Biggest thanks to Sophie for nominating me to take part in The Awesome Blogger Award! I really appreciate it. If you haven’t heard of Sophie’s Corner, it’s an amazing blog which consists of lifestyle, positivity and incredible inspiration. This girl never fails to motivate me, to get me off my ass and do something productive! Please go and check out her blog, she’s been posting every day in quarantine which is really exciting. And now, let’s get on to the post!
Rules
- Thank the person who nominated you.
- Tag the post with #awesomebloggeraward.
- Answer the questions you were asked.
- Nominate at least five bloggers and inform them of their nomination.
- Give them ten new questions to answer
Sophie’s Questions
- What is your favourite thing about blogging?
Talking to all of my readers is definitely one of the highlights. You’re all so incredibly inspiring! Every comment I receive gives such a buzz of excitement. Even after doing it for so long, the rewards of speaking with you don’t get old.
- When did you start your blog?
KittyJade has been running for almost three years, which I can’t fully understand. It was created on 23rd April 2017, inspired heavily by Zoe Sugg and her book series: Girl Online.
- What is your current favourite song?
My favourite at the minute is either ‘Wouldn’t It Be Nice?’ by The Beach Boys or ‘Canyon Moon’ by Harry Styles.
- What is your favourite food?
This is such a hard question, there are way too many foods to choose from. I’m torn between crackers and bananas…
- When is your favourite season?
Spring is my favourite, though it changes so often. Usually spring has a good mix of rainy days and sunshine, though lately it’s felt like summer!
- What is your star sign?
I’m a Virgo, which means I have pure intentions and like to please people. Some parts of that are true, though I definitely lose it with people from time to time!
- Would you rather be rich or famous?
Though I don’t particularly want to be rich, I’d definitely chose it over fame. This blog is quite small, which is partly why I enjoy it. I’ve never been in a situation where I don’t have enough time to speak with you, my lovely followers! If I was to grow big, I’d still want to interact with my followers as much as possible. Plus, money can be used in all sorts of ways. Most importantly, I can donate to a charity!
- Who are your favourite bloggers?
I have so many! Sophie, the person who nominated me, is definitely one of my favourites. Grace Ariya, Neve, Maryam, Gracie Chick and Caz to name a few! But I’ll make sure to put all my favourite bloggers into a post for you, so you can give them the love they deserve.
- What was the last movie you watched?
On my dad’s birthday, the family sat down to watch Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse of The Black Pearl. Honestly, I don’t really watch movies. Unless it’s a social occasion, I’ll stick to books!
- What is the most challenging thing about blogging?
One thing I struggle with is taking photos for my posts. I’m not a perfectionist as such, but I want the best for my blog so it takes me a lot of time! Other than that, I’d say blogging is quite easy. As I enjoy it so much, I’ve not realised how much work goes in. I love every single second!
My Questions
(sorry for using some of your’s Sophie, but they were so fun to answer!)
- Why did you start a blog?
- Do you do anything alongside blogging? (YouTube, Instagram, small business etc)
- How long do you spend blogging per day?
- How many times do you post per week, and on what days?
- What do you enjoy the most about blogging?
- Who are your favourite YouTubers?
- What artist are you listening to most at the moment?
- What’s your favourite album?
- What book have you recently finished?
- What book are you reading now?

Aww that’s so kind, and yes that photo is mine! I took it about two years ago but keep re-using it until this day. 3 years is certainly a long time, and I wish I could have done something in celebration. Though I didn’t really plan! Your blog is one of my favourites too ❤

Thank you so much Lucy! Three years is a long time and I wish I could have celebrated better. Zoe Sugg has always been a great inspiration. Her vlogs at the moment are really making me feel better. And my birthday is in August, not September aha. Take care and thank you for all of the comments 🙂

Thank you so much for the tag! 🤗 and congratulations on your Blogiversary!! 🎉 I usually say that Autumn is my favourite season but I’m really enjoying everything that spring brings along at the moment 🌸 you’re right, comments never get old and are so lovely to receive ✨ I think the perk of quarantine for me is that the time is helping me to figure out what I want to do with my life (or at least what direction I should go in next) as I honestly have no idea 😂 Take care lovely 💕💕

You are most welcome, Elsie! Quarantine has came from such difficulty, but I have no choice but to see the positive in it. Good luck with your goal! I have no idea what I would like to pursue in life, there are many choices. Currently I’m focusing on each day as it comes. Hope you have a great weekend 🙂

Thank you so much! I can’t believe it’s been 3 years already. Sometimes I avoid photos by using GIFs instead – just a tip if you feel like it’s appropriate (in tags and awards etc) Stay safe 🙂

Wooohoooo! Congrats on the well-deserved award and Happy-Nearly-3-Years-Bloggiversary!!
I’d definitely choose money over fame, though I’d rather choose health. Maybe money could buy me a new body 😂 Totally get what you mean about wanting time to interact with other bloggers, I’d definitely not want to be a big blog that then forgoes that interaction as a result. Really good point.
Sending love. Hope the week ahead is a good one for you. Stay safe!

Spring is also my favorite season! I’m a bit biased, since my birthday is in March, but I love the flowers and the trees and seeing everything green … I’d definitely choose rich over famous as well. I’m quite happy with my blog and my circle of friends, and besides, I could use the money for so much (books and traveling, most likely 😛 ). I really liked reading your answers!! ❤

Ooh that’s interesting! If I were rich I don’t think I could resist not spending it on books haha. Usually I don’t buy books because of the library services however since libraries are closed I’ve had to order them myself. I’m super excited for The Hunger Games prequel, however! Hope you have a great evening. Thank you so much for reading 🙃
