The 11 Tag

I've been tagged by a few of my friends to do this....Amaranthine tagged me, Jamie tagged me, Endor tagged me, and I think a few other friends too! xD
I'll do Jamie's tag, since she tagged me first. XD

The Rules:

1) Post these rules.

2) Post 11 random things about yourself

3) Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post

4) Create 11 new questions for the people you tag to answer

5) Go to their blog and tell them they’ve been tagged

6) No cop-outs in the tagging section like, “If you are reading this” or “if you follow me”. You have to legitimately tag people!

11 Random Things About Me:

1.  I love sushi.  Only me and my dad do in our family, and everyone else thinks I'm crazy. xD

2.  I live about twenty minutes from the beach, but rarely go...which makes me sad, I love the beach. :(

3.  I am in love with Steve Rogers.  Love love love love.  Captain America is my favorite Avenger, and I love him  like crazy. <3

4.  My favorite Disney movie is Meet the Robinsons.  It's one of the most underrated Disney films out there. Which is sad, because it's amazing. :D

5.  I love literature.  I just had to read the Odyssey for school, and as much as I thought it was boring, I really enjoyed it. And I had a 6 hour conversation with my mom about it for our Literature Interpretation course. xD

6.  I know what S.H.I.E.L.D. from the Avengers movies stands for.  Yes, I have it memorized.  Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division.  ;)

7.  My least favorite subject in school has become Science.  I have fallen in love with literature and writing, but science and math are on the end of my list.  I just don't find them as interesting. :P

my current course is the physical science one at the very end of the first row.

8.  I love homeschooling.  I think one of my favorite parts of homeschooling is the annual FPEA Homeschool convention.  I cannot WAIT to go to this year's convention...I love looking at all the curriculum, meeting people, and getting some time to hang at the EPIC hotel. ;D

This picture is from last year's convention,
 when Anakin came with me everywhere. ;)

9.  I have a horrible irrational fear of bugs.  I do not like them, and freak out easily when it comes to insects. xD  Once when I was little, I was playing outside, and a spider crawled on my face.  I screamed, sobbed and freaked out for the rest of that afternoon.  Me + Bugs = TOTAL FREAK OUT. XP

for the record, I absolutely do not like this movie. XDDD

10.  My guilty pleasure is watching Dance Moms.  I am addicted to this show...and I blame Amarantine for this obsession...;P  I plan on watching the latest episode tonight.  :D  Don't you judge me...I know it's stupid and demeaning, but I love it. XD LOL how hypocritical of me.....;P

11.  I'm sick right now.  XD  I have a stomach bug or food poisoning or something.  Yesterday/last night I felt TERRIBLE, and today I'm doing a bit better.  Last night I thought I was dying.....and now I feel much better. I can actually keep down food now, and hopefully I'll be alright.  Who needs comfort food? I have my laptop to help me feel better. ;)

And there you have 11 random things about me. Now to answer Jamie's questions...;)

1. What famous movies have you not seen yet but would like too?

Iron Man 2, Spider-Man 3, and the newest Batman movies.  As for famous /classic/ movies, I really want to see Out Of Africa, Casablanca and Sunset Boulevard. ;)

2. What is your opinion of Charlie Brown?

Classic.  Every single holiday we watch some Charlie Brown film without fail. ;) I'm looking forward to the Easter Beagle. :D

3. Which of your favorite books would you love to see made into a film and why?

Oooh.  Septimus Heap and Mysterious Benedict Society. Mysterious Benedict Society is just crying to be made into a movie, and Septimus Heap the same.  Too good of plots to NOT be made into Major Motion Pictures!!! :D

4. What is one of your favorite pass-times?

Swimming during the summer at my grandma's house.  Staying up and watching tons of movies with my cousin at the vacation house, and taking out annual "girls" trip to Disney. ;) 

5. What type of vehicle would you love to own, from any film, book or even from reality?

An X-Wing. Handsdown an X-Wing.  I'd also like a landspeeder and that cool car from Captain America...

