On Wednesday I was nominated for the Illuminating Blogger Award! I was nominated by the blog, So It Must Be True…, written by Valerie. The nomination is for blogs with illuminating and informative content. I’m honored by this nomination, and I’m truly grateful to all the readers out there that either enjoy or have been helped by reading my blog.
In accepting this award, I have to share one random thing about myself. I guess it is no secret that I love to help people. What some people may not know is that I love animals. I am addicted to reading blogs about cats and dogs. They crack me up and the pictures are usually too cute for words. I get a chance to see the lighter side of life, and it really helps me cope with the things I hear in my counseling sessions. Here are my three favorite blogs about cats and dogs.

Another part of accepting this award is being able to nominate five other talented bloggers. Therefore, I would like to give the Illuminating Blogger Award to the following blogs:
One Gay at a Time– I started to read his blog a couple of months after I started writing College Life. He gives a very honest and open inside view into his dating life as a gay man in New York City. I started adding a few LGBT relationship posts onto my blog soon after I started reading his blog and used some of the insights I learned from his life to benefit the LGBT students who may read my blog.
Rewriting Life– This blog is written by Kaleigh. She uses her blog to help people, especially younger girls gain strength and build their confidence. She just finished her senior year in college and may have just graduated in the last few weeks. She is also the founder of the website, HUGstronger. I have been inspired by her writing and can’t wait to see what she writes next.
Singleosophy– This blog is written by friends, Grant, Max, Les and Heather. Although, I think Les is taking a hiatus from the blog. They write using a lot of their own experiences with dating and life in general. It is very humorous, yet insightful at the same time.
The Unforseen Wisdom Ahead– Lauren writes this blog. She opens her heart and soul in her blog posts. I love to read her posts about life, love, dating and her dreams. Her blog has inspired some of my ideas for my posts.
Finding Roots– I love this blog by Jarryd. He is a college student who is finding himself. His writing is genuine and honest. He writes about dating, friendships, being gay, his major which is public relations, entertainment,inspiration and life in general. His blog is entertaining and full of great information.
