Just a drop in the ocean

Ever had a feeling of deja vu? Well, maybe you’ll get this feeling if you decide to continue reading.  Below is the final version (not the Draft I inadvertently sent out last week!)

It is with excitement that I graciously accept the Awesome Blog Content (ABC) blogger award, kindly bestowed upon me by Crubin from The Write Transition.  As per the rules, I need to describe myself using every letter in the alphabet, then pass on the award onto at least another 6 bloggers.

1. A – Angelic
2. B – Beautiful
3. C – Caring
4. D – Don’t believe all that you read, especially the above
5. E – Engineer – mechanical discipline
6. F – Fascinated with all things scientific, weird and unusual
7. G – Grateful to receive this award
8. H – Half cup full – most of the time
9. I – Industrial design degree. Prior to getting my engineering degree, I got one in Industrial design. I think this is why people see me as a frustrated engineer – always trying to address form (and colour) prior to function.
10. J – Just outside the box in my cartooning, as in, not too far outside
11. K – Klever (hey, I’m en engineer, I can’t spell)
12. L – Like receiving lots of ‘likes’ on my blog and Facebook page. Thanks for your support!
13. M – Mum of 2 kids
14. N – Never give up
15. O – Over 30, just 😉
16. P – Pink, my favourite colour at the moment
17. Q – Quite difficult to think of anything else to say, but here goes
18. R – Really good at not giving up and persevering not matter what
19. S – Snails. As a child my sister caught me ‘eating’ a garden snail. In my defence, I still protest to this day that her evidence is purely circumstantial. Yes, I was sitting amongst cluster of garden snails. Yes, I had one in my hand. Yes, there was a slight slobbery gleam drooling from my mouth. But No, no one saw a snail in my mouth.
20. T – Terrible singer
21. U – Urban city slicker
22. V – Very grateful that there are only 4 more letters left in the alphabet
23. W – Walking the dogs with the kids is one of the great enjoyments in my life
24. X – X-rayed twice as a child for fractured bones
25. Y – Yellow makes me look sickly
26. Z – Zumba. I love taking Zumba classes and dancing around like a girlie.

And as part of the tradition, I now bestow upon the following 6 bloggers the ABC blogger award.

1. The Blog of Funny names where unusual names are celebrated for their uniqueness
2. Wrong Hands, a delightful one panel cartoon blog
3. GD Konstantine’s blog capturing thoughts, photos, reviews and links
4. CJDelling a German Comedian with a cartoon blog. You would think this an oxymoron, but I saw her last Sunday perform live and she was great
5. Therapy Tales is a cartoon blog about ‘avoiding eye contact’. You’ll get the tagline, when you see the pictures.
6. The Owl and the Pussy Cat is a cartoon series about the beloved animals from the famous Edward Lear poem. Unlike the poem, they are 21st century and get up to all sorts of modern-day antics
