Sunshine Blogger Award

A big bow to Afifah as she nominated me to do this Sunshine Blogger Award. It's been years since I did something like this so here we go.

The Rules:

• Thank the person(s) who nominated you in a blog post and link back to their blog
• Answer the 11 questions sent by the person who nominated you
• Nominate 11 new blogs to receive the award and write them 11 new questions
• List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award logo on your post and/or on your blog

Afifah's questions:

1. Introduce yourself as if you really want me to know you and you know I wouldn't judge even if you say your secret crush is Hitler OR just introduce yourself in five words.

Art and writing are my passion.

2. If you never have to work and never have to worry about money anymore, what will you do?

This might be a cliche answer but all if I don't have to worry about money anymore, I'll be traveling the world, alone. Going on a solo trip has always been my dream!

3. What is the craziest thing you have ever done?

My life so far was dull. I'm still living in my comfort zone but the craziest thing I did, I think was when I declined the offer for studying in Beijing. I keep regretting it a lot these days. You can read about it here.

4. Favourite movie of all time and why so?

Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone. Harry Potter series movie is an adaption of the novels of the same name. It's a tale of a wizarding world of a boy, Harry Potter. It has a total of 8 movies. I love Harry Potter series but the first one is my favourite of all time. It's the first ever movie with great CGI I watched when I was a kid so I thought the magic was real. Can you imagine how excited I was?

5. Share with me your quirky-est nickname and how did you get that?

I've never been called by my real name, Alia as I always have a friend of the same name, and that friend got to be called Alia instead. Here's a list: Rabiatul (primary school. I hate to be called Rabiatul by the way), Roya/Roy (high school), A'a (university) and Lya (blog). 

The quirky-est would be Roya/Roy, a combination of my real name, Rabiatul Alia, A friend of mine, Fafiq started the name and the others just followed along. I hated it at first but I got used to it over time.

6. What is your greatest weakness?

My sense of direction. I'll have to go on the route 10-20 times before I can memorize it and because of that, GPS is my best friend. 

7. What is your greatest strength?

I have a high degree of attention to details, thanks to my architectural background. 

8. What is your best childhood memory?

Everything I did with my late grandparents. 

9. If you can only keep five possessions, what would that be?

My phone, laptop, car, notebook, lipstick.

10. What is the biggest character turn-off for you?

Self-boasting people who're also good at looking down on other people aka an A-hole.

11. If you could have any superpower, what power would it be and why? - it must be skills, not something like time-travelling or immortality.

Teleporting! I've always want to travel alone so teleporting would be a great advantage for it.
