It has been an exciting few days in Bangorland. Yesterday I went back to 'lookachu' (the vintage/retro shop where I got this dress) and came away with a new blog post (more on that soon) and a whole new outfit (oops) I'm officially in love with the place. Then today I was studying hard in one of my lectures when I got an email telling me the lovely Helen from Treasure every moment had left me a comment. It turned out she had nominated me for the Liebster Award.
The Liebster Award seems to have been going forever, I can't find who started it. It seems to have appeared in about 2010 from what I have Googled Anyway, it is an award given to a blogger who has less than 200 followers, they follow the rules, you guys find out some things about them then they nominate some more blogs that they love.
I had seen these of a few other people's blogs and I quite enjoyed reading them, so now it's my turn, so here I go.
Rules of the Liebster Award:
1. List 11 facts about yourself.
2. Answer the 11 questions given to you.
3. Ask 11 new questions for the bloggers you nominate for the award.
4. Choose 11 bloggers with 200 or less followers to nominate.
5. Go to each bloggers page and let them know about the award.
6. Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog.

My questions from the lovely Helen
1) Who/what made you want to start blogging?
Everyone seems to have the misconception that all students are always skint even students themselves.
