Thank you to The Simple Beginner on the nomination for this award!

• Let those you’ve chosen know that you have nominated them

Here are TSB’s questions:

1. What’s your favorite post on your blog that you’ve written so far? Although it didn’t get too many views, I’d have to say that my post about seeing the Hello Kitty Cafe truck during their Northern CA visit is one of my favorites. It was a crazy and fun experience, and it was also nice to see the diverse fan base this Sanrio character has.
2. Describe yourself in 5 words. Selfless, geeky, helpful, humble, and awesome.
3. What inspired you to start a blog? Back when I was in college, a bunch of my friends had Xanga accounts. They convinced me to create one too, and eventually I used it as a place to jot down my thoughts, public, private, or otherwise. I’ve since gone from there to Blogger, Tumblr, and now WordPress to do my posts.
4. How did you come up with your blog name? Most friends know that my whole name consists of 3 Rs, so I’ve been called R3, Triple R (neither of those are that great for a blog name, honestly) and R Cubed. I wanted to keep the name simple and one that could easily identify with myself.
5. Have you ever done a challenge on your blog? If yes, what was it? If no, what challenge do you want to do? (e.g. photo a day challenge, blog every day in *insert month here*) I did a 30 day song challenge once. Based on the day’s song question, you would post a YouTube video of the song as a response. Pretty fun!
6. What is the closest thing to you that is BLUE? Funny, there’s quite a few blue items on the desk where I’m typing this post. However, the closest one would be my paper trimmer.
7. What are you currently eating or drinking? Nothing at the moment. I actually finished dinner not too long ago (Carne asada burrito with a hortacha. Yum.).

And here are the questions I have for you:

3. What is your favorite food?
4. Star Trek or Star Wars? (Or if neither, your favorite geek franchise, if any? i.e. Dr. Who, Harry Potter, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., etc.)
5. When was the last time you saw a movie, and what was it?
6. Is there a blog that you visit regularly that you would recommend to me?
7. What beauty product do you never leave home without?
