• Answer the questions.
• Nominate 11 other bloggers and ask them 11 new questions.
• Notify the nominees about it by commenting on one of their blog posts.
• List the rules and display the sunshine blogger award logo on your site or on your post.

My answers to Libarah Questions are:

1. Whom you are close to more Mom or Dad?

At this question I don’t really have a real answer. I like to think that I am close to both of them and I like to thank to both of them for all the support and good guiding in life.

2. What is your favorite food?

I can’t say I have a favorite food. I believe in the quote: „You are what you eat” and try to build and good and balanced menu for every day of my life.

3. Who is your idol of life?

I don’t have an idol. I like to believe in myself and make the best of it.

4. What do you consider your greatest weakness to be?

I used to talk a lot. And most of the time I don’t think it through, I got messy in time and did a lot of tasks in the same time without a logic. But I am trying to get better and make from myself a really good person.

5. What does your perfect day look like?

My perfect day is that day when all the things are going good and I don’t have issues or complaints. My perfect day lingers around the loved ones and my family.

6. Do you consider yourself a good friend?

I like to consider myself the best friend, as long as the other person shares my opinion and have the same desires as I do.

7.What is your favorite thing to do?

I like to write and I like to sketch. I like to be creative and I like to be good at what I do.

8. Have you ever been heartbroken?

To that question. my dear Libarah, I can answer that in each and every day life hits you. To be heartbroken it means to be weak most of the time, and you don’t want to be weak and to seem weak. I used to be heartbroken, I had issues in love and life and I like to think that every time when I got heartbroken I learnt a lesson.

9. Would you rather be rich or famous?

I think these two are synonyms, to be rich means to be famous in a certain measure. But I guess I will chose to be HAPPY.

10. What does the meaning of  love to you?

Love is the most powerful and strong feeling in the world. If you can feel love it means you are blessed, and if you feel the love then you found the meaning of life.

11. What makes you feel most loved?

Back in the days when I was a student and worked a lot I remember that I wanted to be a part of something, to be involved and have a family. I remember I used to watch the windows of my neighbors and saw people laughing, I saw children smiles and I saw happiness. In those years all I could feel was loneliness, rush and routine. Now I feel loved when after a long day of work I came home and find my family, my husband and my cat. I feel loved when I feel the warmth of my house, and almost I can taste the love and the feeling of belonging.

Calator printre astrii virtuali

The blogger recognition award II

Hello dear writers and readers again!

So, I have to say I am really, truly sorry. Miss Samridhi nominated me for this award on 13 october, and I just saw it, it was in the spam „collection”. I am honored and deeply thankful for this nomination, and I wish I could say thanks a little bit sooner (hope Samridhi won’t mind 😀 ).

The rules of this award are:

• Thank the blogger that nominated you and give a link to their site;
• Do a post to show your award;
• Give a summary of how the blog started in the first place;
• Give two pieces of advice for any new bloggers;
• Select at least 10 bloggers for this award;
• Let each nominee know you’ve nominated them and give a link to your post.

I must say that this is the second time I have been nominated for this award. I will be sharing with you the story of how my blog started:

As I said in the last post of Recognition Award, Kate’s Blog „took life” in 2013, five years ago. To be honest I didn’t give that much thought back in those days, I just had an eager wish to write, I wanted that with all of my heart and mind. I seem amazed by the think that people could read what you write and could appreciate your effort, your talent, that what you write today wouldn’t be forgotten in years on a old piece of paper.

Now, looking back I wouldn’t give up on writing for anything in the whole world. Writing is a part of me and will always be, it’s more than a hobby and more than a desire. I just wish to learn more and more, and in time be a successful writer, I want to inspire people.

I must say that even though I have spent 5 years on this platform I feel that I’m not yet an excellent blogger and that I still want to accumulate more knowledge, I want to develop even more.

My two small pieces of advice for any new bloggers are:

1. Be yourself. Let words you write be your way of expressing YOU, as a person, as an entity; let those words define and talk about the real you. Be sincere.
2. You have to be consistent. The words you write have to have a logic and a certain length. You can’t just write two sentences and finish an article. Admit that before you write for readers you write for yourself. Before publishing a new article, ask yourself: Am I satisfied by the post? Do I enjoy the quality of it? If you like the post then the readers must love it.

My nominees for this award are:

1. Arinuckptl
2. Rcaulier
3. Shelyon
4. Pankazy
5. Abdul
6. Pryanshu
7. SirGosh
8. Ashok Waghela
9. Clara
10. Thoughts

Thank you very much, Miss Samridhi and wish you all the best in life as a blogger and as a person!

Un cadou neasteptat de la un blogger talentat/An unexpected gift from a talented blogger

Buna ziua dragilor!

In urma cu cateva zile, citeam cateva articole in cititor WordPress si unul dintre articolele care mie personal mi-au atras atentia se refera la crearea de logo-uri pentru anumite companii/firme/persoane. Aici este articolul care m-a surprins in mod placut: https://bittermarshmellos.wordpress.com/2018/09/12/graphix-some-of-my-best-logos-so-far/ .

