  5. Thank you so much everyone!! I feel really happy that I earned an award after such a short amount of time :) Part of me feels that I haven't written enough to earn one yet but now I will work hard to earn everyone's praise :)

    To Jessica and Despar, my pleasure, I really enjoy both your blogs and I like passing on awards, so much so that maybe I should make my own ;)
