So, I must take a break from the poetry to acknowledge Kelly Joy of Style Forever After for awarding me the Stylish Blogger Award
Kelly Joy and I initially met through Chictopia, and her sick style and way of accessorizing really has inspired me. She's such a sweet person and I feel so honored that she gave me this award. Yes, I have received an award like this before, but I am appreciative of every bit of support I get. I am truly humbled by all of the support you all have given me. I just wanted to let you guys know how truly grateful I am to have such loyal and honest followers, as well as viewers of my blog and friends who check it out.
So, without further delay, here are seven things about myself that I want you all to know.
1. I love cleaning, but I have the messiest room ever. It's actually quite upsetting because I can never find anything, and even when I do clean it, in two days it's back to a disaster, like it is now :( But at least I am honest right?
2. I can't drink regular milk, and shouldn't eat dairy products like cheese and ice cream. I can eat pizza and yogurt, but when it comes to cheese and milk, it's a major problem. I will feel like someone is ripping my stomach into shreds while throwing alcohol on my raw skin. I know, that was graphic, but imagine that pain from drinking whole milk or eating a lot of cheese.
3. I honestly don't know what I am mixed with, if I am at all. Over the years, a lot of people have asked me if I'm part Asian or if I am from the Caribbean islands. I honestly have no idea where my ancestors are from on my dad's side. He had a great grade of hair, just like our Caucasian counterparts, and he was light skinned to a certain extent (except for when he started taking a lot of medications for his health, his skin got darkened). I have heard rumors that my dad was part Trinidadian, as well as some of my family coming from Egypt (during slave times). For now, I claim being part Trinidadian until I can really pinpoint it.
4. I hate the smell of zucchini, squash, and chitterlings when they are cooked. Chitterlings smell like bowel. It is just the most disgusting smell I have ever encountered. I nearly get sick at the smell every time. Zucchini and squash just smell awkward to me and I can't stand the taste either.
5. I am extremely picky when it comes to men. I have "requirements" that I look for in my dream guy. He must be tall, dress original, either be in college and working part time or working full time, love kids, intelligent, kind hearted, can dance, loves trying new things, honest, practices chivalry, pretty physically fit/healthy, and supportive.
6. I am allergic to nickel. Like, I literally break out on my stomach from wearing jeans because the buttons are made from nickel. So, I used to have my mom put plastic buttons on my jeans (and I may have to again). It also affects me when I wear fake gold/fake silver earrings and necklaces. Usually there's some nickel used in the production of the product. it sucks, but I have an obsession with denim.
7. I have a really bad memory. I want to apologize to all of you now because I know I mention a lot fo features and honestly I end up forgetting. I am working on organizing my life so I don't forget important things.
Now, it is my time to pick 15 stylish bloggers for this award. Here are my 15 choices:
1. Hope of Simply Hope
2. Michaniya Cunningham of Accepting All Of Me
3. Giselle of Machine Wash Warm
4. Whitney of The Whitney Chronicles
5. Mckenzie Jean Lund of March Rielo
6. Kirstin of Crimson Rosella
7. Nadia of Nadia Aboulhosn
8. Annebeth of The Styling Dutchman
9. Alison Jane of Wild & Free
10. Alexa Rae of I Dress Therefore I Am
11. Kellz of Island Chic
12. Kirstin of Kirstin Marie
14. The Odd and Chic
