Random Saturdays: GCQ Facts

20
Hey guys! It's been quite some time since we've posted something that isn't about books. This is why we decided that every Saturday, we will be sharing personal stuff about the ladies behind Geeky Chiquitas! :) For this first post, we will share to you 20 random facts about us. It could also be just about one of us, two of us or for all of us. Enjoy!

Numbers 1-5 will be about Beryl, 6-10 about Audrey, 11-15 about Kimi and 16-20 about all of us.



1. I HATED reading books when I was younger. Yes, I really did and now I'm book blogging! Just as they say "Expect the unexpected".

2. I heart fresh orange juice! I could go swimming in it. Ha ha kidding!

3. I can't wink properly. I've tried this many times, but usually people just start laughing. I think I look like I'm having a seizure.

4.  I always screenshot different clothes, shoes, bags, and other "girly" stuff that I want online, then I just keep it there. I normally don't buy them.

5. I feel queasy when I see blood. I think that's obviously the reason why I can never be a doctor.

Liebster Awards #2

We were nominated for the Liebster Awards by Rimsha@Ramblings of a Bookworm. This is the 2nd time we have been nominated and we're just so thankful for everything! :) It's a very great opportunity for us and we are very excited to participate in it.

11 Facts About Us:

1. We love food. That will never, ever, ever change. This will remain true until the end of the time. Even when zombies have taken over the earth or mutant rabbits are ruling the earth, we will still love food.

2. We are not morning people. You really don't wanna see us on the morning. Not only do we look terrible, our attitudes are terrible too.

3. We are all allergic to dust. We start sneezing and our eyes start to itch and redden whenever there is too much dust in one place.

4. The age gap between Audrey and Kimi is nearly 7 years. Even if it is like that, we hardly notice the difference and Kimi doesn't really look older than Audrey since Kimi looks really young and Audrey looks older than her actual age.

5. We all spend too much time watching series. We don't think that we will ever actually get rid of this habit and we don't really think of it as a problem right now.

6. We are all addicted to chocolate and pizza. You guys may have heard this a million times from us but we couldn't stop ourselves from stating it yet again.

7. We all feel unprotected without our gadgets. Whenever we have left our gadgets at home because we forgot to bring it or because it's charging, we feel like a part of us is missing and can't wait until we get our gadgets back again.

8. We love unicorns. It might seem childish to you but it's just something that we all like.

9. We can't sleep with the lights on. Actually, Beryl is the one who really can't sleep with the lights on but Kimi and Audrey have difficulty too.

10. Audrey doesn't like eating oranges. It's not because she thinks that oranges taste bad, it's simply because she is always unsuccessful at taking the skin off and she hates the feel of the seeds.

11. We all like reading in our iTouches or iPads under the comforter. We don't know why but we really do like reading underneath the covers. We think that maybe it's because it's more peaceful there but we have no solid theory.

Questions Asked to Us by Rimsha@Ramblings of a Bookworm:

1. Why do you love to read and blog?
We love reading and blogging because of the thrill we get from it. We also love the blogging community and have a passion for books. We love the feeling of being in a new world while reading books and meeting new people while blogging. We also love interacting and getting noticed by our favorite authors and fellow bloggers.

2. What are your hobbies?
Aside from reading and blogging, we also love watching television shows and movies. We like to eat (is that considered a hobby?) whenever we're bored or have nothing else to do. We don't really have much hobbies so we can't state a lot of them.

3. What kind of person you are describe in three words.
Beryl would have to be carefree, happy-go-lucky, and friendly. Audrey is antisocial, slightly crazy, and at times, hyper. Kimi is friendly, smart, and creative.

4. Fictional crush?
Our fictional crush will always and forever be Peeta Mellark. He is perfect, sweet, and really cute. There aren't enough words to describe how perfect he is. A million thank yous to Suzanne for creating Peeta. You deserve a lifetime supply of chocolate and pizza for this!

5. Name three things you hate.
Audrey hates the sound when the fork scratches the plate, an empty fridge, and having to do everything in a group. Beryl hates the sound of nails scratching cloth, broccoli, and lag. Kimi hates worms, lizards, and being seen-zoned.

6. Favorite book(s)/series?
Audrey doesn't really have any favorite book but if she were to have one, it would probably be Eleanor and Park or Gone Girl (depending on her mood). Beryl's would be Anna and the French Kiss and Kimi's would be Catcher in the Rye.

7. If you could live in a fictional world (Narnia, Hogwarts, Middle Earth etc) where would you live?
If we were to live in a fictional world, we would probably want to live in Hogwarts but at the time where Voldemort was not yet there. We feel like being there would be very interesting and fun. We also believe that if we were to be in the world of Harry Potter, we would be wizards, not muggles, which is why we would be in Hogwarts.

