Jovana Tomin: tag

Let's see the 2nd round of questions.
26. Do you know triplets?
I don't even think I know twins.
27. Do you prefer Titanic or The Notebook?
I've never watched Titanic and I used to adore The Notebook, although I haven't watched it in ages.
28. Have you ever had Indian food?
Yes and I absolutely loved it.
29. What’s the name of your favorite restaurant?
I don't really go to restaurants, so I don't have a favourite.
30. Have you ever been to Olive Garden?
Nope.
31. Do you belong to any warehouse stores (Costco, BJ’s, etc.)?
Nope.
32. What would your parents have named you if you were the opposite gender?
I don't think they had an alternative name.
33. If you have a nickname, what is it?
Oh, I've got many. Some based on my first name (Joca, for an example) and some based on my last name, but I also get called by my just last name from time to time.
34. Who’s your favorite person in the world?
Probably my brother and sister, tbh.
35. Would you rather live in a rural area or in the suburbs?
The suburbs cause they're closer to the urban area.
36. Can you whistle?
Not even to save my life.
37. Do you sleep with a nightlight?
No, but I don't mind a little light peaking through either.
38. Do you eat breakfast every morning?
Yes, without exception.
39. Do you take any pills or medication daily?
No. Except for when I get headaches every day so I take painkillers.
40. What medical conditions do you have?
None.
41. How many times have you been to the hospital?
I don't think I've ever stayed in hospital.
42. Have you ever seen Finding Nemo?
Yes, but very long ago and I don't really remember it.

44. What’s the last compliment you got?
I was either complimented on my outfit or my hair last, I can't remember.

I don't usually. Only if I really enjoyed them or if they were particularly weird.
46. What flavor tea do you enjoy?
I love a lot of variations of green tea.
47. How many pairs of shoes do you currently own?
1 pair of sandals, 1 pair of flats, 2 pairs of sneakers, 2 pairs of ''smart'' shoes, 2 pairs of boots and a pair of ankle boots. I think that's all. I really want some new ones, I absolutely love buying shoes.
48. What religion will you raise your children to practice?
Whatever they choose. I consider myself an agnostic, but I don't mind other people being religious and I wouldn't want to limit my kids for sure. Believe whatever resonates with you.
49. How old were you when you found out that Santa wasn’t real?
Oh, I have no idea whatsoever. I was pretty young, I presume.
50. Why do you have a tumblr?
My first ever tumblr was mainly a One Direction fandom one. My current one, however, I really like using cause I find it very aesthetically pleasing and it's quite calming and interesting scrolling through and reblogging posts that I can relate to or I think go well with the look of my blog. I also find myself browsing through my own blog quite a lot cause I just really enjoy what it looks like.

So, that's the tag done. I've quite enjoyed answering these questions, but I think I'm done with tags for a while. Talk to you next week.

