I am going to answer questions so you get to know me more before reading the rest of the blog. I am taking the questions from: https://www.womenshealthmag.com/life/a22500573/questions-to-ask-to-get-to-know-someone/
What is your name?
My name is Chloe
When were you born?
I was born on July 27th
Where were you born?
I was born in London, United Kingdom
What was the best holiday you ever took and why?
This is more of a generalised holiday, however visiting my mum's side of the family in Florida because I do not get to see them a lot and even though it is incredibly stressful, the warmth and atmosphere were refreshing.
What is your favourite season and why?
My favourite season is Summer, not only because my birthday is in the Summer, but I feel there are so many better vibes in the summer. I enjoy going out more and have brilliant memories from summer holidays and chilling in the garden with my sister.
Who or what never fails to make you laugh?
I would say my boyfriend makes me laugh the most even when I am annoyed or cross with him, he still looks and me and makes me laugh.
Do you collect anything?
For years I wanted to be a collector of something and now I am! I collect rubber ducks from the arcade now. I have 3 big colourful ducks, 5 colourful small ducks, 1 medium colourful duck and lots of mini yellow ducks with outfits.
Is there one job you would never do?
I think it would be one specific skill of being artsy and crafty as I am not skilled in that area at all.
How do you deal with work stress?
To be honest I would just cry about it and get over it the next day. I feel you have to look at the bigger picture rather than just that little moment. I had to think to myself, will this matter in a week?
Who do you like spending time with in your family?
I love spending time with my sister because we have the same interests in things and when we are not arguing we tend to have a strong bond.
If you could change your relationship with a family member who would it be?
I would change my relationship with my brother as currently, as there is nothing there however there used to be and part of me wants to get the relationship back, but there are still too many raw memories.
What is your favourite family tradition?
We do not do this anymore as we are all much older, but we had something called Love Bombs. This was where each child would write down a few ideas on some paper of what they wanted to happen in life that would never really happen. For example, my sister was around 9 and asked to drive a car. My mum found a place for a 9-year-old to drive around a track legally.
What do you believe makes someone a good person?
I have always been someone who has never carried about a person's past (unless something illegal has happened) and always loved getting to know people if they plan on staying in my life and being there to support me, the same way I would be there to support them.
What life lessons have you had to learn the hard way?
The main one is people leave your life for a reason, and in time whilst the relationship might be good, it isn't staying forever. I also learnt many, many times not to have a friendship group of 3 as you will always be the one left out, crying or hurt.
What is your love language?
I took this test the other day and I had Words of Affirmation at 33% then Physical Touch at 23% and I had Quality Time at 10%. I can see Words of Affirmation being high up however, I didn't think that Quality Time would be my least love language.
What is your love language?
Words of Affirmation
Physical Touch
Quality Time
Acts of Service
What is your favourite story about yourself?
My favourite story is the time my mum gave me an apple for my snack time and she walked away for a few minutes. In the time she had been gone, I was sat munching my apple + the seeds + the whole apple except the little stick.
What is something you have always wanted to do?
I have always wanted to learn a new language and be able to stick at it rather than go on Duolingo for a week and believe I am now fluent in German.
"I exist as I am and that is enough" - this quote fits into my life because I constantly believe I am on this earth to do better, but it is so tiring constantly believing that I am not here just to be enough, I am here to do more than that. I am going to repeat this to myself 5 times...do it with me... "I exist as I am and that is enough"..." I exist as I am and that is enough"..." I exist as I am and that is enough"..." I exist as I am and that is enough"..." I exist as I am and that is enough". If you are feeling the same way as me, recite that quote because you are ENOUGH!