6. What movie poster would you LOVE to own if you could have your pick?

Empire Strikes Back poster.   Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom poster.  Captain America poster. ;)

Yes, all three.  And when The Avengers comes out I DEFINITELY want that poster. ;)

7. What is a minor thing you’d like to see in your future spouse?

Blue eyes.  Not necessary, but I'd LOVE to have a husband with blue eyes. <333 ;)

8. What is your opinion of snakes?

"Snakes...why'd it have to be snakes..." ~Indiana Jones. ;)  I have a thing against snakes since having a terrible dream about them when I was little. I also hate them because my mom does. XD

9. What is a pet peeve you've discovered from being on the blogosphere?

When certain bloggers think they're above others because they have a billion followers.  Most of my favorite blogs only have about 15-50 followers. ;)

10. If you could dress up–without any difficulty or thought of cost–as any character, who would it be?

OOHH.  Real Jedi Robes so I could Cosplay Jedi Mara Jade-Skywalker.  I'd also like to do a totally SA (screen accurate...Savanna's brother Chase taught me that term), Rogue Squadron X-Wing Pilot costume, with a personally designed helmet that would be Fanfic Canon.  ;)  

11. Where would you like to go on vacation this year?

Disney World, Williamsburg Virginia, Orlando/where-i-was-last-weekend, and maybe Illinois, to visit family.  Also anywhere my internet besties live. ;D

Now I write my own questions!!!!

1. What is your favorite time of day?
2. How many (if any) pets do you have?
3. What is your favorite subject in school?
4. Do you have a favorite vegetable?
5. Star Wars: Original Trilogy or Prequel Trilogy?
6. Fanfiction: Yes or No?
7. Do you have multiple blogs, or can you only handle one? ;)
8. If you had three wishes, what would they be?  (no wishing for more wishes!)
9. Do you have a favorite song?  Why do you like it so much?
10. What is your favorite genre to read/write/watch?
11. What is one thing you want to do more than anything else in the world?

Hello There!

Hey friends!!! I've been sorta missing in action for a few days....I better explain why.

Well, last weekend was the highlight of my life thus far.  You're welcome to learn all about that awesome fun on mine and the amazing Savanna's blog:  Fangirls on Felucia.  Here's what you'll find out about......THE BEST WEEKEND OF MY LIFE.  :D

Here's a hint.

Now.  I'm working on some more deep and thought provoking posts that have seemingly taken over my blog and I'm okay with that. ;)  I enjoy writing my thoughts and ponderings and ideas.  That's what Blogging is all about.  I hope my latest post (published probably by the weekend if I get a chance to finish writing it) won't disappoint. ;)

Time For Some Music

I'm in a sing-songy mood right now.....so I'm going to share a few of my favorite songs with you all!!! :D Hope you don't mind! ;)

One of my favorite bands....The Band Perry, is awesome!!!  This was the first song I heard from them, several summers ago!  I love this song so much....I know all the words!!  It's just a cute, feel-good song. ;)

This is my current favorite song (as far as Country Music goes).  Lady Antebellum (my all time favorite band)'s new album Own The Night has me totally hooked.  I got it for Christmas. ;)  This is the single from that album, and I LOOOOOOVE IT.  I just can't stop listening to this song!!!!

