F is for...


Why a Fairy?

I think that it would be nice to be able to grant peoples wishes, but isn't there always a catch? I could spin around a lot till I got dizzy and no-one would think it was strange. I would have my very own wand and flowy dresses and lots of glitter. I would also get a special outfit for when I am going on an adventure. Oh my word, I would have wings! and be able to fly, fly, fly!!!!

Why I would be good at this job.

I can spin around for quite a long time without getting dizzy. 
I like to spend time in the garden.
I smile a lot.
I have twinkly eyes.
I’m generous.
I’m a giggler.
I love going on adventures.

Why I wouldn't be good at this job.

I could get too dizzy and fall over a lot and end up earning a reputation as the fairy who is always falling over. 
I don't like mushrooms and I think fairies live in mushroom circles...
I don’t have the squeakiest voice.
I don’t like heights or large buildings, so I am thinking flying wouldn’t be great and being tiny would make everything else look like large buildings. 


If you could be a make-believe creature (are fairies creatures?), what would you be and why? Can you think of any other characteristics a fairy has? Have you got a favourite fairy story or book with characters who are fairies?

It has also occurred to me that F is for Flower - which I had been using as my gravatar and appears when I follow someones blog, but I had been using a different image with my comments. SO to make it obvious, if you see this flower in your followers or your comments it me!

  1. OK...this is my favorite so far! Being an Asper kid and not liking people...where most kids have an imaginary friend, I had an imaginary fairy colony! I spent a lot of time in the bathroom as a kid because that's where they lived! I was probably the only kid ever who LOVED bath time and probably took more than one a day, but most times you'd just find me sitting in the floor talking to them. I don't remember when they left me though.

    But as far as me being a fairy, I'm more like Vidia (she's a "pal" - I use the term loosely - of Tinkerbell's), so a good fairy I would not make!

    Thanks Kate for bringing up one of the few wonderful memories of my childhood!!

    Oh, and BTW, I can't stand schrooms either! People shouldn't eat fungus!!

  2. I would love to be a fairy! Or so I thought, but then I realised I'd have to live out in the garden, or, worse still, the woods. So perhaps not. I'll just continue to love any fancy dress opportunity I get to put on my wings!

  3. Hey Keebs, you surprise me! I never had you down as a Tinkerbell fan (but I guess it is Disney ;) )

    thepinkrachael: YES!!! You do know its easter this weekend, so get the wings out! The woods are pretty scary, especially with all these werewolves and vampires that keep hanging out in them!!!

    I may watch too much TV :)

    Thanks for stopping by.

  6. I've always been drawn to the darker stories about the fairies - less glitter and more violence. But if I could be any creature, I think I'd be a unicorn - so elegant and graceful.

    Wishing you continued success with the A to Z challenge,

  7. Aren't fairies a bit naughty?

    Hmmm - probably not a fairy for me. Too tiny. But it might be fun to be Pegasus for a day.

  9. Sign me up! I'd be a fairy in a heartbeat. Dizzy or not. :)

  10. Yes *clapping hands* I'd love to be a fairy. Just having a magical wand, dancing until dawn, singing, trapping the unsuspecting on those fairy rings (ok now that was just mean)..but the above, would be worth it.

  13. Great theme for the A-Z Challenge! Do fairy's wear tiaras? If they do, I am so in! LOL!

  14. When I was younger I loved the idea of being tiny enough to see grass as a forest. All those illustrations of toadstools and leaf boats...I was all about fairies. :) I think I would be one of Tinkerbell's more serious friends, though.

  15. "I don’t like heights or large buildings, so I am thinking flying wouldn’t be great and being tiny would make everything else look like large buildings."

    I can totally see you flying very close to the ground. The only Faeire in the *shallow end*.

  16. Hey all,

    Lynn: lol! I don't think the spinning around is compulsory! :)

    Cat: Yes of course - except for adventuring.

    iliadfan: I loved that too, the idea that there were worlds within this world.

    Sallyallbright: haha - yes, that's me and probably still holding on to the side :)