Toate aceste sigle/logo-uri sunt create de catre o persoana minunata al carei scop este de a arata amaraciunea care sta la baza dulcetii „marsmallows-urilor”, pe care el il defineste ca adevar.

Partea buna este ca la cererea mea, acest blogger mi-a facut si mie un logo, care arata cam asa:

Consider ca toate aceste creatii realizate de  bittermarshmellos sunt demne de apreciat si isi merita respectul si cinstea cuvenita.

Doresc sa ii multumesc lui bittermarshmellos pentru faptul ca si-a rupt din timpul sau pretios pentru a realiza o adevarata creatie artistica. Apreciez efortul si amabilitatea!

English version

Hello my dear readers!

A few days ago, I read a few articles in the WordPress reader and one of the articles I personally drew my attention to is about creating logos for certain companies/people.

Here is the article that surprised me pleasantly: https://bittermarshmellos.wordpress.com/2018/09/12/graphix-some-of-my-best-logos-so-far/.

All these logos / logos are created by a wonderful person whose purpose is to show the bitterness that underlies the sweetness of „marsmallows”, which he defines as the truth.

The good part is that at my request, this blogger also made me a logo that looks like this:

I believe that all these creations made by bittermarshmellos are worthy of appreciation and deserve their respect and honor.

I would like to thank bittermarshmellos for breaking out of his precious time to achieve a true artistic creation. I appreciate your effort and kindness!

P.S. Le urez mult succes colegilor mei!

The Awesome Impact Award

Hello dear readers!

First of all I want to apologize because I replied so late at the challenge that my dear friend, Akshaya Thalasi tagged me in. I was so caught up with work and daily deeds that I postponed this post for a little bit too long.

Second I want to thank Akshaya Thalasi for the honor of nominating me. It makes me a great pleasure and great gratitude! This is the first time I was nominated for this award, The Awesome Impact Award which is made by Rad Gamer, an awesome blogger in the world of WordPress.

The rules of his AWARD are:

• Tag the person who nominated you;
• Take “The Awesome Impact Award” Picture and add that in your post;
• Talk about an incident that impacted your life in a really positive way;
• Nominate other awesome bloggers for this award.

Okay, so if the two dots are done, we should get to the third one!

The positive incident which impacted my life

I like to think that in life are more positive incidents and that we have to be thankful for them all. But, If I have been nominated for this Awesome Impact Award, I will talk about the positive incident which brought me here, on this very own blog page on which I’m writing my stories.

I remember as if it were yesterday. I was only 10 years old and I had to participate in a play at school. I was named the narrating person, and I had to read a lot of lines.

The hall was full of parents and children and teachers, I was so nervous and I just wanted to finish reading that piece of paper, once and for all.

I had an old colorful dress with folds, my hair was combed and my new shoes were too tight. I looked at the crowd and after that at the paper, everybody was waiting for me to start. I chilled myself at the thought that if I’m going to start reading everything will be over and I could go home.

I started at first, reading with a chill, quiet voice the first row from the paper, mumbling with trembled voice. I stopped looking at the whole people, and put in all my energy and vibe, focused all my emotions on that play.

Slowly, everything was becoming alive, every word written on that piece of paper made sense and my colleagues just played their role as they were told to.

With intonation and a sure voice, I managed to get to finish line but only, the end wasn’t on the paper… it were just dots. The paper wasn’t finished!

I chilled myself at the thought that everything is going to be okay and I made up an end for the play. The persons in the room were amazed and the teachers were looking questioningly at me. „HOW DID SHE?…”

I remember that day a lot of people congratulated me for the talent I had, for the patience and resilience that I showed during the play.

After that I started to wrote small compositions for school, as homework; sometimes I did my colleagues homework too. Not because they asked me to, but because I enjoyed it.

After that I made small notebooks in which I write everyday a little something.

Slowly, I discovered the world of WordPress and the blog. At first I didn’t even knew how to start or what to say. I just, put in my soul, my thoughts and my feelings.

Today I have 7 years since I use this very own Blog in the WordPress world. I can’t say I now it all, I never will… and I am learning every day. The fact which is keeping me come back and write is my passion and you, dear blogger friends and dear readers, and that will never stop. Thank you!

My nominees for the Awesome Impact Award are:

1. Delly Ivy
2. Hotul de Vise
3. Zee
4. Copila cu Zambete
5. Amartya
6. In a love world
7. Rainy shadows
8. Nelie
9. Future Doctor

In the end I want to thank Akshaya for the kind thought and for nominating me.

Liebster Award Nomination

Hello my dear ones! So, four days ago (I am truly sory for the delay), I got my first Liebster Award from csprasath . Csprasath is one of my new blog followers who writes amazing posts about travel and his other passions. To tell you the truth, I didn’t expected this and I am really surprised and happy for the nomination. Thank you, csprasath!

Here you can check out mr. csprasath’s blog: https://mytravelcsp.wordpress.com/

The Liebster Award, as I come to know now, is a symbolic award given by one blogger to another to show recognition and discover exceptional blogs.

