award!!

HEY EVERYONE!!
Not going to lie I've been having a rough week emotionally with my friends and a couple other things, which is totally a great way to end my break with classes starting Tuesday....

However! I won an award!! Two AMAZING FABULOUS girls gave me an award!
FictionFlaire and Jessica . They themselves have absolutely beautiful blogs themselves! I want to take a second to thank them both. FictionFlaire if you have not already checked it out, is an aspiring writing sharing her sci-fi paranormal story that will have you hanging on every word! Jessica, I have mentioned her before, her blog itself is so pretty and her charm shines through every word!

There are 4 duties to perform to receive this award:
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award
2. Share 7 things about yourself (since I was nominated twice I'll have 14 or close to 14)
3. Award 10 recently discovered great bloggers (since I don't know when people started, I might be breaking this rule! Sorry!!)
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award!

So, a random 14 things about myself

1) I am five feet and two inches
2) When I write I try to cover all sorts of family situations to be fair and get a different feel
3) I have a 11 year old Golden Retriever named Duchess and a 20lbs Ragdoll cat named Maximus after the Gladiator movie
4) I have a pretty big sweet tooth...
5) I am in love with the beach!!
6) I drive a green Nissan altima that I named Elphie after the character in Wicked!
7) I have a weird problem with using pencils, unless I feel the need to draw (what I call drawling...)
8) I've only had one boyfriend, Ryan, he and I had a long distance relationship for a year and 2 months. Only one month wasn't distance till he moved. He and I still talk, it's kind of different?
9) I'm the oldest of 5 grandchildren, I refer to my little cousins as itty boppers they are 9 years old, 3 years old, and 1 and a half.
10) I feel like school is eating my very soul...Those who know what is going on with Jersey and their education system will wonder why I'm killing my should for this career...
11) I have a sister who is almost 15 years old, she and I drive each other crazy
12) I think Chocolate Mint Cookie Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream is seriously epic!!
13) I've been helping a close friend battle anorexia
14) Okay last one I should make this a good one! Despite the fact that 90-something% of my writing was written when I was in High School, and my views on the subject, I did not believe in real love
