30 day song challenge … Day 14 – 16
Day 14 … A song you’d love to be played at your wedding
I have always wanted this to be the song we’d have our first dance too. While, pictures of people who passed, who are important to us are on the wall or something. I think Terry would appreciate having something that everyone would concentrate on, rather than him, lol

Complete this sentence: I want to learn more about …
I would love to just keep learning in general. I love to learn. If we get specific though, I would love to learn more about all these ancient cultures that I am completely fascinated with.
On a vacation what you would require in any place that you sleep?
Mainly that it just be tidy and clean. Nothing worse that hopping into a bed that has dirty sheets. Also that it’s not too cold or too hot. I kind of struggle when it comes to sleeping in places that I’m not familiar with.
What is your greatest extravagance?
I am actually about to buy my greatest extravagance, it’s of a Harley Quinn figurine with her “Hyena”…Yes, hyena…Wrapping their leashes around her leg, while she’s trying to shop. I just need to organise my taxes, but I should have enough to buy it.

Before that though, there was a drawing that I commissioned a few years ago (see below) and I have been in love with it ever since. At the time it wasn’t expensive because they were first finding their feet. Too me though it was a extravagance because it was a drawing of me. Surrounded by a lot of “fantasy life” type things. I had never really asked someone to draw me in any way whatsoever. Please press the links for of the Anthea’s work,

What inspired you this past week? Feel free to use a quote, a photo, a story, or even a combination.
I guess what’s inspired me this week was my Dad going into hospital and having heart surgery, it’s definitely made me want to be more healthy. It’s not just about living forever, it’s also about living well. So you don’t have to go to hospital.
Why I really like Beyonce
Other than the obvious, that she is just WAY cooler than I ever will be,lol
I just love her art and how she expresses herself. I know that she gets a lot of slack for how she sometimes her portray herself…But I love it! You take the 2017 Grammy Awards and how she got a lot of flack because some people were asking “Does she think she’s a God” … Clearly Beyonce doesn’t think she’s a “God” It’s called creativity you dingle berries Do you ask Pablo Picasso “Does he think he’s a cube?”
Too me Beyonce is just a Queen of Creativity, everything she does is creative and not the set standard creativity either. She does things out of the box…Which is why I love Beyonce, I love waiting to see what she’ll do next!

List 2 things you have to be happy about?
My furbabies, they were honestly the first thing that popped into my head. The other thing that popped straight into my head is just those who I am very close to. So my family, my partner, my good friends. I honestly don’t know sometimes how I got so lucky. I’ve been losing and getting rid of “unnecessary” people from my life. It’s been great!lol
If you could take a photograph, paint a picture or write a story of any place in the world, what and where would it be?
There is something about beautiful and powerful a sun poking through the clouds. I would love to be paint something like the below picture:
The other thing is when I see a gorgeous image like this, it inspires me to want to write about fantastical places.
Should children be seen and not heard?
My mum always takes pride in the fact that myself and my brother were well behaved children. We knew our inside voices, we knew how to behave in restaurants etc. It sounds like though she might have just been very lucky. So I’m not 100% sure, there are some terrors out there. Wooo, what a sensitive subject! I don’t want to answer,lol
List at least five of your favorite first names.
- Lilliana
- Morgana
- Jasmine
- Joseph
- Anthony or Antony … Which the first name of my Dad and one of my Grandfathers. Which I don’t know if that has anything to do with it, but they sound like strong names to me? Jospeh is my Great Grandfathers names…I’m starting to see a pattern here,lol
It’s a coffee table!
Coffee Tables Create the Illusion of Animals in Water
Artist Derek Pearce creates unique tables that look like animals are emerging from water. Please take a look, these are incredible. The tables are made from glass, plastic and resin. The glass is used as the water, and I have to say it has been beautifully shaped!
Disney is always Magic
I absolutely admire anyone that can draw, I am a visual person and I have so many thoughts and stories running through my head all day (I really should start learning how to draw).

Share Your World – 2016 Week 3
What is your favorite piece of art? (it doesn’t have to be famous)
Monet is probably my favourite artist of all time and pretty much for sentimental reasons really. When I was little I thought for a long time that Monet, was in fact, my great grandfather. Monet looked a lot like my Great-Grandfather. There was this book called “Linnea in Monets Garden” and I could have sworn that Linnea was myself,lol. I would love to own this painting.
What made you smile today?
Well I am actually writing this on the Tuesday and it was having a heart-to-heart with my boyfriend that day and clearing things up and becoming closer and getting to know each other more. Today though this will be posted on Thursday after completely my first week of work, I have no doubt that I am happy right now.

Oh my there are a lot of places I would recommend, some I would recommend for only a couple of days, others I would suggest that you stay for a while. Some of my favourite places to visit at any time (can also depend on the weather as well) are: Victor Harbour (beautiful beach town), Hanhdorf, The Blue Mountains and anywhere in Queensland anywhere,lol.
