Happy New Year lovelies! I hope you've brought the New Year in with optimistic views for 2013, I surely have. I'm proud and flattered to say I've been nominated for the Liebster Award for a second time since I've started my blog. During my blog move to wordpress, I was nominated by another blogger but never got around to posting about it. I made sure I wouldn't miss out this opportunity! So thank you to Holly from Fashion Realist, just click her name to be directed straight to her blog, it's outstanding much like herself!
Rules:

11 Random Facts About Me:
- I curl my toes whenever I'm sat down which tends to freak some people out.
- I met David Beckham while shopping when I was roughly 7/8 but I never knew it was actually him until I was older. Regret not getting a photo now.
- Slight OCD when planning trips out with friends/family. I must know all the possible routes/transport systems home and timings of what were doing, I oftenly write it all out on paper beforehand.
- I don't want to settle for one job so I'd aspire to be a part time Jounalist/Artist/DJ.
- I feel I've become the person I wanted to be from a young age in the way I dress, act and present myself to others.
- Having children when I'm older is something I don't want to do.
- I can't have hot baths as my body gets over-heated very quickly resulting in me resembling a lobster and having to take breaks out the bath between shampooing and conditioning.
- Damien Hirst is in my eyes one of the best artists to grace the Earth.
- Because I'm a die hard fan, I queue outside concert venues from 8AM till 7PM at night no matter how bad the weather is.
- I'm a big cat person.
- Buy me cranberry juice and fanta fruit twist and I'll be your best friend.
Holly's Questions:
1. What 3 things would you take with you if you were stuck on a Desert Island?
-Assuming there was no wifi connection/signal it'd probably be 1) Sun lotion 2) 18 x 20 x 10 Shed 3) Thick Mattress
2. Who is your Celebrity Idol or Role Model?
- There's different people for different reasons but the main two are Alex Gaskarth as he's surpassed the death of his brother, moving countries and relationships with people and has still been on top form 24/7 with his band and fans. Noel Fielding as he's stood out of the crowd from his London hometown to creative such initiative and interesting art/comedy on his own two feet and never changed himself to better his fame.
3. What's your Party Trick?
- I used to think I was cool because I could make my nostrils go into my nose for a few minutes which made me look like Michael Jackson after all his plastic surgery. But I can't do that any longer, so I haven't got a 'party trick.'
4. If you knew the world was going to end in 24 hours, how would you spend them?
- Blimey! That's a really hard question, who knows what I'd do. I'd probably see my family/friends then just get absolutely wasted. I wouldn't wanna be sat there waiting for the world to end, I'd wanna be distracted with booze and music ha.
5. Do you like your name?
5. Do you like your name?
- Yeah, I tend to go by my last name but I really like my first name (Melissa). It's unusual as I only known one other person over the seventeen years of my life with the same name, I quite like long flowing names. My full title (its long) is Melissa Rachel Claire Valentina Fagan.
6. What is your favourite place to shop?
- Hands down Topshop! Next question.. haha.
7. Describe yourself in 5 words?
- Realist, Hot-Headed, Compassionate, Artistic, Thinker.
8. What type of Movie do you prefer?
- I'm a huge film buff, I have a crazy collection of DVD's even though I could watch half the things on TV/Online. I love a good romantic film but I'm also a fan of gore films (Saw, Hostel etc) anything really floats my boat, except war/fantasy films.
9. If you could change a law, which would you change, and what to?
- This is something that I feel England needs to combat crimes against sex trafficking, rape, mass murder, pedophilia etc and it's to bring back the death penalty. It's such a controversial punishment globally however it's not given out lightly. You would have to be a repeat offender to crimes like I stated above, once you're convicted three times then you would face the death penalty. Even though it exists in America, it has been sanitized from the electric chair which caused pain to the lethal injection which is painless. Which I think is out of order as they have hurt families etc so they should suffer as much pain as possible before death, but that's my extremely strong opinion.
10. If you could be stuck in an elevator with any Celebrity you like, who would you choose and why?
- From celebrities I've already met it would be Noel Fielding and Jack Barakat purely because they're so down to Earth and genuine people who make me laugh. However out of those who I haven't met it would either be Barack Obama, Lady Gaga or Felix Kjellberg (Pewdiepie) because they seem like people I would get along with and seem laid back.
11. Where is the first place you would go if you were given £1000?
- That's quite some money! Out of common sense, I'd visit the bank first to make sure all the money was safe but then I'd probably really treat myself and buy the Chanel classic flap bag in size large. They're a huge staple piece and I always admire Chanel for their leather goods, then if I had some money left over I'd get some Marc Jacobs perfume.
