Featured Blogger: Brooke

Today, I'm featuring Brooke from Dove Tree. (I'm so sorry that I haven't posted this until now!)

Brooke's blog is definitely one of my favorites.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

Blogging is often something I do in my spare time.  I also like to take pictures, spend time outside, and spend time with family as well.

What is your blog about?

My blog is a personal blog where I can share my thoughts, ideas, poetry, pictures, etc.

Why do you blog, and when did you start?

I blog because I adore writing.  My mom started blogging (she's always been an amazing writer) and she told me about blogspot.  That same day I got my account. :)

Do you have any pets?

Yes I do!  I have one Boston Terrier (Pugsly), a calico cat (Zipper), a main-coon mix (Snowy), a tarantula (Felisha), and two birds (Gloria and Melvin).

How would you describe yourself?

I suppose I could describe myself as funny, kind, a good listener (a talker, too), and fun to be around (I hope)!

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Ah, the question I've been asked a thousand times (and I like to answer!).  I have a lot of things that I'd like to be.  A nature photographer or a writer to name a couple.

Why do you love photography?

I feel that photography gives me the ability to capture a moment.  It's a way of reminding me of something, or just bringing good memories.  There are so many ways to take a photo, and many people just don't know about it.

What is your ultimate dream?

That's tuff!  I would really like become a famous writer who has my photography in my books, that also help animals!  That's a mixture of lots of things, but hey, an ultimate dream is an ultimate dream. :D

Do you play any instruments?

Yes, I play guitar (electric and acoustic).  I'm still learning, but I'm pretty good.  I play piano, too, but I don't know anything about the keys/how to play well or anything.  I like to play around with my keyboard, etc.

Thanks so much Brooke! Would you like to be featured on Letters of My Life, or do you know someone who you think I should feature? Just email me, and we'll go from there.

Featured Blogger: Alex

I have really wanted to do a Featured Blogger sort of thing for quite some time. Here we go!

This week's Featured Blogger is Alex from Magnificent Notes.

What do you like to do in your spare time?
I normally go outside, and take some pictures. Sometimes I just sit back and enjoy a nice movie. Sometimes I clean my room. It all just depends on how my day is.

What is your blog about?
My blog, Magnificent Notes, is all about my life.

Why do you blog, and when did you start?
I blog because I need something to do, and I ♥ to share my days/thoughts/feelings on certain things. I started blogging In February, 2010. I have had many blogs since then.

Do you have any pets?
Yes, I do in fact! I have 3 dogs—Mickey, Zoe, and Hank—and about 20 goats.

How would you describe yourself?
I am a laid back person. I love to stand out from others, and that is why I wear Kermit & Cookie Monster hats in public :)

What do you want to be when you grow up?
I want to be a professional photographer, but for a back-up job, I'd like to be a Veterinarian.

Why do you love photography?
I don't actually know. It's just something that appeals to me.

What is your ultimate dream?
To go to France, Hawaii, Japan, and China all in 1 year.

Alex's blog currently has only 17 followers, so go on over and follow if you'd like!

I was planning on posting this in a few days instead, but my photo uploader is dead. Does anyone else have this problem too?

Next week's Featured Blogger is one of my all-time favorite bloggers. If you'd like to nominate a blogger, leave a comment or email me at urbanbirding202@gmail.com.
