Guest Blogger: Whirlwind of Surprises


Hi there, TSWL dolls. Today, I would like to introduce to you one of our bloggie friends, Cinny of



Cinny loves her dogs and her blog is one of my favorite sites to get my giveaway fix! *wink wink ^^)
So we did a short interview with Cinny, which we really enjoyed, and we would like to share it with you so we would all get to know her more!


Me: Hi, Cinny! Could you please tell us something about yourself?


Cinny: The SO likes to call me a superwoman. I juggle everything in my life, it’s a chaotic mess but somehow I get things done. I work a highly demanding day profession and blog in my limited spare time. I also enjoy spending time with my dogs, baby Pom and JR.

Me: What do you blog about and when or why did you start it?


Cinny: Honestly, I blog about anything and everything. I don’t like being classified into a specific niche because my blog, like me, is very diverse. I love spreading news on deals and great products via reviews and giveaways, but I also enjoy to take pictures, write on my dogs, foods, style and fashion, sports, cars and a variety of other interests. I wouldn’t be able to describe it all.


Me: For how long have you been blogging?


Cinny: I started about 2 years ago now and got into it at first because it seemed like fun and now it’s developed into a passion. I love it. It’s my happy place and outlet for my creativity that I may not be able to express in my everyday life.


Me: What is it that you love most about blogging?


Cinny: It’s fun, it’s challenging, it’s me.



Me: What about the biggest challenge?


Cinny: Timing. Working as a professional means I have very little time for myself so when I blog, it’s always after work or on a rare weekend off. It’s amazing, even to me, how many posts I end up putting up. That time could probably be better used towards sleep but it makes me happy so what can I say?


Me: Which blog or blogs do you look up to as inspiration or model?


Cinny: This one is hard to answer. Every blog has their own pros and cons and I feel that different methods work differently for people so while there are lots of blogs I like and enjoy, you’d be reading to next year if I were to name them all.



Me: Where do you see your blog in the future?


Cinny: I see it growing and expanding, hopefully. I wanted to add a foodie section with recipes and restaurants to go to but due to my time limitations, that has been going slowly. However, I have recently submitted several recipes to the Zuuzs recipe contest! Woohoo! So, we’ll have to see how those do. Maybe you can check out those recipes and vote for me.

Me: Is there any advice you can give to blogging newbies?


Cinny: Blogging is hard work. It takes time and effort and what you put in is what you’ll get out of it. Teehee, I shouldn’t be giving advice. I’m still getting advice all the time. It's not an individual race, bloggers help each other out so don't be afraid to get out there and make some friends.

Me: What's your favorite ice cream flavor? ^^)


Cinny: Mmmm…I think I need to open an ice-cream store someday. Green Tea, Oreo cookie, Pistachio, Mint Chocolate Chip, Mango…I have a bit of a sweet tooth.




I hope you enjoyed the interview as much as we did. Thanks, Cinny for visiting TSWL today!
Have a fab day everyone!
