The Cramm Award

So I’ve been silent on awards lately but here I am again with new ones. I find them worth doing since it’s my first time doing awards of this type.

The Blue Sky Tag

A huge ‘thank you’ to Sanchali for considering me for this tag here! This is my first tag so I’m very excited like an ant on the mouth of a cup of honey.

However, I’ll keep it simple so…here we go!

Answers To PoetryLover

1. Who do you admire most? 

• In everything, I admire my late mother, I don’t do hyperboles in matters like these, she was an angel and that’s how I speak of her, quite missed by a lot for all the good things she did, words are superfluous, RIP.
• Intellectually, Toni Morrison, her whole work is a darling! She amazingly inspires me.

2. What’s your favorite song? 

• I’m a music junkie! There’s a long list of songs I regard as my favorites such that mentioning one is tough, however, I’ll give you Louis Armstrong’s ‘What A Wonderful World’ and Selah Sue’s ‘This World’ since I’ve been abusing them very much lately.

3. When and how did you start blogging?

• 12 January, 2017.
• Can’t really specify how but I’ve been writing for quite some years although I’ve been only very active from 2016. I just wanted a platform which could make me want to write often so blogging was the way as it’s required for me to write often. Also, I wanted to share my writing passion so yeah…that triggered it! That’s how I’m here.

4. Funniest moment in your life? 

• This is just a grain of them, they are many! In secondary school, when English and Drama Club girls from a certain school paid us a visit (ours was a single-sex school), my friends lured me into stepping onto the stage to do a short stand-up comedy competition, they found me hilarious and confident (and hey, I am 😜)…so I went up there but all the jokes flew off the window once I got hold of the microphone! It wasn’t that I was scared but I just…zoned out lol. This failure always makes me laugh.

5. How does it feel to be in love? 

• Amazing! Fantastic! Being in love is great y’all! I have a post I want to do on this so I’ll reserve the words, hang around. Just know, it’s totally great!

My Questions To The Nominees

1. Do you have major project you’re working on? If yes, mind saying what?

4. Have you ever had any moment that surely showed you your uniqueness?
5. How do you love to sleep? Naked or dressed? (The weird/funny one)

Once again, thank you PoetryLover for the consideration! I love the nomination…and your questions? Love them all!

That’s it, really.

The Mystery Blogger Award

Quoting the words of Okoto Enigma, the creator of this great award,

“The ‘Mystery Blogger Award‘ is an award for amazing bloggers with ingenious posts. Their blog not only captivates; it inspires and motivates. They are one of the best out there and they deserve every recognition they get. This award is also for bloggers who find fun and inspiration in blogging and they do it with so much love and passion”

It was pretty shocking when I read this quotation here from The Inquisitive Writer, the wonderful blogger who nominated me for this award here. Why shocking? Because this blogger is an exceptional one, with a captivating and beautiful writing style, and thinking that I was one of the people she considered worthy of this honour made me jolly. Well deserved is her reception of this award and nominating me is just amazing.

So am I very happy? Yes, as happy as ants on the mouth of a honey bottle! With just two posts out, it’s undeniable that I’m a newbie to blogging but things keep getting better. What more motivation does a brother need if not being sure that his work is considered captivating, inspiring and motivating? Thank you The Inquisitive Writer for this recognition, I receive it appreciatively.

3 Facts About Me

1. I abhor racists, and racism as an abstract whole, highlight the abhorrence.
2. I stand for what I believe in and make sure my opinions are known, really.
3. I sometimes think only sorting things out in my head is not enough so I grab my phone, turn on the recorder, and start recording my thoughts, pretending to be conversing with someone else all the way (kinda weird or/and funny right?)

My Best Post Is…

Loving Thyself, based on the likes, comments and the viewership I got from it, being my first post.
