Eleven Facts about Me

1. Frozen is the best animated Disney movie there is.
2. My favorite song at the moment is 'Problem' by Ariana Grande.
3. I write modern day fiction, sci-fi, and fairytales.
4. Recently, I finished 'The Lost Hero' and 'The Maze Runner.'
5. I really like old tv shows.
6. Music is my main inspiration for everything in life.
7. My favorite hymn is Blessed Assurance.
8. To me, rock music doesn't make sense.
9. In my opinion, meaningful lyrics are so much more valuable than a catchy tune could ever be.
10. I love the Percy Jackson series:)
11. Earlier this year, my siblings and I promised that we wouldn't ask our parents to let us go see a move because we want to be sure that we see The Hobbit 3.

Elisabeth's Questions
Would you rather be floating in a river of chocolate or falling down a syrup waterfall? (You can eat as much as you want!)
River of chocolate, definitely.
 
If you have watched the Hobbit movies, who's your favorite character?
I love this question! I have so many characters I love, but I would have to say Legolas. Now I know he's not actually in the book, but I think the director might have thought: Man, the readers are going to be mad that we didn't follow the book hardly at all. I know! Let's put Legolas in it." He's amazing. (I also love, Tauriel, Bilbo, and Gandalf)

How many siblings do you have?
3, counting my dog

Do you have a favorite number?
15. Partly because I'm turning 15 this year and because of Taylor Swift's amazing song that inspired one of my first books.

What is your favorite TV show?
Sam and Cat and Liv and Maddie

Who do you think is the cutest cartoon character ever?
Does Olaf count? Because he does, is this a trick question?

Do you find yourself picking up trash that has fallen out of your younger siblings escapades on a regular basis?
Sometimes...

What letter of the alphabet would you use to sum up your whole character?
R, because my dog, Rudo, defines my life! (His name means love)

Would you rather be so stupid you can't add 1+1, so ugly you scare Frankenstein, or so lazy you can't pick up your spoon to eat your favorite cereal?
This is a hard one, but probably ugly like Frankenstein because that reminded me of Beauty and the Beast. (Besides, writers don't have to look good.)

Would you rather be a pot of oatmeal, a utterly destroyed banana, or a severely burnt muffin?
Pot of oatmeal. My dad used to make it for me every morning.

Do you usually find banana peels, apple cores, a army man who has been mutilated by a BB gun, a hideous rubber cheese (hideous rubber mice are included), or ugly jewelry on your bed? (I have seriously found a rubber cheese under my pillow at least 6 times. I guess the Tooth Fairy is mad at me, lol)
I have a bunk bed and I see on the lower one. So I don't have to worry about that.

Thanks again, Elisabeth!

TW's Questions

Cookout or Eat-out?
Eat-out. Love restaurants.

Favorite Quote? 
“To me, Fearless is not the absence of fear. It's not being completely unafraid. To me, Fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, Fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.”
Taylor Swift 

"If I speak in tongues of men and of angels, and do not have love, I am a noisy gong or clanging cymbal." 1st Corinthians 13:1

Waterfall or Beach?
I see beaches all the time, so waterfall.

Ninja Turtles or Ninjago? (Yes, I'm strange)

Lol. Actually, I've only heard of Ninja Turtles. This might be shocking, but I don't watch cartoons.

Do you play/like Legos?

A little bit. I don't have many.

 Would you rather spend a day outdoors or indoors?

This is so hard because I love outdoors, but I also would hate the idea of not having my computer next to me. So inside.

Clothes shopping or grocery shopping?

I somewhat dislike both, because clothes shopping bores me and grocery shopping makes me hungry. However, if you catch me on a good day, I like to buy clothes. 

How often do you blog?

I try to blog once or twice a week, but recently I've done more than that.

What's your favorite food?
Ice cream and pizza

Have you ever been out of your home county?

No, unfortunately, but my dream is go to England. A. Many singers I like live there. B. I love British accents!

What about your home continent?

I haven't been anywhere around there either.

Julia's Questions


If you were a demigod from the Percy Jackson series, who would you be the child of and why (If you haven't read it, just Google a quiz. There are tons)?
I've always thought I would be a daughter of Athena. The quiz said so too. I'm not extremely smart, but I love to learn.

Would you rather date Khan from Star Trek: Into Darkness or Voldemort, from Harry Potter (BWAHAHA good luck with this one)?
I've never seen any of these movies, but I've seen a picture of Voldemort and he looked really scary. So I'll go with the other guy. Whoever he is. Lol:)

What's your favorite Shakespeare play?
I've never seen a Shakespeare play, but I know the story of Romeo and Juliet. So probably that.

What fictional character do you most relate to?
Oh wow. The one that comes to mind right now is Ellie Sweet from The Revised Life of Ellie Sweet. I'm really shy and I love to write, but not a whole lot of people know about my fictional writings.

Which do you prefer, skirts or dresses?
Skirts are a lot easier to get one, but I like dresses best.

What's your favorite motivational song?
There are so many. 'Gold' by Britt Nicole. 'Happy' by Pharrel Williams. 'Unstoppable' by Tobymac. 'Let it Go' by Idina Menzel. (and a lot more)

Do you prefer a Kindle or a book?
Kindle books are a lot cheaper, but I love reading paperback or hardback books more than anything.

Do you think #7 is a big deal?
Hmm... yes. I can't read classics on a Kindle. But I can pretty much read any modern books on a Kindle. It's weird to be to think that some books have batteries.

Would you rather turn into a turtle for a month or a panda?
A panda. They're cuter and faster.

Do you prefer C. S. Lewis or J. R. R. Tolkien?
This is such a hard question. I love C.S Lewis' books, but I adore how Tolkien used the ring to represent sin. I like them both the same!

Do you prefer drawing or writing?
Writing, definitely. I stink at drawing.

My Questions

This are all going to sound the same because I'm thinking of them at the top of my head.

1. Frozen or Tangled?
2. What is your favorite genre to read?
3. What is your favorite music genre?
4. What is your favorite book?
5. What is your favorite accent?
6. Favorite actress?
7. Favorite actor?
8. Favorite action movie?
9. Favorite award show?