Don't you judge me....I know this is a song that was featured on a show on Disney Channel, but i love this song.  Some of the lyrics are wrong, but still, listen to the song itself.  It's EPIC. :D

My favorite song off of the How To Train Your Dragon soundtrack.  That movie has the most BEAUTIFUL music!!! ;D  I'm teaching myself to play this on the viola. ;D

Alright......warning time. This song is called "Party Rock Anthem".  It's my current not-country-or-soundtrack-song.  It is, however, got a few questionable lyrics in there.  If you don't want to see that, don't watch the video or listen too closely to the song.  I still absolutely love this song despite it's few lyric mishaps. xD  It's the ultimate dance song, and party anthem!  ;D

Keith Urban.....mmmhhhmmmm. :D  This is my favorite song by him.  My family and i LOVE it.  :D  It's just so sweet and cute and awesome!!!  I never fail to grin whenever this song plays. ;)

Meet the Robinsons....my favorite Disney Movie. :D It's the best one....really. ;)  And it's soundtrack is wonderful.  This is my favorite song. :D I sing this ALL DAY LONG.  ;D

We warm up the little girls by doing "adagio" to this song.  Essentially, it's do as I do, and we (the teachers) dance up front and the little girls copy us.  I've got it memorized to this song.  Plus, it's my all time favorite Disney classic song. ;D

My sister's ballet song is to this one this year, and I am JEALOUS!!!!!!!!!!  I LOVE THIS SONG.  Seriously, I've liked/loved it for a long time.  I'm gonna learn my sister's dance just so I can enjoy it.  XD

BEST. SONG. EVER.  Nuff Said.

One of my main life-theme-songs.  ;)  Change the lyrics to fit a girl and you've got me. ;D

LOVE. THIS. MOVIE. AND. SONG. SO. MUCH. MUST. HAVE. THE. SOUNDTRACK. NOW.

*bawls*  This is my latest obsession song.  It's gotten me through the past few weeks. ;)  Savanna.....look......it's our song!!!!!  *tackle hugs*

Ooohh....as much as I love the Wicked soundtrack, this might be my favorite song on their.  I didn't listen to it for a while, just the happy, everyone-knows-those-songs, songs....but once I heard it once, I needed to listen to it incessantly until I knew all the words. ;)  It ties with No Good Deed as my favorite. ;D

Thor has an incredible soundtrack.  The music often moves me to tears.  :')

I had to feature Lemonade Mouth.......I am a sucker for a good Disney Channel Original Movie, and this one hit it outta the park.  ;)  That's rare for me to say I actually liked one of the Disney movies, they all seem to be rather shallow, plot non-existent, and stupid.  ;P I love Lemonade Mouth though, and the songs are just great. ;) Tar-Tar, it's our song! :D

My second favorite song on the Thor soundtrack.  Flawless. ;D

IRON. MAN.  I love this song!!!!!! ;D

Owl City has been an obsession of mine for like, forever.  ;)  This song brings back so many good memories!!! ;D  *happy sigh*

I'm not sure on all of the lyrics in this song, just a warning....but it's my song for dance recital this year. :D

My sister's tap song this year.  I know the dance already, and I practice it with her often. ;D

In honor of the release of TPM in 3D that I'm going to see on Friday if it kills me.......;D *MAJOR HINT THERE MOM*

ASDFJKL;ASDFJKL;ADSJFK;LADJFK; ROGUES ASJDKF;LADJLF;KJADJKFL;AJDKL;FJADJL;FK

I absolutely love Vitamin String Quartet.  They are right up my alley! ;)  LOVE LOVE LOVE.

I play this song in Orchestra.....isn't it gorgeous?!  That part in the beginning, right before she starts singing, where the harp plays that series of notes over and over?  Yeah, I play that.  Loudly.  I get to rock it out on my viola because that's a SOLO, BABY! ;) Also, the part where she sings in the break before repeating the beginning, I play that too.  I play lots of this actually.....it's making me very excited. XDD

Too hilarious not to include. ;)

Another new favorite song........Adele.....ROLLING IN THE DEEEEEEEEEEP.  :)  I sing this song all the time.  ALL THE TIME.  With different lyrics too.

Dear Mom:
IONS IN THE CLOUDSSSSSS.......IONS IN THE CLOOUUUUUUUDDDSSSS.  :D

Dear everyone else:
Ignore that last statement.

Thanks for listening!  ;)  I own none of these songs or videos, just the words and stories I put after them. XD
