A very big thank you to the people who have nominated me for two (yes TWO!) awards, and an apology for taking so long to post about it.
So back long ago in February I was nominated for The Liebster Award by The FilmCulb and The Looking Glass. Please take a look at their fab blogs. Then last month I was nominated again by RobbinsRealm, again a fantastic blog so please go and follow it now.

4. The person who has been nominated must choose eleven bloggers who have less than 200 followers to answer a set of questions.
5. When you are nominated, the only blogger you can’t nominate is the blogger who nominated you for the award.

Now the lucky 11 that I have noiminated for the Liebster Award and have to answer the same questions that I was set:
Lasers, monsters and barbarians oh, My!
Then I was also nominated for the Sunshine Blog Award way back in February by Cara at Silver Screen Seranade. Cara has a great blog and does lots of brilliant blogathons that are always fun to read.
The rules:
- Display the award on your blog.
- Announce your win with a post and thank the blogger(s) who awarded you.
- Present 10 deserving bloggers with the award – “who positively and creatively inspire others in the blogosphere.”
- Link your awardees in the post and let them know of their being awarded.
- Write 10 interesting things about you
So here are 10 “interesting” things about me
1. I’ve just started getting into Game of Thrones and I haven’t seen Season 4 yet so I’m desperately trying to avoid spoilers.
2. I do not have a Facebook or Twitter account.
3. I’m a Gemini
4. The first review I did for this blog was Friends With Kids, you can look at that review (and my terrible spelling and grammer-here).
5. The last play I saw was an adaptation of the film Fatal Attraction.
6. The last book I read was Philomenia.
7. I had to have the subtitles on during True Detective as I couldn’t understand what they were saying!
8. My favourite Shakespeare plays are A Misummer’s Night Dream, Macbeth and Much Ado About Nothing.
9. I’m loving the fifth season of Community although sad that Donald Glover has left 😦
10. I’m turning 30 this year, which I feel ok about at the moment-although I may change my mind the eve before my birthday!
Now I have to list 10 bloggers “who positively and creatively inspire others in the blogosphere.” So here are 10 of the many bloggers who have inspired me in my blogging:
1. RobbinsRealm
4. Thepic
5. Vinneh
6. The Sparodic Chronicals of a Beginner Blogger
8. Screenkicker
9. Myreelpov
So thats all for now. I hope you check out some of the blog above and start following someone new!
Thanks for the mom Lauren 🙂 and don’t worry about turning 30, it isn’t that bad. I’m 31 now so I’m actually jealous of you!
Wow 31-thats so ancient 😉 I’m glad to hear its not all downhill after 30.
Wow, thanks very much for the nomination!
And same here for True Detective – I desperately rely on subtitles too.
You’re welcome!
Glad its not just me who needed the subtitles.
Congrats on your awards and thanks so much for nomination! If you get around to doing reviews on Game Of Thrones I’d be all over that. 🙂
Thanks. I should do a Game of Thrones review, maybe once I’ve seen the fourth season then I don’t have to worry about spoilers!
Congratulations Lauren, well deserved!
Thanks very much! 🙂
Congrats and Thank you very much. I am honored 😀
Thats ok 🙂
Well done and well deserved 🙂 Cool answers. Number 3 especially ha. Can’t warm to coke zero mind.
Thanks very much! I don’t know why but I really like Coke Zero at the moment.
Congratulations on your awards! Thank you very much for the nomination for The Sunshine Blog Award. I really appreciate it.
Thats alright-thanks for nominating me as well for the Liebster Award!