Wow, I haven't done a tag in ages! This one is pretty long, so I decided to split it into two posts and not to stall too much in the intro, but jump straight into it. Let's dig in.
1. What’s your favourite candle scent?
Vanilla all day every day, for sure.
2. What female celebrity do you wish was your sister?
I mean, I'm pretty content with my real life sister, but if we were to have another one I think Megan Ellaby would be fun. Also, have you seen her outfits? She's absolute goals.
3. What male celebrity do you wish was your brother?
Same situation as with my sister, so if I were to choose another brother I think it would be Troye Sivan. He seems like a really nice person and a lot of fun.
4. How old do you think you’ll be when you get married?
Oh wow. I genuinely have no idea, possibly in my late twenties? I don't know, I'm just gonna move on from this question asap.
5. Do you know a hoarder?
Definitely not - I love throwing things out.
6. Can you do a split?
Almost.
7. How old were you when you learnt how to ride a bike?
I have no clue, I was probably around 5.
8. How many oceans have you swam in?
If the Mediterranean Sea counts as a part of the Atlantic, then only that one. If it does not, then none.
9. How many countries have you been to?
Montenegro, Romania, Italy, Switzerland and Hungary.
10. Is anyone in your family in the army?
Nope.
11. What would you name your daughter if you had one?
If she were to have an English name, I would maybe go for Blair. In general, I quite like shorter names.
12. What would you name your son if you had one?
Again, if we're talking English names, I really like Noah for an example. Boys' names are much prettier in my opinion, it's a much easier task.
13. What’s the worst grade you got on a test?
I've had 'em all.
14. What was your favourite TV show when you were a child?
All the Disney shows basically - The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place and so on.
15. What did you dress up as on Halloween when you were eight?
Nothing because we don't celebrate Halloween here.
16. Have you read any of the Harry Potter, Hunger Games or Twilight series?
I've read 4 Harry Potter books, but I never finished the series. I probably should.
17. Would you rather have an American accent or a British accent?
British for sure.
18. Did your mother go to college?
Yes, she did.
19. Are your grandparents still married?
If they were all alive, they would probably still be married.
20. Have you ever taken karate lessons?
Nope.
21. Do you know who Kermit the frog is?
Of course.
22. What’s the first amusement park you’ve been to?
Just a small local one. I've never been to a big, famous one.
23. What language, besides your native language, would you like to be fluent in?
I mean, I'm studying Swedish in college so that would be pretty cool to be fluent in. I'd also love to speak German, Italian and Spanish.
24. Do you spell the colour as grey or gray?
Grey, I think. It varies from time to time.
25. Is your father bald?
Not completely.

There you have it - the 1st part of this tag. Next part is coming on Wednesday.

I haven't been doing many tag posts lately, so I decided to get back to it. You know I find it really fun answering questions, and tags are the perfect opportunity to do so. I also love autumn, so this tag seemed like the obvious choice.

1. What signifies the start of autumn for you?

Basically as soon as September 1st rolls around, I'm ready to crack out all of my autumn attire, but the real start of autumn for me is the day that the Sun starts setting earlier, the nights get crisp and chilly and the leaves start turning brown and falling down.

2. What is your favourite autumn scent?

In contrast to summer, I like my autumnal scent to be slightly heavier, but I still haven't found my signature scent.

3. What is you favourite autumn colour?

My favourite autumn colour is hands down burgundy. I love wearing burgundy sweaters, leggings, accessories, nail polish (Essie's Wicked), lipsticks... Everything burgundy can go.

4. What is your favourite autumn drink?

My beverage of choice throughout autumn and winter is definitely green tea. I love the taste of it and I love that it has so many health benefits. You can't go wrong with it.

5. What TV show, new or old are you looking forward to this autumn?

I am not looking to start any new TV shows as I already have so many to catch up with and I don't have nearly enough time as I'd need to watch all of them. However, I am loving the classics - Scream Queens, How to Get Away With Murder and occasional Gossip Girl episodes.

6. What is your favorite autumn fashion trend?

Scarves, scarves, scarves! I have a few humongous scarves that can easily serve as blankets and I love wearing them whenever it's cold outside. When classrooms or cafes get cold, I just wrap myself in my blanket scarf of the day and instantly feel warmer and cozier.

7. What is your favourite frugal autumn activity?

I absolutely love taking photos of the beautiful autumn sky, the brown leaves and tree branches, which I'm sure you'll be able to tell from all the photos on my blog. I also enjoy walking along leaf covered streets.

8. Are you a bigger fan of Thanksgiving or Halloween?

We don't celebrate either in my country, although we do have a few Halloween parties here and there. I guess that's what I prefer automatically.

Feel free to ask me any other questions you'd like the answer to down in the comments and I'll be sure to anwer them. Talk to you Sunday!

1. What school are you attending?

Faculty of Philology in Belgrade.
2. What year are you entering?

I'm entering the first year so I'm a confused little freshman.

3. What made you choose this school?

I've always known I'd end up studying a language in college so it came as no surprise to anyone that I chose this school. I am going to be studying Scandinavian culture & literature as well as the Swedish language.

