Questions:

1. Who is someone you admire? (Famous or not) I admire James and my mom the most. They are two most important people in my life(not counting Alex). And I can't imagine my life without them(:

2. What’s something that’s happened that’s changed your perspective about things? I think it would be my mothers cancers, it showed me that you have no idea when your life will end or if you'll face life changing medical conditions. Another would be James' deployment. I've learned what it means to love even if you aren't with you 365 days a year. 

3. If you could be an animal, what would you be? Ooo, that's tough. I would say a horse or a tiger. A horse because of the power and agility they have in themselves. And are just so graceful and beautiful. And a tiger because it's pretty and eats things lolol.

4. Favorite flavor, of anything Vanilla and Strawberry. And sometimes peppermint, depending on what it is. 

5. Random fact about yourself I'm from New York and want to move back. 

6. Favorite song right now ohh goodness.. that's a toughy. I really like Crash My Party by Luke Bryan right now(:

7. If you could live anywhere, where would you be? Germany or Mexico. I know they're completely different. But when I went to Gemany two years ago I fell inlove with everything about it. And Mexico is like a second home to me. I go and do mission work there and my perfect ideal Sunday is church at Casa Hogar Douglas with James and then spending the afternoon playing with children and doing projects to better the conditions they live in(:

8. Have you introduced anyone to Tumblr? Yesss! A few people actually!(:

9. Pet peeve Cabinet doors being open for no reason and a hypocrite. There's more but that's the major ones.

10. Something you want to accomplish Short term: Getting this wedding planned and passing all my classes with an A. Long term: My Bachelors or Masters in Elementary Education and raising a family with James(:

My Questions to you:

Who is your favorite musician or band?

How did you meet your best friend?

Favorite subject in school?

How many kids do you want to have in life?

Favorite Christmas movie?

Coffee or tea? 

Do you enjoy shopping on Black Friday? Why or why not?

Do you have an iPhone or Android?

Biggest accomplishment to date?

I would think that a homemade envelope would be okay! I would double check with the post office first!(: And I personally use notebook paper, just because I prefer it and so does James. But I think either one would work!(: 

Most of the time when I reply to people it looks funny and I can never get it to come out right and then I get all flustered because it isn’t working and then I give up. I reply to you in my mind though! (:

I'm mainly talking about people on my feed (you know who you are!) who are constantly complaining about how awkward/lonely/socially inept/what-have-you they feel. 

I offer sympathy, a willing ear and occasionally super-absorbent shoulder pads to cry on, and instead of a "Hey... someone's talking to me!" they keep posting negative shit.

Hey! I’m personally not involved in a site, just because between my fiance and all my friends that getting ready to deploy I send enough mail out to Soldiers and Marines lol. But I know a lot of people us adopt a soldier :) I’ve read and heard pretty good stuff about them! (: 

In fact, I received the most precious parcel from a penpal. And after receiving a letter yesterday from the North, I feel very loved. The music on the mix CD is magical. I'm not sure I would call it a surprise though...I anxiously await things in the mail every day, ha!

I got to see two of my best friends today too, so there's that.

Complete with quote, pressed flower, questions, facts about self, page from a lovely story, and a letter. Not to mention the gorgeous envelope.

Some people know how to penpal the right way.
