Tag, You're It!

Kidding, you're not it.
Actually, I am.
I was tagged by Rae. It's for the Liebster Award (whatever that is).

Basically it's when you answer 11 questions from whoever tagged you and then you tag 11 other people. That's all I know about it. (Actually, that's not true, I lied. I Googled it and it's a little complicated, at least I think it is.)
(So, this will be interesting because I don't know if I'll be able to think of 11 people that actually have time to do this.)

Alright then. Ready, set, go!

1. What are your favourite books? (I know it's hard to choose a favourite so you can list as many "favourites" as you have. :)

First of all, thank goodness it's not "what's you're favorite book?" because as an avid reader I have at least a dozen favorite books. (I won't name them all.)

-The Giver by Lois Lowery

-Cheaper By The Dozen by Frank Bunker Gilbreth, jr. and Ernistine Gilbreth Carey.

-The Books of Bayern Series by Shannon Hale

-When Character Was King by Peggy Noonan

-Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling

-The Percy Jackson series and Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan (except for the very last Heroes of Olympus one; I really didn't like that one)

-The Freedom Factor by Gerald N. Lund

-The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey

-The Outlandish Adventures of Liberty Aimes by Kelly Easton

-Made To Stick by Chip Heath and Dan Heath

-and a lot of others ones

2. What type of music do you like best?

Um, I don't really know. I just listen to music I like. I don't listen to a lot of the more popular, last few years type of music...

I like parodies, they're usually pretty good. BYU's Divine Comedy group do some great parodies of popular songs.

3. Do you like Jane Austen? How many of her books have you read and which is your favourite?

I guess I like Jane Austen. I mean, I've only read Pride and Prejudice but I liked it. (I've also seen the the Colin Firth TV version of P&P like a bazillion times.)

4. Do you have a favourite actor/actress? Who?

I don't think I really have a favorite actor or actress. I have ones that I like but none of them are particularly my favorite.

5. What's your favourite flower?

This sounds kind of sad, but I don't have a favorite flower. They're all nice.
I guess maybe roses are my favorite, I don't know.

6. How many books have you read in the last week? Is there one in particular you want to share?

Uh...wow, I guess I've only one book this week. That's pretty sad, no that's terrible. Well, I guess that's only if you mean how many books have I finished. If you mean how many books am I reading at the moment, it's like four or five. Six if you're including Shakespeare.
Right now I'm in the middle of reading Belles On Their Toes which is the sequel to Cheaper By The Dozen by Frank Bunker Gilbreth, jr. and Ernestine Gilbreth Carey. I also just got a load of books from the library.

7. If you could choose between meeting your favourite actor/actress and acting in your favourite movie, which would it be?

Like I said, I don't really have a favorite actor or actress, so I would pick acting in my favorite movie. (Except I don't have a favorite movie either!)

8. Do you play any instruments? What?

Yes. I play the piano.

I've actually skipped around on instruments a lot. I started playing the piano when I was about six and my Mom taught me a like bit but then I got interested in the cello (which my Mom used to play) and I took lessons and then I jumped back to piano. And in between I've done a little bit of the recorder. I've always wanted to learn how to play the harmonica.

9. What hobbies do you enjoy? 

Reading; writing stories, poems, and essays; playing soccer and basketball (not at the same time); singing; playing the piano; laughing; quoting lines and scenes from radio dramas, movies, funny YouTube videos, books, and anything else you can quote.

10. If you could make any book into a movie, what book would it be and do you have any ideas for the cast?

It would be Goose Girl by Shannon Hale. I don't know who'd play who, I just know that they'd have to do a really, really, really good or I would sue them! (Or something like that.)

11. Who's your favourite literary hero?

 I don't know. I think it kind of changes depending on what book I've read recently. Right now it might be Liberty Aimes from The Outlandish Adventures of Liberty Aimes by Kelly Easton. She's just very outgoing and has a great thirst for knowledge and books.

And there we go, all done!

Now, let's see if I can think of anyone to tag...

Okay, I can't think of anyone who isn't busy right now with end of school stuff and other things, so I'm just going to...not tag anyone. Yeah, party-crasher, I know. Sorry!! But seriously, who isn't busy with end of year things and life in general?
(Kind of a depressing way to end. My apologies.)
