The Liebster Award 2013

Hey peeps! Sorry for the holiday post delays but I got some news!

Firstly, thanks to Hui Ting for presenting me the Liebster Award, an award presented by one blogger to another :) Let me give a brief introduction to what a Liebster Award is about.

A Liebster Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. So, what is a Liebster? The meaning: Liebster is German and means sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, and welcome. Isn't that sweet? Blogging is about building a community and it's a great way to connect with other bloggers and help spread the word about newer bloggers/blogs.

So here is how the award goes:

1. Each person must post 11 things about themselves.

2. Answer the questions that the tagger set for you plus create 11 questions for the people you've tagged to answer.
3. Choose 11 people and link them in your post.
4. Go to their page and tell them.
5. No tag backs!

So here's the first part :)
