I was very much surprised to get a pingback in my comments section… Apparently, I was nominated for the Best Single Blog Post Division for the 2008 Philippine Blog Awards. My post “My Change” was nominated for the field of Sports. Here is a description of the award below, as lifted from the 2008 Philippine Blog Awards:

“There are times when a single post of a blog is so powerful that one never forgets it or one is inspired by it. Such is the power of that one post. And this 2008 the Philippine Blog This is the new Single Blog Post Division. It is divided the same way as with the Blog Division.

Sports
A post that reports and discusses events and issues about Sports. It could be about boxing (both pro and non-pro) or it could be about marathon running. More often the distinction here is that this blog covers competitive sports.”

What a coincidence since the week prior, I received and gave out the “I Love Your Blog Award” which is a personal award showing that you appreciate a certain blog. Personal in the sense that it’s not a real award that is given out by a recognized body but more of an acknowledgement that you love a certain blog.