The rules of the award are listed in this picture:

11 random facts about me… Okay, and so if the number 1 rule is done, then I must pass to the second one 😀

1. I am 22 and I am a young blogger. I am writing on this blog because I like writing since childhood. I used to write small stories for school first, then the passion of writing come ahead and I started to write my own notebooks of stories and thoughts and after that came the Kate’s blog.
2. Even though I had a huge passion on writing and wanted to follow a literature school, the destiny made me follow another path and I started studying Food Industry and became a Laboratory analyst technician and after that I have studied Control and Expertise of Food Products (CEPA), became an auditor on 9000, 14000 and 22000 field. Now I work as an engineer at a new Meat Production Company.        I got to say, I did something different than what I have dreamed of… but still I haven’t given up on writing. The need of expressing my feelings and my thoughts through writing still stays in me and I can’t quit.
3. I am married for a year and a half and I think I make a good wife (still have a lot to learn), but at least I am happy with the man I love.
4. I don’t have any children yet, but maybe in a few years I will think of being a mom.
5. I don’t like spiders and I think I have arachnofobia (I don’t know if it’s spelled right).
6. I like to cook but I hate washing dishes… is that a crime?!
7. I like to draw but I don’t do that so often… time is a cruel beast, I have written a post about that. I like to sing too, but the lack of repetition is the mother of useless things so I guess my voice isn’t what it used to be once.
8. I like to spend time with my family. I think they are the best friends alive and the time spent in their companion is won not lost.
9. As much for the sports… I haven’t tried anything too extreme. I can’t say that I am afraid (can you be afraid of something you don’t have knowledge?!) but I like basketball, ping pong, jogging and gymnastics.
10. I like to travel, to mark spots on a map and just go where the wind blows me.
11. I like to think that I am a nice person and I like to help people in need. I think that everyone needs a hand and that kindness should be priceless.

 

MY NOMINEE’S FOR LIEBSTER AWARD ARE:

Dhananjay Parkhe

Nilzeitung

Jumbled Letters

Aria Bella

Cupcake Blog

Blue Ink

Srijan

Positive Guider

Inner Voice

Jason

Aura

My questions to my nominee’s are:

• What made you start the blogging journey? What was the reason you started blogging?
• What inspires you? What is the pulse that gives life to your posts?
• Why blogging and not other passion/hobby?
• How much time are you spending on blogging? Do you think it’s won or lost time?
• Would you choose facebook over wordpress/blogging?
• What do you like to do? Describe!
• Are you into sports?
• Everyday I see people who travel all over the world and blog about it. Do you travel for the sake of traveling or for the sake of blogging?
• What is the strongest belief you have?
• If it were to change something about today’s reality, what would you change?
• A few words about the blogger, Katherine please!

The 11 questions given to me by csprasath are:

1. Why did you decide to start blogging?

The reason for blogging is deep inside of me, blogging is more than a hobby and it represents my passion, my desire which is to write.

2. How did you pick your blog name?

The blog name isn’t too fancy, it’s just a reality. It’s Kate’s blog in Kate’s World, which means my blog (Katherine’s, or Catalina’s) in my world. The name stands for the numberless rows that gather in various posts on my page.

3. Describe yourself in 3 words

Well, that is going to be hard. But I will chose: clumsy, well intentioned and lovable.

4. If you could live anywhere in the world? Where would it be?

If I could live anywhere in this big world I think I will chose still Romania. Because Romania is my home, in there are the people I love and care about, my whole entire life is in that country; with it’s advantages and disadvantages.

5. What is your favorite season? Why?

I like to think I am more of a autumn person. Maybe because I was born in september, who knows.

6. Where do you see yourself in two years?

I don’t really know. But right now I have started a journey of a responsible person, a person who works now and became a member of the society in full rights. I guess I will just let the time tell.

7. Given a chance for Time travel , What would you change when you go back in Time ?

I dont know what to say. But the word which will describe all my desires will be GOOD, I would make anything better, don’t repeat the mistakes I made. But then again, If I think again, without those mistakes, where would I be and where would I stand?

8. Who is your real-life hero?

Real life hero… do this persons really exist? I mean, look at us. We are all humans, all live the same, all making mistakes and moving on. Nobody is perfect; I don’t know if that was the part where I should mention my favorite actors or persons I admire cause I don’t. Actors are made to be perfect and flawless, there are programs who do that, and their roles in the movies are cast by chance and past.

9. What type of music do you like? Why?

I like all kinds of music. It all depends on my mood and my state of mind. Most of the time I like pop music, but then again I find myself angry and want to listen rock and Nightwish.

10. What is your thought process of heaven & hell?

I don’t really know. All I know Is that I believe in God.

11. Most challenging about Blogging

My most challenging task about blogging was when I tried to work in content writing. Actually it was more like a volunteer action, three years ago. That was when I figure it out that I am not made for advertorial writing, but for creative writing and I don’t like all the fuss and mess it’s in a content department.  That if I wanted to keep writing I should do it whenever I feel like and want it. Not when I am pushed and have deadlines and crazy colleagues.

In the end of this post, as a conclusion I think that this Liebster Award Nomination is a good way of knowing other bloggers who share the same passions as you do.

Thank you again, csprasath for choosing me and good luck my dear blog colleagues in completing!
