blogging break + random photos







Life has become REALLY busy here lately, so I decided I would go ahead and stop blogging for a while. Not permanently (you cant get rid of me that easy xD), but until life slows down a bit. Maybe a month or so.

Before I leave, I'd like to thank all of you for reading my blog, for all of the sweet comments you leave, and for hitting that "follow" button. It means so much to me. It really does!

So adios, my friends. I'll be back soon!

 
What have you been up to? How's school going? What's the weather like where you live? Let's chat in the comments :)

THE QUESTIONS FROM KENDRA





1. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU AND YOUR MC SWITCHED PLACED FOR THE DAY?

It depends on the day really ;) I would really freak out if I was my MC for the beginning of my book but if I was her for the end then I think I would be quite happy :)

 

2. WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE MUSIC ARTIST?


Ummmmm... I cant really think of one.

 

3. GRAB THE NEAREST BOOK (THAT ISN'T A SCHOOL-BOOK OR LIFESTYLE BOOK) AND TURN TO PAGE 53, FIND THE FIFTH SENTENCE AND THE FIRST FIVE WORDS IN THAT SENTENCE. ADD "HUMPTY-DUMPTY" AT THE END OF THOSE WORDS
 
"But Amy had not forgotten Humpty Dumpty." :D The book I used was "Little Women."

 

4. DO YOU LIKE DEVILED-EGGS?
 
Oh yes!!!
 
5. WHAT SONG DECRIBES YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW?
 
Sorry but I cant think of one ;)
 
6. WHO IS ONE ROLE MODEL IN YOUR LIFE?
 
Haralan Popov
 
7. WHAT SONG DID YOU LAST LISTEN TO OR WHAT SONG ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

A song from the 2016 "The Jungle Book" soundtrack.
 
8. WHAT DO YOU ENJOY THE MOST?
 
I enjoy a lot of different things. Going on rides in the country with the windows down when it's really nice outside always makes me happy though :)
 
9. FAVORITE TEMPERATURE?
 
Sunny and mid 80's with low humidity! Ahhhhh....
 
10. WHAT DID YOU LAST DREAM ABOUT?
 
Our church having TONS of visitors (like 100+) and they were staying at our missionary room.
 
11. IF YOU COULD MARRY A FICTIONAL GUY WHO WOULD IT BE?
 
This is tough. I cant really think of just one. I like the character traits of a lot of fictional people. Jonas, Luke, and Quinn from my books would be nice. But also Gilbert Blythe, Marcus O'Malley, and Mr. Darcy. I honestly cant pick one.

I like to do a lot of things in my free time. Reading, writing, photography, and blogging are just a few.

- went to said friend's birthday party

- Right before we went in to get our flu shots:
ben: "I'm so nervous that I think my stomach has the crevins."
me: "The what?"
ben: "The crevins."
me: ???
me: ???
me:



- ben: *after getting the flu shot* "I'm gonna have to have my arm amputated. It's gonna turn green and it's gonna fall off in my sleep."


- I drove a lot.
