After a brief break from blogging, I’m back with more content! Last week I shared one of my favorite blog series posts called Link Loves where I share posts, articles, and products that I like. I also posted about how to buy your first cosplay, 5 of the geekiest things I have ever done, and stay-cation essentials for introverts! Little did I know that Trinity from Triform Trinity was keeping an eye on me and nominated me for the Sunshine Blogger Award! Thanks Trinity! Check out some of his amazing game reviews like this one on FF XIV Stormblood and this one on Severed!

Sunshine Blogger Award Preview:
The Sunshine Blogger award is a peer recognition for bloggers that inspire positivity, joy, warmth and any other emotions that you feel when you think about the sun. I’m taking a different approach and I will nominate some bloggers that are new followers and write amazing posts!
The Rules:
- Thank the blogger who nominated you and link back to their blog.
- Answer the 11 questions the blogger asked you.
- Nominate 11 new blogs to receive the award and write them 11 new questions.
- List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your post and/or on your blog.
Questions:
If you had the chance to write one article that could change a person’s life, what would you write about given your previous content? I would write a post about how video games have made me who I am. I touched on it in this post about fandoms but I’d love to do a much more detailed one like Normal Happenings is doing on his blog. You hear about books that changed a person’s life, but what about a game? Maybe my post could open another mind or a heart or just make someone think.
One day you see a portal to another world. Where does it take you? If I’m lucky, it’ll dump me into the world of Harry Potter and give me magical abilities so I can finally attend Hogwarts at 25 years old.
What type of music is your home? The type that you can always fall back on to fully relax and is the one that interests you the most. I would have to say alternative. There is nothing like blasting Fiona Apple’s Criminal or Nirvana’s Heart Shaped Box in the car. I feel the most myself when I have alt rock playing.
You are making a game; what genre are going with and why? My first game would most likely be a visual novel. I love to write and the idea of multiple story lines with choices excites me.
Breathing in space or breathing under water: which one do you choose? Breathing under water. I love to swim and being able to breathe under water means I can stay under for as long as I want. And you know, mermaids.
Favorite mascot? Hufflepuff may not be my house but I love that their mascot is a badger.
What is your morning routine before going to work/school/etc.? I’m usually up at 4 am to make it to work by 5:30. I’m a girl so I usually have to pick out some clothes, tame my hair and throw on some mascara and eye shadow. I brush my teeth then make my breakfast and lunch for the office. I throw on some Converse, and I’m out the door.
Tell me a story of when you encountered your first video game. If you’re interested in reading about my first game, you can check out my post on it here which was a part of my 30 Day Video Game Challenge.
What is your element? Earth.
Why is this your element? If you follow astrology, Earth would be my element, but I picked it for other reasons. Earth is grounded and strong.
Running or walking to your destination? I enjoy walking over running but I have taken up the Couch to 5K program! You can watch my progress on Instagram.
My Questions:
- What was your first fandom? (Or what was the first thing you obsessed over?)
- Who is your favorite fictional character?
- What is something you love about your favorite fandom?
- What is something you hate about your favorite fandom?
- Are you a fan of something that doesn’t seem to be that popular?
- What do you watch/read/play the most?
- What fictional place/house would you love to live in?
- Where would you take a fictional dream vacation?
- What character has a wardrobe you’d love to have?
- What Hogwarts house does you pet belong in?
- Tell me about your favorite day in your life so far.
