Oh, look! Another shiny award!

Thanks to the super sweet and funny Renae Mercado and Kelly Dexter, I now have another award!!



Isn't it pretty? Thanks, ladies!

Okay, here are the rules I must follow:

1) Thank and link back to the person who gave you this award.
2) Share 7 things about yourself.
3) Pass the award along to 15 bloggers who you have recently discovered and who you think are fantastic for whatever reason! (In no particular order...)
4) Contact the bloggers you've picked and let them know about the award.

Seven things about myself:

1) I'm about to start my Master's in Literature, and I'm scared out of my wits.

2) I'm obsessed with Doritos and ice cream. (If you aren't, please help me!)

3) The movie theater is my best friend. Especially during the summer.

4) I'm allergic to soap operas, regardless of James Franco's recurring role in one.

5) Puppies are my favorite happy medicine.

6) There isn't a Tuesday when I don't check if the new free song on iTunes is worth it. What can I say? I like good freebies.

7) You're all probably sick of reading this, but my #1 goal in life is to make out with Jensen Ackles. :D


And now, here are the blogging buddies I've chosen to tag:


Congrats to all of you!!

P. S. I have a penmanship meme coming soon. I'll be uploading it right after I manage to tame my wild scanner :D And please come back tomorrow for Fess Up Friday!!!

    Congrats on the award! And thanks for the pass. :)

    I'm sure Doritos and ice cream will get you through your Masters. They aren't nearly as scary once you start.

    Good luck!

    Congrats on the award! You deserve it! Good luck with your Masters. You can do it! And about the Doritos, they vanish into thin air at my house. Can't explain it!

    Congrats on the great award. I keep forgetting it comes with homework. Groan.

    I'll be posting my penmanship meme next week. Just wait till you see my dust bunny. Super impressive. In fact, I'm going to start adding it to my queries. ;)

    Starting any Master's degree program is daunting. But you have wit, intelligence, humor, and determination. You'll do just fine.

    I got my Master's in Psychology by the way, Roland

    Thanks, Roland!! So happy you stopped by!

    And DL, just to clarify: I eat my Doritos and ice cream separately. But, hey, I might try to eat them together somnetime :D

    Thank you all for giving me some blogging love!!!

    Congratulations and thank you so much so including me in this! I feel so special, and very unworthy. I've also given you another award over here on my other blog (also the one I happen to be commenting on)! You and your awesome deserve it!

    P.S. If you've never tried eating Doritos with Hershey's chocolate you don't know what you're missing. Sounds gross, but trust me if you're obsessed now you'll never be able to put them down after that!

    Thanks so much for the award, Amparo! :D

    The idea of getting a Master's degree scares me too... Right now I just intend on getting a Bachelor's, but I may change my mind.
