In case anyone would like more questions... 1. Who is your favorite fictional hero? 2. Who is your favorite fictional heroine? *Huhhh... could you give more context to this question? I am not a fan of _super_heroes in general, but I don't know if that's what you're talking about. :P* 3. What do you have hanging up on the walls in your room? *A pair of posters from my graduation last year, a map of the US and another of the world, a picture frame with the Minica family coat of arms, some more frames with each of our (the boys') names and what they mean - I forget what they call those... And some other things, but that's most of it.* 4. Who is the last person you talked to on the phone? *Someone from our church about Bible Bee.* 5. What is your favorite quote? *Ahhh... Maybe that one by Ronald Reagan, that they seem to play at some point during every Christian film that has anything to do with politics and government. It's long, but it starts like this: "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction..." and ends something like this: "...then you and I may well spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it once was like in America when men were free."* 6. How many verses did you have due to review today? *20* 7. What are about five things that made you happy this week? *This week? What happened again this week? xP Uh, let's see... finishing up reading my 1000-plus-page study guide the first time through; playing with my many little siblings; my new hens are starting to lay; watching the amusing "Mystery Box Auction" at church; and, uh, hearing that my new favorite song is performing extremely well on the charts. xD* 8. What is your favorite type of cheese? *Colby Jack, I guess* 9. What is your favorite thread on these forums? *^Ahehe. All these favorites questions. You know, I'm just brainstorming for a good answer so these probably aren't really my favorite. xP^ I assume you mean besides Social Chatting, I guess the Prayer Requests thread. And maybe the Music thread.* 10. When is the last time you were sick? *I don't remember... I remember the last time I wasn't feeling well, but that was right after a fast, so it doesn't exactly count, I don't think. :P* 11. The book or the movie? *Welllll... I think the book is almost always better, but the movie takes less time. xP* 12. What's your favorite outfit to wear? *A Bible Bee t-shirt and shorts/jeans. Or maybe khakis. xD* 13. Fiction or nonfiction? *That depends on the genre... both, I guess (I don't have time to give a full analysis of what types of fiction/nonfiction I like best. xP)* 14. What is your favorite day of the week? *Right now, Saturday... not much unusual happens on the other days. Though, Friday is always fun. xD*

In case anyone would like more questions... 1. Who is your favorite fictional hero? *I have no clue. xD* 2. Who is your favorite fictional heroine? *Again, no clue.* 3. What do you have hanging up on the walls in your room? *My bulletin board, a copy of Van Gogh's Sunflowers, a plaque my parents made with each of the letters in my name made by an animal, and a poster that Bethany and Zeke made me for Christmas.* 4. Who is the last person you talked to on the phone? *My mom, probably.* 5. What is your favorite quote? *"I used to ask God to help me. Then I asked if I might help Him. I ended up by asking God to do His work through me." --Hudson Taylor* 6. How many verses did you have due to review today? *Probably a lot. I've really been slacking on my verses.* 7. What are about five things that made you happy this week? *Our ballet studio's cast party (duh), going on a bike ride with Bethany, hanging out with Zeke, getting an A+ on my research paper, chatting around a fire with a bunch of my friends from youth group.* 8. What is your favorite type of cheese? *Dubliner. It's an Irish cheese, and it has the taste of an extremely sharp cheddar and the texture of Parmesan.* 9. What is your favorite thread on these forums? *What Would Happen If* 10. When is the last time you were sick? *I can't even remember. It probably doesn't help that in the springtime I can't distinguish between a cold and allergies, so I might have been sick and not known it. xD* 11. The book or the movie? *The book* 12. What's your favorite outfit to wear? *My Cherished Girl "Let your light shine" t-shirt and my denim skirt. It also happens to be the outfit I'm wearing in my profile picture. xD* 13. Fiction or nonfiction? *Generally fiction* 14. What is your favorite day of the week? *I'd have to say Saturday.*

Emily chatted on SC!!!

11. The book or the movie? *The movie [hides]*

Whaaaaat? And after all this talk about how reading is soooo important. xP xP jkjk

Emily chatted on SC!!!

Yeah My dad kept saying 'time to do school work…' I was like 'I never talk to Emily!!!!! just 10 more minutes!' xP

Hero = Male main character and Heronie = Female main character. At least, in my mind. :P

Okay, that works. Hmm… Male, perhaps Ishmael Worth, or maybe the Humbug from The Phantom Toolbooth. xP Female, probably Capitola Black (or, as Courtney kept insisting, LeNoir). :P

Emily chatted on SC!!!

Yeah My dad kept saying 'time to do school work...' I was like 'I never talk to Emily!!!!! just 10 more minutes!' xP

And I missed it!! :( xP Oh well, maybe next time.

Hello?

Sarah! :D

Glory!!!!!

Uli (one of the twins) woke up this morning with a runny nose, and a fever. He also has a very itchy mosquito bit (he is very allergic to them). The landlord came to take a look at the apartment, and afterwards invited us out for coffee, but because someone had to look after the boys Richard and I stayed behind, and Sara went. She didn't want to go, but someone had to… Uli screamed, and threw the biggest fit at the door when she left. I encountered Richard that we should take the boys outside to walk because I had this idea that because the house is "mommy's domain" as long as we were inside Uli would always have mommy on his mind. So after maybe a half hour of screaming Uli I finally convinced Richard to go for a walk. As soon as we got out of the apartment Uli was happy. It was like magic, and he was happy as long as we were walking outside. When we went back inside (like a 45 minutes later) Sara was back.

What did you do today?

Glory!!!!!

xD
