Tagged!

I got tagged by Journey over at A Writer's World! I found this button to go with it and for the people I'm tagging. =)

Rules:

-You must answer the eleven questions the tagger has given you and make eleven questions for the people you are going to tag

-Next, tag eleven more bloggers

-Tell the people you have tagged that you tagged them

-No tagging back!

Here are the questions she asked, with my answers.
1) Do you like math? Not really. It's not the worst subject ever, but it's not the best. (IMO)
2) If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? Hmm... I would like to go to so many places, I couldn't choose just one. Here's two- Hawaii and Sydney.
3) What is your fav color? PURPLE!!! =D
4) How do you overcome writers block? Well, I sit and think. And I write in a journal. Not actual stories, I just write about my life. Sometimes I let the story sit for a while and just plain out forget about it (not forget forget, just not have it on my mind). I do this ['forget' about it] so my mind isn't overwhelmed with just that one thing. Then I [usually] get a really good idea for it at a random time and write it down. =)
5) If you could have one superpower, what would you have? Shape shifter. That way I could be anything.
6) What was the longest book you ever read? Write the page number if you know it. Bleh, I have no idea! The Harry Potter and Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus are really long and I've read all of those.
7) What is your favorite genre of fiction novels? Fantasy!!!
8) ???
9) If you were on a deserted island what three things would you bring with you? Um... Matches, one of those special blankets that keep the heat in, and a buddy. =P
10) Up or down? Up!
11) Right or left? Right!

Now I get to make up questions!!
1) Do you like One Direction? (lol I always ask that one)
2) If you answered yes to #1, then who is your fav out of the band? If not, then who is your favorite celeb?
3) What is your favorite TV show?
4) What is one of your favorite books?
5) What is your favorite sport?
6) What do you do for fun?
7) How do you post on Blogger? (mobile app, laptop, desktop, etc)
8) Who is your favorite actress? (not actor or singer)
9) Taylor Swift or Selena Gomez?
10) Cat or Dog?
11) Bird or Horse?

I like putting it on for videos (music videos) and to horse around with my friends. Every time I go to a friends house I bring my make up. Just ask Maddie, Amelia, and Daylily! I like it because it makes me feel special. Like, "Look at me, I'm wearing make up!" Awkward but true answer. :-)

Working on it...

Shopping!

Yesterday my grandmother and I went shopping at the mall. Our first stop was Sephora, where I got Wonderstruck, the perfume from Taylor Swift. I got the little roll on kind because the regular size is $50!!! Then we looked at the Apple Store, and I was a little depressed because everything is so high-tech and expensive! After that we went to California Pizza Kitchen, I had a delish personal pizza and I ate all of it! We went to Aeropostale after lunch. I was really excited because it was my first time and there was a big sale going on. I got a lot of stuff and I was really happy!

Tank Tops

 

Pants

PJs!

OMG Comfy Pants

I don't surf but oh well!

After Aero we stopped at Justice because in the e-letter there was this adorable dress that I had to have! I will post a picture of it on me soon.

My Story

The Frog and the Wig
a story by purple pixie


One day Mr. Frog and Miss Woodchuck went out together to take a stroll around the lake. The lake was a fine place, where many couples would go to take a boat out or go for a stroll.

Just before Mr. Frog set out to meet Miss Woodchuck, he looked at himself in the hall mirror. “My!” he exclaimed, “This will never do! I have no hair, and Miss Woodchuck greatly adores the look of hair on animals!” So he hopped into his bedroom, where he looked around for something he could wear as a wig. He finally found what he could use. As he cut and glued, cut and glued, Mr. Frog kept glancing at the clock. There. He was done. As he popped the wig on his head, he took one last look at the clock. 3:26 He had just four minutes until Miss Woodchuck would start wondering. He hopped as fast as he could without working up a sweat.

When he reached Miss Woodchuck’s burrow, he called, “Miss Woodchuck, I’m here!” Her head was down because she was wiping dirt off her dress. “Sorry, I was just doing my hair. . . Um, do you like rupees? She hastily changed the subject as soon as she looked at Mr. Frog. “Er. . . I like U.S. dollars, I have no need for Indian rupees Miss Woodchuck. . .” They continued with their talk this way until they finished their stroll. As they parted ways, Miss Woodchuck called out, “I like you much better, Mr. Frog, bald. Please don’t cut up mops, glue them to baseball caps, and call it hair. Goodbye!”

And everyone laughed at poor Mr. Frog!

Orlando!!

Hi Everyone!
I have so much news!! My parents surprised me in December, and we went to Orlando! Here's how it happened:
   I was sleeping when my mom came in with a bag about 3:00 am. She woke me up and told me to get dressed in the the clothes that were in the bag. Then she left. I got the clothes on and went into the hall. After all my sisters were in the hall, my mom did our hair. Then we went down stairs. And to our surprise there was four suit cases! Our initials were on them! After breakfast, we got in the car and went to the airport where we met up with our grandparents! It seemed to take forever to get on the plane, but once we were on it the ride there seemed to take forever! :-P We went to Universal Studios, and we stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel!! Two of my favorite rides was The Incredible Hulk and Harry Potter: The Dragon Challenge!!! I also liked:

• The Spider Man Ride
• The Jurassic Park Rides
• Fear Fall
• THE FORBIDDEN JOURNEY!!!!!! (HP) (So cooool!)
• The Hippogryph! (HP)

We had a ton of fun at Universal! There was a pool with an awesome water slide
After four fun-filled days, on Christmas Eve we were packed up, ready to go home, thinking about setting up our Christmas tree. But when we were in the hired car, we noticed that we weren't headed toward the airport, but...............

DISNEY WORLD, ANIMAL KINGDOM!!!!!

 We stayed at the Animal Kingdom from Christmas Eve (24th) to the 27th! We had so much fun! Our favorite restaurant was The Tusker House. The food was great!! My favorite rides there were:

• Expedition Everest
• Hollywood Tower of Terror!!!
• Rockin' Roller Coaster!!! (Aerosmith!)
• Dinosaur
• Epcot Center Ride
• Mission to Mars
• Test Track

All of the parks and places I went during our stay were totally awesome, and I think that you should go to Disney World (or Disney Land) and Universal someday (soon!!;-))
