That’s right, Tag Week has returned! As mentioned in the title, I was tagged for the 2016 Liebster Award by the lovely Monica from Golden Scribblings. Thanks so much for tagging me, Monica! Means the world that you visit and enjoy my blog! :D

As you might recall, I’ve actually done this one before here and also here. But there are new questions this time and they look very cool. So. I am going to answer them.

1. What is your personality type?

So, every time I’ve taken the test, I’ve tested INTJ, and I definitely have A LOT of tendencies for that. However, when I read through the traits that each of the letters actually represents, I can also see myself as ISTJ (used to see think I might be INFJ, too, though not so much anymore). So yeah. Guess I just can’t be put in a box. ;)

2. What is one of  your newest favorite movies?

Honestly, I almost never go to the movie theater. I’m more of a Netflix or Hulu or get-it-from-the-library type of girl; but I did get to see Captain America: Civil War recently. And it was beautiful.

3. Have you ever been prejudiced against a certain movie before watching it, but then after seeing it decided it wasn’t so bad?

ANT-MAN. I thought that movie was going to be the most corny thing ever and I had no intention of seeing it, but my brother and one of his friends roped me into watching it with them and it was great. Full disclosure, there are some content issues, but that movie had me rolling laughing. I’m giggling right now just thinking about it. It was crazy and it was fantastic.

4. If you you could meet any author in person, who would it be?

Jill Williamson. I am not a crier by any stretch of the imagination, but I’m pretty sure I would simply sob overwhelmed with joy if I got to meet her in person.

Or George Lucas, just cause. Technically, he’s a director. But whatever. It’s still storytelling.

5. How many siblings do you have, and where do you fall in the lineup?

Are y’all ready for this? I have... **drumroll please** SEVEN SIBLINGS (which, fun fact, doesn’t seem like that much to me but other people seem to thinks it’s crazy. Anyways). There are eight of us all together, and I am number 2 from the top. So yeah, Big Sister Life, haha.

6. If you could be related to any fictional character, who would it be and what relation would they be to you?

Hmm, I can’t really think of one. Because like, there are a lot of characters I would like to meet, get to know, be BFFs with, but no one I’d really like to be related to. I’m pretty chill with my family as is, I guess. Plus, if I was related to them, I’d also have to take whoever they were related to. You never know what you’re gonna get with that.

7. What is your favorite household chore, and what is your worst?

Unlike Monica, I absolutely cannot cook (has to do with a traumatic sidewalk-brownie experience when I was ten). And I actually don’t mind doing dishes--though it takes forever because of the amount of people in our house, it can be a really nice thirty minutes to think, especially if I’m stuck on a story thing.

Bathrooms, though. I hate to be graphic, but cleaning bathrooms is horrid.

Anyways, moving on.

8. Anne and Diana (from Anne of Green Gables) are a classic example of best friends. Do you have a best friend, and if so which one of you is more like Anne and which is more like Diana?

Yes, and honestly, I don’t think either of us are either. But if I had to say, I’d peg me as Diana and her as Anne, because she’s even more insane than I am and she would be the one dragging me into something crazy (i.e. fandoms, horrible charrie backstories, and the addictive insanity known as anime). Also, “accidentally” giving me wine.

9. What was one of the first chapter books you read? (You know, the one that made you feel so proud because you were reading a “big kids’ book”!)

I don’t actually remember having that moment, but according to my mother, I taught myself to read with Little House on the Prairie when I was 4. So. I’ll go with that answer.

10. What is one of the yummiest, most delicious desserts you can think of at the present moment?

Ice cream. Always ice cream. And I will never regret this gif.

11. If you could be a character in one of your favorite movies, which movie would it be and which character would you choose?

Again, I don’t know. I’m a big fan of self-inserts, but I don’t know if I’d actually want to be any of those characters. I don’t know, I guess I kinda like being me, and I don't know if I'd be me if I was them. However, if I could just be me and take on the role of one of those characters, I would pick Padme in the Star Wars prequels and change everything that happens at the end of ROTS because SOMEHOW I WOULD FIND A WAY TO KEEP THAT WONDERFUL IDIOT FROM GOING DARK SIDE.

And that’s the tag! Because I am feeling ridiculously lazy and I’m frankly kind of bad at coming up with questions, I’m going to use a compilation of throwback ones:

#1 If you could go back in time to any time, what time would it be?

#2 What are your favorite hobbies (besides writing)?

#3 What’s your favorite character you’ve ever written?

#4 Favorite character you’ve ever read?

#5 Favorite outfit?

#6 What do you do to relax?

#7 How many siblings do you have?

#8 Can you think of a single best day of your life?

#9 Do you have an all-time favorite quote/motto?

#10 What are your three favorite movies?

#11 What do you think is the prettiest animal in the universe? (note: I did not say your favorite. I said the prettiest.)

Honestly, tagging people for awards makes me kind of nervous because I know I’m going to forget someone (just the way my brain works. Deepest apologies). But still here goes: I tag Liz, Tori, Heather, C. Lee McKenzie, Ellie, Shar and Shanti, Jessi, Keturah, Skye, Grace, and anyone else who wants to do it. If you’d like to and I didn’t mention your name, I now dub you--yes, you--tagged. Just leave me a link in the comments so I can check out your post. :)

So how are you at cooking? What is your bff dynamic like? For real though, which character would you be in a movie if you could pick one? Hope you enjoyed the post and I’ll see you in the comment section!
