It's my Birthday!!!

Yes, it's my birthday and I'm 25 now, crazy...

To celebrate it there will be my blogoversary giveaway in two weeks. I thought I'd combine the two, since the dates are so close to each other.


Here are some pics from my childhood:





I've asked some of my blogger friends to pick one thing that comes to mind when they think of me, here is what they say, thank you so much ladies: 

Aven Ellis: My birthday word for Simona is CONNECTIVITY because that is the reason we met-she won a copy of Connectivity during a book blitz, and we *connected* because of that book. Which means Connectivity not only holds a special place in my heart for being my first published book, but for bringing Simona into my life as well, and that is one of the greatest gifts I've ever received.















Ananda: Simona you cutiepieeeee,when I think of you,the first thing that comes to my mind is BFF,someone I trust completely,someone who I care for and love with all my heart.You feel like a family,have been there for me when I needed a cheer,a laugh,someone to listen to me...And I know that you'll be here for me ALWAYS.















Maryline: Mmm.. I was going to say "friend" as well, but actually: The word that comes to mind when I see you, is "sister". I never had a sister, but I imagine she would be exactly like you: loving, caring, supportive, wonderful,.. a best friend.











Hilary Grossman: I always picture you with a book but I also alway picture you someplace beautiful (like you).







Pat Elliot: When driving in London, seeing the historic sites, I always think 'Simona would love this!' I know how much you love my home city - and now it holds a different meaning for me, knowing that you love it so. London, in my mind, is now the place that Simona loves.












Rebecca Raisin: When I think of you the words that spring to mind are feminine and floral. I see you in a floaty summer dress, wearing red lipstick, your hair a riot of curls. Holidaying somewhere exotic, the sun shining, a book in one hand and a cocktail in the other. 














Isabell: The object which reminds me of Simona is constant companion in my daily life. It's a very cute and little swiss knife which she sent me as a little present.

I see it every day because I attached it to my bunch of keys. It's not only pretty looking, it's also very practical. It has a knife, a scissors and a nail file.
A great little helper, which I am very thankful for. Happy Birthday Simona! 










Alba: When I think about you, the first thing that comes to my mind is the word DREAMS. I think you are a dreamer but you don't just sit and day dream, you go for it and make your dreams come true! 





THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS LADIES

    You're adventurous! You strive for what you want, and I adore your determination and passion. You're kind, caring and passionate, and the sort of person that everyone should have in their life. My word for you is fabulous, because that is what you are in my eyes.
