Time for round three of answers to the questions you asked me (here’s part one and two).

Mandy asks: Do you always want to live in Chicago? If you had to move somewhere else, where would it be?
I love Chicago. I’ve lived here all my life but I can see myself moving eventually. Maybe somewhere warm like Florida. Or San Francisco. I would love the opportunity to live in another country too! I need to live in a city though. I’m a city girl and can’t do small town. Chicago will always have my heart though.

Lovesfool asks: What was your best blogging experience? What was your worst?
Best was definitely volunteering for BlogHer last year. It was such a great experience and I’m so happy I was able to attend. I met so many of my favorite bloggers, people I’ve been reading since I started blogging and so many new people. I can’t wait until this year’s!

As for worst, I don’t know if I have a worst blogging experience. I mean, I have the occassional negative or mean comment but nothing to serious. I think everything is a learning experience for me, bad or good.

Katelin asks:
When are you coming to California?
Soon! It’s next on my list after Florida and Vegas!
And ummm why are you so awesome?
I learned from you, duh
And seriously, how do you have time to blog in so many different places and stay sane? haha.
I’ve definitely slowed down. Right now, I’m only doing this blog and Oh How Lovely Shops. I was so busy when working with The Printed Blog that I just didn’t have time and was neglecting everything. I was stretched way to thin when it came to writing and figured it was time to go back to basics! I’d rather have a couple things I feel like I do really well at maintaining than try to do too much and have it all be lackluster.

Mishi asks: Do you have two jobs now that you work for The Printed Blog? How do you balance your work life with your blog life?
I am actually transitioning away from The Printed Blog. It was a great stepping store for me but it’s definitely time for me to move on. That’s another post though.

Princess Extraordinaire asks: How honest are you on your blog and do people in your life read it?
My sister and my boyfriend at the time read it and we are still friends so I don’t mind if he still reads it. I think my brother has the link but probably doesn’t read it often. I’m always honest on my blog though. You have to remember that what I do share is only a small part of my life but it is very much me.

Andhari asks: How do you get a lot of great ideas for your posts? How do you predict what people like to read so easily?
Most of my posts are real life experiences, silly things, questions or just random thoughts. I don’t necessarily try to predict what readers would like. If something happens that is “blog worthy”, I’ll definitely write about it but I don’t really go out of my way to write for my readers. I started this blog for me so I always try to remember that.

Only two more parts left. I’ll try not to wait so long in between them next time. I’m trying to break them up as to not bore the hell out of anyone haha

Happy Wednesday!
