Name: Online I'm Blondie or Melaina25. It's fun to guess my real name just ask Kate who genuinely thought I might be called Randy or Tiffany (I'm neither).
Blog: Transatlantic Blonde (if you didn't know that and are here reading this wtf? Look up!)
Twitter ID: @Melaina25
Height: 5'3 1/2" (the half matters!)
Hair: Long Blonde
Eyes: Blue
Is this your first blogging conference?: No this is at least my 5th depending on what counts as a conference! Look at the photo I posted on my Meet & Greet for the original CyberMummy--how tiny was Blondie Boy!
Are you attending both days?: Yup!
What are you most looking forward to at BritMums Live 2013?: Meeting friends old and new and I spied a feminist session that I can't wait to learn more about! I think Katy Piper will be a fab keynote, too. I've sorta fallen out of love with blogging for a number of reasons and I'm hoping to have my faith in blogging and blogging community restored.
What are you wearing?: Not sure yet but the pressure is on since I'm a Best Style Finalist in the BiBs! Eek! Chances are whatever I wear I'll have flip flops in my bag to swap into because that is how I roll!
What do you hope to gain from BritMums Live 2013?:
I really want to finally make a photography session; I've managed to miss one at every conference and I have no idea how to use my camera! I'd say new friends but I don't "hope" for that I know that will happen-yay!
Tell us one thing about you that not everyone knows:
I was a child model from the age of 3-13; so the fact that I pose for every photo isn't *really* my fault! It might also be why Blondie Boy enjoys photo shoots so much :)
Are you going? If you see me grab and say "hi!" I promise I don't bite unless you're holding a Krispy Kreme and then I might take one of your fingers off :) Two years ago I spent longer than comfortable staring at Cherry Healey trying to figure out how I knew her before I later realized I only *knew* her from TV so I'm sometimes hesitant to make the first move!

I'm stupidly excited to meet you. You were one of the first blogs I started to follow and you're quite a "celebrity" to me so I apologise in advance if I giggle a lot x
You're making me blush! Promise you'll physically grab me and giggle away :)
Haha! I spent WEEKS trying to work out your name!
Look forward to meeting you! I am useless at names so I'll be ok lol x
Thank you for your comment on my BritMums Live post. It's lovely to 'meet' you virtually - hope to meet you for real at the conference :)
Love the modeling picture! Have fun ;)
If it makes you feel any better your guesses were really entertaining :)
That's what name tags are for :)
If you see me grab me!
My Mom has a big binder full of them! You can also find me in the front of "You Can Paint" "You Can Draw" etc series of children's art books :)
Can't wait to meet you - see you there!
Less than a month to go! Be sure to find me :)
Enjoy. Wish I was going. Can I give you a list of people to pass a hug on from me? ;) x
You betcha! As long as they don't mind squeezy American hugs :)
Yay! See you there! :)
Thats fab that you're going! It's my first blogger event of any sort and I'll hopefully catch you there! x
Hope to see you there. I'll fight you for the Kripsy Kremes!
Ooh excited to see you again! How cute were you (still are) as a child model! Did you enjoy it. Oliver modelled at 6 months but made me uncomfortable. I don't mind if I'm directing and in control and he's happy though! I modelled at 14 but parents never told me when castings came up as they didn't approve! hehe!
i look forward to meeting you there...hopefully, I'm not sure how I'll fit everything in to such a short time! So much to do/see and people to meet :-)
We can have a support group for sons addicted to Cars :)
Oh you'll have a great time! If you see me grab me :)
I know exactly where the nearest Krispy Kreme is to The Brewery lol!
Getting to dress up, have my hair done, I got to wear make-up and be the center of attention? I LOVED it! LOL
It will be a whirlwind but it will be great! Lots of expats will be there too :)
I'll be the one sitting next to you learning about Photography. I've never used a Soda Stream either so you will have to tell me all out them
Oooh I lurve mine! I certainly will they are awesome :)
i will try and pluck up the courage to say Hi!
No courage needed!! I'm like the least scary person ever :)
What a good idea, a certain way to make friends..take doughnuts - I'll be the one hunting down the Krispy Kreme's (or hiding them in my bag to eat later!). Either way, I'll be there with or without doughnuts!
no way are you 5'3 1/2"! I'm 5'2" and last time I saw you I swear you were way taller than me! You tricked me! ;)
Oh I don't share Krispy Kremes lol--I can tell you there is a KK store at Liverpool Station just a few blocks away from The Brewery :)
Saying 5'3 1/2" is actually probably being overly generous! I had on 2-3" heels at both conferences last year :)
Looking forward to seeing you there! Only one more sleep...
Aww your modeling photo is so cute. Can't wait to meet you. We can speak German eeek :)
