Versatile Blogger Award

Monday, February 10, 2014 By 22 comments



I have been awarded with the Versatile Blogger Award this time after the last year’s Liebster, which was my first award. The feeling is always flawless and somewhere down the line, it also boosts up one’s confidence, like it has always done to me.

Thank you Karan for finding me worthy for this title! Sorry that I’m acknowledging it almost after a month. However, the ecstatic feeling and the excitement of receiving it is still alive, just like the day when you nominated me for it.

The working of the Versatile Blogger Award is very simple. All you got to do are the following things:

§  Thank the person who nominated you.
§  Share 7 things about yourself.
§  Nominate 15 other bloggers for this award.
§  Spread the news to them about it.

Easy it is, right? So, to comply with the rules, here are the 7 facts about me:

·         I’m a big time foodie, but that doesn’t alter my figure at all. Now, only a dietitian can give a reason for that. I’m done trying!

·         I keep dancing, almost all throughout the day, on random beats going inside my head. Awkward, right? I feel the same, but that doesn’t stop me, anyway! :D

·         When I like a song, I download and hear it, like 100 times. Finally get bored of it and then never touch it again. However, it stays on my playlist, resting in peace!

·         Whenever I’m stressed out, I blog. Now, it doesn’t mean that I’m receiving the honors  being distressed. Trust me, right now, I’m extremely delighted and equally hopeful to receive a plenty more awards at the time to come. Fingers crossed. :D

·         I’m a big time sports person, but the sad story is that I don’t get time to bring up the inner Messi, MSD or whoever is your favorite.

·         I’m a good singer. Or at least, I feel so. :P

·         I’m a sketcher as well. Check out a few of my sketches, here.

Now, moving on to the much awaited part, the nominations. Here are the 15 nominees (Wish I could choose 20 people) for the Versatile Blogger Award. (Drum vram bajao bhai..) :D

Liebster Incoming :D

Friday, November 22, 2013 By 16 comments



Yuhun…! Here I’m with a Liebster award nomination. Yes, you read it right! I’m not totally retarded, I actually do some stuffs. :P
Check out the nomination here. J

So, how did it happen? Is it the question in your mind? Still, read it :D

One fine day I logged into my Facebook account and found myself tagged to one of the posts by Sreesha Divakaran. She is a new found blogger-cum-friend who is also a brilliant astrologer. Astrologer because she came to know that I was craving for 1 damn nomination for the Liebster award. Ain’t greedy, everybody loves fame! :’)

Check out her world which is full of music, monsoon and fun (Sorry Sreesha, couldn’t come up with a better line :P ) here: Petrichor and Clouds J

Pardon me, almost forgot that most people aren’t aware about the Liebster award. So, for them, here is the answer:

The Liebster Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. So, what is a Liebster?  The meaning: Liebster is German and means sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, and welcome. Isn't that sweet? Blogging is about building a community and it's a great way to connect with other bloggers and help spread the word about newer bloggers/blogs.

And these are the rules to be followed:
·                     Each nominee must thank and link back the person who nominated them.
·                     Answer the 10 questions given to you by the nominator.
·                     Nominate 10 other bloggers for this award who have less than 200 followers.
·                     Create 10 questions for your nominees to answer.
·                     Let the nominees know that they have been nominated by going to their blog and notifying them.

It's completely optional to accept the award. If you want you accept it, answer the questions and nominate others. The question/answer phase is one of the most exciting parts about these awards. J

Below are the answers to Sreesha’s questions:

1. List 10 facts about yourself!
Laholbilakubat! 10 facts about myself, this will definitely include some very lame answers. Anyway, the 10 facts about me are:
i.             I’m an Engineering student who is a dreamer except for when he is sleeping. :P
ii.           I’m a social worker at K.A.S.H.T.I. We educate slum-kids on a weekly basis. Feels good J
iii.         I’m single i.e with no siblings. It answers the relationship status as well. :D
iv.          I’m a dancer and singer as well J
v.            Considering the fact that am an Engineering student, so being hungry is natural. :P
vi.          I’m committed to Internet truly, madly and deeply. :P
vii.        I’m not always sarcastic. I sleep plus attend the viva rounds as well :D
viii.       I love Blogging. See the consequence of it; we are finally in touch. Hurray :D
ix.          I’m a master of procrastination. :P
x.            I love playing football and watching cricket.

2. If you had to choose only one out of the following, which one would you   choose and why: Books, Travelling, Music, Sports, Video Games, Movies, Food.
Food. Simply because I wanna gain weight. -_-
#DilSeBolaHeEkDum :P

3. Holiday Destination: Would you choose a place with: Beaches, Lakes, Mountains, Dessert or Plain/Fields? Why?
Beaches of course, as, water has a literal connection with me. Varun- The GOD of water :D

Why to live the past when the present is so damn gorgeous? ;)

9.   If you could change one thing about yourself, what would you change?
My habit of procrastination. I hate it like anything. -_-  Any tips to overcome it?

10.       School or College? Which one is/was better? Why?
This is a difficult question as I find both of them the same. No liberty. But, then considering some points, will vote for the college. J

THE LIEBSTER AWARD

Friday, November 08, 2013 By 14 comments


I was checking some of the blogs one day and found this very enticing award being given to one of the fellow blogger. I was happy for him. But since the word ‘award’ itself is enough to raise the curiosity in any individual, so I happened to check on the details of the title which are as follows:

‘The Liebster Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. So, what is a Liebster?  The meaning: Liebster is German and means sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, and welcome. Isn't that sweet? Blogging is about building a community and it's a great way to connect with other bloggers and help spread the word about newer bloggers/blogs.’


When I finished reading the above para I thought, I’m a perfect person to be ‘nominated’, yes, at least nominated for this award. But having found no such good news till now, ‘dil pe lag gyikasam se!

Anyway, I know am being a sadist and that after putting this post on my blog, a few of the nominations will definitely pop-up in order to cheer me! But hey, I don’t want anything as a charity. For me, being worthy of something is far more important than getting a reward in return. Trust me.

I know, there are A LOT OF PEOPLE who are far more deserving, so I’m not sad at all. It’s ok, it’s fine. As it is said ‘if you deserve something, it comes to you at the right time’. J
