Familiar Animal Award

I recently was nominated by Simcomix/MrsOogieBoogie and Lovesstorms for the Familiar Animal Award, so I'd like to thank her for that.

Rules for Accepting this Award:

• Thank the Blogger who nominated you and link back to their page.
• Post the Award picture on your blog. I didn't get one, since for reasons due to respect, MrsOogieBoogie changed the picture.
• Write a short paragraph about yourself and what your blog means to you.
• If you could be any animal, what would it be?
• Pick and notify ten nominees.

About Me:

I often don't like sharing personal stuff, so I'm going to be a bit vague while telling you guys what I'm comfortable with. LOL. I'm a Midwesterner, born and raised, and although I live in a different state now than where I grew up, I'm still in the Midwest. I will say I feel like part of my heart belongs in California though because I love sunshine, beaches, and relaxation. I am a city girl and I get freaked out by silence. I've always been a creative person, whether it be writing, coloring, taking pictures, acting in movies, or any other sort of artistic endeavor. I love Christian Bale Batman, and I love cars. I am a free spirit and I don't like being restricted by tons of rules and order. I am nice until you give me a reason not to be.

What My Blog Means to Me:

Despite the lack of attention I've been giving to my blog lately, it does still mean a lot to me. Echoes of Eternity was the first story I wrote where I was happy with what I wrote because I was writing what I truly felt, I was writing from my heart, rather than writing what I thought might be successful. In reality, what was from my heart was what was the most successful. I love the creativeness I can put into my blog, whether it be through the writing itself, the poses I make, or the pictures I take using the Sims3. I love the freedom I have working on my blog because there are no rules to follow except for what I decide.

What Animal Would I Be:

I took a test to determine which animal was closest to me, and I got Eagle as a result. I wholeheartedly agree with the description as well, which states this:

The Eagle: You are a hunter among men. You never give up when it comes to getting the prize. When you have a goal, you are the one that extends yourself to reach it. You are a worker, a task doer, and your weakness is being prideful.

Sometimes you try to get the best. You try to get the biggest kill or you think you are lofty above everyone else. It's okay to have confidence, but just relax a little. You don't have to be the best, to be the best.

I do get very driven when I am focused on something, and I always try to do the best that I can. I feel like the hardest things to do are the ones that are the most worth it, so I don't let 'it's too hard' ever stop me from doing something.
