The Sunshine Blogger Award is an Award given to bloggers who are creative, positive and inspiring, while spreading "sunshine" to the blogging community.
Thank the blogger who nominated you and share their blog link.
Answer the 11 questions that you were given.
Nominate 11 new blogs to receive the award and create 11 new questions to go along with it.
So without further to-do here are the questions I was asked and my answers.
If you were magically given the abilities to do any job in the world, what would it be? The ability to actually write a novel as epic as what I imagine in my mind. The stories dance around taunting me up there but I can never do them justice on the page. I have wanted to be an author almost my entire life.
Do you believe in ghosts? When my dad died I did and then every time a loved one has passed away after this I have for a day or two fearing their ghost will visit me but in general, no.
Where do you get your ideas for blog posts? My mind? Sorry less sarcastic answer now 😊 ideas don't tend to really come from anywhere in particular at the minute they just pop to mind and I put them on a mind map app I've got the ideas usually pop up while I'm walking the dog but they aren't usually inspired by something.
What's your pet peeve? People who have their phone on speaker but still hold it up to their ear! I can't explain why it annoys me so much it just does!
What sort of blogs do you follow yourself? Because my blog is a little bit of everything I follow a little bit of everything. If you write with passion and you have a good attitude towards others in the community I follow but I think you can tell when people are in it for the wrong reason like freebies.
How long have you been blogging? Mid April 2018 – so basically a month.
How has the 'journey' been so far? Crazy I've made some really great chums so far and it's been so nice to have a safe place to go to be honest. I didn't want to get weighed down with not having many followers or views and that has been getting to me a little the past week or so and I've had moments where I've not felt quite good enough but I know I'm doing the best I can and giving as much time as I can around my 9 to 5.
Has Anything Surprised You About Blogging? Not really in all honesty, I think because I've had 2 blogs before and one of them was a pretty fair size in terms of followers and interaction I feel pretty comfortable with it especially since this is so much more relaxed for me because it's not a niche it's everything.
I wasn't sure who to nominate because I didn't know who'd done it already. If I've nominated you and you've already done it I'm sorry.
What top 3 things would you tell your teenage self?
What's the best chocolate bar?
Dinner or Tea – what do you call your evening meal (there is only one correct answer lol)?
Next Post I "Judge My Neighbour", Maybe You Should Too?
Aww, thanks for the nomination!
😊thank you! I sprained my ankle in February when I fell down the stairs then fell off a chair at work today 😂 (hurt though lol) I've got hyper mobility in my ankles but am really clumsy too evidently!!
Haha yeah that's how he reacts too, I don't know why I do it!
Haha! That is not a weird habit at all! I just asked my fiancé a weird habit I have and he said that "there are too many to count that it almost all seems normal" hahah. You are not alone girl – weird habits unite!
Congratulations on winning the sunshine blogger award! Wow, you've been blogging for a month and you're already going strong. Keep it up! Glad you're feeling comfortable with it! Thanks for sharing these answers :).
Loved the answer about the bean juice, haha!
Congrats for blogging for a month now!
Yes!!!!! Actually, anyone in public with their phone on speaker phone annoys me. I don't want to hear your conversation people!
I decided to answer your questions for your nominees because… well why not?
What pushed you to start your blog? – I needed an outlet to talk about reading & books!
Favourite animal and why? – Elephant because how fun would it be to have a pet elephant?
What's your advice for new blogs – 1 do and 1 don't – DO: Blog for yourself. DONT: Worry about followers and stats. Blogging should be for YOU first.
Aw man don't get me started on speaker phones in public, I could rant all day about it and still have more to say 😂.
Did you watch the Gilmore Girls reboot (the one with all the season changes?) Thought it was a bit of a flop.
What types of excercise helps you the most, I get the feeling you're a runner and a yoga type person for relaxing?
