Now there are a bunch of questions that need answering as a part of accepting the award. LET’S DO IT. (I am SUPER EXCITED. YAYYY *HIGH PITCHED SQUEALS*)

Give a brief story of how your blog started.

There is no real tale of woe or excitement here, to be honest. xD I started this blog a few months back to share my burning questions and passions and CONSTANT HYPER DISPOSITION. ;P But I got so caught up in my semester exams and then *shudders at the memory* I contracted chicken pox from my dumb-ass brother. ugh. All that delayed any REAL activity on The Withering up until September. That’s when i decided to get my act together and ACTUALLY do it! LIKE…DO IT! AND, GUESS WHAT, I DID IT!  *confetti all around*

Give two pieces of advice to new bloggers.

O-K-A-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y

♥ Don’t go near sick people. That’ll prevent you form achieving your blogging goals.

♥ Que some posts for times like exams and….idk…in case you temporarily die or something.

♥ Make sure you KNOW how to type. And if you don’t, learn it. It ain’t exactly rocket science, hon!

♥ Keep trying to beautify your blog. The more pleasing it is to your readers’ eyes, the more they’ll talk to you and become your friends and that’s kinda the whole point anyway.

♥ You know, the worst mistake you can make is ASSUMING shitty things about your writing! I mean, WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU THINK THAT WHAT YOU WRITE ISN’T WORTH ANYONE’S TIME? WHY? TELL ME. WHY? WHYYY??? STOP WITH ALL THIS MADNESS! YOUR BLOG IS AWESOME. YOU ARE AWESOME. YOUR WRITING IS FANTASTIC. You just need to write your heart out. TRUST ME, people WILL respond. THEY WILL HAVE TO.

  2. OMG!!!!!! Hahahahaha, I’m overwhelmed by your plethora of excitement and energy, Rain! Thank you for praising so highly of me, haha, I’m truly flattered. 😛 Aww, I can’t believe you’ve only started this unbelievably amazing blog only a couple of months ago?!!! You must be super talented in expressing your thoughts and ideas and spreading love in the blogging community. ❤ I also agree with your suggestions for newbies because yes, no one should ever judge the bloggers' writings or opinions since those are their own voices! Anyways, hopefully you won't catch any sickness from your brother in the future & keep blogging for that I love what I'm reading here! :DDD

    1. Haha! 😂😂 I USUALLY THIS EXCITED. 😂 This helps me from getting caught up in al the depressing stuff about future and all, you know what I mean? 😅

      Yeah, my blog posts and September started hand-in-hand. 😁 And I must say, I too am overwhelmed by how lovely people actually are! ❤❤

      OHHH! 😂😂 I PLAN TO MAINTAIN MY HEALTH NOW! So don’t worry about it. 😁

      HAVE A GORGEOUS DAY, JAS! ❤

      1. Your positive vibe is super contagious and even now, I’m feeling it. x)) Ahaha, same as you, blogging and reading are actually pretty great ways to escape from the inevitable, a.k.a. the unpredictable future. LOL *sigh* It’s sad that happy time always flies and I’ll have to face the music soon. ><
        Aww, you're about to attract more lovely people like you since what is that old saying…? Birds of a feather flock together? ❤
        Hahaha, that's good to know! Don't forget to remind your brother then! I hope him well, too. 😀
        Thank you, my dear! Have a fabulous week!

    2. OH, BUT JAS, I am sure the sad moments won’t touch you ANY TIME SOON. *sending happy thoughts and vibes and LOTS of wishes your way* ❤❤ (AND MY WISHES WORK 😉)

      Hey, do you listen to Alan Walker? Or maybe Brunuhville? LET ME KNOWWW! And if you don’t I suggest you give them both a try. I think you’ll LOVE their music. ☺

      Hahahaha! YES…I am very eager to meet all these BIRDS… 😆😆

      1. You’re such a sweetie, Rain!!! Thanks for your encouragement! I’ll make sure to stay positive the way you seem to be all the time (at least from the time we chat, haha).

        You’ve got to be kidding me!!!!! ALAN WALKER IS MY LIFE!!!!!!!! He doesn’t have any songs/pieces of music that I don’t like and ahhhhhhh, no way, I can’t believe you love him, too(I assume?)!!!! My favorites are FADED, SING ME TO SLEEP, ALONE & THE SPECTRE. How about you?
        I haven’t heard of Brunuhville and I just listened to some of his music and it was pretty cool. His music calms me down easily and I liked the tranquility in the melody. 🙂

        P.S. I’ve got something special for you this Friday, so stay tuned! 😀 *evil grinning*

      2. OHHH ALONE AND FADED ARE MY FAVORITES!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍 ALAN WALKER….EEeeekekekeekekekekekeke!! I LOOOVEE HIM. My brother introduced me to him. And I love him for that!!

        AND BRUNUHVILLEE! I want his Blackheart played at my funeral. Ahahahahahaha! 😂😂😂 Seriously though, did you listen to RIVERLANDS AND BLACKHEART BY HIM?? YOU HAVE GOT TO. Pleaaaassseeee??? 😊

        W-H-A-T???!?!? 😱😱 And you won’t even hint at it?? 😒 WHOA JAS THAT IS SOOO EVIL! 😒 Now I am all excited and I doubt I’ll be able to sleep.. ONE HINT?? 😅

      3. Brunuhville’s music is indeed…otherworldly incredible. It always gives me chills no matter what sort of music it belongs to. 😛 Hopefully I’ll get used to his style soon! ^^ I do like his latest one, THE LAST OF HIS NAME, because the melody kind of tugs at my heartstrings. xD

        Ah! Patience, Rain, patience. Only less than 12 hours to know what it is so heehee, I just hope you’ll be as happy as I imagine. *fingers crossed*

    1. SERIOUSLY!!!! I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE TYPE LIKE RETARDS!! 😂😂😂 LIKE DU-UDE…..JUST STAHP! 😂😂😂 And IT DOESN’T GET SAID ENOUGH – People should not compare their writing to others AND not rate it on the basis of COMMENTS!! 😂 We all follow so many awesome blogs and sometimes, there just isn’t enough time to go through all their new posts at once, that DOES NOT MEAN THAT PEOPLE ARE IGNORING YOU OR THAT YOUR WRITING ISN’T WORTH READING. 😊😊

  22. Hmmm. I followed a link and saw what you meant. I was like “surprise! Guess what you wake up to? Your wordpress thing gone from a link!!” Um…trying to think. I’m using a website instead of blog I believe…if that helps…this is my first time using WordPress
