Random Saturdays: Things We Hate



We decided that every Saturday, we will be sharing personal stuff about the ladies behind Geeky Chiquitas! :) For our second post, we decided to tell you guys about the things that we hate. It could be something that a person does, it could be a sound, a feeling, a smell, a word, and basically anything else. Enjoy!


1. I hate the sound of nails scratching cloth. Like when someone scratches a pillowcase or bedsheet and I'm close enough to hear the sound. I really hate that.

2. I hate mashed potatoes. I don't know why. Maybe  it's the texture or something I really don't know.

3. I hate it when people touch my hair. I feel like my hair's just gonna fall off or something so I get really mad when people touch my hair. I can't stand it.

 

1. I hate the sound when a spoon or a fork scratches a plate. The accidental thing someone does when they're trying to separate their food and make it smaller then suddenly the fork or spoon slides across the plate. That sound. I hate that. Just no.

2. I hate ketchup and oranges which you probably already know with the number of times that I've said but I just had to say it again.

3. I hate it when people borrow my stuff without asking, especially if I haven't even used it before that person. I seriously super hate that and it leaves me in a bad mood for the rest of the day.

  

1. I hate it when people walk out of a room, but forget to close the door. How hard is it to close the door when you go out?

2. I hate it worms. Once, it fell on my camera and I screamed so hard I almost cried. I especially hate it when the worm has hair. Eek, it's giving me the shivers.

3. I hate it when plans get cancelled. It just sucks so bad when I look forward so much to something, and it ends up getting cancelled. 

What do you hate? Leave a comment!

Book Blogger Love-a-Thon // Mini Challenge #4: Mash-Up


We were very excited for this challenge because we already had the perfect idea for it. Our idea was to mix fashion with books. We thought that it would be perfect since fashion seems to be far from books though there are books about fashion. Aside from fashion, we also had the idea of mixing our love for food with our love for books. We had a really hard time in deciding which one we should use so in the end we decided to do both.


First, we will write about fashion and books mashed-up. How did we choose to do this? Well, we decided to choose a character and an outfit of hers that we would want to wear too. The character we have chosen is Lola from Lola and The Boy Next Door. She has a very quirky fashion sense. We believe that fashion isn't about wearing nice, expensive, and branded clothes but about expressing who you are through what you wear. Lola does exactly that and is proud of it.


We all admire her for not being afraid to go beyond what other people believe is normal. We would want to wear the outfit that she planned to wear to her prom. She wasn't just going to buy it, she was actually gonna make it. From scratch. She wanted to make a Marie Antoinette-type dress. Just imagining it made us want to steal the dress and go to prom wearing it. There are a lot of other fashionable characters out there and we respect them just as much as we do Lola. Remember that fashion is about who you are and not about who people want you to be.


Our next choice is food. We just LOVE eating! We eat when we're happy, sad, angry, excited, scared, and basically any other emotion. We even eat just because we're bored. How do you even connect food with books? We guess it's how, like food, books can be sweet, bitter, or bitter-sweet. There is also the recipe to a perfect book. Like creating a new dish, you can create a new book. You can use unique themes with unique characters and plots. You can also choose to use a "recipe" in making a book. Meaning, you already have a basis for what the book should be. It could be a cliché but approached differently. It can be the same recipe just treated differently depending on the author and/or cook. Just like the fact that there are no books that are exactly the same, there is no dish that is the exactly the same with a different one. Every book and every dish is unique.

What about you? What else are you passionate about aside from books? What's your hobby mash-up? :)
