Sweet Surprise - My First Award!

I love surprises. Especially those sweet little ones, like reading through my Bloglovin' feed on a Saturday afternoon and to find out I've been awarded my first award!


The Versatile Blogger Award

The Versatile Blogger Award is an award to bloggers by bloggers. Each blogger that has been awarded, nominates up to 15 other blogs and then tells the person who nominated him 7 things about himself.

Madison (and her mom Amanda) from the sweet blog Growing up Madison nominated me, so first of all - thank you!

Now it's my turn to choose 15 other blogs to nominate. It's not an easy task, considering I have more than 200 blogs in my feed...

1.
10.
Pink When

12.
Happy in Red

13.
A Typical English Home

14.
Tada! Creations
Tada! Creations

15.
Suburbs Mama

And here are the 7 things about me:

1. I love sewing the most. No, wait, I love knitting the most. Or maybe crochet. No, definitely felting. No, no, pottery! Oh, well, I love them all!

2. I speak, read and write Chinese.

3. I hate fish. I think I only ate fish 5 times in my life...

4. When I was young, I wanted to be an actress. Then a singer. Then a lawyer. Then an interior designer. Then an anthropologist. Then a writer. Then a toy designer. Then what?

5. I love traveling to new places with new cultures, new languages and new people. I almost always prefer to go somewhere new instead of going again to a place I've been to, even if I love this place.

6. I moved 19 times since I was born. I counted.

7. One day, if possible, I want to live on a desert island with the man and the kids.

  3. Congratulations on your blogging award. That's incredible that you moved 19 times in your life. Did you ever live in Asia? I lived in Hong Kong for about 7 years with my family and absolutely loved it.

  5. Thank you for the nomination and congratulations on yours! I am soooooo impressed that you moved 19 times and are still sane. I've moved 12 and most days I have no clue as to who I am anymore. Good thing we don't have to move planets, just countries, states and cities, huh?
