I am really, really sorry it took me so long to respond to this. I almost forgot it until I saw the comment made by Giancarlo. Thank you Giancarlo for the nomination. Thank you too for subscribing to my site. The thing is it took me a long time to complete my fifteen list of bloggers to nominate since some of the links in my blogroll are not at WordPress. I just thought you have to be a legitimate WordPress blogger to earn this nomination.
And here are the rules for THE VERSATILE BLOGGER AWARD:
1. Nominate 15 fellow bloggers.
2. Inform the bloggers of their nomination.
3. Share 7 random things about yourself.
4. Thank the blogger who nominated you.
5. Add the Versatile Blogger Award pic on your blog post.
Seven Random Things About Myself:
1. I am a Filipina who loves to write and dabble in photography.
2. I am a survivor. It’s the real reason why this blog exists because I am sharing my plight as a cancer survivor.
3. I love to eat green mangoes, sliced thinly with the skin on and dipped in fish sauce or sprinkled with salt.
4. I don’t drink milk. Weird isn’t it but my mom said I was breast-fed as a baby.
5. Though I love to write and take photographs, I think I am a gardener at heart. I love to feel the earth in my hands and take shots of all the blooms in our garden.
6. I collect books by Richard Paul Evans, Barbara Taylor Bradford, Robin Cook and Rosamunde Pilcher. It’s an eclectic mix of reading genre.
7. Just like most bloggers, I also dream of being published someday, and share my journey on how to cope with cancer.
And here are the bloggers I would like to nominate for this award:
1.twisteen
4. Here/Somewhere/Nowhere/Everywhere/There
10. David Bigwood’s Photography
12. Caramelhugs
13. ArtSeblis
Dreams And Escapes
