Blogger Appreciation Award

Recently I was awarded the Blogger Appreciation Award from Traci at  http://www.drinkcitra.com.  Thank you Traci!



The rules of the Award:
1.  Thank the person who gave you the award with their blog link on your post.
2.  Answer the following 4 questions.
3.  Award the Blogger Appreciation Award to as many readers/commenters/supporters/followers as you’d like.
4.  Let the blogger know you've just awarded them (by leaving a comment, a tweet, an email, etc.)

The questions:
1.  How long have you been blogging?
2.  What are 1-2 reasons why you started blogging.
3.  What types of blogs do you like to follow/read?
4.  What is 1 thing you would like to improve on as a blogger/on your blog?


So my answers are as follows: -

  • I've been blogging since last January, however I stopped after about 4 to 5 months and then just lost interest.  As part of new year resolution I chose to start again so have been blogging since.  I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported so far, it means a lot for your support
  • I like to blog as I like to share my thoughts on things more through via pictures rather than text.
  • I like to follow blogs that talk about fashion, beauty, photography, and in particular kawaii things
  • I would like to change the style of my blog.....any feedback is more than welcome
I would like to award this award to the following blogs: -
Sorry I couldn't award it to everyone as then the blog post would be too long!

The Big Egg Hunt Part 6 - The Final Part

So last weekend being Easter Weekend, myself and Sin chose to go out to Covent Garden to see all the eggs together, after all we did miss some!

Here are some of my favourite pictures of the day.....






Even found the Egg Hospital....these were for eggs that needed some TLC....some people had chosen to damage the eggs, which is a shame.


So thats the end of The Big Egg Hunt, it was really fun and lovely to see these eggs, I wonder what the next thing will be.

Disposable Iphone App


Disposable is one of my many photography apps on my iphone.  I came across this back in January but didn't use it until a month ago.  The idea is that its a disposable camera with a twist that a number of people can take pictures of it if they are invited to share the camera with you.  Once all photos have been taken then thats when you can view the pictures.

So I used two cameras with this application, joined by my husband Sin, my brother Yik and his girlfriend Amy.  Our first camera theme was Spring.



We then created another one, and this time the theme was that we had to take a picture on the hour from 9am.....as you can see for some of mine, I did forget!


I do like surprises so I like getting to see the photos at the end.  If you have this and want to share a camera with me, let me know
