Rule I: Post the rules

Rule II: Answer the questions the tagger asked you then make 11 new ones (also tag the tagger)

Rule III: Tag 11 people and link them to your post Rule IV: Let them know you’ve tagged them

1. What is/are your favorite band/s?

I've been into some of my weirder favorites lately. Davy Jones and the Seven Seas (which is only weird to me, I'm not sure it's actually weird), Die Antwoord, J.U.F, Fishtank Ensemble, and the ever present Jelly Roll Morton. 

2. Would you rather have your notp get together or your favorite character will die and never comeback?

Notp.

3. Name a fandom you’re currently in.

Teen Wolf.

4. Where you’d you want to go if you had the chance? 

Anywhere in Europe. Also the west coast of America. More specifically Crater Lake National Park. I have this weird obsession with this place.

5. Your OTP/s?

I don't really have OTPs from TV shows or movies and things. I don't know... Um... I guess I really dig the idea of Issac and Allison from Teen Wolf.

6. Mac and Cheese or Nuggets? (You can’t choose both, you sly fucker.)

Mac and Cheese. I can literally always go for pasta.

7. Favorite genre of music.

Currently ska, classic jazz, and weird folk music that I guess is classified as gypsy jazz.

8. If you could make your own world, what would you put in it? 

Dragons and large cats.

9. Would you rather have your butthole as a USB port or a vagina as a sharpener? 

Vagina. I mean, I use my butt hole for normal human things, but a vagina is almost unnecessary for me.

10. What is the meaning of life in your opinion? 

"I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time."

-Potentially Jack London

I believe the meaning of life is to live as you want, doing what makes you happy and doing those things to the best of your abilities. 

11. What is your favorite book? 

I have quite a few favorite books... Mainly in the colors of red, white, and black. Sorry, it's just a weird coincidence. I want to say the Harry Potter series, but I feel like my favorite may be The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. I really like the way it's written and the character development. It's kind of predictable, yet still surprising in many ways. I like it. 

Alright, my questions:

1. Are you having a good day?

2. Which bands do you dig a lot right now?

3. Who is your favorite author?

4. What's something you know you do differently than most people?

5. If you were an animal, which would you be?

6. What is one thing you're afraid of?

7. Do you get to do something you love frequently?

8. What is guaranteed to make you smile?

9. What are five adjectives that describe you?

10. Have you done anything lately that is worth remembering?

11. Has there been a small act of kindness done for you that you will never forget?

What are you thankful for today?

Ope, I forgot to answer this yesterday, sorry.

I’m thankful for the past; all the things I’ve done or that have happened to me and how they have shaped me in the present. Even the things I regret doing, they’re few but they exist. Well, here are some of the better stories:

First, I’m thankful for the end table I ran into as a small child… The story my parents tells goes like this: I was never a very funny child, it was like I was almost too intelligent to be funny. I started walking early, talking early, figuring things out early. I skipped the comedy section of my development. But one day I was running around like small children do, and I ran right into an end table. My mother and father, both in the room, asked if I was okay. My reaction was to laugh and run away. According to my parents, from that day on, I’ve been funny. I enjoy being funny and making people laugh is something I love to do.

Soon I grew older, as all people do, and I went off to school. School was always fun and easy for me, the academic portion I mean. Children are nasty little things. I was often left alone at recess, and I sat quietly in classes. I did have a few friends, often boys, who would let me play tag with them. There were people that would talk to me occasionally and sometimes we would get in trouble during class. But most of time, I was ignored, even bullied. As I said, children are nasty. Eventually it became better, specifically once I hit high school, but good things have come out of the bad. For example, because few people would play with me, and after some influence, I discovered the amazing act of reading books. To this day I still love books, and I will always love reading. And because I was on the receiving end, I know what it’s like to be bullied or forgotten. I’m a nice person. Nicer than some of my friends for sure. I enjoy being nice; people seem to like that I am. I’m even nice to the people capable of making me angry. Being kind, just seems like the appropriate thing to do in almost all situations. 

In the later years of elementary school, and later in high school, I gave in to some positive peer pressure. In sixth grade, students had the choice of participating in band Mondays, Wednesdays, and some Fridays during lunch recess. The people I hung out with, at this time I could even say friends, were going to join band. I had never really thought about it, and if it weren’t for peer pressure, I probably never would have joined. But I did. Seven years later I’m still in band… I’m Drum Major and 1st tenor sax in both concert and jazz band. I’ve earned a few awards, best quartet in a room during Solo and Ensembles, and the Monte Johnson marching award being two of my larger ones. I’m the person my band directors go to if they need a part filled in something. Band is a huge part of my life. If it weren’t for those people who pressured me, ironically only one is still in band, I wouldn’t have discovered something I love. After joining band, I met more friends. Eventually one of these friends would introduce me to theater. My freshman year of high school I tried out for the play. No luck, it was a junior and senior play that year. But my friend was determined. The next year we both tried out, and I somehow managed to land a part as Amy in Little Women. I loved it. It helped that the rest of the cast was very cool. I made friends with a lot more people. I’ve participated in six productions since then, and I love it. I’m actually going to at least minor in theater in college. Those friends I made were also in band and convinced me to partake in pit orchestra for that year’s musical, Anything Goes. I love pit so much. I’ve been in five pit orchestras so far. And I only have my friends’ positive peer pressure to thank for that and so much more.

My past, as I’m sure it is with most people, has made huge impacts on who I am today. I’m thankful for everything, even the bad events, and all the people who helped influence me to be who I am. I like who I am; I think I’m a good and dedicated person. 

I have to mention that I’m thankful of all the new people I’ve met this year and my friends. Also my cats. AND OF YOU, TUMBLR AND TUMBLR USERS.
