I have a really bad habit of procrastinating when it comes to doing tags so I decided to do all the tags I've been given, new and overdue, in this one post. Here goes:
Page 123 Tag
This tag was given to me by the awesome lady, enc of Observation Mode quite a while ago (sorry I took so long!).Rules:
1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3.Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people, and acknowledge who tagged you.
Ok, so I haven't been doing much reading lately so I had to dig one out of my...ah...extensive collection haha. The name of the book is The Chrysalids by John Wyndham:
I told Petra in words:
'Get dressed as fast as you can. Overalls. And be very quiet.'
Very likely she had not understood the thought-shapes in detail, but she had caught their urgency. She simply nodded, and slipped back into the dark passage.
Book outline: Thousands of years after our time, the world faced something known as Tribulation, when civilization was almost completely wiped out and had to be started over, with new rules and laws. Humans beings born as “deviants”, missing an attribute that normal humans would have, is considered a blasphemy towards God.
David, a young man whose father is in charge of seeking out deviants in his community, discovered that he, along with a few other young adults, can communicate to one another through their minds and what they call “thought shapes”. For a long while they’ve hidden their secret talents, but as rules get tighter and tighter they know it’s only a matter of time until they’re discovered. (Source)
Ok, so I'm tagging anyone who wants to do this tag!

My new nail colour
Yeah, yeah...I know what you're all thinking. Potential hand model right? No? Well anyway, I just wanted to show you guys my cool bright blue nails! I haven't painted my nails in such a long time so this is a fun and refreshing change.
What colour are your nails right now?
P.S I also want to thank everyone who left lovely comments on the last post. I love you all! Muah!

I sure did think that--hand model indeed! I never wear color on my fingernails. If my nails aren't just clear, I've got a French manicure.
D, you are a dear! I am really honored to be chosen for the "Premio"; I've seen it on other blogs and thought - Wow! How do I get one of those?? Is there a solid gold trophy? (j.k.!) Really good idea on the combining tags and making it fun for everyone :)
That blue nail polish is HOT! I have a similar shade and though my nails aren't as long and luscious as yours, I quite adore wearing it... Right now my nails are sunshine yellow!
Have an inspired weekend, darling!

That color looks fab on you. Blue nail polish is not an easy color to pull off but you clearly succeed. Right now , nothing. Help me! I'm too lazy to paint my nails, I usually just do my toes if that counts.
They're pretty in a rose color right now.
Have a great one, sweetie.
nails are currently black...cant get away from that color..but every time i go to get a mani they have all these ugly drk blue colors and you have the exact color on that i want..look great though

my nails are currently HOT PINK! but not for long anymore because the polish's chipping off and i thought i was gonna remove it today anyway. anyways, i love your electric blue nails! they look really well groomed!
My nails are currently clear as I had graduation the other day. Love that blue, it's so bright!
i would love to link up! i just added you now.
Great nail colour, really cute! Funnily enough I just posted on nail colour too, mine are black cherry at the moment.
the blue looks great!
I love the nails. I have a bright orange color on mine.
that blue would be such an amazing color for my toes with my new black heels...must find!!!
love the blue! I would like to try a shade a bit lighter, but I can't stand having polish on my fingernails for some reason. I usually scratch it off while it dries. Maybe some weird disorder/phobia??
wow that's a fabulous nail color! i need to pick up some more vivacious colors!
oh and thanks for the comment :)
the flickr tag is cool..haha ive never done any of my tags..i procrastinate too much!!
blue nail polish! nicee.

Now you've totally shamed me into tag, how can I refuse a Premio Award Tag? I've avoided this for so long but this award sounds serious therefore i must do it. big kisses for thing so highly of me.

I wish I can paint & shape my nails so well! I need to try bright blue nails soon. My nails are currently in OPI's Who Are You wearing! Very awesome dark blue color which looks like purple in sunlight & has red shimmers ! I love it.

A Bientôt, Antoine
