Fact 1: I have suddenly forgotten everything about myself.

Fact 11: I'm sorry, but I am not Batman. The truth is...I am Iron man--Wait what?!


Now, to answer Isabella/Caitlyn's questions that were posed to me in a very mysterious manner...Jk! They were posed in a very natural and intelligent form. ;)

1.) What is your favorite kind of pie?
Whoa! There are just SO MANY choices! I would have to say that my favorite is either pecan pie or pumpkin pie.

2.) If you were ruler of the universe, what laws would you make?
I wouldn't actually have a whole lot of laws, and that's probably because I would be a pretty awful ruler in general... I think that one law would probably be that everyone is entitled to their own veiw of life, and it's everyone's job to respect that. (Did this post just get deep?)

3.) What's your favorite joke?

WHAT KIND OF QUESTION IS THIS? 
Uuuuhhh, I have a new favorite everyday, but one of my favorites is this one:

Person A: Why did the chicken cross the road?
Person B: Seriously? 
-Awkward pause-
Person B: *deep sigh* I don't know, why?
Person A: To get to the house of the most awesome person ever.
Person B: *Confused glare*
-Awkward pause-
Person A: Knock Knock
Person B: *"Are you serious" look* Who's there?
Person A: The chicken.

4.) Donuts or Bagels?
Donuts! They're more fattening, but who cares!?


5.) List your favorite words.
Wow, really, there are so many...can I just say every word ever? That's the truth, I love all words. Words are my favorite!

6.) If you had a theme song (like Darth Vader does) what would it be? (If you can't think of a specific song, what genre would it be?)
"Sunshine On My Shoulders" by John Denver for very obvious reasons. Why yes, it would be kind of slow to walk into the room, but I could just do ballet or something.


7.) Would you rather have a big house or little house? Why?
Well, I would like a little house because it's cute and cozy, but "The Three Little Ones" have always dreamed of having a house big enough for all of them to live in someday. So, I'm really at a crossroads here...


8.) What is something you are proud of?
I'm proud that God loves me even though I'm pretty, well, human.


9.) What is something you are embarrassed about?
Thanks for asking my nightmare question...haha! I'm embarrassed that I spend so much time doing nothing. I live in this beautiful world, and I just spend my day on my electronics. Also, one time I forgot to wear deodorant to church, and I thought my bestfriend forgot because of the smell. So, yea, that was kind of embarrassing. 


10.) Who is your fantasy crush?
All time? Probably Edmund Pevensie or Gilbert Blythe. What's not to love about either of them? 

11.) What is the most bazaar thing that has ever happened to you?

 Gosh, I don't know! There really isn't a whole lot of bazaar things that have happened to me. Seriously, I can't even think of one. I'm pretty boring.  

Everyone that I follow has already been nominated, except for Josie, so I nominate Josie, she's pretty great! 

My questions for Josie:

Do You want to build a snowman?

Do you like the sky?

Favorite animal?

Are you high key or (wait for it) Loki?

What's your favorite season?

If you could be anyone for a day, who would you be?

Who was your first fictional crush?

Would you rather be a unicorn or a centuar?

What's your favorite bible verse?

Where do you go when you're mad?

What's Scotland's national animal?

Thanks again to Isabella/Caitlyn for nominating me! You're really too kind!

Wednesday's Ray: Prom Is Unimportant

     Ah, yes, Prom. 
   Prom seems so important. So desirable
   "You're so worthless if you don't go to prom." 
   "WHAT? YOU'RE NOT GOING TO PROM?!"
   For a long while I thought that everyone wanted to go to Prom, and that somehow that meant that I had to go. You know, because Prom is so important and essential to life. Now, as you probably know, I'm homeschooled, so Prom is especially pointless. Like, what is the point? I really don't get it. Let's break it down.
   If you don't go to Prom, are you going to die?
   No.
   If you don't go to Prom, are your future plans and ambitions going to be stunted?
   No.
   If you don't go to Prom, are you going to die--Oh, wait, sorry, I already asked that one.
   It looks like Prom is quite unimportant. I mean, if you want to party with a bunch of hormonal highschoolers, then, please, be my guest. Personally, I've always felt that society puts a certain emphasis on Prom. Like seriously, going to Prom is not going to change your life. At least, I hope not, because that would just be weird. I mean think of how that would sound.
   "Going to Prom changed my life!"
   "How can you say all these things when you've never even experienced anything like prom?" I hear you asking.
   Well, believe it or not, I have been to a school dance. It was sort of like a semi-formal. I found it to be okay. That's it. But Prom is waaay different than semi-formal, believe me.  Yea, there's more people, and fancier clothing on everyone, and probably better food. Wow, sounds exhilarating. I might need a minute to process this one. 
.
.
.
   Okay, I've processed the information, and Prom still looks unimportant. If you desire to go, then go. I'm not trying to stop you from going, that's not my job. My job, however, is working at a golf course--wait what?! I'm getting of subject here! 
   I'm just trying to help you understand that if you choose/chose not to go to Prom, then so what? If people in your life shoot you down for staying home and reading a book, then those people need to get out of your life. They don't understand how important books are, and nobody can afford to live with such negativity. 
   Okay, I'm done ranting about the unimportance of Prom. You can go back to your life now. 
   (Just a side note: "Prom proposals"? Uh, no. You're not getting married, you're going to go to a dance together. What is this nonsense? Just ask her, you know, by walking up to her and asking her to go with you. Simple.)
