bestnewcomer200Woke up this morning to some fab news.   My blog has been entered for the Best Newcomer award and voting is now open on GreatDatingblogs.com !

 

How does the voting work ?

Only 3 sites will make it into the finals of each category – so every vote counts.    There’s a prize for everyone who comes 1st in their categories.  I promise to share my prize if I win !

Please drop by http://www.greatdatingblogs.com/best-newcomer-round-one-2013/ and vote for my blog ‘Dazed Reflection’

Voting ends at midnight on 30th June 2013.

 

So could I request all of my friends in Bloggerville to kindly vote for my blog.  Pretty please with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles on top.

Imagine the surprise I had when I received a tweet a few days ago stating that I should put myself forward for the Great Dating Blogs Award 2013.

Me ? My blog ?  That’s huge news !!

Honestly, I’m aware that mine is a very sporadic blog and yes, I do have enough posts related to dating / relationships that could somehow put me up as a nominee … but to have someone else tell you to do it – it’s a bit of a big deal and I’m super excited about it !

 

So I did what any good blogger would do – I went and registered my blog for the Best Newcomer nomination.

 

Now it’s time to wait and see if I get short listed.

I got BLING baby !!! I haven’t been my usual Diva self the past few weeks and it’s about time I share the Bling !

My BBBFF The Fab Bitch over at Splintered Town had awarded my dazed reflections with a very pink diamond bling … because every blog needs a little bling ! The world would be a horrid place if we couldn’t bling our blogs !

I’ve been meaning to thank my Fab Bitch friend for a while now but with all that has happened this  past month – I just haven’t gotten to really putting myself or my very dazed thoughts into words … I know I should have – because really you guys – my neighbours are the very best – and I could have done with some TLC .. but I’m a Diva that way .. I don’t like to let on about my emotions *sigh* … so my BBBFF I’m down on my knees hoping you will forgive me for not acknowledging the bling earlier … pretty please ?

The only rule for this award is that if you accept it; please don't keep it to yourself. Please pass this along to others and share the bling!

Without further adieu I’d like to pass this on to some awesome blogger friends :

  1. Cole over at Pre Middle Age … just ‘cos she’s a kick ass event planner who seems to be even busier than me – and anyone who can handle that many events definitely deserves BLING !
  2. Kimmy over at KimmyStyle .. this woman is all about class ! and every classy lady wears some bling on her !
  3. The Single Lady over at The Single Filez … if you haven’t already visited this sassy young lady then you’re missing out ! what are you waiting for – go over and tell her I sent you there !
  4. Manisha B who writes her chronicles by The Mango Tree … there’s something about her writing that’s gonna strike a chord with all of you; I can’t put my finger on it but anyone who gets me thinking that way deserves some bling !

If you fancy checking out some more uber funky bloggers – do check out the

Hope you enjoy these awesome Bloggers as much as I do =) Happy Reading and don’t forget to show some comment lurve whilst dropping by their blogs !

I am totally borrowing this title from The Fabulous Bitch over at The Joys of My Splintered Life In Small Town … this sassy woman thinks that I (yes ME) am an ‘awesome girl’ ! AND she gave me an Award ! woooohoooo !

awesomegirl award 

She wrote this about me :

Dazediva
Sporadic Reflections
Have you seen her avatar? Yeah. I like me a girl who can down a shot. I love Dazediva. I am imagining her as a good girl, but who has a naughty wild side. I am also imagining her as an exotic beauty. Yep, I sort of have a girl crush on her!
Dazediva is also such a sweet blogger who is always checking up on my blog. Just to see if it is still alive

I’ve been meaning to thank her for a while now – actually since 4th October but my life has literally been on a roller coaster ride so I hope she’ll accept my apologies and just remember that I can be pretty awesome when I’m not feeling totally mind-f**ked !

I really do love my shots (vodka, B52’s, flaming lambourghinis, Tequila & Tabasco – I’m happy with all sorts of shots  other than whiskey or beer) and am proud of the fact that I could probably drink most guys under the table ! 

I suppose in some ways I’m a ‘good girl’ .. actually I am … with a super naughty streak and wild side too =) damn Ms Fab you’ve really got me pegged down haven’t you ???

