hygienist and yes, there are some days I want to throw up.
- I love Studio Ghibli films. Some of my favorites are Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke, and the Secret World of Arrietty! If you haven’t watched any of these, I highly recommend you do.
- I love modern, contemporary, and minimalist interior design. Aside from the neutral color scheme with pops of color, I love how clean and simple everything looks! I really need that in my life.
- I dislike country music. I hope I don’t offend any of you that do but I just can’t listen to it. I’d have to say there’s probably only 2 country songs I’m okay with.
- I’m good at guessing. There were many guessing games during my elementary and middle school years and I won many. I got to enjoy lots of candy prizes!
I nominate:
- Syrah from RNSoul
- Susan from Joyful Tiny Living
- Melissa from Castles and Hurricanes
- Leanne from the Cysters Tribe
- Nancy from Exquisitely Me
- Lauren from Creatively Lauren
- Elvira from ElviraEdison
- Carrelle from Carnys Chronicles

I cheated a bit there but it’s more than half! I apologize in advance if anyone’s done it recently and don’t want to do it again! Anyway, that’s all for today’s post.
Hope you enjoyed! Until then ♡

I love love Ghibli films! My absolute favorite is Whisper of the Heart. ♡♡♡ I checked out your IG and followed you! I’m @helloannajo 🙂 looking forward to seeing more of your works!

Ahh thank you so much Anna! I followed you back 🙂 I also like that movie though I thought it was crazy or a twist of events when she said she might fall in love with him hahaha!
Thanks for nominating me again haha. I had no idea that there’re green tea kit kats-that seems like such an interesting flavor. That’s so gross that you found spinach in someone’s teeth! My mom always told me to brush my teeth before I go to the dentist, but I guess not everyone does that. I love minimal designs too! I think it makes everything look clutter-free and organized. I always end up straying when it comes to my designing my own place though because I like bright and weird things lol. And I also dislike country music. There’s some that I enjoy more than others, but especially if the song is SUPER country sounding I can’t stand it. Thanks for sharing all of these facts! 🙂
Green tea kit kats are so good! If you like green tea then I think you’d like that one as well. It’s just sweeter! 😉 Haha I wish everyone followed that rule of brushing their teeth before going to the dentist but some even eat right in the waiting room before being cleaned. GROSS. I don’t have much room for reorganizing and designing my room right now but yeah I totally know what you mean! I don’t know if I’d be able to follow suit with making it super minimalist haha, I love pops of color! Glad to know we have some similarities!
Such a lovely post! I love these kind of nominations, always getting the better picture of who’s on that side of the screen 🙂

Thanks Jasmmin! It is always very fun to do 🙂
I felt my stomach turn when I read the spinach thing :’) But hey, we need (brave) lovely people like you to keep our teeth looking lovely! Also, I love green tea, too! I’ve been having regular tea in its place during winter because I find it more comforting but I need to get back into drinking green tea.
Hahaha yes when I recall that memory of doing so, I too wanted to vomit 🙂 It’s quite sickening sometimes! I love regular tea, I’ve actually been drinking that more often than green tea, so I know what you mean!
Loved learning more about you Geraldine. Have to say, I’m not a fan of country music either! X
Hahaha glad we share the same view on that one. Thanks for reading Alison!
Oh my gosh I loveee Studio Ghibli films, my top 3 are The Cat Returns, Howls Moving Castle and Whisper of the Heart, and Spirited Away lol that was more than 3 but I couldn’t do 3 haha. I haven’t watched any in a good while though so I think I might do that tomorrow evening when I get in from work!!

Ahh gosh I don’t quite remember The Cat Returns, I will have to watch that one again!! They have so many lovely movies and I love staring at the illustrations! 🙂 A movie night with Studio Ghibli sounds good!
I also love green tea/matcha!!! I didn’t think I’d like the matcha from Starbucks but I really do. I’m also a Studio Ghibli fan although I haven’t seen as many of the films as I’d like. Castle in the Sky is my favorite though! Thanks for sharing!
Yesss the one from Starbucks is so nice!! I also like Castle in the Sky, will have to watch that again!
Congrats on this nomination!! Very well-deserved! 🙂 Loved reading these facts about you – I’m also a huge fan of Howl’s Moving Castle. It is my favorite of the Studio Ghibli films!
Thank you so much!! Ahh I am always happy to meet other Studio Ghibli fans 😍
Green tea is my fav! green tea icecream is so delicious and i’ve tried the green tea mochi which is also pretty good.
I don’t think I’ve had the iced latte but I will def try that next time <3
I love Spiried Away too! My fav is prob Kikis Delivery Service though! I really need to see more Ghibli films hehe
Dang I really can't handle country music either lol but yeah there are a few songs I wouldnt mind listening to!
Thanks for sharing <3
oooh I LOVE green tea mochi! Kiki’s Delivery Service was pretty good, it was one of the earliest movies I’ve watched from them 🙂 I have yet to find a country song that I wouldn’t mind listening to and not sure if I ever will haha. Thank you so much for reading!
Congratulations on getting a second Versatile Blogger Award! Mmm, green tea is so good for you. I love that you’re pursuing your dreams right now! Keep it up, girl! Oh man, I always try to brush my teeth before going to the dentist because the last thing I want is to gross someone out, haha. OMG I AM THE SAME ABOUT COUNTRY MUSIC LOL. Please keep that away from me. Thanks for the nomination, love!
Nancy ♥ exquisitely.me
Thank you thank you Nancy! Hahaha good, thank you for being one of the people who do us a favor and brush beforehand!! LOL I love how disgusted you are about it hahaha!! You are totally welcome <3
This is a really fun post, Geraldine! I’m a fan of green tea as well, I’ve never tried green tea ice cream but I think I need to! I don’t like country music either, I’m okay with Country Roads but I much prefer the punky version! I’ve never seen any Studio Ghibli films, but I think I need to, the animations always look so amazing! Thanks for sharing lovely <3 xx

Thank you so much Bexa! If you like green tea then I think you’ll like green tea ice cream 🙂 If I count country roads then I guess that IS the only thing I’m okay with listening to haha!! I think I have heard of the punk version before and I thought it was interesting 🙂 I highly recommend Studio Ghibli films, they are so magical ✨
Congratulations on your nomination. It’s well deserved. You are always so supportive of other bloggers. Always leaving such lovely and thoughtful comments. I don’t really like green tea, but I do like some fruity teas. Thank you for sharing xxx
Thank you so much Lauren!! That means a lot 🙂 Fruity teas are delicious, I’m actually drinking some now 😊
