12 Day Blogger Challenge - Why do you blog? + five random facts

If you follow her on Twitter, you might know that Amy from Style Storms has just started the 12 Day Blogger Challenge. It's a really awesome, easy challenge -- to post for twelve days, completing a number of tasks. It's easy because the questions are easy; it's a challenge because not a lot of us are able to post for twelve days in a row. I've certainly never been able to, and it's currently the busiest time of the academic year, so it will definitely be a challenge.

The greatest form of procrastination! Let's get straight to it.

Day 1: Why do you blog?

I feel that I've answered this so many times. It's inevitable when you do a certain number of tag posts, I guess! So, the relatively short answer is: I made a really disgusting pad Thai from a recipe I found on the internet and felt compelled to share that fact with the world. The reason that I keep blogging is simply that I've started. This blog is now a commitment that I've made to myself, and the more I keep with it, the more I feel that I need to uphold it. Sure, it's not as successful as others, but there's nothing wrong with that -- I'm having so much fun and I keep meeting so many amazing bloggers!

Plus five random facts...

1. My middle name was almost Louise.
2. I'm trying out a Gwen Stefani by OPI glitter polish that I got recently and it has more glitter than a kindergarten craft table -- I love it.
3. Growing up, I hated lasagne.
4. I only eat hot salami, and the spicier, the better. I also don't believe in eating it in bread.
5. Peanut butter and cheese sandwiches are delicious.

I would apologise for the food-related facts, but really... nobody should be sorry for food.
