Haha, a lot of our answers are the same. We both live in farmland apparently, and we've both had Been Bozzled Jellybeans xD

4. Do you drink your tea or coffee with sugar? Do you even drink tea or coffee?

Both with sugar.  Tea is NOT meant to be hot or without sugar.  It's cold and served with lots of sugar and lemon.  Coffee I just use an absolutely unholy amount of cream and sugar so I've probably shaved like ten years off my life with it but I really don't care.

Anne of Green Gables!  Still is my favorite book.

11. Who is a mentor to you?

My mom, best friend, and dance teacher.



12. Would you ever want to be famous? If so, what for?

13. Are you a restless sleeper?

Depends.  I'm an insomniac so it varies.

All the loved ones I've had who died.



18. Tell me about an early childhood memory.

Mmm... the day I became a Republican!  When I was about three years old, my dad went to go vote, and took me with him.  At this particular voting station, they had a children's "vote".  Basically checking off the box next to whichever candidate we wanted for President.  My dad had prepped me before we went in that they had it, so when the attendants came over and knelt down and asked me who I was voting for, I lifted my chin and firmly and loudly gave the name of the Republican candidate.  Yes, my dad was quite pleased.

I have absolutely no idea, I've never cared much about that garbage.



27. Do you prefer your cereal crunchy or soggy? Do you even like cereal?

Crunchy and yes, I do.



28. What would you want you legacy to be? 

A ministry for the Lord!  Like Rachel Joy Scott said, "I'm not going to be ashamed for speaking the name Jesus... If I have to sacrifice everything... I will." Rachel also said many other things, and is one of my role models.  I wish to be a light like her.  "I'm not going to hide the light that God has put in me."  Like her, I want to touch people's hearts.

Absolutely, drives my family ape crazy.  It was a Mandie Mystery.



30. How do you show someone you love them?

Sometimes

Pools, look at my list of fears.



37. What would you do if you found 50$ on the ground?

Well I've had something similar happen. I try to find the owner.  If I'm in a building somewhere I return it to the desk or someone who could try to find who lost it.  If it's somewhere public, I tuck it in a safe place and pray the owner is the one to find it again.



38. Have you ever seen a shooting star? Did you make a wish?

I think once, but I was too in rapture of it to think about wishes.



39. What is something you would want to teach your children? 

That no matter what you do in this world, college or not, marriage or not, worldly success or not, as long as they have God at the center of what they do with their lives, I will always be proud.



40. If you had to have a tattoo, what would it be and where would you get it?

My dad would disown me if I got a tattoo.  But if I had to, it'd probably be a quote somwhere discreet I could hide, like on my back or somewhere.



41. What can you hear right now?

Love Broke Thru by TobyMac.



42. Where do you feel the safest?

My bedroom, I think.  Or in the Smokey Mountains.  Somewhere outside in the wilderness perhaps.

My anxieties.  They're pretty bad and I've had an extremely difficult time coping. I'd love to learn to tackle them.



44. If you could travel back in time to any era, which would you choose?

This is really really hard cause I adore US History and would love to time travel. If I had to choose, I'd say either 1770's and 1780's to see America's Independence being won, or the 1940's.

I don't really have a most used emoji, except for the devil face when I'm driving Teresa bat crazy.

Fall, because it's the season of all the best holidays to come, and warmth, and beautiful colors, and creates a more home-like, family bonded time for me.

Hiking, blogging, photography, dancing, writing... all of my favorite hobbies.



48. Describe yourself using one word.

Eccentric.

To me, I thought it was a tropical bird (I was maybe 7 when this happened) and my dad said "no, no, it is a bear." The reason for this, was because it was getting dark and we had to head home.

Well, we all know (I hope you all know) that turning it into the cops does nothing... Sadly. I'd look around to see if anyone appeared to be putting something in/out of their bag (money drops out that way), or frantically searching around, then ask them. Otherwise, as much as I hate it, I'd keep it.

To be compassionate, loving people to everyone, no matter what their ethnicity, beliefs, religion, or gender.

Here. Now. With people I know and trust (family), in my home.

45. What is your most used emoji? (If you have one. If not, is there a face that you make a lot?)

Laughing with tears. Or, in text form, xD. My actual most common face is my "are you serious?" which is an eyebrow raised, face scrunched in disgust, lips tight. Or in another case, both eyebrows raised, eyes serious and blank like "seriously bro? Seriously?" and straight face.

Then enter, play an hour of gaming, eat lunch outside, watch nature, do artwork and photography (outside), do a few more hours of gaming. Do gardening. Make herbal remedies and teas. Eat dinner.

Compassionate

49. What do you regret the most?

Throwing away friendships, pushing away people.

50. What do you want your future house to look like?

A homestead on a beautiful meadow-like farm with forest lining the outside. My family would be vegetarian, but we'd have teapot pigs (adorable!), goats, sheep, alpaca, rabbits, etc for soaps, milks, wool, and beauty. And cuteness. And it'd be a beautiful, large farmhouse, fashioned similar to an 1800s with a drawing room, chambers, and all. We'd seldom get visitors, being off the grid and everything, and my kids would be home schooled. We'd be stay at home parents, homesteading, and having our own businesses too.

 

I love these questions!! I can't wait to see everyone's answers.
