Let's Get Into The Itty Gritties About Me

 
Today's post will properly end up being super long knowing me. Sorry to anyone who does like long posts, but I'm posting my answers to all those FAQ which you asked in my survey. If you want to know more about me, READ THIS POST!!!

Anyhow, let's get into this before the intro takes up the whole post. Also, I'm dividing this up into different sections to help you guys out!

Personal
Where did you grow up?
I grew up in the same house I live in now in a small town in Australia. It has plenty of more than friendly people and a lovely shop to go for coffee in. It's a truly lovely and peaceful place.

What's it like to live in Australia?
I've talked about this before several times, but for those of your who don't know, Australia is a brilliant place. It's full of bush, friends and fun, but sometimes it feels like you live in the middle of nowhere. Being the world's smallest content and having no one close to you, it makes like you're different from everyone else. But hey! We're a fun lot.

One when I was talking to someone on the internet though, I said I was from Australia and they replied, "Australia? Where is that? Do you speak English there or is my computer translating everything you're saying?" I thought it was highly amusing. It just shows what an unheard of lot we are!

Could you tell us about your family?
My family...I have two older brothers names Cameron and Leo. We're really close. There being no other girls in my family, I might just have picked up a few of my brothers' interests. Like watching motor racing or looking at cars (don't you find cars interesting?).

We're a weird family, always laughing at everything each other says, even if it isn't funny, and we love to tell jokes and sing out of key (this happens a lot). But honestly, most people would be confused if they saw what our house is normally like.

What are your hobbies?
I've got a lot, so I'll have to just list the ones on the top of my head. I  like reading MASSIVE books, writing (both flash fiction and novels), blogging (duh), chatting to internet friends, music (I play piano and guitar), and so many other things. I don't really want to overload ya'll!

Favourite books, movies, music artists and TV shows?
Books: I don't really have a favourite book. But if I can change it to series, I'd pick the Percy Jacksons. Both if I can stretch the rules even more! Because, hey Percy is awesome. BTW, I took a test and it turns out I'd be daughter of Athena. *thanks Cait for getting me to do this*

Movies: I'd once again change the rules to series and I'd once again pick two. The LOTR and Hobbits. Because who doesn't like hobbits? Sometimes I even get teased that I am a hobbit.

Music artists: Taylor Swift, Lindsey Stirling, William Joseph, Peter Hollens. I've got a lot. It's not my fault! Imogen @ Gossiping with Dragons keeps introducing me to new people, OK?

TV shows: this is an easy one, Doctor Who! I go on about this all the time. An alien travelling through time and space in a police box with human companions? Come on! Tell me if that doesn't sound awesome? If you haven't watch this TV show, do so now. And remember, Eccleston is the best!

Dreams for the future?
I have so many of these. How can I even begin to tell you them all. I want to be a world famous author. I want to live on the beach. I want to breed dogs. I want to eventually get married and have kids. I want to live a good life and enjoy myself. Does that help?

Favourites colours?
Green! I love this colour so much. That's the reason my past two blog designs have been GREEN!!!

What's your bucket list?
OK this is a bit long, so would you guys like me to create a separate page on this blog of my bucket list?

How old are you?
Now you may think I'm young for some things I spout, but I'm fifteen. Sixteen in a few months. Gosh I feel so old saying that! Help! I'll be able to get my license soon!

What's your favourite/least favourite foods?
My favourite is chocolate of course. What else would it be? You can't live without chocolate.

My least favourite is egg plant or aubergine. Use either name for it. It's still horribly disgusting.

What authors do you admire?
I like this question! Rick Riordan of course, Marissa Meyer (I'm obsessed with the Lunar Chronicles), John Flanagan, Jane Austen and so many others. I could list forever, but that might make this post a bit long, so I'll leave it here.

Are you in any fandoms?
Why yes I am. Doctor Who, Taylor Swift, Percy Jackson, Lunar Chronicles, Jane Austen and many others. Like the last question. I could go on forever. Mainly they're all books though. So that should give you a clue.

How did you learn to code?
This brilliant thing called the internet. It's really useful when you want to learn something and you have no idea where to start. But trust me, I'm terrible at coding, which is why Emily @ Lynde Avenue designed my blog for me. I had no patience, but people with more could do so much better than me.

What inspires you?
Life! Everything I see and do is inspiring. Going shopping, seeing a newly engaged woman flash her ring at people, listening to the radio.

Inspiration is around every corner, just take the time to look for it and it's there.

Blogging
What inspired you to create a blog?
I wanted to share what I write! As you properly know, most of my first post are just bits of flash fiction I wrote. But after a while I got inspired to try different kinds of posts and that's how (Almost) Completely Mad became the mixed up blog it is now!

How long have you been blogging?
Around nine months? I just checked and I think it's around that time.

