So early on a Monday?Awesome

I got another award!Can you believe it?The really gorgeous,and fabulous mommy Ashley (from Confessions of a Housewife),gave me this award,and I'm blushing,because I still can't believe I've gotten an award from her.Thanks Ashley!


"This award acknowledges the values that every blogger shows in his/her effort to transmit cultural, ethical, literary and personal values every day."
The rules to follow are:
1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person that has granted the award and his or her blog link.
2) Pass the award to another 15 blogs that are worthy of this acknowledgment. Remember to contact each of them to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

Although I love,love,love receiving awards from my fellow bloggers,I find it really difficult to choose who to tag for the awards (I'm a very indecisive type of person,it's just who I am),so I'm tagging all my followers.You all are a melting pot of cultures and personal values,so all of you deserve this award.

If you like honesty,I suggest you go here

I started reading Evil Beet Gossip in about September 2008,and immediately took a huge liking to the celebrity gossip as told by the head writer Evil Beet (a.k.a. Sasha Pasulka).I liked it so much,that I eventually started reading Sasha's personal blog as well,and really enjoyed reading about her adventures in real life (sometimes even more than the celeb gossip!)

And then there came a time when Evil Beet decided to get a little help with the writing,because let's face it,there's a lot of gossip to write about,and it's a very competitive area to work in,because you always kind of have to try and be faster and funnier than the other gossip bloggers.

In comes Wendie Tobin,who I,immediately after being 'introduced' to on the Evil Beet Gossip site,befriended on Facebook,and makes the site even better.She is an awesome writer,and has the type of sarcastic,dry yet stomach-burstingly funny humor that I love.She talks about her family,past and everyday life on her personal blog,Well Honestly Now,and trust me,it is one of the best personal blogs out there,because she tackles all the topics with brutal (and often hilarious) honesty.

I'm rambling now,but I do have a point.I have nominated Wendie for the 2009 Blogger's Choice Awards.Please go here to vote for her,and show her some lovin'.

The hilariousness that is Dlisted

As witnessed in my previous post,I am not at all in a great mood,for explainable and some unexplainable reasons.But I just went to read a bit of Dlisted-goodness,and as always,Michael made me laugh so hard,that tears actually came down my face and snot out of my nose.His humour is sometimes a little crude,rude and just plain dirty,and that's why I love his site!

If any of you haven't yet visited Dlisted,do yourself a favor,DO IT!

My First Award!

You guys RULE!

The City,brought to you by IBBB

I was a huge 'The Hills' fan,and haven't really made an effort (ie.I'm too lazy) to get into watching the spin-off 'The City'.However,while I was very into 'The Hills',I discovered a gossip blog where the blogger did the most amazing and hysterically funny recaps of each episode.

Lucky for me IBBB kept the train rolling,and is doing weekly recaps of 'The City',so I don't even have to watch the show,I just go read his recaps.Trust me,his recaps are the funniest and most entertaining part of the show,IMO.

No 'Idea Tube' for me

Sounds weird,but I think the Idea Tube in my head,where original and interesting ideas for things to blog about,should come from (and probably does come from for most other people) is either not working,or I simply don't have one.Because seriously,I've been sitting here all day trying to think of something that I can turn into at least a sort of-interesting post.

But nothing.All I've achieved was chatting with L on Facebook,as well as drinking about half a dozen cups of tea/coffee.So all-in-all not a very productive day,to say the least.The other night as I was drifting off to dreamland,I had the most awesome idea for a blogpost,and I can remember telling myself in my head,that I should not forget this idea,and my little brain told himself to not worry,how can I possibly forget such an awesome idea?Well,obviously my brain has Alzheimers',because this kind of thing actually happens to me all the time,seeing as I am the most forgetful person I know.

So obviously I forgot the awesome idea,and yeah,that was a week ago and I haven't yet had another good idea.It's not really that I want bunches of readers on my blog or want to make money off of it,nothing like that.I just don't want people to accidentally come across my blog,and go away thinking to themselves "Geez,what the hell is this chick thinking writing on a blog,on the Internets,where other people can actually see it?She should be stopped,because she will cause widespread boredom".

I really don't want that.

The Absolutely GORGEOUS Loveology

I am constantly discovering new and really amazing blogs,especially by searching the blogrolls of the blogs I regularly visit.

So today,after looking at the blogs LoveMaegan has on her blogroll,I discovered this awesomely gorgeous photoblog,as well as thoughtblog (that's how I see it), Loveology.

Do yourself a favor,and go check it out.I don't know if everyone will like it,but this girl has an eye for everything beautiful!

Ashley Forrette Photography = Totally Awesome

I've been randomly going from blog to blog for the past couple of weeks,and although most of them are totally great (I especially love the ones where people are candid enough to share their personal lives - I guess I'm somewhat of a voyeur),the blog of Ashley Forrette,Clever Blog Name Here,is one of the best I've come across.

She is an extremely talented photographer,and with her camera in hand,it seems like she can make any subject look like a million bucks.She has mad skills of which I'm totally jealous,as well as the two most adorable dogs.Cue some more jealousy.

Check out her personal blog,or her photo blog it is just too beautiful to pass up.

Feeling very sad and insecure - again

I know that one isn't supposed to judge yourself by what other people are like or what they have.But honestly,that is the only way I do judge myself.

Starting a blog,I didn't really know how I wanted it to turn out.Should I tell all my personal details,or keep some secret?Should I put celebrity stuff in here,or just normal everyday stories about my life?I didn't even know what I wanted it to look like.And to be honest,I don't really know how to personalise my blog,and make it look really cool.I'm just not that smart and experienced with this whole blogging thing yet.

Everyday,I read and discover new personal blogs by a big variety of people,and every single time I get really green with jealousy at the wonderfully interesting lives these people live,and their amazing abillity to write a post,even about the most mundane things,and make it sound incredible.When writing talent and creativity were handed out,I was surely playing hookie or WAYYY back in the line.

But I'm going to try and not worry so much about what I think my blog should be like,or look like or how it compares to others,because at the end of the day,I'm probably the only one reading my blog,and it is just a way to keep busy and entertain myself.Hopefully I will become more creative with my blog,and make it better as time goes by.

trying to start blogging to give me something to do

i've been trying to start a blog for nearly a year now.i'm always either too busy or too lazy to actually start doing it.and then there's the fact that i don't really know what i want to blog about.because i don't want to put things on here that are too personal,because i like keeping personal things to myself.but then again,i would love to get all my feelings and thoughts out,so that they don't fester in my mind,and make me completely crazy.

so i guess i just won't name any names or places,but will talk about my daily experiences and thoughts and likes and dislikes.it might be a bit boring,but i just feel like i need a bit of a project to occupy myself.i get bored quite easily these days.

when i was younger,i could just sit around and watch tv or read a book,and that would be enough to keep me busy for hours.i didn't need someone around me,and actually preferred being alone most of the time.but after my fathers' death last year,that kind of changed.i've noticed that i constantly want company,someone to talk to,to touch whenever i want.and i am always looking for ways to not be alone.

i just moved in with my boyfriend,which is a huge step for us,and i sometimes wonder if i did it because i really want to live with him,or just that i don't want to live alone.but i must say,it's been going very well,and whereas before i would be very needy in our relationship,always getting upset when i couldn't get to see him,now that we live together,and i see him every night,i am much calmer and not as bitchy as before.which is a major improvement.

so hopefully i did it for the right reasons.