8. What are you studying/have you studied?
Kimi is studying communication arts and advertising management. Since Audrey is only in grade 6 and Beryl is only in high school, they don't really have a choice but to study English, Math, Science, and other subjects.

9. Any blogging advice?
We haven't really been blogging for long but we already love it. Our advice for aspiring bloggers out there is to never give up and be patient. You also have to be very hardworking to be able to maintain a good blog. The thing that you really have to remember is that blogging isn't easy but if you try hard enough, you'll get used to it and enjoy blogging even more.

10. Favorite movie(s)/TV show(s).
Audrey's favorite television show is Friends (but she also loves Doctor Who as much as she loves Friends). Kimi's favorite television show would have to be Doctor Who. Beryl's favorite television show is Breaking Bad (although she loves How I Met Your Mother and Friends too).

11. Your role model(s) or inspirational person(s).
We have two people that we consider to be our ultimate role model/inspirational person. Those two would have to be Ariana Grande and Ellen DeGeneres. Ariana seems so sweet and her voice is great. She doesn't brag and she has a great fashion sense. We can't find anything wrong with her. She seems perfect in every way. As for Ellen, she is just so open about her sexuality. She also shows people that being gay or lesbian isn't the biggest thing about someone. Whenever we watch her show, we find ourselves forgetting about her sexuality and we hope that she has made others realize that being part of the LGBT society isn't the biggest thing you should see in someone. Ellen is funny in a way that no one is insulted, She knows when to crack jokes and when she should be serious. She too, seems perfect. We hope that you have been inspired by them too.

Valentine's Feature: Lists & Stories - Top 5 OTPs (2)


Hey everyone! Welcome to our 2nd post in the Valentine's Feature: List & Stories! For today's post we will be talking about our.... *drumroll* OTPs!

For those who do not know what OTP means, it's short for: one true pairing. It's a couple that you ship no matter what happens, with all your life and your feels, and you don't even care if they're not canon. You will stand by this ship until it goes down (it won't because you won't let it!!!!!) and you just burst with too much feels: can be sadness happiness or just creys and tears. 

So we have a lot of couples on our list (from books, series and movies!) but decided to narrow it down to this!

WARNING: there will be spoilers!

Beryl and Audrey's Top OTPs

1. Rose and The Tenth Doctor from Doctor Who


They are just so good together! We loved the time that these two spent with each other and the way they interact. Though we knew that the too would never actually be together (at least not in parallel world), we couldn't stop ourselves from rooting for them from the very start. And when they were separated... It was just...*breaks down crying*

2. Ron and Hermione from Harry Potter


At first, we thought that Hermione would end up with Harry which is why it came as a shock when Hermione started dating Ron. We soon realized that they are a perfect match probably more perfect than a Harry-Hermione couple would be. Ron has always lifted our spirits whenever the events in the movie got too intense and Hermione is so smart that it's hard to think that she doesn't have all the answers in the world. They are different from each other yet they make such an amazing couple.


3. Barney and Robin from How I Met Your Mother


They are great together. At first, of course, we thought that Robin would end up with Ted but soon realized that she would end up with Barney. From the moment they started dating, we knew that they would be perfect for each other because of how they understood each other.

4. Rachel and Ross from Friends


They have very different interests which is why it would seem like they would make a terrible couple. In truth, they are good together because they balance each other out. They are a very cute couple who have their occasional argument just likea normal couple would. We guess it's true what they say about how opposites attract!

5. Katniss and Peeta from The Hunger Games


These two are so cute together. Even in real life, we are rooting for them though we don't actually think it'll happen. They have perfect chemistry. We love it when a Katniss and Peeta scene appears because they are just amazing. We love how, even though Katnissa and Peeta are not very much alike, they still form a perfect couple. They aren't opposites but they aren't really the same which we love too. They complement each other. Everything about them as a couple is just perfect and we can't get enough of them.

Kimi's Valentine Story
Not exactly sure if I can count this as a Valentine story because it was quite a spooky experience for me. Today's the day before Valentine's Day and I had a paranormal-ish encounter at the school CR. I went inside to the empty bathroom, did normal stuff, looked at the mirror and fixed my hair, then entered one of the cubicles to pee. When I got out, I was washing my hands, when I noticed a single piece of rose. I swear, that was not there when I first got in the comfort room and I didn't really hear anyone come in while I was inside the cubicle. It freaked me out and I left the toilet as soon as possible. Was a ghost trying to reach out to me? *shivers*

Have you had any creepy valentines experiences too? How's your Valentines so far? What are your OTPs? Do you love the couples above too? Who are your favorite couples? Leave a comment! :)

Stay tuned for our 3rd and last post tomorrow! We promise it will definitely be something bookish! ;)
