Oh my gosh! Thanks so much to SHF over at The S Chronicles and Belle at The Life and Times of Belle for nominating me for the Versatile Blogger Award!

SHF's questions:
1. What are your beauty must-haves?
Moroccan Oil for my hair. Seriously this stuff works miracles. It smooths out hair so well and you only need a little to make dry hair look healthy!
I can't pick just one country, so how about a continent? I would tour around Europe! There are so many historical sites that I want to visit and I want to experience the different cultures!
3. What's on the top of your Christmas wish list?
This Fossil Watch!
4. Why did you choose to start your blog?
I had been reading blogs for about six months and pseudo-blogging on tumblr for years, but I wanted to start something where I could actually write to share my thoughts and ideas.
5. Name one class you wish you would have had taken or want to take in college/university.
Call me a nerd, but I'm super excited for my multicultural women's studies class next semester! :)
6. What's your favourite way to relax after a busy day?
Catching up on my TV shows while drinking a cold Diet Coke.
7. Which part of the holiday season are you most looking forward to?
Getting to spend Christmas with my family! Granted, I see them all the time (the perks of living fifteen minutes from my parents) but I'm still excited!
8. If you could go to any game, which sports team would you see & who would they be playing against?
If we're talking a completely hypothetical situation here, I would love to see my Dawgs in the BCS National Championship :) Start your prayers now folks, it's possible this year but we've got a while to go!
9. What is your favourite quote?
I have so many (obviously) but my absolute favorite is probably this one-
10. Which blog(s) do you make a point of reading every day?
College Prep! It's the first blog I started reading and my favorite.
11. Who would you have lunch with if you could choose absolutely anyone?
If we're going dead or alive, I would choose Oscar Wilde. I think we would be best friends.
12. What's your usual order at Starbucks?
Skinny Vanille Latte with a pump of caramel
13. If you've volunteered before, what was your favourite volunteer experience?
I lead a bunch of high school 4-Hers around UGA for Georgia 4-H's annual Weekend in the Classic City, and that was too much fun! That's probably tied with being a teen leader at Rock Eagle 4-H Camp for two years before I worked there as a counselor. I've actually really enjoyed any volunteering I've done with 4-H!
14. Where do you order stationery from?
I don't actually own any currently...when I've had to write Thank You notes and such in the past I just got plain cards from Target...
15. iPhone, Android, or Blackberry?
LOVE my iPhone!
