Liebster Award

I am so excited since I have been nominated for the Liebster Award! This is an award given from blogger to blogger and it passes on like a chain.

I absolutely have to give a huge thanks to Shobna for nominating me. I really appreciate it and you should defintely check out her blog!

For those like me who didn't have an idea of what 'liebster' meant, here it is (directly taken from Shobna's blog):

Liebster is a German word meaning kindest, nicest, beloved, endearing and welcoming. It's a word which has a positive meaning towards people. This award is given to bloggers by other bloggers. And the most important thing about this award is to share and grow the network and encourage new Bloggers. The blogger who has been nominated should have less than 200 followers.

So how cool is that?! Very exciting for me!

1. Each person has to post 11 things about themselves. (Facts about you)
2. Answer the questions the nominator made for you and also create 11 more questions for the blogs you nominate

Questions by Shobna
1. What is the reason you start blogging?
Simply to share my passion in beauty with others since there aren't many people around me with that same interest. I though it will be nice to interact about this topic with others and meet new people in the blogging community.

I dream of traveling the world throughout my life.

3. What is favorite cartoon (all time)? Why?
I am not a fan of cartoons now, but when I was a kid I remember loving Tom & Jerry.

4. Who is your idol? Why?
Maybe this sounds a little cliche, but my idol has to be my mother. She has been through tough situations and has always managed to come through and find ways to make her life a happier one. She has taught me to see the positive perspective of every situation and to try new things in life that will help you be an overall better and happier human being. I just love her, respect her, and always looking up to her.
