It's good old Survey Sunday time again! I hope you are all enjoying your Novembers thus far. Mine has been pretty crazy busy lately, and I'm really counting down the days to Christmas and my little fortnight of holidays I've taken off. Need it so badly!
Anyway hope you are all doing really well, and let's jump into this fortnight's batch of questions:
1. How did you name your blog and why (if you have one)?
Mine's called Yakatey Yak because it incorporates my name - yaKATEy yak, and it also means to chatter away, which is what I do on here. My sister helped me think up its witty name... so a big thanks goes to her!
2. Where do you type the majority of your blog posts?
Usually via an email to myself. I just write on the train or wherever I am and email myself the post or snippets of it and compile it on the actual blog post page later. Sometimes I type on my computer at home, but posts usually come to me when I'm bored and out of the house doing things.
3. How much time do you get off over Christmas and what are your plans?
I've taken two weeks off, and sadly mourn the three months of university holidays that I once had. Oh well, two weeks is more than I've had all year, so pretty psyched about that. Just plan to do Christmas lunch and dinner with family at various people's houses, and relax lots and LOTS.
4. What are your top 5 favourite stores to shop for clothes in?
Marcs, MNG (or Mango), Portmans, Topshop, and I shop in little boutiques a lot.
5. If you were an animal what kind would you be?
I think I'd be a horse. I was going to say a dolphin but then I remembered the deep ocean is kind of scary and I hate sharks so yeah probably a horse. Love horses, and I love the idea of galloping across meadows haha.
6. Are you single or taken? If taken, how long have you been with your partner and where did you meet?
Taken, and have been with him for 3 years and 3 months (woah). We met through a mutual friend once when I was at school (he dropped a pint of beer on my foot at a party!!), and then years later met him in a lecture at uni again. He thought my name was Claire... but that has since been overlooked :P Now I think about it he didn't start off very well haha!!! ;)
7. What is your favourite makeup brand of all time?
I would have to say MAC. I just love all of their eyeshadows, eye liners, lipsticks, lipglosses and brushes so incredibly much. I hate their foundations though. And they are quite expensive, and their staff are usually so rude! But I still love their products and just love browsing their counters so much :P

1. How did you name your blog and why (if you have one)?
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend and I always jokingly say that I'm the shopping queen as I have a knack and obsession with bargain hunting (especially at Priceline) and finding things that have "sold out" in stock somewhere else.
2. Where do you type the majority of your blog posts?
At home. I write them on my days off.
3. How much time do you get off over Christmas and what are your plans?
4. What are your top 5 favourite stores to shop for clothes in?
I actually only have one. I love Country Road and if I wasn't working where I am now, I would be at Country Road begging for a job.
5. If you were an animal what kind would you be?
I'd be a meerkat in a zoo haha. I'd be safe from predators and be able to lounge around.
6. Are you single or taken? If taken, how long have you been with your partner and where did you meet?
I'm taken and I met my boyfriend through our mutual friends. His best friends became friends with my best friends and we kind of fell together... We've been together for 16 months.
7. What is your favourite makeup brand of all time?
Benefit. It used to be MAC but I just can't go past the really cute and bright packaging that Benefit does. I still love MAC but it's a bit boring in comparison. I'm also sooooo over the Sydney Myer MAC staff being rude and trying to run away from me when they see me browsing. Benefit are like a ray of sunshine in comparison :)
oops I forgot to answer question 3. I have the standard 3 months off for uni holidays but I'm going to be working like crazy as usual. The retail world is obviously super busy over the Christmas holidays :P
