Florrie (the adorable chick that she is) nominated me as one of her choices for the Honest Scrap Award. I am very excited for this because it's my first award like this but also because out of so many wonderful bloggers that she could have chosen, she chose me. Perhaps I just have it written in my DNA code that I must always feel undeserving. Thank you, Florrie!

The guidelines are:
1. Say Thank You and give a link to the presenter of the award
2. Share "10 Honest Things" about myself
3. Present this award to 7 others whose blogs I find brilliant in content and/or design, or those who have encouraged me.
4. Tell those 7 people that they have been awarded HONEST SCRAP and inform them of these guidelines.


1. I'm the person that sticks up for the underdog, stands up to bullies, and tries to fight for what is right. It's not something I brag about, but rather something that I'm proud about. It took years of teasing in school and one day I just realized that I was over being the victim.

2. I will wear shirts more than once when they are my favorites or I'm just around family. When going to events or out with friends, I won't wear the same thing twice as far as shirts or dresses go. Yes, I'm vain that way. I just enjoy the feeling of wearing something new!

3. Music is very important to me. I write it, I play instruments, I sing it, and I dance to it. I turn to it for everything. It helps me get everything out and just feel better in general.

4. I have phone anxiety. I have anxiety issues regardless, but most people don't know about my fear of phones. I absolutely hate having to make phone calls and pick up the phone. I can't even stand having to order dinner over the phone. Online ordering was the best thing to happen to me.I honestly have to give myself a pep talk before calling most of the time.

5. My favorite person EVER in my life was my aunt. Oddly enough, I called her Sister because that was her nickname that she got at an early age. I got my morals and faith from her. I never learned a negative thing about her or from her. She had a huge hand in raising me and all of my good childhood memories include her. Nobody is perfect, but she sure was close to it.

6. I'm a huge Broadway addict. I know almost every show tune and what show they are from...and every lyric. I love seeing them in person and being in that whole atmosphere. For a long time, it was a dream of mine to be in a Broadway show.

7. My main goal right now is to get one of my photographs on a postcard. I want to get a degree in photography so that I may freelance with it.

8. I try to keep up with mostly every person I've known. I even still talk to my fourth grade teacher! Life is all about lost contacts and I think that it can be averted. People come into my life for a reason, so I try to keep the good ones in it.

9. I've been to more visitations and funerals than birthdays that I have celebrated. Meaning I'm 25 now, and I've been to more than 25 combined visitations and funerals. Yep. :(

10. I am spoiled rotten. I'm the first to admit it, so if you think you're insulting me by telling me that...you're not. If you're spending within your budget, I don't see anything wrong with being spoiled. If I want that Marc Jacobs handbag enough, I'll give up something else that I like long enough to get enough money to get it. Nothing wrong with wanting the finer things in life! I'm spoiled in other ways also, of course.
