The lovely aki from 7% Solution just awarded me the Stylish Blogger Award!!  And even though I did win this award previously, I'm so very honored that she chose me again for this award.

Apparently, there are rules for this award (that maybe I missed last time?):

• Thank and link back to the person who gave you the award. 
• Share 7 things about yourself. 
• Award to recently discovered bloggers. 
• Contact these bloggers and tell them about this award.  

So here we go.  Seven things about me:

1. About 4 years ago, I got really into sewing.  In fact, I sewed the skirt that you're seeing here.  It was my first successful piece of clothing made from a pattern and the first skirt I owned that had no waist gap. Unfortunately I haven't touched my sewing machine in years now...
2. I lived without a TV for about 8 years -- sophomore year of college all the way until 2 years ago when I moved in with Adrian (the bf).  It started out just being cheap and not wanting to spend money on a tv, then I just kinda got used to it.  Needless to say, I ended up watching a lot of YouTube.  You're wondering how I found all those beauty gurus?  Now you know. 
3. I had 2 dogs growing up -- a Cocker Spaniel and a German Shepherd.  I would've sworn to you that I was a dog person.  Then, I graduated college and moved into a small apartment where dogs weren't allowed, so I adopted a cat.  Now, I live with 2 cats and would call myself a cat lady.  Maybe I'm just an animal lover?  
4. At least half the white socks I own are from Main Event Entertainment.  You know, the free ones you get when you buy a game of bowling?  They're actually one of the few socks that fit me and aren't kids socks. 
5. Adrian and I had a chopstick-dexterity contest a couple years ago.  The contest was who could pick up the most grains of rice using chopsticks in 2 minutes.  I lost 12 to 3.  Can I still call myself an Asian?
6. I learned how to drive stick shift when I was 16, and I drove an 1976 Mazda Sundowner pick-up truck.  That truck was seriously a piece, but I've always loved driving manual transmission cars since then.  When I was able to buy my first car after college, I chose manual transmission again.  Let me tell you, driving stick picks up guys like you wouldn't believe! 
7. Um, I'm all out of ideas.  But let's talk movies.  I hate scary movies.  I still remember the first kinda scary movie that I ever watched:  Terminator 2.  I had to sleep in my parents' room for a week cause I was so scared.  And now I'm too scared to even watch Black Swan...  I'm such a wuss. 

And now, I would like to tag the following 2 people:  Ramsey of Love, Ramsey and Kristine of Kristine Or Polly.  I just recently discovered these 2 blogs but they're my new daily must reads!

Hope you guys are having a great weekend!
