Thank you, Jen of Up Close & Personal with LadyTink for awarding me with the Your Blog is Fabulous award! I really appreciate it and you know, your blog is fabulous too!
Along with this award, I'm supposed to write five things I'm addicted to (which are highly predictable) and then pass this on to five other blogs so here goes!
- Reading. Even when I'm pressed for time and is bogged down by work, I will still try to read even if it's for 15 minutes. I usually carry a book with me everywhere I go. If I go to a bookstore, I will almost always come out with one or a few books. It's an addiction but I think it's a good one.
- Work. You heard right. I'm absolutely in love with my work. I look forward to Mondays and when I'm not reading or blogging or indulging in photography, I think about work.
- Blogging. Again, despite how busy I am with work (even more so now due to the new job assignment), I still want to squeeze in time to blog and to visit my blogger friends. I may have slowed down a bit, but be rest assured that I will still come and visit all of you. Your friendship is precious to me!
- Photography. I enjoy taking pictures and admiring nature's beauty. It's awesome to see the works of creation (food included!). It's also a fun way to stay in touch with friends and have fun together.
- Coffee. A cup of nice, hot, freshly brewed coffee will make me a very happy girl.
So you see, there's hardly any time to get bored. Bored? What's boredom? *GRIN*
And now, I pass this on to the following five blogs AND of course, back at you, Jen!:
- Wendy R. of Musings of a Bookish Kitty
- Nymeth of things mean a lot
- Garando of balut & natto
- Naida of the bookworm
- Rachel Y. of Heart of Rachel

"These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."
Thank you, Renee of 2 Peas in a Pod, for blessing me with this award! I'm glad we're friends and I certainly want to pass it back to you. God bless you!
I also want to give this to another eight of my new and long-time blogger friends:

- Azah of Azah Literary Thoughts
- Sheng of Anything Goes...
- Mayette of everyday reads
- Jen of Up Close & Personal with LadyTink
- Natasha of Ulat Buku in the City
- Jeanny of Startin' a New Life

Have a great weekend everybody! I'm happy and glad to have all of you as my friends!
Thank you for the award! This was a fun one to do. :-) Reading is definitely one of my addictions too. :-) Years ago, I might have said working, but not so much anymore. I do enjoy my work, but I appreciate my free time more and more these days.
