Sunshine Blogger Award

Wow weeeeeee my first EVVVEEERRRRRR blogging nomination…I’m honoured! I still regard myself as a newbie to the blogging world, so I’m glad and surprised that someone out there actually like what I’m writing about!

I was nominated by the wonderful BEXoxoBlog (sorry for the late entry!). She writes beautifully and I always enjoy reading her posts, go check out her blog!

*****The Rules*****

1. Thank the person that nominated you.
2. Answer the questions from your nominator.
3. Nominate fellow bloggers you follow.
4. Give them 10 questions to answer.

My Questions:

1. Are you a coffee drinker or tea drinker? I’m DEFINITELY a tea drinker, a builders tea with one spoon of sugar and a splash of milk 🙂 . However, I always find myself fighting against the time in the mornings before work. Consequently, I find myself leaving half of mug of tea yet to drink (too sad)! So now I drink coffee during the week (because it cools down quicker) then I can enjoy my tea in the weekends.
2. Where is one place in the world that you want to visit? Hmmm….tricky one as I do like to go travelling. I’m going to Greece, Norway and Vietnam by the end of this year which I will blog about (stay tuned!). Ultimately, I would LOVE to visit Japan especially during the opening ceremony of Olympics 2020 (I know it’ll be EPIC and probably be even better than Beijing 2008). I’ve been before when I was a little kid with my family as it doesn’t count as like all other kids, I didn’t appreciate it. I want to try out their national dish, sushi!!! I find it incredibly fascinating how it’s the traditional culture meets the futuristic culture.
3. What is the most adventurous thing you’ve ever done? It HAS to be skydiving. I did this when I was at university for charity. It was exhilarating and definitely an adrenaline rush! I wasn’t even nervous until I was dangling off the aircraft, I looked down at 13,000 feet and thought: FUCCCCCCCCCCK, well there’s no turning back now!

   

   Yep that’s me thinking I was Superman!

4. What has been your favorite vacation destination and why? It’ll be when I was travelling around California. Visiting LA, San Diego, Lake Havasu, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Yosemite NP, San Francisco, Santa Barbara.

   

   Hiking at Grand Canyon

5. Do you believe in love at first sight? Yes I do!!!
6. What’s your favorite movie? Shawshank Redemption is up there along with Wolf Of Wall Street and the Blind Side.
7. Do you collect anything? Hmmm…countries? Sounds strange but I have a Scratch Map and basically you scratch off all the countries you visited and reveals a bright colour underneath it! Here’s mine…
8. What is something that you are looking forward to at this very moment? I will be going to Greece next Sunday (25th September), whoop whoop!
9. Out of your posts, which one is your favorite? Why? It’ll be when I was helping at the Paralympics 2012. I really enjoyed writing it as it brought back great memories and reminded me how I played a part to this successful event.
10. What is one of your pet peeves? People who doesn’t have manners. I always say manners doesn’t cost a thing so use it!

So now I’ve got to nominate 10 bloggers, I apologise if you’ve already been nominated for this!!!
