Some Awards

Hey guys. I know it's been awhile since a decent post. I'll be getting back into the swing of things now that school is off for a few weeks. =)

Today, I'll be doing a few lovely awards that I've been given, amidst my absence. 

A very big thank you in advance to everyone who nominated me. 

The first award is the Darling Doll Blog Award from the dearest Rylee. She's such a sweetie, if you somehow haven't gotten to her blog, I beg of you to go visit it. She's a dear to talk to & posts the most wonderful things. Plus, she's always open to hearing you squeal about actors. 

*cough* Lee Pace. *cough*

Here are the rules:

1. Nominate at least 5 doll blogs

2. Copy and paste these rules onto your blog post and put the award on your sidebar/award page

3. Ask 5 original, fun questions for your nominees

4. Tell your nominees why you love their blog

5. You are not obligated to do this award, but you can't take credit for it if you don't do a award post

The Questions:

1. LOTR OF POTC? (Lord of the rings or Pirates of the Caribbean)

Oy, I know you asked this just to make me spaz out Rylee. 

Mmm... LoTR shall always prevail I guess... OH BUT I LOVE POTC. 

*rocking back and forth in corner* 

2. If you could only choose one actor to follow for the rest of your life, who would you choose?

...

Rylee you came up with these questions just to kill me didn't you?

Oh... 

GAH. 

Tom. 

Tom Hiddleston.

I couldn't not watch videos of the man singing. 

3. Winter or summer?

Not particularly a fan of either but Winter.. because all the bugs are deceased. xD

4. If you had to choose between having your hair straight or curly for the rest of your life, which would you choose?

I actually used to straighten my hair; for years, but now I let it stay in it's natural curls. Less work & looks fairly pretty. =)

5. How often do you eat too much sugar?

Not often. I try to just have one treat a day. =)

Rylee was also so sweet as to nominate me for another award, an award she created herself!

GAZE UPON THE MAJESTIC PICTURE.

A very big thank you once again to Rylee doing this! Means so much to me.

I was also nominated for The Fangirl Award from Meghan over at Girly Doll Type. So sweet of her to nominate me, especially for such a fitting award. xD 

If you haven't visited her blog, do go visit HERE. 

So here are the rules:

Thank the person who nominated you with a link to their blog.

Copy and paste these rules onto your post. You must include the rules!

Answer the questions that are on this post as best you can. (YOU DO NOT MAKE MORE QUESTIONS UP YOURSELF) 

Nominate 5-10 people and link them in the post. (If you know 10 people, than please nominate 10 people.)

Go to each of the nominees blogs and comment on one of their posts to tell them that you nominated them with a link to the post.

Put the award at the bottom of the post.

Do you remember the first chapter book series that you read? If so, what was it?

Uh... probably Junie B. xD

What fandoms are you in? Ex: Divergent, Hunger Games, and Percy Jackson

I'm a Ringer, Hiddlestoner, Bloomer, Pacer, Hootowl, Firebreather, Fae, Rumrunner, Disnerd, Faller, Potterhead, Silvertongue, Stirlingite, part of the Armitage Army, member of the Hollens Family, and a Sheerio. 

And if you have no idea what one of those is, don't hesitate to ask me to clarify it. xD

What is your favorite book/series? If you can't decide, what books do you just LOVE?

You all know my first favorite so I'll go with my second favorite. I love the Heirs of Chrior series, as well as the Keeper of the Lost Cities books. =)

What movie that is based on the book do you hate the most?

Percy Jackson. It was on earlier in the year and I couldn't watch it for more than five minutes before I begged my mom to change the channel. >_<

What are some books would recommend us(bloggers/readers) to read?

Uh... varies in age.

For younger-ish people I'd recommend Keeper of the Lost Cities. It's complex in a sense but good for any age. 

For the older bloggers, Heirs of Chrior all the way.

If you were to go to jail (I am not implying that you would) and you could only take the bible and one book with you, what book would you take(you are not allowed to say "I don't know"!)

If I were to go to jail. xD Wonder what the charges would be for me... probably tackling a celebrity. xD

Anyways. Back on topic. 

I'd take The Hobbit along with me. =)

What book are you currently reading?

Currently reading the original Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

What is your favorite quote from a book or movie?

"If this is love, I do not want it. Take it away please! Why does it hurt so much?!" 

"Because it was real." 

A very big thank you again to Meghan!!! 

The last award I was nominated for was the Spotlight Award from the dear Autumn, over at One Doll Out There. She's so kind, & she runs some fabulous blogs. Do go check her out HERE.

THE RULES

○ Thank the person who nominated you!

○ Take a picture representing one of your talents. It could include a picture of a doll(s), or something that represents your talent you chose.

○ Answer the 5 questions below:

○ Nominate at least three people that you have NEVER nominated for an award before. No tag backs!!

○ Ask them the same five questions I ask you.

○ Comment on their blog letting them know that you nominated them.

○ Add the pic above on your sidebar or award page thanking the person (or people) who nominated you.

I guess my talent would have to be photography, although I'm not as amazing as others at it. =)

When did you first begin your talent?
Gosh... probably in like 2009/2010 when I first brought my mom's camera with me on a big field trip we took for school. I think that was the first time I actually relished taking pictures.

Why do you love to do this?
It's something simplistic that can do a lot. Pictures can convey anything, from a message to emotions.

Who or what inspired you to begin your talent?
Probably my mom. She's been taking pictures and doing photography for as long as I can remember.

Is your talent a performing art, visual art, or something else?
Visual art.

Do you have to practice your talent to improve it?
Indeed. My pictures from the very beginning are nothing to what I do now.


Thank you Autumn for nominating me for this award. It was a joy to do. =)


I'd nominate people, but I always feel horrible when I end up picking the same bloggers. Hopefully nobody gets upset about this, but I don't think I'll be nominating other's from now on. Sometimes I don't even want to do the awards themselves. Don't get me wrong, the fact that you all think I deserve these is heartwarming, but these things are so time-consuming. >_<

I've got a photo-story to post soon, so look for that in the next few days. =)