What's the best way to follow your blog?
You can follow anyway you like. I have some links on my FOLLOW page if you want to take a look.

Do you have any tips for new bloggers?
Write consistently. Don't write everyday one week and then nothing for the next month. Schedule your posts to spread them out and make them last.

Edit your posts so that people can enjoy reading them. Make sure they're the best you can make them before hitting that 'publish' button.

Read, comment and follow other blogs. Make yourself known. It takes a while for this to start paying off, but in the end it does.

Your blog won't be a success overnight. Don't let it get you down. Keep working at it and one day it will be realised as the jewel it is.

Remember, be yourself and have fun. Keep true to what you believe and don't do things just because they're popular if you don't agree with them. There are people like you out there. You just have to go looking.

How on earth do you have time to be as active in the blogging community as you are?
Hahaha, I'm hardly that active, but I do try to get around. I've created a sort of pattern to help me do all I have to and still have time to read and do other things.

First I publish and answer all the comments I've been given, then I go and comment back on those people's blogs, then I go to Bloglovin' and read all the posts waiting there and comment. After that all I have to do is write a post and I'm done.

Remember it doesn't all have to be done at once. Just take it slowly. Use those spare moments of your day. When you don't have anything to do, just catch up on commenting.

Also, scheduling is a life saver. It really helps give you more time.

What equipment do you use?
My brain, a battered old notebook and my computer that looks like it will fall apart at any moment. That's all.

What's your favourite thing about blogging?
Meeting people who have the same interests as me. Who don't judge and will leave me feedback on my work. Sharing my writing with people like these is truly the best thing ever!

What are your favourite blogs?
I have so many and I hate picking favourites, so instead, go to my button swap page and check out all the blogs there.

Other
What other social medias do you have?
A lot. Some that may interest people is my Facebook page, my Twitter, Instagram (I'm so bad on this), Pinterest, Goodreads and Google +.

What camera do you use?
I have an older model Nikon DSLR. Not the best, but it was cheap and I needed something.

Thank you to anyone who read this whole post and made it here. You deserve a medal.

This is also being posted to a page, so if you ever want to reread this you can!

What Comes of Me Writing

 
I've been spending a lot of time writing my novel in the past two days. And I've found that nameberry.com is a great place to go for names of unplanned characters (um, I might just use baby name sites a lot when writing). 

While on the site, I got curious as to what my name might mean (I know what you're thinking, 'she doesn't know? How?').  So I typed in 'Katarina' and guess what it came up with! Meaning of Katarina: "pure"

This is too good to be true. I'm pure apparently. Well that is interesting. You know, I really don't feel like I live up to that. It's sort of like saying I'm perfect, but anyhow, there were several other interesting facts about the name on the site.

Apparently Katarina is the Czech variation of Katherine. I didn't know that one. Interesting...

Also, Katarina is a girls name! Why didn't I know this?! Just kidding around.

nameberry.com says that (quote): The Russian version of Katherine is usually Ekaterina, but this form is used throughout Eastern Europe and may be more friendly to the American ear.

So there you go. I have no idea if you knew this or not. But that was just a load of random stuff I found about my name.

What about your name? Do you have any useless information about that?
You can tell I'm writing. All my posts are really random, but don't worry! That just makes it all the more interesting. I wonder what is coming up tomorrow...

Being Quiet Doesn't Mean You Don't Speak


I'm the person who likes to be ignored, who shies away from getting noticed. She would rather spend her whole life in her room rather than make a scene.

I'm afraid of what people will think. I've got the idea people find me annoying. I'm scared to hear people talking of me, in case of what I find out.

I'm the girl with no voice. The one who'll never be anyone or anything. The person who ends up living an ordinary life without a single excitement.

But deep down, that's all a lie, because somewhere, deep in the internet, I matter! I have a life, friends and ideas. I have fun and laughs and joy.

Because there I feel free to talk, tell the world who I am. Speak my views and show the world what we can really be.

Sometimes, it's the quiet ones that do the most. And just you remember that being popular doesn't mean your right, being famous doesn't mean you're helping the world, being quiet doesn't mean you don't speak!

Away from the blogging world, I'm considered a shy girl. I'll go out of my way to avoid people. I don't know how to socialise like everyone else. I'm afraid. But here, I don't feel like that, I feel free! And that's the best feeling on earth.

This piece sort of flowed out of me. It speaks to me as nothing I've ever written before has. I've been thinking on it for so long, wanting it to be perfect. It's by no means that, but I hope that you can at least relate to it! Please know I don't mean offence and I don't mean to tell you the world is bad. This is just how I feel and I'm just saying it in hope it will help you. Sorry this is all really sappy today, maybe I should stop talking (you can tell when I haven't had enough sleep), so see ya'll later!

