Blog Awards :)

Published by at 10:42 am under Links: Books and Authors

So, I’ve been given two blog awards in the last little while. I’m often really bad about blog awards because they catch me unawares while I’m really busy, but this time I thought I’d acknowledge them!

So first, I won this one for “exuding overall brilliance.” I am not sure why I won a Christian Science Award, but hey, if they feel my blog exudes brilliance, I say thanks.

I was also awarded this “The Versatile Blogger Award” by the RBC Library Blog, one of my fellow CSFF bloggers:

Like most reader’s awards, it has rules. Here they are:

1) Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them when creating the award post.

2) Share seven things about yourself.

3) Pass the award on to 15 recently discovered blogs.

4) Contact the bloggers to let them know about the award.

And here is my response:

Seven Things About Me

1. I live in two different places, five hours from each other, and ping-pong back and forth.

2. Museums make me cry.

3. Last-minute road trips or flights across the country make me feel strangely at home.

4. I might be a workaholic.

5. I only just started drinking coffee. (Yes! I’m a grown-up!)

6. I co-direct a ballet company but personally have no dance ability or experience.

7. I have a pact with myself to never accumulate more stuff than can fit neatly and comfortably into my living space. Which at the moment is one medium-sized bedroom. I have managed to keep this pact for my 27 years of life thus far.

Deserving Blogs (Not 15 . . . I Apologize . . . I Just Don’t Spend a Lot of Time Reading Blogs)

JGills’s Home of Whatever
Beck Loves Music

    Thank you so much for the award, Rachel! I certainly don’t feel deserving. You are such an inspiration to me. Thank you for your encouragement and example!

    I always find “x things about me” fascinating to read! :) #2 made me smile. Museums don’t make me cry, but they DO nonetheless have a funny effect on me – especially the Natural History Museum in Washington DC … which I’ve been to times without number.

    Congratulations on the blog awards! :)
