Cambron said...

Hi, Jillian! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Cornflake dreams! You are so stinkin' cute! I'm Cambron from Southern Sophisticate (http://cjsouthernsophisticate.blogspot.com) and I'm living (and loving) in Nashville, TN! I love all things blue and pink and cannot get enough shrimp or ice cream....but not together :-) I work for an attorney but don't know if I consider it a job. Sure it is work, but I think I would consider my real job, living life and trying to explore and live fully before my ticket is pulled! I'm trying to take advantage of as many opportunities as I can. If I could travel anywhere, I would go to NYC. I've never been. I am hoping to cross that off my list in the fall. In the meantime, I'll settle for a beach trip...which is always my number one favorite place to to go and relax! Thanks for all of your wonderful posts! Looking forward to more!

XoXo

You're so cute! I don't have favorites because I love a lot of things at once but I tend to wear a lot of gray, green, black & blue and I eat pizza every week.

I also really love your blog Jillian!

I'm from California, but am living in South Africa and am working and studying. I'm starting my new job (yay!) tomorrow as a Junior Consultant and I'm really excited to switch things up a little bit!

The main place that I'd like to travel now would be the middle east (once things calm down a little)... I've been to Egypt and Turkey and loved it, but would also like to visit Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria :)

Sara B said...

Hi! My name's Sara Bacon - yup, just like the delicious breakfast food. My favorite colors are hot pink and gold glitter (well maybe just for nail polish colors at least)and my favorite food is probably a sizzling steak from Ruth's Chris. I live in Portland, OR but miss my southern CA hometown, especially in the long and dreary winters here. And if I could go anywhere right now it would be some tropical destination like Fiji so I could soak up the sun and float in the heavenly water.

meghan said...

hi jillian!

i'm in tampa. i love your blog. i'm a teacher who enjoys blogging quite a lot as well. my long lost hobby is pottery, though i take a class every now and again. i would like to take calligraphy classes, i'm {slowly} learning photoshop, and i like to take pictures. my FAVORITE color is purple, although my favorite color to wear is black. i love anthropologie and jcrew, and i'm going places. :)

Clara said...

H!
I'm a long-time lurker and occasional commenter. I work at a PR firm in NYC. I was raised in NYC, but born in Spain. I love social media and finding new blogs to read!
I am also super jealous of your recent trip! :)

Ah fave colour is pink, but I'm loving turquoise and aqua too.

At the moment I'm working in a department store but I would love a more creative job.

Brunch at Saks said...

First, I love that print! Hmm..let's see: I live in Los Angeles, work in the entertainment industry, love pop culture, and love to blog!

Hope you have a fabulous day :) Hugs xx, Annemarie

Brunch at Saks said...

PS. I love reading everyone else's answers, too! It's fun getting to know everyone!

Styles 'n Cream said...

I love this post and I enjoyed reading all of the comments.

Here are some facts about me - I live in Boston, I am originally from Bulgaria. I came here all by myself at the age of 19 and put myself through collage while working 2 jobs. I have two beautiful kids and I work full time in finance. I enjoying working out and running, being outdoors. We have a beautiful house right on the beach and I love it. Favorite color - it depends on the mood - yellow, pink, coral. Favorite food - tropical fruit such as mangos, papayas, avocados ...

Ima said...

It's fun to read all the answers. So here it is some things about me.

My favorite color is purple. I'm 17. I really love Lasagna. I live in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. One of my biggest dream is to sit outside the cafe on the corner of the street in Paris while reading book and drinking coffee. It might sound cheesy or unimportant and stuffs, but I really really want it. I'm short. When I was 14, a doctor said I wouldn't get any taller than 150 cm. And yes, what that doctor said turns out to be true. Sometimes it's sad to hear people mocking me about my height, but as I live, I'm learning to just accept it. When I grow up, I wanna be a successful interior designer or architect. I want to prove that even though I am small, I can be a big person. :)

Claire Kiefer said...

Well, this is such a sweet idea and I just may have to do a similar post! First, I must say that I LOVE the "You're a Peach" print and if I weren't on financial restriction, I'd buy it right away! I'm from Georgia, so it's particularly meaningful. :) Also: I live in San Francisco, teach high schoolers who have been impacted by the prison system (usually that means their family members are incarcerated), teach poetry one night a week at San Quentin State Prison, babysit in the evenings as a second job, love traveling (just got back from spring break in NYC!), daydream about the beach all the time, and am super attached to my Leo coffee mug. I'm terribly addicted to coffee.

xoxoxo!

The Zhush said...

Really fun/clever post...I live in NY, have three great kids, happily married, love purple! Can't start my day without a giant cup of coffee..NOT a morning person!:)

Jennifer L. Duncan said...

Sorry I am just now getting to do this!!

favorite color, food, where do you live, where do you want to travel, what do you do for a living

-My favorite color is a tie between red and green.
-My favorite food is probably pasta. I love all kinds of pasta and it's just delicious! How can you not be happy while eating pasta?
-I live in Little Rock, AR. Small city, but nice. It's really just like a big suburb.
-I want to travel to England, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, Ireland, Scotland, Canada, and the rest of the the US I haven't been to yet.
-I am looking to begin my career! So if you know of anything let me know ;)
