10. Ten reasons why it's good to be you.
1. I'm female. (What? I like it lol)
2. I have great parents.
3. I have really devoted friends that I can rely on.
4. Will. That guy I kinda sorta like just a little tiny bit. ::evil grin:: lol
5. I have a strong faith.
6. Books, lol Sorry but books are a huge part of my life and I think they're wonderful.
7. My babies! lol Two cats, dog, frog, rabbit lol (And soon to be either a mouse or an Oscar [fish] lol)
8. Growing up homeschooled. I think it's the best way to be honestly. Especially now when it's easy to find a homeschool organization for sports, plays, social activities.
9. Being on a carnival. You see a lot of the world, and you learn a lot about people. The most important thing I think you learn is that you can never, EVER, rely on how a person looks.
10. And last would be all the hard knocks I've had. I think without them I'd be much less sympathetic/empathetic and have a narrow view on life.
9. Nine strange things you do. (Doesn't have to be a habit but something you consider "unique" to you.)
1. I chew on my tongue. lol I know that's weird lol
2. I bite the edges of my fingers when I'm nervous. Next to the nail lol (Never bitten my nails though.)
3. When I'm anxious I knock my knees together when I'm sitting lol
4. I always have to suck the salt off of sunflower seeds or peanuts before I open them. Even if it's too salty lol
5. HAVE to eat fries first. Not ALL of them, but all that I'd eat without getting full.
6. Love love love eating peanut butter or Nutella with a spoon. I know it's gross, but I can't help it lol
7. Have to sleep with three pillows stacked to the right of my head lengthwise, one over my head, one under, and one to my life that I snuggle lol Can't stand feeling alone in a bed.
8. When I eat goldfish crackers, I have to split them in two lengthwise or bite the tails off before I eat it lol
9. I LOVE venison but I cry thinking about a deer dying lol
8. Name eight things you always wanted for Christmas (or your birthday) that you never got.
1. When I was about... seven I wanted a (don't laugh) My Size Barbie lol BADLY lol Never got one lol
2. A wooden Scrabble set. You know the ones that have the solid base, with drawers, etc. Never got it lol
3. Monopoly set like the Scrabble one above lol
4. BOOKS! I NEVER GET BOOKS! lol
5. B&N gift card lol 90% of my family doesn't know me at all so I usually end up with some gift that's SO not me that would have bought me a book or two lol I prefer the books to say what my aunt got me last year which was a fiber optic mushroom and fairy lamp. Um... I'm not eight anymore lol Please lol Gimme some credit lol You've seen my room, I don't have neon colors lol
6. A blizzard. I know, really really weird, but I always wanted to have one Christmas with a real reason NOT to go see my family lol I'm sorry but I like spending it with my parents not extended family that could care less if I'm there lol Plus c'mon, it's lots and lots of snow for me to go diving into with mutter butter lol
7. No stress. So far I have NEVER had a non-stressed Christmas. Ever.
8. And the past two Christmases it's been Will. I'd really love to spend it with him.
7. Name seven things that you remember vividly from childhood. (Can be a toy, a memory of a holiday or event, something that makes you happy.)
1. Catching frogs with Patrick and Austin then fighting about who caught the most lol
2. Same as above, only fireflies.
3. Staying up late for Fourth of July fireworks, complete with my mother's cooking of slow cooked beer marinated brisket, homemade barbecue sauce, grilled corn (the good kind, with husks), potato salad, baked beans, veggies, and super sweet, super juicy watermelon.
4. New Years with Patrick and Austin lol Nothing was more fun then running away squealing with laughter when we lit a firecracker lol
5. Summer thunderstorms in Texas. The way the air would smell and taste like sugar afterward. The puddles, the way everything turned so green, the cool air. Droplets clinging to the wildflower blossoms.
6. Playing make believe with Patrick and Austin. We'd all get so into it we'd end up in imaginary fights that we wouldn't forgive each other for weeks lol
7. Staying with Bill and Katherine. Bill would take me fishing and Katherine would give me little piano lessons, and let me help in the garden and kitchen. They always treated me like their own granddaughter. I love them to this day, even though I haven't seen them since I was little.
6. What six questions would you ask if you could get an answer?
1. What's my purpose?
2. Why did so many bad things happen to the people I love? Was it their lesson or mine?
3. Why are people so intolerant of others? What are they afraid of?
4. How come people that have so much, give so little, while people that have so little, give so much?
5. What is it that I'm really meant to do?
6. Why do we focus more on drugs and procedures to make us look better, rather than spending the money to cure fatal or crippling diseases?
5. Five names that you would consider renaming yourself.
1. Katherine.
2. Evelyn.
3. Wynne.
4. Shannah.
(If you dig down to the original name and meaning you might find it funny I like this name.)
5. Cherie. (No idea why lol)
4. Four movies you can always watch, no matter what.
1. Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
2. The Village
3. Any Pink Panther movie lol
4. The Philadelphia Story
3. Three reasons that you believe in your faith.
1. My parents raise me to be a Christian lol
2. It makes me feel good.
3. It makes me feel safe, like there's a reason.
2. Two things you want to do before you die.
1. Have a family.
2. Travel someplace completely different than anywhere I've been.
1. One thing that always makes you smile.
The only fail proof thing I can think of is Will kissing me...

I like to eat peanut butter from a spoon too. I can't buy peanut butter any more, though, because I tend to like to eat the whole jar in a matter of days. Bad for keeping weight off.
Your purpose is is to glorify God. Have you read the Purpose Driven Life? Very insightful; will help you define your purpose here.