4. When did you apply and get accepted? Describe your experience.

Our system is a bit different over here. We have entrance exams for each college and if you do well on it, you will get into the college that you've chosen. Because I had been preparing for months before the actual exam, I knew I would get into the college, I was just unsure about the language that would be available. I ended up being 20th on the list out of 1300 candidates, so I was able to choose the course I wanted.

5. Are you prepared to leave the nest?

I have already left the nest and I am quite enjoying it. I love being able to see what ''real life'' is like and being responsible for yourself. Of course, sometimes I miss the comforts of my home and having all of my friends and my parents with me, but this is a positive thing for my future, so I try not to complain and I think of it as a good change.

6. Have you met your roommate yet? What do you think?

I am actually living with my best friend of 7 years in a rented apartment, so yes, I have met her and I think we're gonna get along great.

7. If you could take only 3 things to college what would they be?

Phone, wallet & fluffy socks.

8. What is one college resolution?

I haven't really made any resolutions, but I guess I would love to become a bit more outgoing and less shy around new people.
9. What is your go to college look? (hair and makeup)

Makeup wise I tend to go for a very simple look - foundation, mascara, brows. That's what I used to do all through high school and what I'll continue doing in college. I like that that look is really simple and easy, but still spruces up your tired face. Sometimes I'll even add a bit of bronzer on my cheeks and eyelids.

Hair is a bit more complicated as it depends on whether it's clean or not. If it's clean I always wear it down until it starts to annoy me and I tie it up. If it isn't very clean, I tie it up from the start.

10. What is your advice to high school seniors and/or incoming freshmen?

To high school seniors I say do your best and try not to worry too much about the outcome. If you get in, amazing! If you don't, you'll at least know that you gave your 100% and there's always next year. It's not the end of the world if something goes wrong. Good luck!

To college freshmen: we're all in the same boat of confusion and anxiety. You're not alone.

I'm not actually the biggest fan of spring, but I thought like doing a tag today, so here it is.

1. Favourite spring nail polish?

I love pastel colours and I think spring is the perfect time to whip them out. My favourite nail polish is probably KIKO Cupcake Nail Polish 648 which I'm probably gonna paint my nails with as soon as I'm done with writing this post.

2. What's your must-have lip colour this spring?

I don't own a lot of lip products, but I would love to get a brown lipstick, which I guess is more of a autumnal shade, or a really pretty pink - something like Kandy K from Kylie's Lip Kit collection.

3. Show us your favourite spring dress!

I don't really tend to wear dresses in spring, sorry.

4. What's your favourite flower?

My favourite flowers are definitely peonies.

5. Favourite spring accessory?

I love wearing lots of rings or some cute necklaces, but that's all year round though.

6. What spring trends are you most excited about this year?

I guess baby pink is hugely popular, which is fortunate for me because it's my favourite colour at the moment. I'm excited to wear lots of pink eyeshadows, nail polishes, clothes, etc.

7. Favourite spring candle?

I just love a good vanilla candle any time of the year, to be honest.

8. Favourite body spray/perfume for spring?

I don't have a specific one, but for spring and summer I like to wear something really fresh and maybe a bit fruity.

9. What is spring like where you live?

It's is sooo hot! That's the reason I'm not a big fan of spring, because it's not really a transitioning season, it's just early summer. Although, right now it is very gloomy and rainy outside, so I guess it's kind of unpredictable hence the frequent headaches I get.

10. What's your favourite thing about spring?

I think my favourite thing is how beautiful everything is with all the flowers blossoming all over the place. Apart from that, when it's warm instead of boiling hot, it's nice to go for a stroll or do some outdoor activities with friends.

11. Are you a spring cleaner?

Definitely! It's just a matter of time when it happens, but I definitely take a few days to completely clean my room every year (not just in spring obviously). I actually started my spring cleaning yesterday.

12. Any plans for spring break or an upcoming vacation?

I will be spending this spring break studying like a mad person, because I am getting very nervous about the end of high school and the college entrance exam. However, I think I'll be spending Easter with my family, so that might be fun.

