Tags From Taters, Ryann, and Daddy's Lioness

I am going to to an entry about tags that I need to do, so here are one from Tatertots, two from Ryann, and one from Daddy's Lioness. Thank you, girls!

Tag 1: From Taters

Here are the rules:

(1) The player starts with eight random facts about herself/himself.

(2) The person who is tagged must post her/his answers, and she/he must post the rules first.

(3) Then the player must pick eight people and tag them. Then leave them a note so that they will know they have been tagged.

1. I am very particular about my diet. (Though I love going out to dinner at resturants(spelling) which happens so rarely that I LOOVE it!) And I was doing TAEBO for a while but I pretty much dropped off.

2. I truly enjoy everything about words!

3. I enjoy reading C.S.Lewis's theology books. So far, I have read "Mere Christianity" and "The Screwtape Letters". He is not reformed and he doesn't believe in predestination, but I have learned much from him.

4.  I absolutely love Trader Joe's dried apricots!

5. I don't like kissing in movies, because usually, the actors/actresses are not married-or even engaged!

6. I am not very diligent.

7. Classical music is my favorite style.

8. I could tell my mother anything, and she wouldn't mock me.

I tag: Well, I need to come back to this because we need to clean up our house, so bye! 

 

 

And here is the first tag from Ryann:

1. What state do you live in? California


2. Do you have a pool? No, sadly.


3. Do you like animals? Indeed!


4. What is your favorite animal? A dog, I guess.


5. Do you have siblings? Yes, four-I am the oldest.

6. Do you have an account on a animal site such as Virtual Horse Ranch or Virtual Pups? No, I don't even know what those sites are.

7. Which 10 people are you going to tag with this annoying quiz? It's not long enough; whoever wants to can take it.

 

Tag 2: From Ryann

Name three things that are physically close to you: The desk, the computer, the keyboard.

What is the last book you read? Lady of Palenque: Flower of Bacal it's a book in the series called "Royal Diaries". Rating....It is an informative cultural study and interesting, but if you are looking for a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat, this isn't it. The whole series is about girls and, presumably, for girls. While a lot of the books are enjoyable for girls and boys, this might not be the very best for the latter.

Are you or were you a good student? Ask someone else, like my mother.

What's your favorite sport?  Swimming.

What's your favorite food? I don't know

Do you like the smell of gasoline? NO!

Do like to draw? Yes.

What's your favorite invention? The book.

Is your room messy? *chagrin* Yes.

What do you like better: oranges or apples? Oranges.

Do you give in easily? Huh! No. At least, not inwardly.

Are you a good guesser? Mmm, sometimes.

Can you read other people's expressions? Often.

Are you a bully? I hope not!

Do you have a job? Yes, chores.

What time did you wake up this morning? I don't know, I didn't look.

What did you eat for breakfast this morning? Bob's Red Mill cereal with raisins, small apple slices, and a little bit of milk. It was tasty!

When was the last time you showered? Don't ask. (A few days ago)

What do you plan on doing tomorrow? Going to the co-op that we do with several other families, and glorifying God.

What's your favorite day of the week and why?  Sunday: I get to go to church and see my friends!

What does your last text message say? I don't text message.

What's your favorite school subject? Does reading count? If not, history.

What's your least favorite school subject? I don't know; I like them all!

What is your dream vacation? Going to the UK--and seeing, in person, the Loch Ness Monster! Yes, I think it is probably real--at least I hope so!

What is your favorite animal? A dog, I suppose.

Do you miss anyone right now? Now that you mention it, yes.

Do you need to do laundry? Ah, yes, that.

Do you listen to the radio? Not really.

Where were you when 9/11 happened? In the living room watching it on television in confusion. It was my second youngest sister's birthday.

What do you do when vending machines steal your money? I hardly ever use them.

Have you ever caught a butterfly? Yes.

What color are your bed sheets? A very light lavender.

What's your ringtone? Ringtone?

Who was the last person to make you laugh? My splendid sister.

Have you ever sat on a roof? I don't believe so.

Have you ever been to a different country? No, I've never even been out of my native state!

Name three things in the world you dislike: Immorality, tight clothes and public school's teaching.

Do you like sushi? Yes, the kinds I've tasted.

 And here is the tag from Daddy's Lioness:

Ok, I so don't remember tagging you, ever. Has it been that long since I last blogged? :-P
I also don't know why I would tag you with all of those questions....I already knew all of it. :-P
Well, I tried calling you a couple days ago. No answer, but I left a message. I guess I'll try to call you later. I wrote you a letter and we sent you a video of our family. Let me know when it reaches you.
Your friend that you just simply ignore (just trying to make you feel bad and call me--heehee-just kidding). I miss you! Hope to talk to you soon,
Ryann

About Me

I am thirteen, going on fourteen, year-old girl; a Christian, given many blessings by God Almighty, who loves me and mine. I love to retire into the inner analyzing processes of my brain, and contemplate the conundrums of life. I love a hug and a kiss from my siblings and parents; an encouraging word when I am low; a genuine smile. I love deep, thought-provoking, meaningful conversations. I love the satisfaction which comes from home-made, freshly baked loaves of bread. I love delving into a world of wonder in a good book. I love learning about how America's system of government works and the results of it--in short, politics. I love the variety of science, applied science, and technology. I am literarily oriented, so I love to work with words and write poetry, stories, and blog entries. I love a jovial sense of humor. I love classical, country, and quality Christian music. I love to dance. I love to laugh, converse, encourage, and interact with friends, whisper secrets and discoveries to my sister at night when we should probably be asleep, and keep my things organized. I love--in a magnanimous way--the pursuit of knowledge. I love, hopefully most of all, being God's child and experiencing the awesome wonder of His grace.
