Bloggers of the Month questions!

Hey everyone! Happy Hump Day!

I can't tell you all how thrilled I am to finally have two consecutive days off. Off as in, no school or work! Ever since this whole Starbucks thing happened, that kind of "down time" is seldom, friends.

So you can bet I'm ready to enjoy it! How? Who knows. See yesterday's post. :p

In other news, remember the Blogger of the Month thing I keep mentioning almost as much as I mention my new job or computer? Ha. Ha...

Well, I think I want to start it on Monday. Or Sunday. Whatever day us Americans start the week. According to the calendar, Sunday. But According to the order of the days of the week, it's Monday. So, I'm going to go with Monday.

This is kind of a "test month" just to see how things go. Or if I even get three people to participate.  But what I hope to happen is, I'll post a few questions, you guys will answer them either in the comments below or via e-mail here. Out of all of the participants, I will pick three people to be my Bloggers of the Month, and your pictures and links to your blogs will sit on my sidebar right underneath my little "About Me" snippet.  -------------- Like so ------------>

I will also do a blog post to pimp you guys out using the answers to your questions, and any social media links you may want to include (details can be squared away after the three are chosen). So it is kind of like sponsoring. Except it's more fun. And free, because I refuse to believe that my silly little blog is anything worth charging money over. The only requirement I have is that you follow my blog! (A different kind of payment, I guess, haha.)

I will choose the three bloggers on Friday, and will have everyone up by Monday!

Remember, you can either e-mail me, or comment here. Just make sure I have some way of getting back to you! So, if you don't want to leave an e-mail, be sure to check back for the "winners" on Friday!

  1. What a fun idea!!

    Okay, here are my answers:

    1) I've been blogging for a little over a year and a half. I started because that's what all the cool kids do these days, right? Well, and to document my early 20s.

    2) Favorite shows are How I Met Your Mother, Parenthood and Grey's Anatomy. And Friends, those guys never go out of style. Favorite movies? Love em all.

    3) I would call mine a lifestyle blog. Maybe it'll evolve into more one day :)

    4) Hmm even though I'm single, I still love Valentine's Day. A day to tell everyone how much you love them? Good in my book. Also super excited to run a 10K this month.

    5) Gosh, pretty sure it's been a while now! Definitely several months I would say!

    Love your new lay out, girl!

  2. This is a very neat idea! I also like your new design!

    1)I've been blogging about two years and I started when I stumbled across a friends blog. I thought it was neat and I decided that I wanted to keep a journal of sorts about my life and all things in between. A year and a half later, I'm a minority in the blogging world who's trying to encourage more males to do it!

    2)My favorite TV show is The Office! I really relate everyone from that show to someone from my job, it's hilarious! I also liked the show 24 and I'm a huge fan of Batman and love Christopher Nolan's trilogy.

    3)My blog has changed from it's original purpose a bit and it's now more of a lifestyle/giving blog. I've done a lot of things that some would consider outside the box with my blog like create a community page where I raise money for various charities. I also have a Hall of Fame page to recognize my dedicated followers and supporters.

    4)Well, I was looking forward to the Super Bowl! Now that is over, I'm looking forward to completing my fundraiser for the Make A Wish Foundation and starting a fundraiser for Animal Rescue!

    5)I'm not exactly sure when or how long but it's definitely been about four months or so. I think your absolutely hilarious on here sometimes and you crack me up! I also appreciate your support of my blog and linking up for the MNB Blog Hop!

  4. I love this idea!

    1. On Blogger I think this is my third year of blogging, but I've had a Livejournal blog/journal thing since 2004, I think. I was first interested in starting a blog outside of LJ because I had started reading them and thought it would be fun. I eventually decided to start one because I heard that it was good for aspiring published authors to have some sort of internet presence.

    2. Some of my favorite TV shows are Friends, Sex and the City, Veronica Mars, The OC, Hart of Dixie, I Love Lucy, The Addams Family, The Munsters... Some favorite movies are Sweet Home Alabama, The Crow, A Perfect Murder, Gossip.

    3. I was originally planning on it being more of a reading/writing related blog but last year blogging felt more stressful than fun and I realized that the blogs that I first grew to love were all lifestyle blog so I'm going to move it more in that direction.

    4. I'm taking an online writing class this month that is being taught by a writer that I really like, so I've had a lot of fun with that class so far and I'm looking forward participating in it for the rest of the month. Also, I'm decorating my "creative nook," which should be done this weekend and I can't wait to have that finished!

    5. I don't even know! On blogger, maybe a year or two? I can't remember which blog you were on when I started mine! But we've been blog buds since LJ. Remember the good old days?

  5. 1. I started June 2012 after getting married and moving to Tucson AZ full time. I had always been a reader of blogs and decided that I could get into it myself to document my new changes in life!

    2. Such a hard question! I have some of my fave tv shows here (link: http://www.lifelovelauren.com/2013/01/tuesday-topics-eight-tv-shows.html) and some of my fave movies here (link: http://www.lifelovelauren.com/2012/10/10-day-you-challenge-3-films.html)

    3. I run Life.Love.Lauren. Basically that is what it is about life, love, and me. I guess random/lifestyle?!

    4. Kevin wants to take me skiing for Valentine's day! I am hoping i can get one day off work so that I have a rare 3 day weekend to do it!!

    5. Not super long, but talking to you I feel like we have known each other for years!

  6. Love this idea!

    1. How long have you been blogging? What made you start?: As of this month, I have been blogging for 4 years. I had to start a blog for one of my education classes (back when I was an Elementary Education major) and decided to continue blogging for fun after the school year because I loved it so much!

    2. What are some of your favorite TV shows/movies?: One Tree Hill, E.R., Law & Order: SVU, Friends, Boy Meets World. And I'm obsessed with reality TV! My favorite movies are romantic comedies :)

    3. What kind of blog do you run? Lifestyle? Photography? Fashion?: I guess my blog is mostly lifestyle. I blog a lot about random things in my life or things I like. I also blog a lot about my life as a new graduate registered nurse!

    4. What are you most looking forward to in the month of February?: I was looking forward to passing my nursing licensure test, but now that I already passed (!!!), I guess I'm looking forward to relaxing for a bit and also (hopefully) finding a job soon.

    5. How long have we been blog buds?: I started reading your blog when you were still on the journey to becoming a nurse! We haven't known each other long, but I feel like we could totally be besties :)

    I've been blogging on and off for like 4 years. Before I had kids, I was much better at it. I started because it seemed to be a natural extensuion on all the crafting swaps and KAL's I was doing and who doesn't want an adult show and tell. :)

    Favorite TV, I am presently OBSESSED with Downton Abbey and 2 Broke Girls (two shows that couldn't really be any different). HYMYM and Big Bang are also on that list. Favorite movie: Amelie—It's just gorgeous, if you haven't seen it you should.

    3. What kind of blog do you run? Lifestyle? Photography? Fashion?
    Crafting and randomness

    March and hopefully some spring weather, I've over winter.