That's the end of this tag, hopefully you enjoyed it. I love writing tags! Answering questions is one of my favourite activities cause I'm such a nerd apparently. I'll talk to you Thursday (most likely)!

To be honest, I don't actually know if this is a tag or just a random post that I found and figured it was a tag. Regardless, I am gonna answer those 25 questions as if it was a tag.
1. What is your middle name?
I don't have one. Middle names aren't really common in my country.
2. What is your favourite subject in school?
I absolutely love learning English and Art. I also enjoy reading, so I like Serbian where we do grammar and literature.
3. What is your favourite drink?
If we're talking nonalcoholic I would probably have to say either mango and orange (or lemon, I'm not sure) flavoured green tea or a vanilla macchiato. As far as alcoholic beverages go, I love me some red wine, particularly blackberry wine. I also like beer, though, I'm not too classy.
4.What is your favourite song at the moment?
Hands down my favourite song at the moment is The Sound by The 1975 because it instantly puts me in such a great mood and makes me wanna dance around like I don't have a care in the world.
5. What is your favourite food?
This will forever be the most difficult question. Let's see, I definitely adore Italian food and I also like Indian, even though I've had it only once, but I can't choose a single meal. Speaking of Italian, I am currently craving a Mexican pizza with minced meat on it. I hate this question.
6. What is the last thing you bought?
I last went shopping a week ago and I bought a skirt from New Yorker and an Essence eyeliner.
7. Favourite book of all time?
I am currently searching for a new favourite book, but right now I guess I would say it's either The Catcher in The Rye or The Perks of Being a Wallflower. But I'm kind of in a phase of getting over Y/A books and looking for a more quality piece of literature.
8. Favourite colour?
Straight up baby pink. I just want to have everything in that colour, and I do mean everything. It's just so pretty.
9. Do you have any pets?
Unfortunately, I don't have any pets, but I would LOVE to have a dog, preferably a French Bulldog. I wouldn't mind a Pug either.
10. Favourite perfume?
It's got to be the Marc Jacobs Daisy (the first one) or a Chloe one, even though I've never owned either one. I just smell them at airports and stuff.
11. Favourite holiday?
Definitely Christmas.
12. Are you married?
Lol, I'm 18 and single af.
13. Have you ever been out of the country, if so how many times?
I've been out of the country quite a few times, I don't know the exact number, but the countries I've been to are: Romania (Timisoara), Italy (Rome), Switzerland (Trogen, Zurich, Luzern, St. Gallen), Montenegro (Bar) and Hungary (Budapest).
14. Do you speak any other languages?
Well English is not my native language, so besides English I obviously speak Serbian. I'm hoping to learn many more in the future, though.
15. How many siblings do you have?
I've got two older siblings - a brother (31) and a sister (29 in a month).
16. What is your favourite shop?
Probably the drugstore and H&M, I guess.
17. Favourite restaurant?
I don't really have one. Soz.
18. When was the last time you cried?
I think it was about month ago. I don't really cry very often.
19. Favourite blog?
I think at the moment it's Eleanor Calder and Max Hurd's fashion blog The Trend Pear. Go check it out if you're interested in fashion.
20. Favourite movie?
Either The Art of Getting By, The Perks of Being a Wallflower or Palo Alto, I'm not a huge movie person though.
21. Favourite TV Shows?
Are you ready for this? Let's see... Scandal, How To Get Away With Murder, Suits, Pretty Little Liars, Modern Family, Younger, Friends (obviously), Bates Motel (which I've just realised it coming out with a new season), Downton Abbey, Sherlock. That's all I can think of right now.
22. PC or Mac?
I've got a PC, so...
23. What phone do you have?
I have a Sony Xperia M2.
24. How tall are you?
I don't know exactly, I think about 162 cm (5'3'')
25. Can you cook?
Kind of, when I want to or have to I can whip something up.
That's all, I hope you liked this tag and I'll talk to you Thursday.