Like The Fabulous Bitch, most of the time – I don’t think of myself as a ‘girl’ and I’m most definitely not a ‘girly girl’ either … Since this is my blog and I am allowed to indulge in some self-praise – I like to think of myself as a pretty sexy tom-boy girl hehe Some of my guy mates have suggested that I ooze sex appeal without being super girly about it and I pride myself on that =) 

So I’m quite content with everyone thinking of me as an exotic beauty *hint*hint* after all my cheek bones are to die for ;) but on a more serious note – I was voted ‘Best Cheek Bones’ in high school amongst a few other things … As I’ve mentioned before – I’m a potpourri when it comes to my upbringing – and somehow I feel it might have rubbed off on me wherein my ‘looks’ are concerned … I hardly ever get told that I’m fully Indian – I tend to have people think of me as mixed race … I’ve gotten Arab, Turkish, Indian-Latin, half African and even Ethiopian (when I had string braids in my hair spiked with blue!).

Ok enough self-praise and babble on my end (although you were probably secretly enjoying it) … And now it’s time to give out this award to some awesome girls ! *drum rolls*

WhiteSockGirl … and it’s not because she’s given me an award but because this girl tells it like it is – there is no room for the fainthearted at her blog ;) so make sure you check out Splintered Life

Bombchell with a name like that and blog that is just as feisty – she is definitely the most awesome girl in Atlanta !  Her blog explores her wild side, her first video blog, and the latest fashion trends .. check out her boots ! daaamn !

Simone Grant of Sex Lies & Dating in the City … her blog was one of the first few blogs I started reading that got me hooked instantly; she’s a consistent blogger – and I find it fascinating how one person is able to put so many thoughts and actions into words that create a lasting image into the reader … Not only does she take the time to respond to all her comments and readers – but she was sweet enough to check-in on me when I disappeared for my rafting holiday … so no surprise that she is an awesome girl blogger !

Nipsy a.k.a. Nipplelicious … I’ve been lurking around her blog for a few weeks – maybe even 3 months now and am amazed at how she just ‘goes with the flow’ … you have to read her blog and it will leave you laughing so hard and you’ll always remember her when you think of a motel style hotel !

Lost Plum … Another amazing blogger who I haven’t given enough credit too .. Discovered her blog via Simone’s and have been kinda hooked here as well.  Her writing style is ‘direct’ ! And her post titles just crack me up ! She’s definitely an awesome girl :)

Miss Teerious Kaddu … aaah this a blogger who has saved me from being a technical html failure ! She’s a computer wiz and when it came down to me putting up my blog awards – I could think of no one else but her to get some coding work ! And she never let me down either – instant response ! Go check her out if you haven’t already.

Miss Malini .. she’s someone I’ve not mentioned here before and I should have … this young lady is a radio jockey; a writer for one of the Mumbai papers and has an endless supply of local Mumbai & Bollywood gossip for you.  I’m fortunate enough to know her as a person (prior to acquiring knowledge of her mini celeb status) .. also helps that she has one of the few English radio shows in Mumbai ! so yeah – she’s pretty awesome =) 

Girls – you are truly awesome in your own individual ways and I’m glad to have discovered you through the blogosphere !

That’s all from me folks – I think I’ve given you enough awesome girls to go and check out .. literally ! So go for it and drop me your thoughts on what you think about their blogs … and whilst you are at it – show them some comment lurve too =)

I’ve been doing a lot of online lurking lately and really just losing myself into a whole other literary world out there in cyberspace.

bloggerchoiceawardsA couple of days ago – I came across this website, Bloggers Choice Awards which quite appealed to me.  I got down to thinking … so I’ve been writing for a little while now – nothing OTT; not obsessively – just whenever I get the chance … and I’ve been getting some  really good feedback and reviews via Link Referral … so I thought .. Why Not ??

After all – what have I got to lose ? I must be doing something right – I’ve got 29 neighbours who are willing to drop by and check on how things are going on my end; to gather up a bit of info from my insights into life; not to mention quite a few hundred passerby’s over a period of few months.  So really it can’t be all that bad to register myself as a Blog to consider … right ??

So can you imagine my sigh of pleasure when I noticed that my neighbour over at BusinessVartha Street had left me a note on another post and had basically voted for my blog !! I got my FIRST vote  - and it wasn’t ‘me’ voting for ‘me’ ! Woooooohoooooo !!!

Now I’m going to do some shameless self-promotion – and ask all of my neighbours – to consider voting for my blog which has been nominated for Best Humour Blog and Best Blog About Stuff.

My site was nominated for Best Blog About Stuff! My site was nominated for Best Humor Blog!

 

You don’t have to vote.  Only if you feel like it.   You will vote for me .. right ?  Ok.  At least pretend you voted for me then for the sake of my ego.

 

p.s. if you have been nominated; or have been inspired to participate – then please let me know so I can go and drop my support to you =)
