I got Nominated!

It has been a while that I got nominated. This week I received the Liebster Award from the lovely Monic over at Simply Sutter! Thank you, girl. I'm so stoked. A while back I stopped participating in award giving and what not, but this year I feel it is time to change this. So, I'm more than just happy to share this award with all of my readers by answering the following questions, revealing a few random facts about me, and then nominating fellow bloggers to do the same.

Here goes nothing. :)