Get To Know...Katarina Grace Joyce

I've only just realised that when I created this blog, I didn't put much information about me on it. I didn't expect anyone to find or read it back then, so I didn't go to much trouble about telling people about me.

But, it seems people are actually interested in hearing who I really am. So today I'm going to write a post completely devoted to ME, so, be warned!

If you're new to this blog, this post is the post for you, hopefully I will answer every question you might have about me, so let's get on with this.

Hi! I'm Kat. The teen who is more than a slight bit nutty, with an obsession for Dr Who and a love of all things nerd. What else? Oh yes I can't live without chocolate, I would die without my books and I adore movies. That's me! -This is the short summary of me.

My full name is Katarina Grace Joyce, but please just call Kat, I prefer it. You can also call me Tiny, Minnie Mouse and Munchkin (I'm sure there's more, but I can't remember them at the moment).

I'm an Australian, which means that Christmas is in summer, no snow in winter and a lot's a BBQs. Australia's a great place to live, even if it does sometimes feel like you're living on another planet from everyone else. You know I once was talking to someone on the internet and when I told them I lived in Australia, they said 'Australia? Where's Australia?'

Some of my past times involve reading copious amounts of books, writing moody pieces, playing the piano and guitar and taking crazy photos. I spend like 99.9 percent of my time thinking about Doctor Who and I might just believe I'm a hobbit.

I'm a Catholic. I've got baptized when I was three. Before then my family was atheists, but got converted after hearing about St Padre Pio's story.

I learnt to read when I was really little. I think I was only five or six when I read my first book. Since then reading has been my life. If anything comes before this blog, it's my books! I'm never seen without a book in my hand.

When I was ten I became interested in writing. I haven't yet finished a novel, but I'm working towards it. My last novel was a fantasy, but I love writing all kinds of genres.

I'm the youngest in my family with two older brothers. I've kind of grown up doing my own thing, which means a lot of mistakes and mishaps. By the way, I would love an older sister, any volunteers? It can be over emails?

Anyway, I hope this helps all you new readers or just you people who would like to know a little bit more about me.

All credit for this ideas goes to Mackenzie @ think. eat. write. read. I hope you don't mind me stealing it!

The Ins and Outs of Being Short | Can You Relate?

via
Most of you have probably worked out that I'm short. I've mentioned it in a couple of posts, but I don't think I've ever made a huge thing about it.

Today I thought I would do what I do best, ramble about being short. Because there is a lot to say about your height.

One of the biggest problems about being short is not being able to reach anything. Like when your in the super market and Dad sends you for something that's on a high shelf. It's so embarrassing.

Another problem with being short is clothing. I know all those super crafty people out there would have no problem with this, but for me, I have to buy everything I own.

The most embarrassing thing about my height is that I can fit into kid's clothes. I don't mean squeeze in, but fit it better than I do with adult clothing.

So most of what I wear is kid's cloths. Which make's for another problem. It's really hard to find grown up looking clothes in the kid's section because it is for kid's.

Now I have heard a lot of tall people moaning about there height. They say things like 'I wish I was short. It's hard being this tall'. I don't mind being short, but it kind of annoys me when 'tall' people say things like this. I have quotations marks around 'tall' because some of them are no more than average height.

There are ups and downs of every height and no one should moan about how tall they are. They should just enjoy and boast about their heights, no matter what they are.

Some people say that being short is pretty. Everyone is beautiful, but for short people, if you can't find the right clothes then you end up looking dumpy and fat. This is so easy to do. You have to be super careful when choosing what to buy. It's harder for short people to look dainty and pretty.

It's a bit hard to do sports at my height. You kind of get swamped. I never will have a career in something like soccer or ballet.

One thing that get's really annoying is when no one will believe you about your age. They say things like 'no, you can't be fifteen. You're too small' as if they know your age better than you do.

It can be a little bit funny after a while though, when people hear how old you are and take a step back in surprise.

There are a lot of other things I could list about being short, but these are the main ones I have noticed. If you have anything else to add, please do.

I'm Unique

I have been really bad recently, comments have gone without replies, emails haven't been read and all in all I have been hopeless. I'm really, really sorry. I have had a terrible tummy bug and I wasn't up to going on my computer. I am feeling a bit better today, so I caught up with everything and I'm writing another post.

via
 
I'm not outrageous.
I would rather live quietly.
But that doesn't mean I'm boring.
I have fun and interests.
I do have passions and hates.
While I might not be like everyone,
I'm still unique, I'm still me.
 
Sorry this isn't very good, but I don't have anything better for today. Please bear with me.

Latest Obsessions

I always find myself with a million obsessions and they're changing. New ones come and old ones vanish. Because of this I thought I would make a list each month of all the things I have been obsessed with:)

Without farther ado, here we go!

