7x7 Link Award



Anna, the very smart girl behind the Defiant Success blog, gave me this award, a very cool  one, which is similar to a “tag it” post/game.

Rules are as followed:
-           
      - Tell everyone something that no one else knows about you.
Well, you might find this weird, but I like spending time alone in my room, just listening to music or quietly surfing the internet! You could call me a loner, but I do get bored after a couple of days and always feel the need to go out, see people, talk! So yeah, I do hang out with friends, but I don’t mind spending time alone, either!


-         -  Link to one of my posts that I personally think best fits the following categories: Most Beautiful Piece, Most Helpful Piece, Most Popular Piece, Most Controversial Piece, Most Surprisingly Successful Piece, Most Underrated Piece, and Most Pride-Worthy Piece.

Interesting. Here it goes:
*I have to say that I don’t really trust my Google dashboard and analytics- there’s always something fishy there, so I can’t really say these are right (I am referring to my most popular or most surprisingly successful piece)
** It was hard choosing some links, as I don’t think I have helpful pieces or controversial ones, but I will try to come up with something

Most Beautiful Piece: Beautiful? Hmm... let’s just say the one that I liked writing and I thought it turned out good. Besides the last two I will mention later one (pride-worthy), I would have to go with the post about We need to talk about Kevin
Most Helpful Piece:  Uhm, I don’t know! The Saturday Night Live post? Or the one about On the Road trailer?
Most Popular Piece:  Weirdly enough, right now, it’s the Oscar live-blogging, but I think it’s just because of the pictures! Close by, the On the Road trailer discussion
Most Controversial Piece:  This one is tough...I have no idea! Nothing really interesting happens on the comment box in my blog. If I have to mention something, I would say maybe the Cronenberg posts? Or the awards talk? Or On the road?
Most Surprisingly Successful Piece: Carnage and The Blue Sea have surprisingly high numbers- maybe it’s just because they are smaller films that have got a lot of attention lately
Most Underrated Piece: I loved Shame, and I spent a lot of time writing my review on it, but it seems not a lot of people read it, which is sad, because it was one of favourite posts!
Most Pride-Worthy Piece:  I have two posts I wrote even before starting this blog that I will always remember: A single man and A streetcar named Desire – two movies I loved writing about and who will always be in my top 10 or 20 of all times


-         -  Pass this award on to seven other bloggers.
Gladly passed on to:
Margaret aka Sati- Cinematic corner
Surrender to the void- I don’t know his/her name and if he/she does posts like this, but I love the blog and I would like to see his/her post [Later edit: It's Steven- hello Steven :) ]


Thank you Anna again!

  8. There must be something about the name 'Ruth' - are we popular? haha
    Danke for the award! I just saw this, and the one from Lesya, so I'll be getting on to this one tomorrow if I can! I've been very lazy this weekend and haven't blogged at all!
