Imagine the smile on my face when I get a Whatsapp message off Allie to tell me that we have been nominated for ANOTHER award, this time the One Lovely Blog Award. Allie kindly let me lead on this one as I was off gallivanting around the US when the last one came through. Here is the link to the last one in case you missed it: http://goo.gl/rDHigj
I would like to thank Darren from Movie Reviews 101 for nominating us, it really is so great to know people are reading what we write. If you have never read out 'About us' page, we used to write movie reviews and send them to each other via e-mail, we took the time to write them when only one other person was reading them. So to know that so many other people are now reading what we write is amazing and makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside :-) So thank you for nominating us Darren and also thank you to everyone who reads our ramblings!

7 facts about me (it didn't say they had to be interesting!):
1 - I love exploring the US and I have recently returned from a 3 week jaunt around California (with a bit of Arizona and Nevada thrown in!) and I'm already planning my next trip!
2 - I currently live with Dad, who also happens to love movies! We spend a lot of time at our local cinema (although I usually have to find another willing victim to sit through the rom-coms and the NSFD films with me!!)
3 - I recently graduation from Open University with a BA (hons) in Business Studies and I'm still amazed to say that I got a First Class Honours!!

4 - I love fancy dress, I have dressed up for parties, weekends away, tribute videos, photoshoots and countless other reasons. I even had a photobooth with various fancy dress items at my Graduation Party in July.
5 - A few years ago I did a 10,000ft Skydive with my best friend for Breakthrough Breast Cancer, we raised over £2,500 in sponsorship and had a the best day.
7 - I am lucky enough to get to travel around the world for my job, so far I have been to Dubai, Qatar, Germany, France, Indonesia, South Africa, Italy, USA and Switzerland and list just keeps growing!
Aw, thanks for the nom and very cool facts! I'm so jealous of your world travels! I've been to Italy, France, Turkey, Greece, Spain and Croatia. I want more!!!
ReplyDeleteNo problem.
DeleteIt's not all as glamorous at is seems, in some places I've seen the grand total of an airport, hotel room and exhibition centre!!
Jen
Congrats! So jealous of how many places you get to go. I crack up every time I read NSFD. Keep going strong, ladies!
ReplyDeleteThaaanks :-)
DeleteGlad to hear someone appreciates our NSFD/P/T ramblings haha!!
Jen
Very cool idea! Thanks for thinking of me! i love your list. I also go to the movies with my dad a lot. I also have this fantasy of traveling across the American West in a RV. I'd like to see the grand canyon and Yosemite.
ReplyDeleteNo problem hun :-)
DeleteI'd love to do the RV thing but I hate the driving, I've found Trek America to be perfect for me because you get to see loads but you don't have to do any of the driving, happy days! The Grand Canyon is truly epic, nothing will ever beat the first moment I saw it!
Jen
Thanks for the nom! :) Traveling for work must be so awesome, you get to visit so many places!
ReplyDeleteIt can be amazing, but can also be exhausting at the best of times :-) I love it though, it's such a great opportunity.
DeleteJen
Oh wow, thanks for the nomination. Now I have to find 15 new people to nominate and come up with some facts about myself.
ReplyDeleteNo problem John :-)
DeleteI'm sure you can come up with 7 things, I thought I would struggle but it was easier than I thought :-)
Jen
Great! Thanks ladies - now the challenge is on to post my own entry right? I don't think I'll know 15 other blogs, but I'll give it a good crack :) Love the facts Jenna!
ReplyDeleteNo problem at, yes that is your mission, should you choose to accept it. I look forward to reading your post :-)
DeleteJen
Thank you ladies for the nomination! I had fun nominating others and filling out the facts about myself. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cool things to find out. What's been the coolest fancy dress thing you've done? Congrats on your First Class Honours.
