2012 – Blog of the Year Award

One year back (2011) I started this blog & now I received ‘2012 – Blog of the Year Award’ from Carina & Amelia.

First of all I would like to thank both Carina (http://sonocarina.wordpress.com/) & Amelia (http://ameliaandaleon.wordpress.com/) for nominating me for this award. I am really honored.

This “Blog of the Year” award is a little different from  other awards, because here you collect stars as you get nominated for this award. I have got nominated twice and I have 2 starts 🙂

Here are the ‘rules’ for this award:

1. Select the blog(s) you think deserve the ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award

2. Write a blog post and tell us about the blog(s) you have chosen – there’s no minimum or maximum number of blogs required – and ‘present’ them with their award.

3. Please include a link back to this page ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award – http://thethoughtpalette.co.uk/our-awards/blog-of-the-year-2012-award/ and include these ‘rules’ in your post (please don’t alter the rules or the badges!)

4. Let the blog(s) you have chosen know that you have given them this award and share the ‘rules’ with them.

5. You can now also join our Facebook group – click ‘like’ on this page ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award Facebook group and then you can share your blog with an even wider audience.

6. As a winner of the award – please add a link back to the blog that presented you with the award – and then proudly display the award on your blog and sidebar … and start collecting stars…

Yes – that’s right – there are stars to collect!

Unlike other awards which you can only add to your blog once – this award is different!

When you begin you will receive the ‘1 star’ award – and every time you are given the award by another blog – you can add another star!

There are a total of 6 stars to collect.

Which means that you can check out your favorite blogs, and even if they have already been given the award by someone else, then you can still bestow it on them again and help them to reach the maximum 6 stars!

For more information check the FAQ on The Thought Palette.

The blogs that I choose for this award are..

The Versatile Blogger and Kreative Blogger awards!

This is really wonderful feeling to get 3 awards with in a week time. This two different awards are given by two amazing bloggers.

   

Versatile blogger award is given by : Takingsnaps

Versatile Blogger and Kreative Blogger awards are given by : Purplebooky

My big thanks to both I am really honored. According to the rules here I will have to write few things about myself.

• I am mad about photography, when people ask me to click their photos I always end up taking pictures of flowers, river, butterflies and sunset rather than their photos.
• I cant remember story of a movie after few  months, so every movie is like a newly released movie for me.
•  I am addicted to books ( sometimes I think I would have got better marks if I studied my academic books the way I read novels now)

Now I would like to give this awards to my fellow bloggers, who really deserve this are:
