Haha, just kidding! I’ve been re-watching the series, though, so ya know.
Anyways. It’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it?
And the thing is, yeah, I kind of forgot about blogging. Don’t get me wrong! I still love reading others’ blogs, and I still do, I just don’t comment and like much anymore ’cause I’m kinda lazy that way. I’ve also been invested a lot more in art and my art instagram, so that’s mostly where you can find me.
Maybe one day I’ll get back into blogging. Who knows. Thank you for helping me make blogging such a fun experience! It’s been a really big part of my life, and I’m really grateful for all the people I’ve met through it as well as all the cool new things I learned. Thank you for your support, the kind comments, and all the wonderful interactions. Stay lovely, my dear Hoodians!
Good day, my lovely Hoodians! I hope you all fare well! I’m revamping my blog design right now, so my site might be kinda all over the place as I mess around with ideas and such, but the end result will hopefully look a lot better than my old design! 😀 Let’s move on to […]
Hey, guys! I’ve been seeing some “Day in Life” posts around, and I decided I really wanted to do one, so here we are. 😉 Just a heads up, the photos are wayyy over edited, but a lot of the photos were fuzzy (I think I used the wrong lens) and the only way they looked decent was to put a heavy filter on them. XDD Let us jump in, then.
random photo of my sunflower garden 🙂
First I wake wake up (of course XD) at around 8:45 or 9:00. Pretty early considering I stayed up REALLY late the night before. Hehehe. Anyways, first I usually get my iPad mini and check my notifications (mail, instagram, WordPress, etc.), which is something I try not to do during the week, but I decided to be more leniant to myself on Saturdays. 😉
Next, I say my morning prayers, which I always mean to say before I do anything else, but sometimes I forget and have to do them later. Fortunately, this time I remembered after doing only one thing. 😀
I then went to get the camera, but when I got to the bag, the camera didn’t have a card, which I looked around for. I eventually found it in a drawer after my mom told me where it was, but theeeen, get this, the battery was dead!! HA. *eye twitches* I then walked around the house for like ten minutes looking for it only to have my dad point it out plugged into a wall, obvious to all. So then I waited for it to charge and postponed my breakfast. Y’all know I love breakfast, so that’s how much I love you guys. 💛 XD
Ok, so I finally got breakfast. I had raisin brand with strawberries for the sake of aesthetic, and I’ll be honest, strawberries and raisin brand DO NOT go well together. 😂 So I just ate them separately and then I ate the raisin brand.
During breakfast, my siblings randomly started playing Triominoes, so I joined in. XD
After breakfast, at around 10:40, I read my scriptures. The front of my scripture notebook says, “Lights will guide you home,” which I think is very fitting for the scriptures. I didn’t realize how late it had gotten in the morning, so I read half a chapter since it was already pretty long. I then got ready for the day (brushing my teeth, get dressed, fix hair, etc.).
Why look! It’s a Danielle in her wild habitat. Also, yes, I still have this shirt from my profile pic in 2016.
Saturday is pretty much the only day I truly get off from routines in general, so it’s the only day I have time to deep clean. XD I started by making my bed and just kind of put stuff away gradually. I also cleaned my bathroom. Well, actually I cleaned my sink and then I ate lunch.
For lunch I had some leftover potato wedges, a quesadilla, and cantaloupe slices. There was left over fried chicken, which my family ate, but those gave me really bad cramps and nausea the night before, so, *laughs nervously* best I stay away. XD
After lunch I cleaned my shower and vacuumed my bedroom.
Finally, at roughly 2:00, mine chores were finished and I could travel upstairs to draw and watch youtube.
I also watched Heartland on Netflix, because, well, why not. 😂
Soon, I went back downstairs and read The Lord of the Rings for a bit. I rewatched the movies a few weeks a go and I don’t know why I never finished the books? They are AMAZING, and I still plan on re-reading The Hobbit too.
At 5:30, for dinner we had spaghetti. I didn’t take a picture because I got lazy, but I assume most of y’all are very familiar with spaghetti and a side of squash. XD
After dinner my family had family scripture study and we started our monthly fast. I then went back upstairs to look for some fantasy writing prompts and such, but I ended up looking at super emotional stories on Pinterest. I guess that counts as my weekly sob time. XD
Shower tiiiime! I did a blackhead treatment thingie first, then I showered, and then I did my wellness routine majigger. I guess that’s what its called. :p It’s basically just lots of lotion, coconut oil, and chapstick to keep my skin moisturized. 😌 Do y’all recognize those socks? I literally forgot I had them for a few weeks, but then I remembered and they’re so comfyyy. Also, I put my hairbrush in this picture, but then I remembered that I don’t actually brush my hair after I shower in the evening because it makes my hair dry super fluffy and bleck, so please just ignore it. XD
clean bedroom picture that looked awkward where it was supposed to go in this post XD
All ready for bed at 8:43 in my snuggly pajamas (I nearly accidentally spelled it “pajajamas” XDD) and freshly brushed teeth, I curled back up on my bed to read LOTR. I read for a little while, watched some Studio C with my dad and my brother, had family prayer, wrote in my gratitude, and head to bed. Buenas noches, mis chiquitas!! ❤
I hope y’all enjoyed this post! Lemme know in the comments if there are any more posts you would like to see! I’ve also started working on a new blog design, because, haha, it’s way overdue. XD Stay lovely!
Hi guys! I’m sorry I didn’t post for April, but since I’m posting so early this month, I might be able to get in a second post for this month! I’m thinking about re-doing my blog design again soon, as well as making my post more around my life and less of lists and stuff because I know personally that that can get kinda boring. XD Now, shall we jump into this awesome announcement?
Today’s post is really exciting (!!!) because I’m going to be announcing a project that multiple bloggers, especially Chloë, have been working for quite some time. 😄
“The Hope Project was created to make people smile, to bring them hope, and to provide a safe and happy spot on the internet, even in the midst of horrible things.
We are not licensed health care professionals, thus any tips on anxiety and depression and such are only what we, the team, have learned from experience. If you need help, please, please consider reaching out to one of the following resources:

The Hope Project is a blog where posts will be shared about showing kindness to others and for yourself. All of us are so excited to create a spot where you can feel safe and get some comfort in this crazy world. It’s still a work in progress to get everything set up and such, but we’re getting there. 😀 I hope y’all are as excited about this as I am!
Make sure to check out the blog (link above) as well as the team’s blogs and introductory posts for more info (which I will link right here! :D):
Hey guys! The world has definitely been going through some crazy times right now. It actually hasn’t been to different for me except I can’t go to the library and we have to have church at home. I will admit, being kept in one space for such long time with the same things to do over an over again has been pretty frustrating, but I decided to do something about it. I made myself a list of things to do besides my normal after school activities to help get my creative juices going. 😀 These were slightly edited to fit y’all as well as me. 😀
(this is what I want to try baking 😋)
Bake a new treat for your family
Deep clean your room and bathroom
Paint with chalk outside
Cook dinner for your parents
Go on a bike ride
Plan an event for the future (In my case, my birthday party. :D)
Write in your journal (planner, calendar, bujo, etc.)
Draw a random object
Message to chats you haven’t been on in a while
Work on blog designs
Garden (I finally planted my sunflower garden! :D)
Read a book suggested by a friend
Meditate or just think in a pretty place
Outline or write a writing project/novel
Go for a jog at golden hour (trust me, it makes a difference ;D)
Create iPhone (or any phone :p) backgrounds
FaceTime a friend or family member far away
Read a non-fiction bookabout a subject that interests you
Design a set of clothes based off a single object or place
Try a new art medium
Clean random room in your house (yes, maybe even a sibling’s room)
Craft bedroom decorations
Read and study your scriptures
Do a mass puzzle (by yourself or with a sibling)
And to close it off, here’s something I wrote for myself after I’d completed my list:
“You don’t always have to draw basics, exercise from the same routine, look at social media, and watch Netflix and Youtube in your free time. Yes, complete the important things first, but that only takes a little bit of your time if you don’t dilly-dally. Think outside the normal. When you find something, sit down and do it. Don’t let yourself get distracted and don’t wait for the weekend to do it. There are so many things to do that you can only do in this life.” ☁︎
*Zooms in on spinny chair* Why, hello, hello, hello, my fabulous Hoodians! I know, I know, I’m not really a book blogger. I’m a lifestyle blogger, but… reading is huge part of my lifestyle so HA. Here we are. XD
I really wanted to post about some of my favorite books because, well, there are a lot. XD But these are the ones that left me shook, and honestly, I would recommend any of these books to anyone because they are incredible. So let’s hop in, shall we? (These are in no particular order, except for the last one. I saved the best for last. 😉 ) Oh! And at the end are some honorable mentions aka books I really enjoy and desperately love but don’t quite make the cut. 😉
All of these are relatively clean except for a little bit of romance (nothing super dodgy) and language, but I would check with your parents to make sure it’s ok for you to read these if you decide to. 😀
Invictusby Ryan Graudin: *sharp intake of breath* The end. The eeend. 😩 Why are the endings of good books always so crippling yet so hopeful??? This book left me so confused (the good ones always do XDD,) but, heck, it was so good and Gram and Imogen are my ship. 😍 (Seriously though, they’re the most adorable people in the whole world.) This book is an incredible mix of sci-fi and time travel, with a well built world and adorable characters. 😍
Listening for Lions by Gloria Whelan: Listening for Lions is such a lovely and sad novel. It’s technically for middle grade, but I still enjoy reading it so I don’t care. It just has this amazing aesthetic that I will never not love. The beginning is set in Africa, which is really cool and helped me have a different aspect on a lot of things. 😍 Some of the characters I honestly hate and are kind of horrible to the main character, Rachel, but she handles everything with such admirable much grace. Definitely a high recommend and favorite for me. 🙂
Skyward by Brandon Sanderson: *cue internal screaming* Me loves this book. 😱😍😱 When I first started it, I was kinda like uuuuugh because the main character, Spensa, was so extra in a really bloodthirsty way. XDDD Anyways, turns out it was JUST her (thank goodness), and her character arc was actually really interesting. Also, her and Jorgen are just great. 😂 I couldn’t help but be pretty obsessed with this book when I finished it (You know that obsessed where you check every single hashtag to do with it on Instagram and search up fan art and memes on Tumblr and Pinterest excessively? And it’s literally the only thing you can think about? Yeah. That kind of obsessed. Oh, and I did a fan art of Spensa. You can check that out on my art instagram @doodles.by.danielle. ;p).
The False Prince by Jennifer A. Nielson: Daaang this book is good. I did not expect the ending AT ALL. Jennifer Nielson did a wonderful job weaving unique fantasy novel. I have never read another fantasy book quite like this and HeCk I love it. Sage is just a fabulous little brat with way too many skills for thievery. XDD This is the first book of a trilogy and honestly one of the few series I’ve read that has later books as good as (or better) the first book.
How to Disappear by Sharon Huss Roat: And finally, the best for last. This book is the only Teen YA book that has left me truly wowed and like I could relate to it. Obviously the deal with her instagram isn’t that relatable, but the way she reacts and feels about people is. The characters are so realistic, and Vicky’s anxiety is written REALLY well. You actually FEEL afraid when she’s afraid, and you FEEL embarrassed when she’s embarrassed. It’s not like you’re afraid for the character or embarrassed for them. You feel exactly what the character feels as if you were in that situation. Yes, there are some cliches, but everyone’s life has a few cliches in it. ;p This book really needs more love because I was shaking when I finished this and I will forever have super high expectations for contemporary novels due to this book. XDD
Other Books I Would Recommend:
Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys
Counting by Sevens by Holly Goldberg Sloan
Heartless by Marissa Meyer
Courage for Beginners by Karen Harrington
Liar and Spy by Rebecca Stead
Jackaby by William Ritter
Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
Esperanza Rising by Pam Muñoz Ryan
Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Fablehaven by Brandon Mull
Dragon Slippers by Jessica Day George
The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate by Jacqueline Kelly
The Rithmatist by Brandon Sanderson
Out of My Mind by Sharon M. Draper
Nest by Esther Ehrlich
The list above could go on and on, but I feel like that’s a good start for now. XD
Also, I meant to post on Valentines Day instead of today with a crêpe recipe (which I’ve tried posting the last two Valentines Days XDD), but we were super busy that week so I never got around to it. Lemme know if you would still like to see that post in a later post! 🙂
I hope y’all enjoyed this post! Tell me in the comments if you’ve read any of these or if you have some suggestions for me! 😀 Stay lovely, dear Hoodians!

Wowsers. My decade has ended. What a cool decade. 😉 In the end though, time passes, and there are plenty of decades ahead of us all, so it will be ok. 🙂
Guess what y’all! It’s 2020 and my two year blogiversary! YEEHAW! I know, I know. I posted on here, like, four times last year. I want to do better this year, and I will! I was so happy to see the positive feedback on my last post, by the way! Thank you guys so much. I haven’t been active on here in so long, and I guess I just forgot how much fun the blogosphere is. 😄
I’m back with twenty lessons I learned from 2019. I decided to make them more straightforward this time so no extra commentary is needed. Last years post was SUPER long, and I didn’t want to do that this year so it doesn’t seem as daunting. :p
Let us hop on in, shall we? XD
One: It’s OK to cry every once and a while.
Two: The world is much too beautiful to be seen through a negative lens.
Three: Some forms of pain are good for you to experience and understand.
Four: Learning cannot be accomplished by passive waiting.
Five: Things are not usually as bad as you make them out to be.
Six: Change is essential for personal growth. Trying to prevent it can only hurt us.
Seven: Be willing to listen when others want to share their opinions and give positive input.
Eight: It’s always easiest to address a issue at the time of the issue.
Nine: There is no end to problems in this life.
Ten: Some things aren’t worth fighting over.
Eleven: Curiosity is sometimes best left unsatisfied.
Twelve: Only look for faults in yourself if you intend to fix or accept them.
Thirteen: Strive to be better because better will always be there for
Fourteen: Bad things are bound to happen, but we shouldn’t let them stop us from being happy.
Fifteen: We often don’t realize how stupid a decision is until after we have made the decision. 🤷♀️
Sixteen: You don’t always have to face responsibility head and immediately.
Seventeen: If you don’t know what a word means, don’t say it.
Eighteen: Never insult or put down another person’s beliefs, even if you don’t agree with them.
Nineteen: Do not take your own promises lightly.
Twenty: Even butterflies have blemishes.
There you go! I hope that I can apply these this year. I know some of them sound harsh, but I couldn’t really word them to sound softer. 🙂 I can’t say they’re all exactly truth either, as my wisdom is limited. XD That’s just how I needed them to be for me.
I hope everyone’s year starts off well. 😀 I’ll be going with my mom on a trip to drop my sister off at college. Not the best for me, but I know it’s the best for my sister. 🙂 I am excited to see some cool things on our trip and fly on a plane for the first time. 😬 It’s all gonna be good. 🙂
The sun will rise and we will try again. ☀︎

(Late) Merry Christmas my lovely Hoodians! It has been-haha-a VERY long time since I last posted, but you know what? That’s ok. :p
Anyways, today I bring you my gift haul (I didn’t want to use that word, but I could unfortunately not find a suitable synonym, so, alas, here we are) of my 2019 Christmas! Just a disclaimer I am definitely not trying to brag or anything. I really love reading blog posts like this, and I figured I’d try one out and see what happens.
Quick announcement before we jump in! I got an art instagram! Actually, I got it several months a go, but you can find me @doodles.by.danielle or at the link at the bottom of my homepage. My art isn’t the most amazing thing you’ll ever see, but I am proud of it and trying to improve. Hopefully you’ll enjoy what I share as I strive to improve my work and become a better artist.
Let us commence. 😉
Firstly! My family did a dirty Santa on Christmas Eve with some little knickknacks, and I got a jar of cream nail polish. I don’t really paint my nails that much, but I’m sure it will come to use eventually. :p
In my stocking I got this cool bear claw self-scratcher thing. I also got a pack of juicy fruit gum, my favorite flavor. Also, my little brother got me these really good juicy fruit, tropical packs, and if you look at the photo closely, you can see I’ve already opened one. XD
From my mom, I got me these reeeeally silky, soft socks infused with shea, and they feel SO good. I know because I just put them back in the packaging after wearing them so the photo would look more… actually, I probably didn’t need to do that now that I think about it. XD I guess I wanted to show you what the packaging said. So now you know what it says. 😉
My mom also got me this cool headband that I was really confused about when I first opened it but now understand and am super excited to try out. 😀 She and my dad then gave me $100 dollars for clothes (that’s what the little red tag says on the back) , and I am REALLY excited because there have been some clothes I’ve been wanting for ages.
My sister got me pineapple-mango candle, and it smells SO GOOD. Not kidding. I wish I could let y’all smell it. :p She also got me these cute heart shaped tacks that are now pinned on my bulletin board, and they match my room perfectly. 😄 Thank you, Nicole. ❤
AAHHHH! Aren’t they gorgeous?!? My dad got me the beautiful screenplays for the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. I love Harry Potter, so I’m slowly building up my book collection for it. :p Just one Christmas at a time. >:) I’m actually surprised he got me these because my dad isn’t a huge fan of buying books when you can get them for free at the library. XD
😍😍😍 My grandma got me this über fluffy sweater that I am actually in love with and am so excited to use. It’s so sooooft and I want to wear it every day despite the constant heat where I live. *melts into fluff* It will very be useful for when I go on trips this winter, though, so I am excited for that. 😀
Lastly, my parents got me this lovely suitcase, and I’m VERY excited to have it. I haven’t had a suitcase for the past year, so this is nice because now I don’t have to use our really large duffel bags or my not quite big enough backpack for a three day trip. XD
That’s everything. I hope you guys enjoyed this post. 😀 I also hope everyone had an amazing Christmas, and if you don’t celebrate Christmas, I hope you had an amazing day anyways. ❤
I would love to hear about your Christmas and what you got, so don’t be afraid to tell in the comments.
I do have some hopefully good posts coming up, so stay tuned for those. I’m going to try to post at least once a month next year, but no guarantees. 🙂
Hello, my lovelies! I should win an award for longest, weirdest title. XD But yes, today’s post is all about breakfast.
Today, I will convince you that breakfast should be the most important and best part of your day. In other words, I really like breakfast and I want all of you to like breakfast too. XD
Why Should I Eat Breakfast?
I have a lot of public schooled friends who skip breakfast either because they don’t feel like it, they forget about it, or they don’t have time for it.
Skipping breakfast is actually really unhealthy.
Why?
You’ve been sleeping about eight hours. Your body fasts while you sleep. It receives no nutrients except from food you may have eaten before bed. The thing is, your body is still running a lot of its functions while you sleep, but it’s doing this without the consistent nourishment it receives during the day. When you wake up, your brain and the rest of your body are pretty tired. Breakfast is the first opportunity you get to gain nutrients, so your brain will get pretty angry if you skip out on it. #hangry
Yes, dear friends. That is one of the reasons you’re so tired in the morning.
What Should I Eat For Breakfast?
It’s easiest for your body to turn carbs into energy, so your brain pretty much runs on carbs. When it runs out of carbs, it runs on fats. When it runs out of fats, it runs on protein. When it runs out of protein, it runs on anything your body can provide. When it runs out of that, you die.
So, kids, eat carbs for breakfast.
You actually want all three macronutrients (carbs, fat, and protein) in your breakfast, but you especially want carbs.
When it comes to carbs, eat whole grains. That petty white bread will not benefit whatsoever. Waffles (recipe later in the post), pancakes, toast, fruit breads, whole grain cereals, and granola are all pretty substantial. Also, frozen waffles and pancakes shouldn’t be considered real food because they have just as much nutrition as white bread and can cause cancer, so you’re not really doing yourself any favors when you eat them. *shrug*
No, bacon is not the right kind of fat if that’s what you’re thinking of. Yes, fat is essential for you to live, but you’ll want healthy fats inside foods such as: certain oils, avocados (it’s like a healthy version of butter, but don’t eat to much or it won’t be much different from butter XD), dairy products, and nuts. So, you can spread avocado or cheese on toast (bam! two birds in one stone), put nuts in your cereal or pancakes, eat yogurt on your granola, or just drink glass of milk with whatever you’re eating. And no, just because I said dairy products does not mean you can have ice cream for breakfast. (I wish, but my parents would never let me.)
Protein is usually something you can skip as long as you get it in later meals, but it’s still a good thing to include. Protein can be found in a lot of foods I already mentioned, but you can also have eggs or (I couldn’t refrain) bacon and sausage (just for a change-up from the healthy stuff XD).
When Should I Eat Breakfast?
I’ll eat breakfast whenever I please, thank you very much. But for the sake of actually answering the question, it’s probably best to eat it at least two hours before lunch. This gives your body enough time to digest it before you stuff it with more food. >:)
Now For the Yummy Part!
WAFFLES. WAFFLES. WAFFLES. WAFFLES. WAFFLES.
I love waffles.
So. Much.
As you can probably tell, waffles are my favorite thing to have for breakfast. So, I hereby bring you this yummylicious, crispy, and fabulous waffle recipe that my dad has made for me and my siblings every Wednesday since I can remember. This recipe can easily be doubled, tripled, and quadrupled, and it can also be used for pancakes.
Ingredients:
1 heaping cup of flour (You can use all purpose or whole wheat. Do NOT use self-rising.)
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
1 cup milk
Instructions:
Step 1: Thoroughly stir flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl.
Step 2: Add egg, oil, and milk. Stir batter until smooth.
Step 3: Pour batter into waffle iron. Close iron and cook until golden brown (or in my case, brown. I like them super crispy. XDD).
Step 4: Take out of iron and serve with desired toppings. 😉 (I usually just eat mine with syrup, but I also love strawberries on them. Who doesn’t?) Recipe makes four to six waffles.
I hope y’all enjoyed this post! I definitely enjoyed writing it. Have a fabulous day, lovely Hoodians!

Hullo, my lovely Hoodians! I would normally apologize for not posting in ages, but at this point I think y’all are used to me posting only once and a while. Anyways, I was nominated for these awards awhile ago, and I decided it’s been long enough since I last posted. On that note, shall we commence?
Covah nominated me for the Awesome Blogger Award, so thank you so much, Covah!
The Rules:
Thank the person/blogger who nominated you.
Tag your post with #awesomebloggeraward
Answer all the questions given to you
Nominate at least 5 bloggers and inform them of their nomination
Give them 10 new questions to answer
The Questions:
When and why did you start blogging? I started blogging in 2015, so about three and a half years ago. I think I started because my sister had created a blog and I thought it was cool, so I made one too. XDDD Anyways, now I do it because I enjoy it. 😄
What is your current mood? (using a color!) Ooh, that’s tough. Well, it depends on the day, I think right now I’m in a pale pink mood because I’m in a cheerful and productive mood. 😀
If you could only read one thing for the rest of life, what would it be? GASP, you dare ask such a thing! *faints* Probably the scriptures even if I don’t read them as much as I should, they’re still the best books! 😄
What will you do to help change the world? I want to help make modest a trend. It makes me uncomfortable and sad that girls are so willing to display their bodies in often inappropriate ways by wearing immodest clothing. I want to be a fashion designer, and I plan to only design clothes that fit to good standards.
What is your favorite historical event? This is a toughie, but probably Joseph Smith’s vision in The Sacred Grove. 😀
What is your favorite school subject? Probably history. Mostly because it’s my easiest subject and I’m so over school by now. 😜 However, I have been enjoying Geometry a little more lately *gasp* as I’ve gotten further into the book.
Do you play an instrument? If so, which one/s? Haha, nope. XD I used to want to sing, and before that I tried violin, and before that I tried piano, but by now I’m just done with learning music skills.
Have you ever been or are vegan or vegetarian? No. I like meat waaayyy too much. XD
What do you want to be when you grow up? As said earlier, I want to be a fashion designer. 😀
If you could tell your past self something, what would it be? Take correction as something to help you, not to offend you.
The Nominations:
To be honest, I can’t think of a single blogger I know who hasn’t done this (also I’m too mentally drained right now to deal with so much linking). XD So, instead of nominating specific bloggers, I nominate the first five people who like this post. 😀

The Rules:
Acknowledge the blogger who nominated you for this award
Answer 11 questions the blogger gave you
Give 11 random facts about yourself
Nominate 11 blogs and notify them
Give them 11 questions to answer
The Questions:
What is the outfit that you are quick to grab in the morning? Whichever jeans I have that are clean, a t-shirt, and an oversized sweater. 😉
Do you have a dream that you hope to achieve? To become a haute couture designer. ☺️
What is your favorite season? Winter, for sure, but autumn is a pretty close runner up. 😉
Which do you prefer: milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate? Milk chocolate.😋 Dark chocolate is pretty delicious, depending on the percentage of cocoa, but I don’t like it in large amounts. I’m not particularly huge on white chocolate. It tastes a lil funny to me. 😣
What is your favorite thing to do during your free time? Read and draw. I’ve been drawing a LOT lately. Maybe I’ll post some sketches here, soon. 😄
How do you deal with stress and anxiety? This is probably not a suggested method, but I ignore it. XD I push whatever is making me anxious or stressed into the back of my mind, focus on something else, and try to forget about it. Once I’m approached with the thing making me anxious or stressed, I just get it over with and go with the flow. If I need to stop and take breather, I do so. I also tell myself that nothing is as bad as it seems, which is true.
What is the biggest lesson that you learned in 2018? Hmmm. Probably this: recognize the faults in yourself before you recognize the faults of others. This is super important to me because it has helped me a lot with personal growth. It also motivates me to not be so eager and direct in pointing out other people’s faults when I have plenty of faults myself.
Is there a particular song that you love right now? There are several. :p Here’s a few: Dying For You ~ Otto Knows (ft. Lindsey Stirling & Alex Aris); Feel So Close ~ Calvin Harris (cover by Megan Nicole); Annie ~ A R I Z O N A; Red Ribbon ~ Madilyn Bailey; Supercut ~ Lorde; and a few others. ;p
What subject/class do you struggle with most in school? Probably chemistry. Yeah, definitely chemistry. XDDD
Are you organized? I think I’m pretty organized. My spaces are pretty tidy most of the time. 😉
Are you a morning person or a night owl? A bit of both? I can stay up late, but I also don’t mind waking up. I think I’m more night owl, though.
The Random Facts:
Just earlier I got a whisk stuck inside a blender! Yay!
People used to think my sister and I were twins. (btw, we’re not XD)
I’m learning to speak Spanish.
My favorite dessert is ice cream, but donuts come second. 😉

It actually hasn’t been to different for me except I can’t go to the library and we have to have church at home. I will admit, being kept in one space for such long time with the same things to do over an over again has been pretty frustrating, but I decided to do something about it. I made myself a list of things to do besides my normal after school activities to help get my creative juices going. 😀 These were slightly edited to fit y’all as well as me. 😀
Lemme know if you would still like to see that post in a later post! 🙂
