Liebster Award!

In case you didn't know, I've never done any "blog award" posts before... I've been nominated a few times prior to this, but I never took the time to write up a post, 'cause I 1) am lazy and 2) didn't want to clutter my blog. Does that sound weird? Yeah, kinda. Oh well. You OCD peeps out there will understand. ;)

However, I decided to break my rule this time. I've seen the Liebster Award floating around quite a bit, so I was rather honored when I was nominated. ;) Also, the objectives behind the award are actually very near and dear to my own heart... getting unknown bloggers known! :D

So, with that intro, let's get into the rules...

1. Thank and Link

Thanks so much to the super awesome Ely who so graciously nominated me for the Liebster Award in the first place! You should go visit her at What Can I Say?. Yeah, like, right now. Leave a comment, say hi. All that good shtuff. ;)

3. Questions from Ely

1. winter or summer? Erhmm... both. I love summer, but you can't wear boots in summer. Or cuddle up with hot tea and a book. Or...

2. Your opinion on mayonnaise and bananas (not necessarily together, tho if that's your cup of tea...) Mayonnaise is gross, unless used in a recipe. And bananas are good -- but don't you dare try to give me a strawberry-banana milkshake. *gag*

3. how many books do you have checked out from the library right now? *Mentally counts.* Six!

4. do you prefer to be in front of the camera or behind it? Ahhhh both! I love taking pictures, but also having pictures taken...

5. If you had to permanently paint your fingernails one color for the rest of your life, what color would it be? This color.

6. do you like your days to be busy or lazy? Busy! Well, with activities that I want to do, anyway...

7. most played song on your iPod (or music collection). I honestly haven't the slightest idea... xD

8. would you say that the word 'adorkable' is the thing that sums up these two dorks? Sure. Or maybe just 'dork.' xD

9. where is the first place you want to travel to? New Zealandddddd

10. funniest childhood story? Way too many. That one time I zipped around the house on my new scooter... or climbed all the way to the top of a ginormous apple tree... or changed into a new outfit in the check out line (I was 2 xD)...

11. mountains or beach? Mountains, probably. Though I could never say no to a nice, warm, sandy beach.