  • Taylor Swift's new music video, Shake it Off!
  • 5SOS, I recently heard about them from some bloggers and now I can't stop listening to their music.
  • Tim Tams. Being sugar-free I don't normally eat things like this, but recently we started buying these anyway. They're awesome!
  • Doctor Who. Ok, this isn't a new obsession. I have had it for like forever, but I just have to talk about Doctor Who as it's on again very soon!
  • Pinterest, I recently joined and I have been pinning so much. I have like a million boards and thousands of pins. Well not quite, but I really am crazy about Pinterest. If you're not on there, join:)
  • DIY. I have done any yet, but I have heaps of ideas, especially t shirt ideas that I will use in Spring.
Well those are my latest obsessions. Feel free to do this and leave a link to it in the comments:)

Fifty Facts About Me + Writing Contest

So I have two things today! First off, my friend Yasmine from the amazing blog Cloudy Dreams tagged me for the Fifty Facts About Myself. I'm not sure if I can do this, but I'm trying:)

  1. I'm sugar-free. Have been for several years. To tell the truth I only miss sugar when something nice is on offer.

  3. I heard of 5SOS until only a little while ago, now I'm hooked.
  4. I wear glasses that really aren't cool!
  5. I have braces. I got them about December last year and they made Christmas really hard, but all in all, braces aren't as bad as everyone makes out.
  6. I don't have a best friend. I used to when I was little, but we haven't been close friends in years.
  7. I like the Heist Society series. Not just because the main character is called Katarina and goes by Kat. They're really great books:)

  13. Most of my friends are over the internet. I find it hard to talk to people in real life, but on the computer, no problems.
  14. I find it hard to be me in real life! I feel like I have to hide my true interests and what I enjoy and be like everyone else. That's why I love blogging, because I can be me and no one judges.
  15. My favourite colour is green!
  16. My favourite season is winter. I like snuggling up to the heater in heaps of blankets.
  17. My full name is Katarina Grace Joyce. I wrote a post about it HERE.
  18. I have never watched or read the Hunger Games. I must admit I'm interested though. Could people tell me if it's worth it?

  20. I used to want to be a dancer, but I have never learnt!
  21. I now want to be a writer of some sort.

  33. My favourite kind of art is realistic, but I can't draw for the life of me:P
  34. I am afraid of the dark. I always sleep with my lamp on. I'm so embarrassed to have to admit this. I'm fifteen and hate the dark!

  36. I am hopeless at writing book reviews.
  37. I adore mustard and BQQ sauce on my sausages. My brothers can't stand BQQ sauce and that I mix it with mustard they think crazy:)
  38. I am a runner. Every morning after my music practise, before breakfast, I go for a run! You wouldn't believe the looks I get.

  44. I am afraid of heights. Another thing that I'm really embarrassed to admit. I can't go up very height without getting scared stiff. I don't know how to explain it. Don't judge me!
  45. I can't eat kiwi fruits. They give me rashes. I think it's an allergy.
  46. If I could go anywhere in the world I would go the Antarctic. I don't know why. I just want to go somewhere that not many people go or want to go.
  47. When I was six I cut off a huge chunk of my hair. My mum ended up having to cut my hair really short.
  48. I love classic. Some of my favourite books are classics. I would be perfectly happy to curl up with a Charles Dickens all day.
  49. I can't sing. I love music and it really annoys me that I can't sing!

Katarina Grace Joyce

via

A while ago I got a comment saying 'Heya Kat! (ooh I love your name so much)
I love your blog. :) I'll be following soon-- thank you for all the sweet comments on my blog, girl!
' from Tane on my 'About' page where I told everyone my real name (if you haven't seen Tane's blog, go check it out. She's awesome).

This comment made me really happy, more happy than I think anyone could have imagined. It was really nice.

My name has been the source of some embarrassment. I used to go by Katarina when I was little but I soon stopped.

A while ago I met this boy, he shall not be named, and we were talking and my full name (Katarina Grace Joyce) came up. When the boy heard my name, he laughed. I was really hurt, but more by what he said afterwards.

"Your name sounds like a dolls. Sort of stiff and silly," I really wish I hadn't let this get to me. After all, he's only one boy, but sadly it has hurt me a lot. I lost a lot a confidence about my name and soon started going by Kat.

So yes, my name has been a huge embarrassment. That's why I was surprised and happy when Tane left this comment.

Thanks Tane! Thanks to everyone who has read this post because it felt good telling people about this:)

Who I am!

via


I'm the girl who is never noticed.
In a room full of people, I'm never the one who catches your eyes.
I'm the one who sits at the back on the room, trying to be invisible.
I'm the one who is always out of fashion, the one who get's laughed at.
I'm the girl who no one knows who is.
The girl who has never had a boyfriend, gone to a party, had a lot of girl friends.
That's me! That's who I will always be. No matter what I do, I will never change.
