Cherry Blossom Adventures

Today I received my first ever blog bling…..The `You cheer me up award` from leechbabe! She has cheered me up immensely today by giving me my first ever blog bling!

The original award comes from A Nice Place in the Sun!!

The creator of the You Cheer Me Up award had three things in mind for the recipients:
* bloggers who make me laugh until my face hurts
* bloggers whose writing voice comforts me when I’m feeling lost
* bloggers who inspire me when I’m feeling blue.

The award instructions are as follows…

If you are a recipient of the You Cheer Me Up Award, please find the blogs that cheer you up, copy the code to post on your sidebar and pass Ethel and Lucy across the blogosphere. You can use what cheers you up in your post, or copy this one, but please send your award recipients back to the original post on A Nice Place In The Sun to get a copy of the award code, post the image and read the instructions. I want to try to maintain a page of original and ongoing award recipients, so feel free to let me know if you’ve received an award when you pick up the image code.

Now to pass this award on…I have never done this before but I have decided to limit it to five people (even though I would love to give it to everyone) and I have decided to give it to people who I don`t think have ever gotten blog bling before….So that I can hopefully cheer them up in the same way leechbabe did for me!

So here goes, in no particular order!

Nay: It goes to Nay because her and I are in very similar stages in our lives and I love and look foward to her blog posts. We also keep in contact separately to our blogs and it is great to have made another friend who I know will be in Japan for awhile!!! Can`t wait to meet you babe!

Sara: Similar to Nay we are in similar stages in our lives, both engaged or married to a Japanese guy and I am always happy to see when she has posted again. I am so glad we are bloggy friends and can`t wait to meet her in real life! Both hers and Nays posts, and their thoughts, often mirror my own so it is great to have that comfort out there. We mail back in forth on facebook quite often and it is always a pleasure to hear from her!

Sushi: Sushi aka deanne, always makes me laugh. And after our hooping adventures on Saturday I can`t wait to meet up with her for hanami again a couple of weeks to get our groove on again! The funny youtube videos she finds always make me laugh! Plus she is teaching me to hoop,  and hooping is exercise and exercise releases endorphins and endorphins make people happy!

Jen: Jen is one of the first blogs outside of Japan that I started reading regularly! She writes just what she is thinking and her energy rubs off on others! She is such a nice girl and is always there to cheer me, or someone else up if they need it. Can`t wait to go out for coffee again soon! Or Haloumi!

Enny : Enny, well what can I say. Whenever I need a laugh I go read her pigeon post! It is the funniest thing ever! And I love hopping on to her blog and seeing her big smiley yellow face! hehehehe. She is a funny girl and I was super lucky to meet her a few months back when she was in Japan!

So girls I pass this on to you and now it is your turn to pass it on to those that cheer you up!!!

Off to put my bling in my sidebar! Yippee!
