Hello again, my fantastic friends and watchers!

I just thought I'd update my journal again, because it's been a while since I last did.
Things have been going wonderfully for me lately! Everything's just really great right now!

Most of it's just little things and stuff that I'm not going to bother going into detail about, but I think you guys get the idea.

I might have some actual news to share sometime soon, but I don't really have anything at the moment. I'm just enjoying my four-day weekend right now!

Now for a meme that

tagged me to do!

1. You must post the rules!
2. Each person must post 11 facts about themselves in their journal!
3. Then answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post
and think of 11 new questions for the new people to answer!
4. Tag 11 new people and post their icons in your journal!
5. Go to their page and tell them you've tagged them!
6. No tag backs 1. Most of my friends consider me to be a very funny person, but I make jokes on the spur of the moment and can rarely be funny on command.
2. I like painting my fingernails and toenails bright colors in the summer!

Pink, orange, blue or anything like that!
3. I check my dA waaay more often than I check my email or Facebook.

4. I've been told that I always sit up straight, even though I don't really realize it myself. Sitting in a lawn chair, riding an ATV, apparently whatever I'm doing I keep superb posture.

5. I have very low tolerance for lack of common sense and stupidity in general.

6. Back when I was in my young teens, two of my closest friends also had first names that started with the letter "A". The three of us were practically inseparable, to the point where our other friends started calling us "The A Team."
(One of those two girls is still my best friend. Unfortunately the other one and I don't talk much anymore.
)7. I grew up watching Winnie the Pooh and I still love the old shows.

8. I love the smell of the air outside when it rains!

9. I love my coffee too! 8D
10. I don't make a habit of comparing myself to fictional characters, but my sister often tells me that Arisa Uotani from Fruits Basket is like an exaggerated and Anime version of me. I see her point too.

Tall, blonde, stands up for her friends,
sometimes a little violent towards those who are mean to her friends, and tends to make her emotions obvious.
11. I'm the notorious daydreamer in my family.

Always spacing out or listening to music...
1) What do you do to relieve stress?
Sketching usually seems to help me clear my mind.

2) Do you like soup? Tell me a few of your favorite kinds!
Love soup, especially during the fall and winter when it's chilly outside! My favorites are garlic soup and my mom's super awesome potato soup!

3) Name someone who was a role model to you during your childhood. They can be a fictional character, a historical figure, your mom... who?
I had a lot of role models, but the one that sticks out the most in my memory would have to be Aravis from C.S. Lewis' book
The Horse and His Boy. When I was in my young teens I always admired her no-nonsense attitude and confidence. She's still my favorite character from the Narnia series!

4) Are they still a role model for you?
I don't still think of Aravis as my "role model," but I still have some of the traits that I think were enforced in my personality back when I was such a big fan of hers.

5) Pie is good. What's your favorite kind of pie? If you don't like pie, then tell me your favorite kind of ice cream. If you don't like pie or ice cream, what's wrong with you!? D8
That's a tough one.

I LOVE pie, but I I'm not sure if I can decide on a favorite kind!

Probably apple or pumpkin pie.

6) Would you EVER consider becoming a vegetarian?
Nope.

7) Speaking of that, are you more of a meat and potatoes kind of person or do you gravitate towards fruits and veggies?
Actually, I'm the kind of person who enjoys a steak with a side salad.

So I like both, but if I had to choose between just the two I'd probably say that I'm a meat and potatoes kind of person.
8) If you could switch lives with one REAL person, who would you switch with? (It can be a person from any time period, but not a fictional character)
I don't think I would switch with anyone.

I'm pretty happy with my life and I can't think of any real person that I would rather be.
9) If you were to suddenly get sucked into an animated Disney movie, which movie would you want it to be?
Being a life-long Disney fan, I'm finding this question to be nearly impossible to answer!

Do movies made by Disney and Pixar count? If they do I think I'd have to go with
The Incredibles, because I want to have the power to fly!

10) Describe the scenery where you live. Are there evergreen trees outside? Rushing rapids a block from your house? Is it all desert? Are you surrounded by skyscrapers? What?
Well, there's trees, trees and some more trees. Oh, and there's some trees too!

No, seriously we live in the country. We're surrounded by what we refer to as "the woods."

Although we're not alone out here or anything like that. Some of our nearby neighbors even keep cattle and horses!

11) And for the last question, let's play that "would-you-rather" game that was so popular a while back. Would you rather visit that far-off country that you always talk about, or travel to your favorite period in history?
TO ENGLAND!

And I'm not going to ask any questions or tag anyone.
Because I'm lazy. XDOh, in the box below I'm going to keep on featuring the lovely gifts I got for my birthday last month!

I know that it was a while ago, but some of my friends were busy in April and decided to be seriously awesome and make me belated gifts.

I just want to give them a chance to be featured too!
Be sure to check out the one from ~HeartlessKairi She just finished it and it's lovely!
